Better Proof - The Government Is Lying About DRUGS

The following discussion is for the endorphin system, whose receptors accept endorphins, opiates, and indirectly alcohol. However there are other routes to dopamine production. But the drugs we have the most trouble with are opiates and alcohol so to keep things simple I'll focus on those.

When it comes to the endorphin system the normal human condition is for the system to have some empty receptors. If the system has all full receptors it grows more. The DEA calls this growth of receptors "addiction". It is not. But we will get to that in a bit. The receptors in the endorphin system are called pain receptors because when enough receptors are empty you feel pain. But it is a continum from bliss - all receptors full, to extreme pain - all receptors empty. The normal human condition is some empty receptors - mild depression - so you can tell if something good happens. More receptors empy causes discomfort and depression. Do something! Then heavy depression. Then pain followed by screaming pain. Do something RIGHT NOW!!! Pain is a continum. And in that vein fillng an empty pain receptor reduces pain - even if it feels like something else (depression).

PTSD is a disorder that amonts to a continuous leak to the endorphin system. The initial trauma can last a lifetime and that means the receptor leak can be long lasting as well. What do people do who feel depressed? They look for relief. People in chronic pain (empty receptors) chronically take pain relievers (opiates, alcohol). Addiction is not caused by drugs. It is caused by pain. What is caused by drugs is Habituation. If you keep your receptors full by continuous drug taking your body will grow more. But that takes weeks and months. Empty receptors is much faster: milliseconds to minutes for the initial trauma and then hours, days, or weeks for the PTSD leak to have an effect. I do have an example.

Dr. Lonny Shavelson found that 70% of female heroin addicts had been sexually abused in childhood.

Drugs fill receptors.
Injury empties receptors. PTSD empties receptors.
Empty receptors are painful.
Filling empty receptors makes you feel good.
Empty receptors create a desire for drugs.
Drugs can not create a desire for drugs.

In America we have a pain problem. A problem with long term pain (PTSD). A problem with child abuse. A problem with soldier and civilian trauma (PTSD). We don't have a Drug problem. That, like Alcohol Prohibition, is a Government caused problem. Denying pain relief is not viable politically or socially or even morally. People will go to great lenghts including defying government to get pain relief.

Other drugs of abuse seem to work similarly but have different pathways. They all affect the dopamine system ultimately.

Donald Trump is a Christian of the Highest Order. He says "Legalize". Which will stop the current abuse of formerly Abused Children.

Addiction, a medical condition, is a crime in America.

Social Problems Caused by Child Abuse.


People in chronic pain chronically take pain relievers. - This is a crime if your pain is not authorized.

I just found this CNN news clip from 2021 : Biden administration drug czar says it’s time to treat drug addiction like a chronic disease.
