What will happen if you smoke opium?

Wouldn't advise it: any more than I would advise taking an opioid by any other means for no good medical reason. All opioids can cause a euphoric sensation - the "rush" - but at the cost of a horrendous physical dependency that, in many, quickly turns into addiction. The number of people in the US with this addiction has already increased ten-fold because of prescription opiates - don't add yourself to statistics.
