Can we please nationalize them now, so we have a post office again?

The real punchline is that if you just let the DXM metabolize into DXO, it's still so weak compared to other NMDA receptor antagonists that it barely matters unless you're super sensitive to it. The 2D6 inhibition is basically a gimmick that allowed big pharma to turn an OTC miracle antidepressant into an expensive prescription product.

I wonder why we always lose rights.

Yeah, that's my point. The government determined they were safe, fun, and good for mental health, so they had to clamp down on that shit.

Do you have a point? Yeah, somebody developed a problem while self-medicating with something that has only recently been considered to have meaningful therapeutic value,* I'm shocked. The woman you're judging was basically a citizen scientist by accident because conventional psych care sucks.

*This is not an ass-pull; guess what the actual effective ingredient in Auvelity is.

If you're bothered by "head spins," I'm not sure you know what getting high is.

The problem has always been that nobody pays enough attention to their kids to give them the slightest amount of social stimulation. The new medium is always evil because the kids are always into it and parents don't want to parent.

It was always wrong to acclimate kids to work colonizing their home life. "Preparing" people for the workplace just means conditioning them to believe their suffering is deserved.

The root words tell you what they do: show you your mind. If you didn't have fun, you're boring.

Emotion and culture have nothing to do with it. The government studied psychedelics extensively in MK-ULTRA, and when they found out they usually do very much the opposite of what they wanted, they decided that we couldn't have them without a huge fuss and making sure dosage is controlled to have as subtle an effect as possible. You either get barely half of a nothing or you get blackout, no talking to aliens allowed.

NMDA receptor antagonists are safe, fun when used correctly, and pretty much the only psychoactive drug people should be bothering with. It's unfortunate that we have let Big Pharma do bullshit to it to finally get them in the Overton window, but we've known this for a long time.

1) "quickly authorized study" is not "quick study"

2) generally speaking, this entire class of drugs does not have lingering effects unless you make a regular habit of taking too much and traumatizing yourself with it

Dextromethorphan is available over the counter, and at the dose that's supposedly for suppressing a cough, (which it is clinically proven it does not do) it is a very effective antidepressant with practically no side effects after the first couple weeks. Because it's so weak compared to other NMDA receptor antagonists, you can dial in a very precise macrodose for anything from "I just think music is great" to "time loops" to "talking to the god in your head" to "kissing the void." It lasts six hours and has more of a body load than other such drugs, so it's not always fun, but if you need the vision quest kind of neuroplasticity, you can get there dirt cheap, completely legal, and very safely. You can also just take the normal dose twice a day and hold your suffering much more lightly.

The main problem is finding it without tylenol or antihistamines added. These days you usually have to order it online to get it pure.

thank you for having such an accurate name

presumably so that dipshit nerd psychiatrists can claim it's not a medicine for the same reason they complain about weed
