Opiates certainly light up your reward system and make the world a more interesting place but unfortunately like all good things it doesnt last and the withdrawal is absolutely brutal. Amphetamine is probably a more reasonable drug for this sort of thing but even then you'll eventually become tolerant and have to stop or escalate doses which is bad mojo if you dont want to become a total junkie.
Its really hard to not abuse these drugs especially when they have a profound effect on your life.
