Why Addiction Keeps Pulling Me Back

NYT    May 2018

 

 

 

 

Why Addiction Keeps Pulling Me Back

Video        Op-Docs        NYT        May 2018

 

This week’s Op-Doc is Paul Szynol’s “The Pull,”

a searing exploration of the inner life of John Bixby,

a New Hampshire man struggling with drug addiction.

 

Beginning just before Bixby’s release from jail,

the film follows his lonely journey

across the ghostly landscape

of New England’s opioid crisis.

 

As Szynol writes,

Bixby’s story is “an agonizing battle

between his desire to use and his stiff

but weakening resolve to stay clean.”

 

The result

is a lyrical tale of hope and disappointment,

told without judgment,

with glimpses of astonishing vulnerability.

Deaths due to drug overdose

have topped a million for the first time

since the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

began collecting data

on the problem more than two decades ago.

 

A study released Thursday

by the National Center for Health Statistics,

a division of the CDC,

found that 932,364 people died in the U.S.

from fatal overdoses from 1999 through 2020.

xylazine in opioid

 

Among users,

it is commonly referred to as Tranq.

 

Used for decades

by veterinarians to tranquilize large animals,

xylazine is being used by drug dealers

to amp up the effects of fentanyl

and other opioids.

 

In humans,

the drug causes deep flesh wounds

that sometimes bore down to the bone.
