An Invisible Enemy: The War on Fentanyl Preview Trailer
Просмотров 209Год назад
In 2021, 107,622 people died by drug poisoning in the United States. Americans are now more likely to die from an opioid overdose than they are from a car accident or by gun. Fentanyl, the synthetic opioid most commonly found in fake pills, is the primary driver in this alarming increase in poisoning deaths. We hope you'll join us on as we hear the stories of three Pickens County young men who ...

This is not an addiction problem , it is a supply problem. The government and medical field should stop killing its people by getting them hooked and creating a crisis and then cutting off the clean supply and let the Mexicanans and Chinese fill the vaccuum
I've never touched Heroine & have only ever taken opiates that came straight from a pharmacy,but I have done fentanyl.I would use it both for pain from back & hand surgeries plus to prevent/stop withdrawals.I used gel filled fentanyl patches,but instead of peeling the plastic off and sticking it to my body, I would cut 1/3 of the patch off,peel the portion off with the tiny holes (so the actual gel would be in direct contact with my skin) tape it to my stomach and it would last for 24 hrs.However,anytime I would do more than what I listed above, it would literally take only a tiny amount & only minutes to take effect and the effect would be instantaneous throwing up as my bodies way of attempting to get rid of it. So it's more potent and deadly than anything you could take and takes effect within seconds to minutes.So the level of danger being shared by everyone in this video is very real.....
why is the music louder than the people vices...
I have many issues, I don't see how drugs or alcohol would help me cope any better! We need to stop making excuses for people!
"Its just Jesus". Well he's done a bang up job, hasn't he? All part of his perfect plan. How can you be so delusional?
The number of times I've heard that a drug deal happened over Spapchat or Instagram is crazy. There's gotta be a way to get at the social media brands and have them look at their products and find some ways they can self-regulate to at least mitigate this. It seems way too easy to get drugs over these apps. And isn't social media available to anyone over the age of 13? I'm not sure, I'm just here on RUclips.
Everyone please carry Naloxone with you even if you are not an opioid user or even personally know any opioid users. Many states have programs that will give it away for FREE without asking any questions. You could save a life ❤❤
Things are bad when independent health departments from all over the country are starting to produce their own full-length documentaries on the crisis
@mosaicowlstudios I Think This Was A Great Documentary, Fentenal Is Now. A World Wide Problem!! My Son Died In 2014 From Abuse Of Which Started With A Prescription, Stopped Going To His DR And Buying Them On The Street, Because Of His Age I Pleaded To Baker Act Him, No One Would Help Me, He Didn't Live At Home, He And His Common-Law Wife And 2 Daughters Lived Together.. My Son Put Himself Through School And Worked During The Day!! He Was Making $75 Dollars A Hour, Who In Their Right Mind Would Give That Up Except A Person Using Drugs!! I Know He Started Using Meth I Told Him I Couldn't Help Him With Money I Couldn't Trust Him Not To Buy Drugs Or Buy His Wife's Liquor!! I Bought My Granddaughters Clothes And Shoes But The Mother Would Take Them Back For The Cash, I Even Watched My Granddaughters Not Knowing The Mother Had A Restraining Order On My Son When It Was Her Attacks Against My Son, He Spent 6 Months In Jail, She Called Him Saying That The Girls Were Sick, Had The Police Waiting For Him!! I Had My Son 3 Days After Jail, He Overdosed On His Pain Medication I Didn't Know He Had, My Son Took His Last Breath In My Arms Trying To Call 911 I'm In Chemotherapy Now, Not Wanting To Start Radiation!!
Why is the lighting so dark on this video. I hate it. Shine the light on the truth!!!!!!!!!! Why are you in the dark., literally?
The drug dealers are part of the population reduction plan. Otherwise they wouldn’t be killing their customers
I'm not so sure these fentanyl deaths are factors of dependency. I think a lot of the overdoses are recreational.
Fentanyl is dangerous to fentanyl users never mind somebody without a tolerance. If you don't have a tolerance you're pretty much dead.
Grief therapy. Go ahead and cry ladies, let your heart cry. Or try retail therapy.
Why can't they just stick to having a beer?

How about trying to educate yourself on addiction.
Lost my 46 year old son on February 23rd of this year to fentanyl and morphine overdose thst was in whatever he took. I am angry that people woukd give this to people knowing it would kill them
@gingerhart3584 I'm So Sorry For The Loss Of Your Son!💓 My Son Died Oct 8th 2014 He Was 26Years Old.. My Life Has Changed Forever, I Think Most Parents Feel This Pain...
I can't deal with the Bible crap
We understand that it is not for everyone, but for the moms in this video that is how they dealt with losing their sons. And many others out there cope in the same way so that's why we left it in the film. How someone chooses to cope with loss is up to them :) Thank you for the feedback!
@@bhspcThat part I understand. I guess the point I'm making is that I think the religious stuff plays a role in the development of addictions - as does any ideology - overemphasis on ethnicity, politics, religion, gender roles, military/police, patriotism - it's the rigidity and the perfectionism that function as a set-up in the lives of developing young people. It's just my experience. I've been an MSW for 41 years.
@@bhspc And I didn't mean to minimize the excellent work you're doing. I recently heard a counsellor say to a parent "Your son just needs to hit bottom." "Hit bottom?" I said. "That's a phrase we used 20-40 years ago to describe things getting worse. Today 'bottom' means "dead."" As you point out, you can't get it wrong today - not even once. That wasn't true when I was growing up. It's a very different world - and it's impossible to even do enough public education.
@@ted1091 Thank you very much for your feedback! Living in the Bible belt can be tough for sure. We really appreciate you watching, and providing us with valuable information that we can take moving forward with other projects.
My boyfriend of 30 years died from fentanyl in 2022. He was very mean in the end. Addicted to heroin for 32 years. I didn't know it when I met him but by the time I found out I was emotionally attached and thought I could help him. You can't help a drug addict they have to want it. My daughter is the one affected by it in a bad way. I saw it coming. I told him you're dying Gary. And 2 weeks later he was gone. He was a functioning addict. I guess that's why he made it so long. Never missed a day of work. He was a good man in his heart. Once this fentanyl came around I knew it would get him and it did. Very sad. His autopsy came up endocarditis due to shooting up.
So sorry to hear this! Addiction is a dark disease!
I can’t hear music. Honest
What music do u hear?
The sound editing is terrible. I watched about 14 minutes, and just when my ears would settle from the previous loud music, as tje scen changed, it would start again with the next scene's loud competing music. You might as well have interviewed these people in a loud, obnoxious bar. There's no way I'd recommend this to anyone to watch because of the sound. The aound engineer needs to fix this.
Thank you for your feedback!

lost my younger brother to fentanyl overdose. my heart goes out to all those affected by the demon of dependency.
So sorry for your loss!
I'm an opiate addict from way way back through pharmageddon been sober ten years and Suboxone is what probably saved my life true story!!!! 💯💯💯+10
Congratulations! We use Suboxone here at BHSPC as part of our MAT program!
I keep hearing…”nobody chooses this”… well… yes they have…from the first cigarette, MJ, pill…experimenting is the first CHOSEN step
They may have chosen to start but they do not choose a counterfeit substance laced with fentanyl.
So I was sexually abused as a child then as a teenager and now I’m 51yo and still battling with a meth addiction and have an opiod problem due to chronic pain SO you’re saying I chose this path? Pedos and untreated childhood trauma made me “choose” ok So Stop with the it’s a “choice” babble!
No such thing as laced weed. You cant freebase opiates straight off the flame like that. Its why you see users with foil under it and a lighter away from the foil. Its like saying you can snort pot
Not true. What about k2?
As someone who nearly died from weed laced with PCP. I can definitely tell you that is a lie. People put crack with weed and dip weed in all kinds of liquid drugs to modify the High which would make it laced.
I've smoked black tar heroin shoved in a cigarette many times. If you can smoke it like that, I'm sure you could smoke it in a joint. You would know heroin is in it, at least black tar, I've never done the white heroin but you can definitely smoke that via combustion. So your little Ted talk is bullshit.
My son overdosed from one bong rip of weed that was unknowing laced with fentanyl.
Jonathan's mum broke me! You know she is a beautiful human being just by the job she does. I pray she finds a little bit of peace ❤
Thank you for your kind words! We made this in hopes of bringing light to the tragedies these families experience. Cindy is such a kind soul. We appreciate you watching!
great program but the music is a bit much and is distracting
It’s annoying!
I've watched a lot of drug documentaries but this one full on hit me in the heart. I cried most the way through it. God Bless all those poor families.
Thank you for your kind words! We made this in hopes of bringing light to the tragedies these families experience. We appreciate you watching!
As a filmmaker, this is a HUGE compliment! All of these people were so brave to come forward and share their stories and I just pray that this film wakes people (namely our youth) up to the dangers of substance use so that their stories can stop ending so abruptly.
Excellent doc! ❤ The music is beautiful, but a little too loud.
Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate you watching!
this was a good documentary except for the background music that drowned out the dialogue.
Thank you for the feedback!
Always buy from Dispensaries, they are the only sure way to get quality products, ya, you will pay more, but I'd say that's worth the cost of my life, wouldn't you? of course I'm referring to flower, and all other cannabinoids, as opposed to buying a dime bag off the street, and flip a coin in the air while you're at it because you have at least a 50% chance of dying. that's scary. that's how it is today in the streets with all this Fentanyl being mixed in everything.
Is this not actually poisoning? That's murder!😮
Many states are enacting drug-induced homicide laws to charge dealers with deaths. South Carolina is working on one here that is close to passing.
Emergency guy who said he went to a house 4 times to give narcam to the same person
This is the case in many places. Fentanyl has a very strong hook for addiction and a small therapeutic index (meaning that it does not take much at all for it to have its intended effect) so if an individual is not passing away then it's likely that they will continue to seek fentanyl, and unfortunately will continue to overdose.
@@bhspcAnd now they’re adding another chemical to street drugs that offset the effects of Narcan, so we can’t bring ODs back! If this were about the money, the producers of these drugs wouldn’t be intentionally killing off our mostly young men by increasing the strength and resistant to countermeasures. This is an attack!
This video should have 342 million views the population of the United States if people continue to ignore this you are going to wake up one day and China will be your governor you will be enslaved because you don’t want to listen
There is no such thing as experimentation anymore weed is not safe and we know that’s the #1 thing the majority of people start with.
Unfortunately, this is very true.
You're saying cannabis is a gateway drug?
@@sirjames7800 As an example, we recently had a case of marijuana seizure in our area sprinkled with fentanyl powder--making it unsafe.
Weed is safe from dispensary
@@elisabethfinn6702 here in South Carolina where we are located, it is still illegal.
I tried and tried to have that "early conversation" with my kids because my ex, their father was addicted to heroin (and porn). They don't want to listen. All they could hear was me talking smack about their father. He went into recovery and rehab multiple times after an overdose and he has been"clean" for years now. But he did so much damage in other ways I haven't mentioned and I only resent him. My kids think he is a "hero" for recovery. I understand the Fentanyl crisis is horrible and I hope people get medicine that can adequately help them with withdrawal, because that is why they won't quit. They have to "detox" for a certain time before they get on Suboxone or Methadone and that is problematic. There needs to be a transition/bridge medicine in between going off heroin/opioids/fentanyl to Suboxone/Methadone. More people will die during this crisis than will be saved. And the quality of life will decrease for EVERYONE to try and save these people. I never did drugs but my kids don't consider me a "hero." All the people who never did drugs are going to pay the price to save those people who ignored the tragedy all around them every single day and decided to party and pursue pleasure until they became addicted and it wasn't pleasurable anymore and they need it not to be dope sick. Don't forget the relationship between drugs and porn. Many of these drugs are sex enhancing drugs (meth, ecstasy, cocaine, etc.) and that is inexcusable and I have no sympathy for it.
I just lost another friend. A very close friend since high school. Parted ways for some years but our heroin/other drug addictions resulted in us crossing paths and chillin once again in our late twenties and early thirties. Not like we were ever on bad terms, just living life in different sides of the state, city, nation, world.... Always managed to catch back up. We were just shooting the shit in my car during hot august nights outside/inside the Atlantis casino... the car I was living in. Dropped him off at the park he was sleeping at.. with his tools and work clothes!! This man was sleeping in public parks with a sleeping bag and pillow, all his work gear, while working full time hours. Simply GETTING IT. I loved this dude so much. I regret questioning him when I lost my drugs that night. I didn't believe him until I found my shit stuck deep behind my steerint wheel. Made me feel awful. I knew he would never do that anyway but drugs had seeped into my brain and logical thinking. Thank god it never escalated into something worse. I saw him after that thankfully.... one night where I sold him drugs. He walked across town through the freezing rain/snow in March. Reno in March still has random blizzards and freezing wind and rain if not a blizzard. He claimed he was on his way to rehab the next day, flight ticket and all. We drew and tagged in my blackbooks til the early morning, chatting about life, loss, and love. I tried to empathize and relate as much as I could - thankfully we've lived similar lives; similar enough to know more tha any doctor or shrink could ever possibly understand. (exception being my awesome doc at the clinic who is a recovering opioid addict). It's only been a few hours since I found out. Through facebook, of all ways to hear the news. Sad and he deserved so much more. I and everyone else who saw the news on facebook deserved better. This was a friend that brightened the room when he walked in, everyone loved his crazy ass. Just like the friend we all lost almost 6 years ago. That was when fentanyl was first hitting the scene where I'm from - it was still questionable if that was how he even passed. It could have been heroin and xanas, after moving away for nearly a year and relapsing during a day work trip back to town (Sac to Reno). Fucking tears me up, kowing how easily it could have been me, or my brother. I've tried to tell both my brother and myself the harsh reality - that statistically, the odds are against both of us surviving addiction. It's so hard to even imagine it, but we have to prepare ourselves NOW with what one of us will have to deal with if the other one ever doesn't wake up. We've both atttended multiple funerals for lost friends - OD and suicides. These are the number one and two killers for young American men these days - mental health and addiction is running rampant and destroying our communities. And i'm a contributor to that degregation. Urban and now suburban dystopia is becoming more and more of a reality with every single damn day that passes us. Whether 10 years ago or 10 minutes, addiction never changes, and neither does the feeling that someone close to you being taken by the grim reaper. The feeling never changes in my experiene. RIP Tyler, love you and see you soon.
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your story. You carry a huge mass of danger and sadness. Many hugs from me to you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
