The increase in addiction to prescription drugs

Wow, upon watching the news yesterday I learned that the prescription drug use has increased by 400%. This is mostly housewives and women in general. They are calling it mothers little helper. Well, guess what,  mother's little helper is adding alcohol the mix which increases the effects of the drugs, mostly painkillers, Xanax and other similar drugs. Having a glass of wine in the evening to take the edge off is one thing, but mixing prescription painkillers and depressants with alcohol is a recipe for death and destruction.

Nothing like driving your children around in a stupor, overdosing and accidentally committing suicide or killing someone else.  I mean really ladies....get some help. Your probably thinking how too?
