In today's testimony, we have been talking
about the epidemic of the addiction to prescription level opioids, and what it is doing in our society, and what it does to an individual life. Now, you wouldn't think a pain killer would be anything dangerous, but painkillers now are being used in an illegal way in society because
of the power of this drug to activate the reward or pleasure centers of the brain. This drug is a serious problem because as someone becomes
addicted to the high these pain killers provide, it can lead to addiction despite the consequences of the behaviors used in order to get that next high. The reason why it is so dangerous is because of the unusual overdose numbers that happen with opioid addiction. In our last show
Luke Thomson how the addiction to pain killers really worked in his life, and how many people were hurt through the process, even he hurt himself literally. The drug gripped all of his emotions and motivations. Today, he is going to share how he got set free from this mindless craze for drugs, and how his mind got set free. Luke, welcome back to the show.
