Endorphines
Endorphins are morphine-like chemicals produced by the body that help diminish pain while triggering positive feelings. They're sometimes referred to as the brain's "feel-good" chemicals, and are the body's natural painkillers. They're released from the pituitary gland of the brain during periods of strenuous exercise, emotional stress, pain, and orgasm.
