Morphine is an opiate, making it highly addictive, but used in the right manner can be helpful after surgery under a doctors care.

When morphine enters the bloodstream it creates endorphins and dopamine. This creates a rush of happiness and euphoria. The only way to feel that way again, is to use the drug again.
