RIP Colt Brennan

[AnonEmouse]

Not knowing much detail, but reading between the lines, it looks like the accident lead to much of his substance abuse problems. He said since the accident he didn't feel like the same person. Can't help wondering if his issues were a combination of opiate prescription and/or lack of psychological help after the event?

Over here Dr's are VERY reticent to prescribe opiate pain killer meds. Our perception is its a big problem in the US because your Dr's don't share that reticence (big pharma pressure?).
