He’s an operations manager at Big Bend Community Based Care, which provides substance abuse help to 18 panhandle counties. Daniels said opioid dependence has been notoriously hard to combat. “That drug rewires your brain,” he said. “You cannot, not have it. You get sick.” Opioids are highly addictive painkillers. Among them, many commonly prescribed medications and the illegal drug heroin. The opioid epidemic has been a growing concern, not just in Florida, but across the nation for the last several years.
