Opioid pain killers not only stop pain but induce strong feelings of euphoria, warmth and a dream-like sense that you're floating in a sea of nothingness. Physical addiction wont occur until a user suddenly stops after a binge or period of heavy, frequent dose administration. Overdoses happen when people ingest much more than their standard dose, usually due to respiratory depression or complications of a severly slowed heart rate.

If your talking about opioid painkillers, i'll tell you about my situation. I was in a work-related accident a few years ago. I fractured 3 vertebrae in my lower back, and was bed ridden in the hospital for a few weeks. During this time I was given IV Morphine to relieve the pain. It didn't relieve the pain, it just made it more bearable. Fast forward to now, I wear a Fentanyl patch, and take Percocet as needed. Weed works much, much better, but I have a hard time finding it, so I'm stuck being addicted to these painkillers, which dont get rid of the pain like pot does, they just make it more bearable. I would love to give up the opiates and just use pot, but since I live in the USA, I cant do that. I am very pissed off and bitter over this, its like a hot poker in my brain I get so mad. I've found a mom with a good rep though, that has dutch bud, I've placed my first order a few days ago, so hopefully i'll get some better relief soon, we'll see how it goes. Peace (and dont hurt your back, its a pain!!)

Yeah, but thats only true for people that dont suffer from pain. If you have pain, all they do is kill pain (barely) with not much euphoria. peace.
