Ward: *sees the bloodstains*

(I’m glad I can finally use some of these reference pictures I’ve got squirreled away.)

I’m 99% sure that’s hydrocodone. It’s a semi-synthetic opioid used to treat moderate to severe pain, and it’s a main ingredient for Vicodin. It’s some pretty heavy stuff (especially at 20mg), so the fact that Ward eats them like candy and follows with alcohol is seriously scary. He probably has a high tolerance built up if it took the heroin on top of the alcohol and painkillers for him to finally overdose.

You’re definitely right about Ward taking the pills during situations of high anxiety, and narcotic painkillers can have a mental/emotional numbing effect  on top of a physical one. The few times I’ve been on oxycodone I didn’t care wtf was happening around me, I too busy floating on a cloud of bliss. I imagine it’s similar with hydrocodone.
