He says: The solution to changing the illegal or
unhealthy ritualized compulsive comfort - seeking behavior
of opioid addiction is to address a person's adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) individually and in group therapy; treat people with respect; provide
medication assistance in the form
of buprenorphine, an opioid
used to treat opioid addiction; and help them find a ritualized compulsive comfort - seeking behavior that won't kill them or put them in jail.
