Interesting docu on Sky Atlantic about Opioid addiction

Particularly about when given Narcan for an overdose, it creates intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms 😢

Apologies if this has already been discussed

Very interesting documentary. As fans you will be thinking about Prince simultaneously whilst watching it. How tumultuous and all over the place his mind must have been in his last few days?! And nobody acted with real urgency!!

The most difficult things to accept about this whole thing for me:
1.) That he was left unattended that night (makes me angry if I linger on that thought too long).
2.) Help was literally on the way (almost at his door!) when he passed away (learning this was both gut-wrenching and heart-breaking).

This is also a very interesting article about opiates. Finally some legit research data published that should hopefully at least slow down the over prescribing of these drugs.
