'Overwhelmed' IT worker, 37, who was addicted to prescription pain killers found dead at home
A troubled IT trainer with a history of mental health problems who became addicted to prescription painkillers took his own life at his home after becoming 'overwhelmed', an inquest has heard.An inquest into his death heard that he had become addicted to strong painkiller codeine and, at the time of his death, he had amphetamine and methamphetamine in his system.
Instead of making him high, the amphetamines 'calmed him down', he told the inquest. Medication he was prescribed left him 'like a zombie' and he frequently suffered headaches, said Mr Powell. Dr Jessica Greaves, of Lower Broughton Health Centre where Mr Midgley was registered, listed the number of times he was prescribed codeine, often through 'Zapain' tablets with combine codeine and paracetamol.
Concerned doctors reviewed his use of codeine at the end of the year and it appeared to stop but it resumed in 2018 when he complained of pain caused by a boil. Towards the end of 2018 he was prescribed more, some 100 tablets per month over a four month period, after he fell and injured his face.
