feeling no pain

Drunk and comfortable

Feeling no pain describes being drunk or high enough that discomfort doesn't register.

The phrase often appears with ironic understatement—someone described as feeling no pain is typically quite intoxicated: By the third round, he was feeling no pain.

It can also describe the numbing effect of anesthesia or painkillers.
