A new synthetic opiate has killed dozens of European heroin users. Nitazenes, which are up to 300 times more potent than heroin, are increasingly showing up in the continent’s drug supply, sparking fears that they could fuel a surge of overdoses, on par with North America’s fentanyl crisis.

There’s no stopping this, woth the world in trash state that it’s in, inflation through the roof, dreams almost completely unattainable now, shelter is getting impossible to afford, depression rates skyrocketing….politicians just want to focus on the words “drug problem” they don’t want to focus on society problem…..I used opiates for 18 yeaalmofrom 18-36, I’ve come to realize in the past couple years, I never once had a drug problem, what I had was a mental health/depression problem that I medicated with opiates because they work. I don’t have a solution though, but I’ll tell you, it isn’t just telling people to say no. Either way, now that you stopped the heroin, your pretty well fucked.
Europe is far gone with the opioid crisis. Specially in France biggest addicts of all time.
