Serious question- are the occasional use of opiates healthy?
I like doing them sometimes, but they are so fucking good that it might be better not to dabble in them.
What would you say Anon's? Stick to the green?

I don't see a problem with using them occasionally, I do. Plus I don't have many good connects for opiates vs. weed/psychedelics so when I can get them I stock up and when I run out they're gone for awhile.

Health wise, opiates are virtually harmless.

That is a common rumor, however there are many journal articles that say otherwise. Here is one:
1: Neuropsychopharmacology. 2006 May;31(5):1036-47.
Profile of executive and memory function associated with amphetamine and opiate dependence.Ersche KD, Clark L, London M, Robbins TW, Sahakian BJ.
Department of Psychiatry, School of Clinical Medicine, University of Cambridge, Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, UK.
Cognitive function was assessed in chronic drug users on neurocognitive measures of executive and memory function. Current amphetamine users were contrasted with current opiate users, and these two groups were compared with former users of these substances (abstinent for at least one year). Four groups of participants were recruited: amphetamine-dependent individuals, opiate-dependent individuals, former users of amphetamines, and/or opiates and healthy non-drug taking controls. Participants were administered the Tower of London (TOL) planning task and the 3D-IDED attentional set-shifting task to assess executive function, and Paired Associates Learning and Delayed Pattern Recognition Memory tasks to assess visual memory function. The three groups of substance users showed significant impairments on TOL planning, Pattern Recognition Memory and Paired Associates Learning. Current amphetamine users displayed a greater degree of impairment than current opiate users. Consistent with previous research showing that healthy men are performing better on visuo-spatial tests than women, our male controls remembered significantly more paired associates than their female counterparts. This relationship was reversed in drug users. While performance of female drug users was normal, male drug users showed significant impairment compared to both their female counterparts and male controls. There was no difference in performance between current and former drug users. Neither years of drug abuse nor years of drug abstinence were associated with performance. Chronic drug users display pronounced neuropsychological impairment in the domains of executive and memory function. Impairment persists after several years of drug abstinence and may reflect neuropathology in frontal and temporal cortices.
With regards to the OP's question, nothing good can come from opiate use. No one has been enlightened in any way. A lot of people have turned into worthless assholes due to opiate use. People who are on opiates are not as friendly or cool as people who are not on opiates. Opiates are a cheap party trick, they do make you feel good, but there are more important things in life.
Stick to the green, in my opinion.
I use opiates about once a year, usually when I am sick or in pain. Honestly the annoying itchiness outweighs the good feeling most of the time.

IMO the only non-risky use of opiates is for legitimate pain management. Stick to the green.

That could also suggest that these people had sub-par brains before picking up drugs, there's nothing there to show definitively that amphetamines or opiates caused the impairment.

I think if your will is good you should be fine. I dabble whenever i can get them for free and when i can't, even though there is a ready supply in my house because both parents have knee problems, and i can get them as cheap as .25/mg, i say no.
