There’s Something Wrong With Fentanyl Overdoses

Let’s just hit the ground running with the question, “how do you get Fentanyl?”

That’s a really good question. Before this epidemic, fentanyl overdoses were unheard of. You didn’t even hear about it with the opiod crisis, because fentanyl isn’t normally prescribed.

You might get fentanyl when waking up from a major surgery, that’s about it. It’s not being prescribed.

Are Addicts Choosing Fentanyl?

I’ve had my experience in the drug scene, and all I can say is that no one is doing Fentanyl. Plain and simple. The only person I know doing fentanyl is a person that gets the patches to help with their back and degenerative bone disease.

You don’t get fentanyl on the streets. People aren’t choosing to do it or looking for it. So the main reason they attribute the overdoses to is that someone laced the drug.

Where Does Fentanyl Come From?

No one is growing it or making it in labs like every other drug out there. And doctors aren’t prescribing it, so it’s blamed on Mexico for the influx of fentanyl overdoses, attributing it to product being cut with fentanyl.

This has to be a black market laboratory scheme if anything. Still the fact remains, no one is searching for fentanyl.

We Need to Wisen Up When it Comes to Fentanyl

This is an area where we seriously need to doubt what the news is throwing at us.

Fentanyl is apparently being used as a cutting agent? Bullshit. Add .002 grams of fentanyl to a 1 gram bag and you gave yourself a dead person. Along with no extra profit.

Also, drug dealers don’t cut product with a more potent alternative. Heroin is bad enough, why would a dealer cut the heroin with something 100x more powerful, along with the fact it doesn’t add any weight to the bag because it’s so potent.

Drugs on the Market

There are way too many drugs on the market and people with access to them. Did you know that being a researcher, I can get a license to buy any drug I want through the DEA for just over $300?

There are some standard stipulations that come along with doing it, such as keeping logs and where you can store it, etc. But I can do all the research I want and purchase whatever off the menu?

Hell, I’m down.

I took a gander at the drugs available to be purchased for “research purposes.”

Do you know how many different types of methamphetamine there are? How many combinations pharmaceutically that there are of fentanyl. Hospitals only have a drug test that tests if someone is positive for a drug, they have no clue what formula or concotion that they actually received.

Are Experiments Being Done?

One thing that pops in my head from the amount of different drugs you can have access to if you fit the bill regards the idea of experimentation.

Anyone that has a halfway higher intellect can tell that meth especially is being used to see the performance of people, some with ADHD. It’s one step away from Adderral, but Adderral is OK and meth your super paranoid? Not hardly.

Part of the stipulation on research into drugs is you have to log the patients reaction to the drug you give them.

How often does a drug dealer ask you, “did you like that last shit,” or say, “I’ve got something new for you to try.

You would be surprised in this day and age by who people actually are, who they work for, and what motive they have.

There’s No Reason for Fentanyl Overdoses

Drug dealers don’t have a penny to earn from it. They aren’t in the business of killing their main source of profit, the addict.

So someone tell me what is really going on. I keep my ear to the street hoping there is a solution for people having to die from fentanyl overdoses. We can only pray.
