Narrator: Prescription opioids can be addictive and dangerous.

Mike: I was given a prescription opioid pain medication, and within only a few months, I was completely addicted. I lost everything. I had to leave school, and stop playing sports in college. And I started to watch my life slip away. I want people to know that these drugs are addictive. One prescription can be all it takes to lose everything.
