Breakfast of champions!
Breakfast
Mixed batch?
Why have Cheerios when you can shoot heroin?
Instead of bashing the people who are overdosing why don’t you take a step back and realize this is someone’s son or daughter, husband or wife, father or mother… I can tell the people in these comments have never had to love someone with addiction… instead of bashing & writing hateful joking comments you can pray for this person that they find their way out of addiction and get help.
Mich Elle ?
Mich Elle for those “people” that takes actual effort when it’s so much easier to be a judgmental douche than to be actually human
Mich Elle , not on this page?
Mich Elle agree
With you all the way. ??
Not judgemental when you watch family members steal your mother’s hard earned money, pawn her belongings, etc just for their next fix. It’s a lifestyle choice and a selfish one
Gia Guidera it is a disease. Proven
Gia Guidera let me post this here, too.
Gia Guidera No, cancer is not a lifestyle choice. However, my mother’s lifestyle choice gave her cancer. She smoked two packs of cigarettes a day and developed small cell lung cancer. And she wasn’t a nice person either. She was known to lie to others and had a fair number of people who would not associate with her.
By your logic, I suppose my sister and I should’ve skipped chemo for her, and hospice treatment when she died. After all, she did this to herself. Hell, she died anyway, what was the point?
Mich Elle and not bitch on a FACEBOOK page about something that isn’t going to change lol they’re stillllll going to give free narcan whether people bitch about it or not
Mich Elle very well said . I feel for any family who has an addict in their life. It’s a hard battle for everyone
April Marie while non medical nor mental experts say “addiction is not a disease because I say it is. And I just know” still-spout their nonsense
Mich Elle I think people are just so desensitized to it anymore. There are at least five posts a day about overdoses. Yes it’s sad, yes I feel bad for the family of these people, but these people who are doing this have to want to get help and even at that point chances of them staying clean is very low. Something bigger has to be done but no one knows what that is and people are to fast to say not my problem. Until it’s their kid or loved on. It’s sad
*Yawn*
Sad world
Damn narcan free for junkies. How about free insulin for diabetics or free housing for homeless veterans?
Gia Guidera invalid comparison. Since big pharma controls insulin prices while narcan is state controlled for a fraction of insulin. Bitch to the pharmaceutical vampires about it
Gia Guidera
Scott A Barnes i have
Gia Guidera still an irrelevant comparison. No matter what memes you post
Scott A Barnes i didn’t post that
Stupid junkies do this to themselves
They know damn well what they’re doing
No sympathy here and I have relatives who are drug addicts
Waste of resources
Gia Guidera
I hope and pray that one of your friends or loved one Never needs it. Your whole life changes in a minute
People need to be accountable… Sorry why is it sociey’s problem?
Choose the behavior choose the consequences
Gia Guidera sorry I read too fast
Chris Walton Sherwood exactly
Tricia Januska still an irrelevant comparison
I am well aware of the consequences thank you. Friends of mine have lost people due to heroin. However, they chose the behavior. Nobody forced them to shoot heroin. They were not born addicted to heroin. It was a CHOICE. I am a tax payer who CHOOSES not to smoke, drink, or engage in this behavior, which is little more then playing Russian Roulette.
Gia Guidera Gia Guidera No, cancer is not a lifestyle choice. However, my mother’s lifestyle choice gave her cancer. She smoked two packs of cigarettes a day and developed small cell lung cancer. And she wasn’t a nice person either. She was known to lie to others and had a fair number of people who would not associate with her.

Who would choose cancer? Heroin isnt the cause of or the consequences of a disease. Its a CHOICE. Cancer can and should be treated. Heroin only gets to you by choice. My friends soon to be ex wife was high on heroin two weeks ago when she rolled over on, smothered and killed a 3 month old baby! I suppose that was the baby’s choice? No it was the stupid bitch, high for the thousandth times fault. Killed them both
Oh and don’t leave the high boyfriend unaccountable… Passed out in the next room
My mom chose cigarettes. Cigarettes gave her cancer.
Just like these people chose to do heroin, that choice gave them the disease of addiction. Just because someone has a disease does not absolve them of responsibility. If an addict robs a bank to get money for drugs, that’s not the addictions fault. Like any other disease, it is your responsibility to keep it in check.
By your quote, “cancer can and should be treated”
But my mom absolutely gave herself cancer. If you apply your logic (heroin users do it to themselves and don’t deserve to be helped), we should have denied treatment to her, because she brought about her disease herself
Can’t compare them but I understand your logic too.. Both chemicals are basically long term suicide but cancer has more than one cause, therefore i can support treating it
Narcan is used to undo OPIOID overdose not just those heroin junkies, l o l hopefully your grandma or mom or anyone is never in pain and has to have pain pills cause yanno you can OD on them too, but fuck them old people too right? Lol they chose to take that pill shoulda just suffered through ?
Small cell lung cancer has one cause. Combustible tobacco smoking. This has been proven. My mother ignored the risks and wound up killing herself.
And there are more than one factor that goes into “causing” addiction. Example: I am an addict. I like booze and blow. Opiates never did anything for me, just made me itchy and cranky.
But if you ask the addict next to me, he’ll tell you that uppers make him too shaky, and heroin is what made him feel normal.
My point is, addiction is not a black and white issue. Yes, it is a disease. Yes, you are still responsible for your actions if you have this disease. Yes, you are responsible for keeping yourself clean and sober, and keeping yourself from relapse.
It’s awful what some addicts will do to maintain their addiction. I don’t think anyone is condoning that behavior. But to bring this back to my original point, just like my mother, who gave herself cancer, addicts are still someone’s family. I’m sorry, but if I see someone’s family member unconscious and almost dead, I am doing something about it. Regardless of why they’re unconscious.
Sad. Hope the person made it.
If the State controls Narcan costs. why don’t they step in and do the same for Insulin or Chemo?
Tim Reid agreed
Cancer and diabetes aren’t lifestyle choices
Gia Guidera No, cancer is not a lifestyle choice. However, my mother’s lifestyle choice gave her cancer. She smoked two packs of cigarettes a day and developed small cell lung cancer. And she wasn’t a nice person either. She was known to lie to others and had a fair number of people who would not associate with her.

Tim Reid epi pens too
This is the 3rd one in Ocean County I read on this page today. I can’t believe this.
I guess if it was a friggin dog you’d all care.
You people are pathetic.
Home owner has narcan which clearly tells you what goes on in that house. 38 year old overdosing on drugs? Smfh.
I have narcan and no one uses in my house but I felt it would be good to have on me for any just in cases outside the home
Niki Vasta I wish I could carry narcan at $2.50 a dose but I have no money left over because my lifesaving EpiPen is $700
Danny You have the power to change this by voting for people who care
Danny Scarpati I also have 2 Epipens I didn’t pay for either. Insurance did
Niki Vasta yes, my insurance paid for mine also but that is what my insurance company paid for them. It still doesn’t change the point about price comparison.
When yours expire and you have to replace them look at what the insurance company paid for them
Debi Ann I did, and Donald Trump has already started opening up pharmaceutical supplies from Canada and other countries.
The only thing that will change prices is competition.
It’s 2 completely different things. The narcan was free when they had that free giveaway day. Either way, both life saving devices with different costs. That’s no ones fault you wish to blame
? bout Sums it up however would like to add you need to check your heart cause it seems to be dead only God Above can judge and you damn sure aint him ?
Ryan Suveg 38 and from Jackson. ??
Gina Marie hopefully it’s Petty Tendergrass
Ryan Suveg I could never be that lucky ?
Mean while diabetics can’t afford proper medication for a problem they were born with these Dumbass’s get free narcan so they get a chance to do it again.
Yes I have a family member with issues. They choose killer drugs they choose death!
No I don’t care you chose!
Go ahead start your rants I know you will.
