I'm too slow to be able to work out
'I can't say I don't dislike it'
at this time of the morning, before tea.

Normally with double negatives I say that it's more or less the same as a positive, but with 3 I have to choose which ones to cancel with a positive. So it becomes (with appropriate reservations)
'I can't say I like it'
or
'I can say I do dislike it.'
Of course you may not have meant what you said?
Not that it matters.
Maybe I should just go back to bed?

Anyway, acupuncture had often caused euphoria in me. It hasn't lasted very long (no surprises there) but has been quite real. There is, of course, a huge difference between practitioners, even when treating the same complaint.

Some people say it's endorphins.
