I'm not aware that anyone every tried to do it right.

Like how about you have to do a short course which actually explains to you how a drug works, how to use it correctly, what are potential downsides, what are markers of overuse/wrong use.

And the other main issue with opioids and co: some people really have constant / chronic pain.

Do you know how exhaustive it is to constantly have pain? How annoying it is that you can't just go to bed and sleep?

But also we can't play devils advocate to say "you are not allowed to do drugs to num whatever issue you have" and also "but i don't want to take time and effort of helping you".

Oh i don't want you to kill yourself! But i don't want to spend time tomorrow afternoon either with you.

Our society is very hypcritical in this sense. Honestly i think people just don't want to see homeless people or fentapoeple. Its not about helping, its just about not being disturbed by them.
