Derived from the poppy plant, opiates are a psychoactive substance sometimes used medically to treat pain, but are more often used illegally for recreational purposes. Opiates directly affect the central nervous system, causing users to experience hyperactivity, panic attacks, restlessness, increased heart rate, paranoia, hallucinations, and erratic moods and behaviors. These drugs are highly addictive because they rewire the brain to seek continued use. Long term abuse can lead to depression and anxiety disorders, cardiovascular problems, and psychosis.
