Dopesick - Dichiarazione di dipendenza

Firstly, this mini series shows the cruel reality of our society. It shows how the Legal Drug Lords aka Pharmaceutical, sell poison to people who suffers from pain. The message is real and clear.

Second, drugs can relieve the pain, but not your soul. It's only temporal and with the time, you will need more and more. The more you take pills, the better for pharmaceutical industries.

Last, this mini series is a must to understand how Pharmaceutical bussines only wants to monetize your pain. They don't care about healing your soul.

Great mini series. Great acting. Real story. A must. Time to wake up and stop the over use of pills.

A really well done series that feels like a perfect reenactment that meets docu series. It was interesting and captured the entire story while still having its own style and great acting.

I do not like to watch many dramas, but I knew this would be important.

Ignore the low reviews if you agree Big Pharma is the business of staying in business, even if it means death or addiction.

From Danny Strong to Kaitlyn Dever to Rosario Dawson, this cast is excellent.

The episodes and timelines are confusing to me. That did not discourage me from learning more about the Real Drug War.

The variety of oxycontin victim backgrounds is solid as well.

I hope this show wins awards and informs many of pharmaceutical addiction and death.

I didn't think this series would effect me so hard. I cried and cried throughout it. This series was my life! I am now 12 years clean after going through years of opioid addiction. Watching the scenes with them going through withdraw were the hardest bc I have been there and that was a way of life in during my addiction. Your day consists of how can I get more pills so I don't get sick and at that point the pills don't even make you high anymore your just taking them to be able to function. This was one of the best shows that really show how devastatingly painful and scary withdraw is. Im thrilled that they shined a light on pardue and other big Parma companies in this. My addiction started with going to the Dr for endometriosis. Nobody told me back then that you could get addicted. First time you go into withdraw you don't even know that is what is happening to you. Sad thing is, is once your heavily addicted doctors turn their back on you and society looks at you like you're a piece of cr@p. So very very sad. Everyone should watch this series!

Although Dopesick isn't entirely non-fictional everybody knows by now what devastating ravages Oxycontin did in the daily lives of millions of Americans. It's the cancer under the opioids, easy to get and extremely addictive. This show is based on a non-fictional book, but the characters are most of the time fictional. That said Dopesick is a quality show, very well made, with tons of very good actors, and a story that keeps you wanting for more. Without spoiling anything you secretly hope those big pharmaceutical companies will get stopped but the reality like we all know by now is that they're untouchable and that's only the fault of a corrupt American system, like the FDA, the CDC, and many judges. The whole system there is rotten to the bone, too much money is going from hand to hand, from rich to richer, and it's not the common people that will change anything about that. Thankfully there are people fighting the system but except a few dents they will never break down that wall of corruption. America is sick, the whole world sees it, and nobody cares. Great show, great acting, very addictive to watch.
