Opioids and affect

Chapter 10 endnote 18, from How Emotions are Made: The Secret Life of the Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett.
Some context is:
Opioids increase during placebo and turn down nociception, and likewise decrease during nocebo effects, earning them the moniker of “your internal medicine cabinet.”
Actually, to be more specific, opioids seem to dial down pain. (Pain is constructed when nociception is conceptualized, and includes intense affective features). They seem to be particularly important for the affective component of pain, and therefore may be relevant more generally for interoception and body-budgeting (for example, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]).
