Former addict: Drugs entrapped him. Luke Thompson full show with Anh Le

In today's testimony we will be 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. Today, we will have Luke Thompson, who started smoking marijuana, but then eventually got hooked onto prescription drugs, that he would do anything and everything to get his hands on the next high. But instead, today he is a Christian who says that Jesus set him free from his crave and need for these opioids. Luke, welcome to the show.
