    Addiction in America: ‘Make recovery more accessible than the illicit drug supply’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    This is the final installment of a four-part series. Sherry Lynn James fished out the dime bag of opiates she bought on a whim outside a Costa Mesa methadone clinic. It was March 2024. She and her son Lee had just returned to his Huntington Beach home. She had stuffed it into her purse while waiting outside the clinic for Lee to get his “observed daily dose.” Anyone sitting in that parking lot might have been a mark: Dealers often prowl the perimeters around methadone clinics, hunting for the wa

They often troll the shadows of America’s methadone clinics, tempting patients aiming to chase sobriety with one more mind-blowing high. Two years ago, Sherry Lynn James was in such a space — the parking lot of a methadone clinic in Costa Mesa, California. Once, James herself was addicted to opioids, but she’d kicked that habit decades ago. On this day, she was riding shotgun to support her son, Lee, who was

    Public payments, private profits: A half-century of methadone in America (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    This is the first installment of a four-part series. They must be observed taking their daily medicine, at least in the beginning. The clinician often wears a white lab coat and works behind protective glass. She’ll pour a dose into a small plastic cup – it’s often reddish and clear, like cold medicine – then pass it through a low opening. The patient, who may be fidgety or testy or dangerously late for work, may throw it back with a resentful snap, as if it were a shot of cheap whisky. It is ap
