Do the spike of overdoses due to opiates stem from replacing emotional neediness with private computers in an nonreciprocal world?

    No, it is caused by abuse of the drug. Many who oerdose don't even have a computer, they are from the poor 

    parts of town in my area.

    No, but certainly a great deal of it comes from emotional needs not being met in general. 

    I'm not challenging MS's personal experience, but most opioid addicts are not poor. Today, they're often business professionals. I unfortunately now know several who have struggled with addiction; people who are respected in their communities and hold down jobs and look like the traditional suburbanite.

    No.

    It is because doctors over prescribe opiates, and them people get addicted to them.
