In you're opinion, which of these drugs causes the most brain damage?

yea nitrous shouldn't' be lumped in with ''inhalants"

 

why not? it's an inhalant...

 

true, but usually "inhalants" is used to refer to such things as propane, gasoline, starter fluid (benzine/ether) and the like.

Nitrous is an exception. The only known adverse affects from such is a depletion of vitamin b12 and a decrese in the methioine synthesis process.

 

HAH
I've heard much worse things about it
and whether that was propoganda or not (which I doubt in this case) it is still known (just not necessarily known correctly :tongue: )

from what I understand/have seen, that shit makes you drop brain cells worse than when your mom smoked crack with you kicking inside of her

 

DXM caused olneys lesions http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/dxm/dxm_health1.shtml disociatives really fuck with your head.

 

There is no published evidence currently to support the theory that Olney's Lesions can occur in humans.

What have you heard about N2O?

 

I picked alchohol, but I suppose inhalants are just as bad.
As far as brain damage goes-
Heroin will not cause any unless you overdose and lose oxygen to the brain.
LSD, mushrooms, etc.. do not cause any brain damage (technically) although they affect the chemical balances in the brain and this can fuck you up.

 

Dissociatives in general are the worst as far as brain damage goes. PCP being the worst, ketamine being the 'best' and DXM being somewhere in the middle. Nitrous is technically in that category too, but I'm not sure how it ranks in there.

 

first inhalents
then dxm, nitrous (most dissassoc. are suspected of causing physical brain damage, though there is debate if this damage is organic, and if the brain can heal from it)

I don't know that other's like meth, crack, heroine cause physical 'brain damage', but they definitely cause psychological problems

 

#1: Inhalants (Aerosol, Glue, Lighter Fluid, Paint Thinner etc. NOT NITROUS!)
#2: Deliriants (datura, belladonna, benedryll, nutmeg and antihistamines)
#3: Methamphetamine / Crack Cocaine
#4: Heroin

In Peru glue is the drug of choice because it's cheap and it takes away the hunger pains (they are all starving).

 

lol.... UPLINK where did u hear that datura causes brain damage lol ?? even more harmful than crack or heroin LOL.... and these people even give advices....

 

id say X

i got HPPD from X after 5 uses.

i <3 lsd and pot

 

i took a diferent approach. although heroin dosent really kill as many cells in the brain, i think it changes your whole personality more drastically than any other. maybe not outwardly as noticeable, but your motivations and values are changed the most drasticaly for the longest amount of time. sure most of the others will burn a cavern in your brain faster and more noticably,but i voted heroin.

 

Hahah if you think nitrous does so much brain damage, you better never get a cavity.

 

Actually it does... and worse.

I found this warning about atropine online:

 

Datura contains poison. You aren't tripping of off psychoactive compounds you're tripping off poison. Such a horrible plant. Why did people ever start using this recreationally.

I personally think Inhalants are far more dangerous then street drugs. Inhalants are simply suffocating yourself and destroying sensory receptors to get high. The chemistry behind things used as inhalants isn't pretty. Computer Duster can do a hell of a lot of damage, and can kill you because you're too stupid to know when to stop. Nitrous is generally harmless though, as long as you aren't binging. If you use it a lot though, it's highly suggested you take multivitamins or B12 complex because it depletes B12 pretty bad.

I thought Meth was more physically damaging then mentally. Sure the cravings can cause someone to be pretty insane, but that isn't destruction of your brain. Meth binges, however, can produce serious mental damage. Like Amphetamine Psychosis and just really horrible things in general.

Heroin can change someone's personality because of the extreme depletion of Seretonin in the brain, but I don't think thats permanent, although it can take years to heal.

Acid, I think, can cause psychological damage, but whether or not any of that is because of physical brain damage is beyond me.

I voted DXM because high doses have been proven to make tiny scars on the brain. Dissociatives in general are highly dangerous to the brain. I think enough DXM usage can severely and forever damage one's brain. I've noticed my temper is much worse and easier to trigger since I started heavily using DXM. I've cut it down to only using once a month or so.

 

Oh my God, the amount of misinformation in this thread is absurd... I don't have time to post about now, but until I do, people, please don't believe anything on here, because a ton of it is pulled out of someone's ass.

 

I don't think mine is =(

 

meth messes you up bad i heard

 

Aerosol, gasoline, other inhalents in general do a lot more than any of those.

As far as Ecstasy putting holes in your brain...
