Hey @DoorDash_Help I ordered through Jersey Mike's APP and the address was wrong. I contacted my delivery person personally and he dropped it off. But now he can't get the order to show completed.

Two epidemics are contributing to decreased life expectancies in the US: opioid-related fatalities and suicide. Drs. Oquendo and Volkow argue that accurate statistics, better rehab and prevention strategies are needed to address this crisis. More here: nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…
And codependency is often seen in these family systems or within relationships where someone has OUD! teapawt.org/AddictionCampus/status…

A8: (Shamelessly plugging our site 👉) You can read more about the #opioidepidemic on our website: buff.ly/2rPbJoS. #SOSChat teapawt.org/StampStigma/status/996…

A8: Again, chose your words wisely. Yelling, screaming, and calling someone with OUD derogatory names just further pushes them lower and increases their guilt and shame. Create boundaries and help them without enabling their use. #SOSCHAT teapawt.org/StampStigma/status/996…

A8: If your loved one is in treatment, attend family therapy if it is offered. Addiction is a family disease! Also, #Naranon and #Alanon can connect you with other people living with people with OUD. teapawt.org/StampStigma/status/996…

This is so spot on! Stop shaming people! #soschat teapawt.org/CenterPointeNe/status/…
A7) Addiction is a chronic disease & it can include relapse. But relapse isn't the end of recovery. We don't blame people when they experience a heart attack even though they take a beta blocker. We need to stop shaming people who relapse on substances. #SOSChat

A7: That each person's addiction is individual to them. There is no one size fits all program that will keep someone sober. And sometimes it takes more than one attempt to get into active recovery. #SOSchat teapawt.org/StampStigma/status/996…
Q7: What do you wish more people understood about recovery from addiction? #SOSChat

A6: People need to safely dispose of any leftover medications through local law enforcement or the @DEAHQ drop off events! Keeping these meds around can put them into the hands of the wrong people. teapawt.org/StampStigma/status/996…
Q6: What are the current best strategies for treatment of addiction to opioids? #SOSChat

A6: Depending on the person's time using and the amount they use, they may require #MedicationAssistedTreatment with suboxe. #MAT programs need to have therapy both group and individual, to really address the underlying issues. #SOSCHAT teapawt.org/StampStigma/status/996…
