this is a crazy statistic:
Last year in Pinellas County, more people died from prescription narcotics overdoses than died from automobile accidents.

That's alot of people in alot of pain, and a very sad growing trend in our society. I think younger people need to be taught better coping skills, and healthy ways to deal with emotional, financial and social stress in order to avoid relying so much on prescription pills to deal with life. Public education should evolve with our society, and include more classes on emotional health so that young adults grow into adults who can handle problems without needing so many destructive coping mechanisms.

That's my two cents for this morning.
