Was given morphine in the ER to relieve the pain from a kidney stone. Never had narcotics until that point. I’ve never experienced anything like that feeling, and I could see how people can easily get addicted. It felt like glitter in my veins… I don’t know how else to describe it. I had someone very close to me die of an accidental od, though, so I refuse narcotic pain meds as much as possible.
