We're losing hundreds of thousands of people, and this has been happening for a long time now, and we shouldn't be where we are. And that's what we tell parents all the time too. It can happen right in your own home, in the safest of places.
Imagine being able to save lives just by spreading awareness. In this powerful episode of 'Recovery Survey', host Brett Morris brings together two passionate advocates, Mike Fiore from Inspire2Inspire and Andrea Thomas from Voices for Awareness, to tackle the pressing issue of fentanyl poisoning. With drug use on the rise, particularly during the pandemic, the need for education about the dangers of fentanyl has never been more critical.
Mike and Andrea share their personal experiences and insights, shedding light on why fentanyl poisoning is a more accurate term than overdose. They also discuss practical steps like using fentanyl test strips to check drugs and the importance of having naloxone available in schools. This episode goes beyond just facts and figures; it delves into the human stories behind the statistics. Both guests emphasize that addiction can touch anyone, anywhere, breaking down the stigma that often surrounds this issue.
They urge listeners to get involved, whether by donating to organizations like Facing Fentanyl and Voices for Awareness or simply by talking to friends and family about the dangers of fentanyl. If you're looking for an episode that combines heartfelt stories with actionable advice, this one is a must-listen. It's not just about understanding the problem; it's about being part of the solution.
