Oddly I’ve only tried MDMA a few times and it never really worked. There’s some anecdotal evidence that it doesn’t work for those with bipolar which I do have, that might be the one drug I could be in charge of with no temptation actually
MDMA doesn’t work for me, nor does cocaine. What does that say about me? I don’t care to be honest… but the pro is, I will never get addicted to either of those, which is nice, I suppose. Anyway, what were we taking about?
Hey, just in case you haven’t heard this before - maybe book an ADD/ADHD test if some of the indicators resonate with you.
I have a diagnosed friend who also said the same thing about stimulants not having the expected effect. It’s apparently common for drugs like cocaine and MDMA in people with ADHD.
That’s true for cocaine, ice and speed (which is just a different name for Adderall), which act on the dopamine receptor. But MDMA works by releasing serotonin, so it’s not affected by ADHD
Thanks, very nice of you to send me these links. The thing is for me, I refuse to see my ADHD tendencies (never officially diagnosed, but pretty sure) as any kind of illness or shortcoming at all. It’s just the way I am. Fortunately I have the luck to live a life where it doesn’t affect me negatively, so I don’t see a reason to question it.
The links talk about cocaine having a calming affect instead of a stimulating one. That’s funny, because I’m not even sure if it has an effect at all, I’m to dense to really notice any effect. To each his own.
By the way, i just came home from a nights out and I’m on amphetamine, which definitely has an effect I notice. It cures my anxiety and lets me feel at ease. I’d never write these posts without it. Drugs are strange…
That’s a perfectly healthy & grounded view, my friend. :) Apologies if I came across as pushy or like something that “should” be done.
It’s awesome that it doesn’t impact your daily life!
Drugs are certainly an adventure and hit everyone differently. Sometimes the adventure is life changing, be it bad or good.
Wishing you the best too! Hope it’s been, and continues to be, an awesome night. Thanks for the wholesome exchange <3
I mean someone’s gotta be in charge of MDMA, and or Ketamine at those therapy places. I do love the idea of someone coming to my desk for 1 drug please
Definitely got the experience required for the job

Eh… we may be bipolar then… weird.

Autism, ADHD, bipolar and those on antidepressants have rather minimal MDMA effects

I wish you the best my friend!
Knowing more about yourself and giving yourself more tools doesn’t have anything to do with seeing it as a “shortcoming”

Very interesting. Ever tried psilocybin?
I love how “being in charge of drugs” is being talked about like it’s an actual job within a company lol
