[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread gives me a whole different understanding of our record young adult overdose rate. It is what comes of undertreated depression, anxiety and trauma—and of living among adults who are as combative and dysregulated and unable to get their adult pants on as people in this thread. Jesus.[/quote] Drugs are over prescribed. We have a culture and now a generation of kids who are prescribed drugs starting from a young age. Why not try other things before going the drug route?[/quote] Because kids with untreated or undertreated mental illness have ready access to self-medication and relatively little impulse control to prevent them from using it. And that stuff has fentanyl in it. This isn't really that hard. If you want a living kid, you do not leave mental health problems undertreated. [/quote]
