Opiates can certainly make you more sociable and, as Q said, more patient.
I can remember being sufficiently chatty to be invited into people's homes to have cups of tea, and having a chat with the old lady who is watering her plants in the front garden.
The overwhelming sanity opiates give you, making you feel that you can participate in normal life.
Instant zen, in a way, at least to begin with.Your brain changes in response, and dose increases do not fix it, but that takes a fair while.
