"It's not a knock-you-on-your-ass sort of thing, not like smoking opium. In fact, a lot of people will tell you they forget that they are high. It starts with a tickling feeling in the stomach that then rises up into the shoulders and head - this feeling of just . . . joy. You feel optimistic about things; energetic but at the same time relaxed. You'll remain functional: you won't say anything stupid and you'll remember everything that happens. You won't nod out, though you will feel a strong desire to close your eyes. Any pain you have will go away; the tea will also relieve exogenously caused depression. That's why poppy tea is served at funerals in the Middle East. It can make sadness go away."
Further suggested that alcohol would make a better solvent for extracting alkaloids from poppies than water, which made sense: laudanum is a name for just such a tincture of opium. "You can get the equivalent of a shot of heroin from a good green pod dissolved in a glass of vodka," Duke told me. "So you can see why they might be concerned."
