actually, it does have something in it that lifts mood and has AD properties. you are right, it is a synthetic opiate, but is also noncontrolled and per FDA, NONaddctive
however, when you take it, you don't get euphoria, like you do with opiates per se, you get a more positive outlook, a contentness, a focus, and energy, although nothing like vicodin or coke.
maybe it doesn't for everyone, but for me (day four off 15-30 a day cold turkey), it DID have AD properties. that is why the mental wds are so much worse than just opiates (and i have also gone cold turkey off about 400mg hydro per day, and this is worse)
