A safe space to talk about drug use and share knowledge
Most overrated/underrated drugs?
Most Overrated: Cocaine. Expensive as all hell, only lasts for like an hour, and near impossible to get stuff that hasn't been stepped on a million times. Also the comedown blows (heh)
Most Underrated: GHB. Hard to get your hands on, but take a low dose of this stuff and it makes you feel like a champ. It's not the spooky knock out drug you hear about, just don't mix it with other sedatives. It also helps you sleep like a champ and doesn't fuck with sleep architecture like benzos, z-drugs or alcohol does.
Feel free to chime in/call me an idiot/whatever




Weed is waaaay overrated to me lol.
I enjoy weed, but I agree it's effects could be pretty disappointing if you've never tried it and just go off all the stuff about it in films and media. It's also far more habit-forming/psychologically addicting than people will admit. After a several months long bout of heavy daily smoking, I experienced unpleasant physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms. Granted they're probably a joke compared to alcohol or opiate withdrawals but I wish it was something more people in the pot-positive community talked about.
I agree. Did you know it takes like two weeks before it stops affecting your mood/thought process?
That wouldn't surprise me. I'd wager that time frame varies based on your length/quantity of consumption, but for me it felt like it took several weeks before I felt "normal" again. Granted, I had been in such a haze for so long I might've forgot what "normal" even felt like.
Overrated - I would go a step further than OP and say non psychedelic amphetamines. I don't like the jitterness and actually prefer something like modafinil when I need to concentrate as it's more subtle and works better
Underrated - Mescaline. I have no idea why it isn't more popular especially as a party drug. It's a wonderful drug. It feels like MDMA-lite with some cool visuals. No crash and smooth unless you take it through peyote then you're going to get some nauseau. It's really hard to have a bad trip on Mescaline since it puts you in a wonderful mood. Yeah you can get some RC that'll give you similar effects like the 2C family or whatever but Mescaline is still the best.
Man, I've been really wanting to try mescaline. I think you've cemented it for me. I need to get more serious about finding some.
Most overrated: DMT. I had several experiences with high quality vaporized DMT and every time the first half seemed like my mind was making me pay for my bad deeds before getting into the psychedelic bliss. I never got the balls to have a breakthrough because of the horridness of the first half though, though, so that's maybe why I found that it wasn't worthwhile compared to all the other psychedelics that I took.
Most underrated: Jenkem. Really, you should try it.
