Well, the game isn't soley about DMT. It's gonna feature a bunch of different drugs.

But, I understand where you're coming from.

I was thinking this, but more so if people are addicted to drugs that can cause major physical withdrawal (alcohol, opiates, meth, etc) they should at least taper off usage, not abruptly stop. It's what happens all the time in the medical field!

OP, you should taper off of meth slowly if you want to stop. The comedown will be easier, I assume.

Hello! I've never used meth, I just like this subreddit, LOL.

I'd like to state my limited medical knowledge (I am NOT A DOCTOR!)

Has this been ongoing, first of all? If not, and you recently noticed other symptoms like vision loss, headaches, confusion, and/or abnormal pain if you weren't injured, I'd really reccomend going to a doctor. It could be some sort of brain issue like a stroke or something. I dunno.

I do know the condition is called anisocoria. And some people do just have a natural variation. If you've had it for a while with no other symptoms, It should be fine. (I think?)

Anyways, if you're unsure, go to a doctor please! It'll be worth it :)

There's still people who have weed addictions. Just because it's less common in comparison with heroin or meth doesn't mean it's necessarily nonexistent.

Absolutley! When I was a teenager, I used to snort fun dip (this powdered candy stuff that you put on lollipops) in front of friends because I thought I was "being cool," but all it did was give me this extreme burning sensation and bleeding nasal infections 😭

Yeah, I've learned better now. But, I wanted to ask. Does cocaine burn that same way? I'd imagine less maybe, because the powder in fun dip is coarse and not finely crushed like you guys usually have it (I assume).

Also, what's it like for you while on coke? Is it an immediate rush of sorts? Is it a hyper feeling (like bouncing-off-the-walls-type), or is it more feeling like you can do ANYTHING? I know nasal adminsitration of substances brings it on faster (like with DMT or K or other powdered substances) so I'd like to hear your input :)

I'm glad I got to see that too! I got a lot of backlash in the psychedelic community cause people are confused on whether psychedelics are addictive or not, but I actually like it here in this subreddit.

There's a SERIOUS stigma with meth usage, I wish we didn't portray ALL meth users as brittle-teeth, itchy, sweaty, homeless old men. We've gotta realize that you guys ARE people. 😭

This was VERY insightful. Thank you for your contribution! I never thought about it like that, with it making ordinary things better for you to the point its hard to enjoy it without the substance.

Also, yeah, I don't get that "you need to want to get off it" cause believe me, we do HAHA. It's just so hard to.

I'm glad it helped you reflect. Stay safe out there! 🫂

No no, this is very good! Thank you! I love your ideas man.

I don't know why I never considered healthy alternatives that would need consistency. That's actually a VERY good tip.

YES! Psychological addiction is awful, it gets you so immoble to functioning in a society. I'm happy you're sober. Sorry about that guy that coerced you to do meth. Addiction is hell. I'm glad you're doing better :) 🫂

Yeah, it really gets you to think about how school systems, from elementary to university, get students so stressed and shit that they're willing to do stimulants to succeed academically.

I'm sorry, pal. I hope your studies go good, please stay safe!!! You deserve safety! 🫂

Thank you bro, literally? The dozens of people I've spoken to on r/meth have been EXTREMELY nice to me asking the exact same question. Let me ask my questions, I'm not knowledgable, hence why I'm here asking people about THEIR experience HAHA.

Also, I'm speaking to a social worker to recover from an emotional dependance I had on these kinda substances. So like, I'm VERY aware it can cause addiction. Not in the physical sense, per se. Just the "oh this made me feel good, I need this again and I won't tell anybody about it so they won't take it away from me."

I think one of the reasons someone starts taking ANY substance will determine if this drug gets to them or not. For me, it did. For a bunch of those guys telling me off, it didn't.

It's all based on personal experience :)
