        there are a million reasons why this is SO FUCKED UP but my favorite rn is that using opiates for migraines causes nasty rebound headaches.

      remember: don’t blame the people who are hurting and desperate to not hurt. blame the drug companies for doing fucked up shit like this.

      opiates are A Good Thing. but it sure would be nice if there were more drugs on the market that treat pain in new and interesting ways.
