As someone that's had back pain my entire adult life, not everyone has the same constitution. Understanding, of course, that not all pain is 'the same'. My level of tolerance is likely because I understand the /significant/ risks of addiction. I'd rather not be in pain, obviously, but not at the risk of being a junkie. I definitely get the impression that a lot of people sucked into pain med addiction are not the sort that have had a lot of previous experience with pain. Making it doubly irresponsible to prescribe such highly addictive medications for them.
