I don't get how people can become depressed, when we live in the century of Fentanyl, easy access to alcohol and amusement arcades.
Try a new sport! Like drunk driving
Its legal with a fees
Try electrical engineering! All you need is a socket and a fork!

Some of you kids have never been to Nebraska and it shows.... Don't even know how to grab a six pack and enjoy an evening on the back roads after work.
My dearest friend for the past 25 years became a drug addict. She died of an OD on Saturday. Left two young children with no parents. (Dad left years ago). I witnessed her spiral into addiction and destruction over the past 2 years. I couldn’t stop it. I tried.
If you want to become an addicted to something, please try masturbation or video games.
Honestly though hallucinogens really need to be more mainstream. Acid completely changed my outlook on life and give me a perspective of life and myself I would never have gotten through therapy or any other depression suppressants.
It's also cheap as balls if you find a good plug. 10 bucks for an all day ticket is wild you just have to be with someone you trust with your life who won't fuck with you.
Let's not forget that acid can be dangerous, I'm still recovering from a traumatic experience I had with acid 10 years ago, I still get flashbacks and panic attacks due to it. I also stopped smoking weed because it would trigger the flashbacks.
I also stopped smoking weed because it would trigger the flashbacks.
I had this years ago after a series of bad trips (the common denominator turned out to be the presence of a certain person, then things got better). Anyway, hope you can get through to the other side.
I will never forget the time I did twice as much acid as I intended and it ended up being a heroic dose complete with ego death and everything - not fun. Now I'm very cautious and typically only do microdoses.
There are people trying pretty hard to make that happen, though mostly in the context of supervised medical interventions.
Which I'm here for - while a lot of people do OK (fantastically even) with less structured psychedelic experiences, many do not. A really bad trip can do a number on you, sometimes for a long while.
I would suggest growing your own mushrooms as the safest way to be sure they aren't tainted, it's pretty easy (the hardest part is keeping things sterile) and you can grow quite a bit at once in a small footprint. In my jurisdiction it's not even illegal so long as you destroy the final product upon maturity.
Destruction of the final product is also very easy, there are some strong chemicals capable of breaking it down in your own stomach.
Agreed, doesnt work for everyone tho. I've done acid a couple times and it didn't really change anything for me, other than the actual effects at the time. Perhaps it gave me a slightly larger understanding of the situation we're all in and how the future is likely to look, but that already weighed on my mind heavily and just makes me sad.
This seems pretty fucking dark even for a shitpost.
Probably because the high isnt permanent and the higher you go the farther you fall. Long falls hurt a helluva lot
They're joking of course. Nobody wants this life.
I've seen plenty of people who think they could take hard, addictive drugs and not get addicted, or that the addiction would be a small price to pay for the highs of the drug. Plenty of people have far too much self confidence for their small understanding of the situation. It's why drugs like heroin are still around; if everyone intrinsically understood that they're not worth it, they'd have disappeared a long time ago.
Vitamin D deficiency is a silent widespread issue for a lot of people. Had a battle with it a few years ago. Was tired no matter how much sleep I got, had negative motivation to do anything. Libido all but disappeared, and finally sought a doctor visit when I started have suicidal thoughts.
Turns out I just needed more sunshine and 50kiU once a week for a month.
Vitamin D toxicity is also a big problem, and doctors have been overprescribing supplementary vitamin D for years. Feels almost like a joke, you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Deep down, I know the cure for my depression is cocaine or meth. I just am too depressed to get any of it and I don't think mania suits my vibe.
Edit: MDMA would also likely work, but that drug is almost a literal fast acting antidepressant similar in effect to SSRI's so I think it hits the nail too hard on the head.
i mean psilocybin (administered by a professional and in a safe environment) is actually documented to work for some people, so maybe hold out for that instead of drugs that may well be 50% drain cleaner depending on where you get it?
Its what literally changed my life. I was really socialy awkward, spend most of my lide behind a computer, and when I managed to go out to parties in a subculture scene parties I loved, I couldnt talk to anyone, had a few beers awkwardly in a corner and went home.
Then I met someone who introduced me to MDMA. That happened almost 8 years ago, and now I am an organizer of 2/3 of the same scene regular parties in our city, Im helping and DJing on a festival that happens here, and am living my best life in that regard. All thanks to that one best friend who got me something that made me talk to, and get to actually know people in the scene in the extent that I always wanted, and get comfortable enough that I no longer need to be high to interact with anyone. Since now they are friends and regulars, and not random people I wanted to talk to, but was afraid of approaching.
But, it wasn't as easy as it sounds. I was always trying to be responsible and cautious, and In did get bordeline to addiction in the process, which I was fortunately able to recognize early and put a stop to it by getting help in a adictiology nonprofit. It was never bad, more like a precaution. And I caught it in the best possible moment. I'll never forget my first group session, where literally everyone else said "I'm 35+, I used to take stuff at parties for fun when I was 25, and then I ended for 10 years in meth...".
Everyone had similar story. And I went "Well, I'm 25, and I take stuff on parties for fun...". And that was a really strong lesson, where I realized I'm stopping a really huge problem at exactly the right time.
So, it might help. It is definitely fun, but it is so hard to not end up badly. You will need a lot of luck, especially if you are exploring it on your own. I still take things on parties, but with personal experience about the dangers it has. And getting that, is something that no one can give you, unless you see it for yourself. And for most of the people, that comes too late. I was lucky, you probably won't be. But in conclusion - drugs are amazing, and have changed my life. Its a shame that personal experience will probably vary.
For anxiety cases like yours, something that is very seritonigernic (which MDMA is) is very helpful. For unipolar depression without anxiety it may be just a nice manic episode. For type 1 bipolar depression, it might be a nice way to get yourself involuntarily committed, arrested, or, if you're really having a good time, both.
There are amphetamine antidepressants. You can ask your doctor about it (e.g. bupropion, which is not addictive).
the cure for my depression is cocaine or meth
Adding short bursts of mania to my episodes of depression, because nothing improves my overall mood than a huge rush of endorphins followed by a sharp crash and an aching emptiness.
Don’t forget the painful regrets of your actions while high!
Don't be a weakling and take MDMA to cure it. Real men learn how to live with your depression /s
Hey I'm not an addict. I can stop having a good time whenever I want.
It's also feeling tired all of the time, losing interest in activities you previously enjoyed, not experiencing pleasure in sex, unexplained weight gain, listlessness, and only seeing the bad in yourself and in the world.
drunk driving ♥️🥰😍🥰💕
Have you tried generating ai porn. That's pretty fun
More states are banning porn. Anyone that doesn't already have a locally hosted ai porn generator is just asking for blue balls at this point.
One must be always drunk, that's all that matters.
But what with?
With wine, with poetry, or with virtue, as you choose.
But get drunk.
Amen. Virtue is the bomb, but also rum
Word
Those will just make you depressed in other ways
Sounds expensive lol
Depends on the drug.
bro please i promise its not addictive if you boof it please bro this is a different strain
Now nothing is fun and nobody trusts to not to steal anything that isn't nailed down.
Randomly read a click bait article the other day on "How famous people died". The older ones were alcohol + drug prescription overdose, while the newer ones were fentanyl + cocaine + alcohol.
Remember people, stay hydrated! Drink your drugs with water like you're meant to!
Because some people think that getting high as a kite is a suitable way to not be depressed.
Alcohol is a depressant my man.
Neurologically speaking, so in a different context, yeah, but neurological depression also seems to lead to actual depression, the mood disorder, which also show up as neurological depression.
We really need better imaging tools to measure neurotransmitter activity, would make for several advancements I'd say
Abuse of any psychoactive drug on the regular leads to depression. It isn't just this concept of depressant or stimulant or even related in any way. Any stimhead can tell you all about the suicidal ideation inducing comedowns and inability to get anything done after stopping use.
Abuse of any psychoactive drug on the regular leads to depression.
That's a biased generalisation.
While abusers of psychedelics are rare, they're generally manic and psychotic moreso than depressed.
Yes, depression can be caused by any addiction and abusing stims can cause a lack of neurotransmitter due to exhausting the resources for the body to do so.
It's a bit different than using something that's a direct depressant though.
I was talking about how hard it was for me to cut 5 pounds for my fight. This one guy told me I should take up meth to make weight. Genuinely look at him with utter confusion.
Had a lady demand I hire more meth addicted as ''they work really hard for nothing''
I declined her business advice.
He's right. They used to put meth in chocolate and marketed it as a great way for housewives to lose weight while keeping their home tidy.
Didnt know about housewifechocolate i only knew Panzerschokolade, but it wasnt for the wifes at home. But i mean who doesnt need a wife at home who is working at home and still has the energy to work you
Alcohol is a depressant ?
I've heard that drugs, including alcohol, trigger the chemicals in our brains that make us feel "happy". After the effects wear off, our natural "happiness" level is even lower than it was before. This is why we feel the need to use the drug again, and over time, we also have to take more of it to feel the same level of "happiness".
Doesn't "depressant" have more to do with your body's functions and not necessarily the depression we think about? Been a long time since high school health and EMT classes.
Yes, but if you become an alcoholic you will be depressed and feel like a piece of shit regardless.
8.5 years sober, thank fucking god.
Crucially, it doesn't seem like one while you're high on it. For most people anyways.
if you think drug euphorias are high.
Just wait until you find out what the lows are like.
Man, I've been tempted. I've started saying I'd try a drug if it was ever offered, because I'm too much of a coward to figure out how to get it myself. I have an additive personality, so I know it would kill me and, honestly, I'm fine with that.
Green Maeng Dae and THC gummies are all that keeps me going some days
Kratom cut my drinking by 80%. Haven't had a single beer at home alone in years. Still go out occasionally with friends, so not a recluse or anything, just the excess stuff.
Everything is less fun since I got clean.
Silver or gold spray paint in a sock is good for staying frosty.
Alcohol will just make you more depressed eventually. Haven't tried fentany.... yetl, will slam one iv style and report back
Omigod don't. It's so bad.
NGL, if she showed up to help me I'd demand to know who funded all that shit and why they couldn't have spent that money on actual public healthcare.
