Opiate Addiction - The Painkiller Addiction Epidemic, Heroin Addiction and the Way Out Now in its 5th Edition (2017) - Get this Best Selling book that has helped thousands. Opiate addiction has reached epidemic proportions in the United States, and the problem shows no signs of slowing. Overcoming addiction is tough and, with opiates, many find it nearly impossible. Overdose deaths from prescription painkillers have more than quadrupled over the last fifteen years, and this is just a fraction of the problem. In fact, with prescription opiate addiction now shown to be a gateway drug to heroin, the issue is only getting worse. In 2013 alone, nearly 170,000 people in this country tried heroin for the first time, a drug that can be deadly from its first use. Drug overdoses are claiming the lives of 120 people daily in this country, 80 each day from opiates.

If you or someone you love is addicted to opiates, Opiate Addiction , now in its 4th Edition, offers a powerful message balanced with both useful information and hope for a way out from its stifling grip. There is no doubt that addiction is a cunning and cruel disease that robs its victims of nearly everything. Those suffering from opiate addiction are often baffled by its effects on their lives and the devastation that can be wrought in such a short period of time. Loved ones feel helpless and hopeless as they are forced to stand by and watch as someone they care about erodes before their eyes.
