I will increase my B1 intake to 300mg a day. As for Morphine, doesn't it act in a similar way to alcohol? Opiates depress the CNS --- same as alcohol. Certainly worth a try.

My wife and doctor have suggested I see a psychologist, but frankly, I don't trust them. I have never had a positive experience with one.
No--- morphine sits on specific receptors( opiate) in the brain.
Alcohol is generalized and considered an anesthetic.
This explains alcohol:

They are also metabolized differently, by the liver.
Morphine has a complex metabolism.

Alcohol being a very small simple 2 carbon with one OH -- has the H removed by dehydrogenases, converting it to an aldehyde. This metabolism is moderated by thiamine. Alcohol is very fat soluble and enters the CNS quickly..that is why it is considered an anesthetic.

I am unaware of a supplement to minimize morphine side effects.
