Even so, emotional trauma needs to handled with therapy or SSRI's typically. Using opiates for it is, frankly, the stupidest thing imaginable.

Why? If opiates can help a person psychologically as at the same time it is aleviating their physical pain..what is wrong with that?
Killing two birds with one stone?

You're solution is to add yet another drug because you are too upset that a person who has experienced some terrible trauma or pain, could ever dare feel any "high" from a drug. Incredible.

The 'high' leads to addiction. We want neutrality. SSRI's offer that.

Feeling euphoric is not a medicinal thing. It's not even a part of this thread.

We're trying to talk about improving medication to avoid addiction. You come on with this notion of how getting off on the medication is good.

Well, sorry. That's not medicine, that's an agenda.
