En människa i tillstånd av heroinabstinens eller en människa som är drogpåverkad är inte tillräknelig och gör kanske inte en bedömning som är riktigt.
Fattar du verkligen inte problemet i en situation då en man plockar upp en drogpåverkad/ abstinent kvinna på gatan och har sex med henne? Fattar du verkligen inte?
Om inte så har du någon seriös störning gällande din empatiska förmåga.
Och du vet det här för att du är expert på sånt?
Withdrawal from heroin is a trivial matter
Citat:
Theodore Dalrymple is outraged by the mollycoddling of drug addicts coming off heroin and the notion that their predicament is a matter of human rights
Citat:
It is doubtful whether anyone ever dies from withdrawal of opiates alone. In reviewing the medical literature between 1875 and 1968, the doctors and researchers Glaser and Ball were unable to find a single case of death from withdrawal of opiates, despite the fact that the literature covered many thousands of cases.
Indeed, such withdrawal is medically triv-ial, unlike that from alcohol and barbiturates (and sometimes even benzodiazepines such as valium). Let me quote Niesink, Jaspers, Kornet and van Ree’s book, Drugs of Abuse and Addiction: Neurobehavioral Toxicology: ‘[Withdrawal] is time limited… and not life-threatening, thus can be easily controlled by reassurance, personal attention and general nursing care without any need for pharmacotherapy.’
Citat:
In the 1930s, experiments were done demonstrating that morphine addicts could not reliably distinguish between injections of water and morphine: when they received water thinking it was morphine, their symptoms abated, but when they received morphine thinking it was water, they grew worse.
It has also been established that the distress of withdrawal is not correlated with the physical severity of withdrawal symptoms, and is often at its worst before, not during, withdrawal.
Citat:
Heroin addicts are not ‘hooked’ by heroin, as fishermen take fish; they ‘hook’ heroin. Most of them take it intermittently for quite a time before they take it regularly and become physiologically addicted to it. Moreover, taking opiates by injection is not incompatible with normal working. In the 1930s, the majority of morphine addicts in America went to work normally.
heroinabstinens är bullshit ^ och det är ingen som horar för att de "abstinens tvingar mig" det är det dummaste argumentet i hela tråden.
