On MSN there is an article posted named Survive Your Doctor: The Junkie in the O.R. These findings were made in studies by John Booth, M.D., a former Duke University anesthesiologist, and Mark S. Gold, M.D., a psychiatry professor at the University of Florida's McKnight Brain Institute. It talks about the growing epidemic of anasteleologist becoming addicted to their own drugs. At fist I was completelly stuned but if you think about it it makes sence. Every one is deirectlly or indirectlly adicted to things at work. Doctors are not only working long hours and shifts but are under a lot of pressure. Yet I am outraged this is occuring! People in low paying jobs are enforced to tale drug test and are monitored to make sure things aren't taken from their jobs. I don't see how doctors are able to take advantage of these drugs. The doctors were geting these drugs free from work and geting away with it. It amazing to see that the same thing happens in all social classes, it's a mater of the drugs that are actually available.
