Remember opioid abuse and withdrawal assessment by the poppy-droid abused making a withdrawal to pay back the assess-man drug dealer. Assessment findings when one is abusing opioids includes a state of euphoria, shown by the U-flowers the assess-man is holding. Patients may also present with miosis, shown by the mice-eyes, which is constricted pupils, as well as&nbsp;CNS depression, shown by the down-arrow CNS-brain. In contrast, abuse withdrawal causes symptoms such as yawning, shown by the yawning goose covered in goosebumps, another term for gooseflesh in which the skin appears with bumps and erect hairs. They may also present with sweating, shown by the sweaty sweatband, and rhinorrhea, the runny-nose. Some also present with&nbsp;kicking movements, shown by the poppy kicking. Lastly, the medication naloxone, shown by the nail-lock, is an opioid antagonist and can be used to reverse the effects of narcotic drugs.&nbsp; So in short, opioid abuse can manifest with symptoms like euphoria, miosis, and CNS depression. Abuse withdrawal symptoms include yawning, gooseflesh, sweating, rhinorrhea, and kicking movements. Naloxone can be used to help reverse the effects of opioids.

Poppy-droid has no money in his bank account left which is really a problem because he needs to withdraw some cash to pay back his Assess-man drug dealer. Assess-man is tired of frontin' the chump poppy-droid so he cuts him off of his supply of U-flowers and has his gang beat him up. First Mice-eyes punches him so hard that his CNS-brain falls down and out of his poppy head. The next guy to give him a beating hits him for so long that he grows tired and Yawns. He is the Goosebumps and he don't care that poppy is Sweating. He just knocks the snot out of his nose. Then Poppy starts kicking for dear life because these baddies are about to lock him away for good with a sexy little Nail-lock. Moral of the story is, don't be like Poppy and abuse opioids.
