“To be alive is to suffer,” says Jeff Benum, Chief Anesthetizing Officer for NarcoCorp, makers of Actiq, one of the fentanyl brands that has come under fire following a year that saw a 155% increase in opioid-related deaths in San Diego. “Physical suffering, emotional suffering, psychological suffering. Suffering brought on by parents, by peers, by offspring. By circumstance, by happenstance, by personal flaws. Breakthrough suffering, chronic suffering, cyclical suffering. We’re pretty good at distracting ourselves, but pain still has its way with us, even in a place as objectively pleasant as San Diego. Ultimately, the only cure for all that pain is death. In the meantime, there’s fentanyl. You people should be grateful instead of complaining. We get that you’re suffering because your loved ones are dead, but you know what can help with that? Actiq.”
