Who Answers?
The small city of Tarpon Springs, Florida has the largest proportion of Greek Americans among its 25,577 residents than any other city in the United States. This is due to John Cocoris introducing the sponge diving industry in 1905 and recruiting many crew and divers from his homeland of Greece. Although a lovely town to live in, Tarpon Springs has not been spared the epidemic that requires so many methadone clinics in Florida. Anyone with an addiction to opioids here should accept help from a methadone clinic Tarpon Springs and turn their life around as soon as possible. The longer someone waits to seek treatment, the more dangerous addiction becomes. Chronic opioid use results in a tolerance that compels a person to increase their dosage in order to experience the same euphoric high, or to merely avoid experiencing painful withdrawals. Eventually, the individual will increase their dosage to an overdose level that will cause serious malfunctioning in one or more bodily systems, most often the respiratory system. Opioid overdoses can often cause permanent organ damage or death.
