@Monkeyband Welcome I know what you mean about morphine. I ended up in a conversation with some medical people about drug use in general and said the same. By the time the effects of all the drugs had been talked about I became very clear that none really give you the reactions everyone talks about! I don't even really get the sleepiness side effect either though thankfully it does help with pain.
