As someone with a chronic pain condition.


No. Fucking. Shit.

Preferable to opiates, though.

Edit: ... Ehhh. Yeah? Maybe? Although, yeah, it's basically a more powerful version of a distraction. It's all still there beckoning for attention. Oh, hey, basically what opiates do. *cough*

The flip side of this is that romantic love is a literal addiction, and the physical aspect of heartbreak is basically withdrawal.

Maybe that explains why so many people who have undisciplined emotions can only do the honeymoon phase of a relationship?
