Still fentanyl due to how careful you have to be with dosage. You could probably outright kill a child with it if they step on your used needle you left in some random park.
True, and I wonder if the heroin stats are being muddied up with that. Heroin and cocaine used to be sold as medicines, which makes me wonder if they're not as bad as we were told, at least when used correctly. But Fentanyl is a very new drug and appears to be pure poison. I watched a doc on it and the high people get only lasts 30 minutes! They called it the crack cocaine of opiates, where the user must keep chasing the high! That sounds like it was designed to kill.
Back to meth, I can't think of any other drug that turns people so psycho and violent. Alcohol is an interesting one, some people get rendered goofy and useless, while others seem to go incredible hulk madmen. I don't know what to make of it
Overall I'd say any substance in this chart could be removed completely if people would just use it appropriately and not abuse it. That's what pisses me off on the "war on drugs". They just outright took them away from us and left us with toxic and useless alternatives, like Tylenol and Advil, cigarettes (thank God for vapes!) and alcohol (they tried to take it though! kek)
My cousin has struggled with meth his entire adult life. Supposedly he is clean, but I still do not trust him. He's even tried to kill his own mother and have it look like an accident so that he could collect life insurance money or something.
What makes (consumable!) alcohol so dangerous is its function as a beta blocker, which can deal cumulative damage to your brain and heart especially when combined with beta blocker medications.
Obviously damage to liver as well.
If people drank responsibly (say, a couple beers on the weekend or wine with dinner etc.) this would probably not be a problem but it is addictive so people rarely do drink so responsibly.
I think people tend to overlook other effects of alcohol unless they've seen someone abuse it, fall into alcoholism, develop dementia and then Alzheimer's despite warnings for decades from their doctors, and die.
That's not me saying I think it's as bad as any of these drugs of course, but it's good to have the information that tends to be overlooked IMO.
