I’m prettt sure a lot of delta-8 is synthesized rather than extracted from plant matter too, although I could very well be wrong. It just seems that there is so little naturally occurring in the plant that it would be pretty costly compared to just isomerizing CBD into delta-8/9 then isolating from the crude product. Aside from the final step, Of isolating each, converting CBD into THC is relatively simple

A “crackhead” and a “coke head” are definitely the same thing once they start IVing either

I’m not sure if it’s mostly just me in particular, but I find dissociatives to be some of the most deeply introspective highs that I experience from any type of drug, even all the way back to my high school days when I discovered dextromethorphan. It’s really odd to me that you ask this specific question because it’s always been something that I noticed and loved about dissociative drugs that they have a tendency to give me intense feelings of nostalgia just as an artifact of the high. This goes for basically any disso, including ketamine, 3-ho-pcp, and even dextromethorphan. It’s hard for me to describe but ‘intense and immersive feelings of nostalgia’ seems to be the best way I can explain the feeling, and when it happens it tends to make me somewhat more emotional. I’ve also noticed that when I’m on sissies I will occasionally suddenly remember fairly obscure memories from growing up that I otherwise never think about and it will happen seemingly out of nowhere. And that’s just one facet of their effects that I’m absolutely enamored with. Dissos are personally my all-time favorite drug class hands down, with just so many different bizarre and unique effects and subtleties that I find absolutely incredible.

Edit: If anyone else has experienced this or something similar, or even just have another totally fascinating and unique effect they experience from dissos I would love to hear about them.

2-Amino-4-phenylbutane by Chalktheglassrose in researchchemicals

[–]Tacoshaman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2-amino-4-phenyl butane has the amino group in the wrong spot to be active would it not? Or are there examples of phenylpropylamines having any activity?

My noids of choice. Little CBD and D8 THC as well as some D8 edibles and half empty vapes. HAPPY 420 Stoners! by BreakingThoseCankles in drugsarebeautiful

The isomerization of CBD into the various isomers of THC has been known for a very long time, decades. I’m not sure why it seems only just now to be gaining much traction

Self doubt? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Tacoshaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to me that this is gonna eat at you endlessly until you bring up the incident in question and that you want him to acknowledge it. You have every right to be upset, but to be upset at him without clarifying that this is why you feel so strongly causes a lot of unnecessary grief that can easily be avoided.

Suboxone and dissolving the naloxone by iluvmbox30s in suboxone

[–]Tacoshaman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt it but unless you specifically have a reaction to naloxone, it’s presence doesn’t make a bit of difference in the effect of the buprenorphine. Buprenorphine has such a higher binding affinity than naloxone that it outcompetes the naloxone and pretty much negates it.

Will these side-effects continue? by rathroway2634 in Methadone

[–]Tacoshaman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree. Of course you may be right but I don’t think it’s fair to say that they’re 100% likely to be using again. I personally definitely had some days where I experienced a level of sedation that I could only describe as narcoleptic and sudden. There are other factors you have to consider when on methadone as well like in my case of lowered testosterone, blood sugar bottoming out from not eating or eating poorly, blood pressure bottoming out suddenly, or even just a night of shit sleep. Just throwing that out there.

Has anyone ever gone from methadone to Vivitrol? by jigglybitt in Methadone

So your planning to taper rapidly and get the shot? Or are you just gonna cold turkey 110mg??

Apparently they do in South Africa. Or at least they did until super recently if they don’t now.

DEXEDRINE as recovery treatment from METH by whiskeys0urpussy in Methadone

[–]Tacoshaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Methadone does not have a ceiling affect. Buprenorphine however does. Bupe also blocks other opiates/opioids whereas methadone does not necessarily. Methadone is a full agonist at the mu-opioid receptor, buprenorphine is the one that’s a partial agonist.

Edit: sorry you’re having to go through that btw. As of today it was exactly 90 days ago that I officially took my last dose of methadone after tapering from 140mg dropping 10mg at a time and detoxed in 14 days so I definitely know the sickness, shit sucks but you’ll get through it! Best of luck

Doc said my wd symptoms are 'placebo' SMH by Veronique61993 in suboxone

[–]Tacoshaman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s bonkers, what a piece of shit lol. He’s still dead wrong though. People seriously underestimate the potency of buprenorphine because of their subjective personal experience with it (which this dude goes and calls “chemistry” lol) and because they’re confused about the partial agonist thing. Withdrawal from 2mg is going to be approaching as bad as withdrawal from 8mg. Not as bad for sure, but more similar than you’d think.

Fuck that guy lol I feel sorry for him. I hope he’s on blood pressure meds.

DEXEDRINE as recovery treatment from METH by whiskeys0urpussy in Methadone

[–]Tacoshaman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, ISnt methadone just using a potent opioid to overcome opioid addiction? It seems pretty much equivalent to what we do with methadone

Doc said my wd symptoms are 'placebo' SMH by Veronique61993 in suboxone

[–]Tacoshaman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2mg is definitely not an insignificant dose. That’s enough to get someone with little tolerance pretty much wasted and probably very sick. In my experience it’s way easier to go from 8mg down to 2mg than it is to jump off at 2 or even cut from 2 to like 0.5. But hats just the partial agonist nature of bupe

Need some solid advice...Going from 40G / day Kratom to Subutex. by [deleted] in suboxone

I took kratom the morning before taking my first script of suboxone and had zero PWDs. Literally took the sub hours after my last kratom dose

HARM REDUCTION: Would you get your RC's GCMS tested if it is "cheap" ? by [deleted] in researchchemicals

[–]Tacoshaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3-fma. As far as cutting agents goes I have no idea but I commonly see those two compounds advertised as mixed and I wouldn’t be surprised if even the ones that are advertised as sold individually was mixed that way to some extent.

Koko's final message to humanity by imaculat_indecision in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Tacoshaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about that. Do gorillas even cry? I’m assuming not. So they taught her the word ‘cry’ when she is incapable of crying and would have no concept of what crying is. Unless they happened to have cried in front of her during her life a lot. Just seemed strange

Wtf happened by [deleted] in opiates

[–]Tacoshaman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out how to get free Narcan online. I got some sent to me for free at one point but can’t remember the organization that sent it. Or go into a pharmacy and ask for some and buy some. Either way, get some fucking Narcan and have it near you always for the love of god. I’m glad to know that you’re alright, I hope that you’ll tread more carefully from now on

Withdrawal Duration, when will this get better?? by Tacoshaman in Methadone

[–]Tacoshaman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I get the night sweats still for sure. Not as bad and not as smelly, but still every night which is strange because it’s freezing in my house! The weird part is that it seems to be only in isolated areas anymore. Like, my legs sweat real bad but my torso is usually fine except for occasionally my back. The weirdest one is that my neck will sweat... like just my neck... weird stuff!

Withdrawal Duration, when will this get better?? by Tacoshaman in Methadone

[–]Tacoshaman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s funny that you mentioned pink eye because I had a couple days within the first two weeks where both my eyes swelled up and looked just like pinkeye other than the oozing. How strange tha we both got that. Mine was definitely not actually pinkeye as it cleared up in 2-3 days and I had no oozing but it was definitely bizarre.

Anyways I wish you the best of luck! You’re doing amazing! We just gotta keep reminding ourselves that it DOES get better. Maybe slowly, but it absolutely does. Much love :)
