The other day I had a discussion with friends and obviously there’s no right answer here since it’s a very nuanced topic, but some people said it absolutely sucks and others were like nah this shit sucks ass. Which one is it? And do you suck ass? Please let me know in the comments.

Depends on the drug and how high you were. Recognizing that it happens is important.

I'm more of a stoner, so coming down is only sometimes depressive. Usually it's just a bummer.

[–] roboto@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

Sometimes I’m getting high and then I feel like I’m in this natural state of chillax where I couldn't give less fucks about the important project that Randy from sales wants me to deliver on September 17 at 2:30pm. And then I’m thinking why are we living like this, this is way too stressful let’s all take another hit and maybe watch a movie or something instead.

Not if you follow all the harm reduction steps ;) Then you just have a lazy day or don't even notice it.

[–] moistclump@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What are the harm reduction steps?

[–] Zeko9381@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

This site contains pretty much all the info you need: https://rollsafe.org/

Uh I make sure to smoke enough weed and then I just sleep through the phase where everything is boring and depressing compared to hugging strangers in a steamy dark dancefloor and feeling a strange connection with the disco lights.

But I’m also passionate about winter sports and my problem is that I keep taking the lift and I’m going up and then downhill again but then at some point it’s time to go home and then you’re going all the way down from the top of the mountain and you’re just laying there remembering the snow and remembering what kind of shit you said during your skiing trip and you can’t sleep and and you can’t be awake and you can’t think of anything except this one time when in elementary school you forgot your pen and you had to ask the kid next to you and the kid gave you a shitty pen and a mean comment and that’s why you hate people in general and that’s why you can’t rely on anyone but yourself and this world is just plain evil and hostile.

MDMA hangover rates a 4/10 in my experience. Nearly unnoticeable with 5-HTP supplementation and not taking a stupid amount of MDMA, just a bit of a sleepy day after. Hangovers from alcohol can be way more debilitating.

Opiates and especially benzos are significantly worse to come off of. Benzo WDs can kill you and it lasts months after chronic usage. You feel insane, you’re sweating, heart palpitations, and anxiety through the roof. Fuck benzos.

[–] Mrkawfee@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Yeah 5 HTP can take the edge off you're right. It's easy to take too much Mandy though. Alcohol is the absolute worst but taking paracetamol before sleeping and staying hydrated can also mitigate the evil hangover the next day.

Depends on the drugs. Some withdrawal symptoms will absolutely kill you. Some drugs like nicotine have barely any side effects, but affect different people differently which can cause other side effects. It's complicated. One thing for sure, is there is a notable difference between freeing yourself of something, and depriving yourself of something. Most of that happens in your head.

Anecdotally I smoked weed heavily for over a decade and quit cold turkey. I got vivid dreams for a few months, but wasn't too bothered by it, I wasn't "depriving" myself of weed, i was free of it. I did need to take a sleeping pill once every other week to finally catch a good night's rest, but it went back to normal. Some people will have serious problems stopping weed for various reasons. If I had anxiety I would have had to manage that as well some other way, for example.

[–] roboto@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

I didn’t smoke weed for a couple years but now in Germany you can get it prescribed and delivered to you by a pharmacy, best thing ever, have been ordering different strains and throwing them into a vaporizer. Took some time off from work, was basically just blazing and gaming, renaissance of my teenage years, 10/10 would recommend and no come down. Weed is the shit.

Are you supposed to smell that or lick that for getting high. Wondering what’s the come down like? Getting tired of floating in the endless void

[–] Atin@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (2 children)

The only drug I had problems with the next day was alcohol.

[–] roboto@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

Alcohol making me come down for days but at least you can tell everyone you’re hungover, it’s super funny and relatable!

[–] mushroomstormtrooper@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Opioids can be pretty rough for me the next day, too and I've never even taken the real heavy ones. But otherwise I agree, alcohol is the worst.

Hahahaha it really didn't seem odd to me that the eyes are in the nose when I first looked at this

[–] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] SilentObserver@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

It’s on gify. I found it by Googling (or rather Braving in my case) “licking lips gif” and then clicking the Images option. That’s where I saw it.

[–] sloppysol@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Depends on the drug…? Whatchu tryna quit homie

[–] roboto@feddit.org 2 points 3 months ago

Quitting is for losers!

[–] deuleb_biezelbob@programming.dev 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sucks dick, and then Whoooosh more drugs

[–] roboto@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Who’s dick can I suck for some good old sleep? Asking for myself

[–] deuleb_biezelbob@programming.dev 1 points 3 months ago

Look for someone who has ambien

*don't

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I take adhd meds daily, when I come down I sleep lol

[–] roboto@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ah man ADHD meds are the best, don’t split up the pills and snort them through the nose though as that will have euphoria similar to cocaine and then you’ll have a 10x worse come down than from cocaine but before it was really fun so please don’t do that.

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm using slow release pills so that's not really a concern, don't want to abuse the meds 🤷

[–] roboto@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ahh the good old slow release pills. Yeah if you want to avoid abusing them be careful that you don’t accidentally open the capsule and crush the little balls inside and accidentally snort them through the nose. Because if you crush the balls the coating gets destroyed and it hits you immediately and you don’t want that.
