This petition is my action to fight against the issue of prescription drug abuse. With the regulation of prescription drugs, the tragic events of overdose and addiction will decrease!

I spent the whole morning reading through the stories you all are leaving here and honestly its just so overwhelming to see how many people are hurting in the exact same ways. Some of you have been sending me private messages with ideas for better pharmacy labels which I am trying to organize but my inbox is a complete mess right now so please bear with me while I sort through it all.

I really thought this might just stay on my laptop forever but seeing how many people actually care about this cabinet issue is honestly overwhelming. It feels like we are finally moving past the silence and into a space where people aren't afraid to say that we need better rules for these bottles.

I just lost a friend of mine this week to an overdose of prescription drugs. This could not have come at a better time.

I sign this in honor of all my friends I have lost to prescription drugs. I sign this in honor of my sister, who is struggling for sobriety.

Glad someone is finally talking about this! It is such a huge problem in our town and nobody wants to admit it.

My cousin overdosed last year and it completely wrecked our family. Something has to change because these meds are way too easy to get.
