@adamzivo Facts: Fentanyl is flooding our streets, period, but, Addicts know what their buying. Addicts know it can kill them. Most addicts say they want recovery but are not willing to fight for their sobriety. It’s hard, it’s scary but it can be done. No one said it would be easy

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

FENTANYL: Because our society refused to acknowledge the opioid problem twenty years ago, we are now, facing the greatest epidemic since the HIV-AIDS crisis and COVID-19 combined.
When will we learn…..how many more deaths is it going to take?

I just watched “Tulsa King” on Paramount + and on season 1 episode 8, my good friend and former Fresno Mayor Alan Autry has a role. Congratulations Alan!

Sobriety isn’t about giving everything up, it’s about taking everything back!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

You’d be surprised who’s watching your journey and being inspired by it.
Don’t Quit!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

Addiction is as much behavioral as it is physical. You don’t change behavior in 28 days! 1 yr, 5 yrs, more of addiction=same amount of time of addict behavior. It takes time to change, you can do it!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

For those of you in recovery. If you work in treatment your job is not your recovery program, it’s the people in your programs recovery. Work your own program, don’t work yours for them!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

Most people don’t want to be part of the process, they just want to be part of the outcome. But the process is where you figure out who’s worth being part of the outcome!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

I recover out loud to give voice to all who still suffer in silence!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

Sometimes you have to burn bridges to keep the past from following you!

I want to thank Dr. Rais Vohra, Fresno County Public Health Officer for including me & Pain in the filming of public service announcements for the Fresno County Opioid Coalition. He is a man who truly cares about our community!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

Awareness of the fentanyl & opioid crises is growing. FINALLY! It gut punches me to see bandwagoners with no expertise take advantage of families in vulnerable positions. So important you know who you are listening to!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

The 10,000-hour rule was invented by Malcolm Gladwell who stated that ‘researchers believe the magic number for TRUE EXPERTISE is 10,000 hrs.’ That’s almost 10 years, let alone actual experience…

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

Sobriety creates humility, humility creates compassion, compassion creates credibility and credibility creates success!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

I had the honor yesterday of speaking to the staff of Bullard H.S with DA Lisa Smittcamp and Dean Cardinale with Fresno PD on the fentanyl epidemic. I want to thank Principal Armen Torigian for taking a role in helping us fight this epidemic. Narcan was provided for the school!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

Be careful of the information your getting on Harm Reduction, Therapy and Drug Treatment. Check your sources… This is Life and Death we’re dealing with!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

China = fentanyl. There are no bullets, no bombs, no rules of engagement and no mercy for those who try to surrender. The casualty list grows each day. We are at war with China and our government is to blind to see it. It’s time to fight back!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

15,000 Rainbow fentanyl pills found in Lego boxes in Manhattan. Anybody in our government still thinks this isn’t a problem? Way past due shutting down our boarders! Cartels v Us, guess who’s winning?

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

DEA in Manhattan located 15,000 rainbow fentanyl pills concealed in Lego boxes! Cartels use any means to get this over our borders. We need to do anything necessary to protect our borders and change our laws to put these people away…Permanently!

[Flindt Andersen @FlindtAndersen]

The best thing about speaking the truth is you don’t have to remember what you said!
