>Logically, if opiates acted as an A/D then I should not be in need of the prozac, remeron and lamictal. So, you can draw you own conclusion.
The thing is - I think that opiate/opioid type medications which relieve depression in various people have one simple explanation. Those people have genetically low or "damaged" natural opiate (endorphins etc.) production. I also suffer from depression and morphine, even at highest doses, does nothing for my depression.
