Good point, at the beginning anyway.
However, with so many nerve endings being exposed, I’m not sure if there are enough pain killers in the world that you could give somebody if they are that far into an addiction that they can literally rot away and not feel anything.
True enough....the ultimate irony, of course is that they more they rot away, the users probably ending taking even MORE of the drug to ease the pain. The ultimate downward spiral, if you will.
