[quote=Anonymous]I think for those who become addicted, it’s a mix of genetic predisposition AND mental health. For example, for someone who is depressed, has an anxiety disorder or some other mental health issue, opioids could bring relief from that emotional pain. This is my theory based on personal experience with a very close family member. Her parents were addicts (genetic predisposition?), she was depressed and had serious anxiety and an unstable life, along came a script for opioids to help with some chronic pain she was having...shortly thereafter came the heroin.
