I need a drug, I was looking for a drug, something that well get me to talk more, because, for some reason I never know what to say (I'm not shy or any thing it's just like I start talking to people, but I end up not knowing to say) , so my life really sucks because I don't know any one...but the few times I had a few drinks before school, it was great, I talked a lot, I was in such a good mood, and I had so much fun, I didn't drink to much where you could tell I was drunk, just enough so I could feel it, and I had a water bottle with more, so it lasted all day...I try to do it as much as I can, but I'm under age, so I can't get it easily, and I don't know to many people so I can get it from some one else, and it's not like I can ask my dealer if he can get some, like with drugs...so I have 2 questions. 1. do you know of a drug that will kind of do the same thing, like make my talk more and make me more happy? 2. or how do you think I can get alcohol some in my situation?
if you think you need drugs to help you out, then what you really need is therapy....drugs arent a helper....unless its medicinal marijuana
I know, but I need to do something, my life really sucks, and I just don't know what to do any more, it feels like if I have to spend any more weekends just doing nothing, alone most of the time, I'm going to go crazy...I need to find people to just hang out with...
There´s one drug that really gives you all the effects you want: MDMA. But I have to agree: drugs aren´t the right way to solve your problems. I also agree: you should try a therapy. And maybe some medication could help you (I´d suggest "cipralex").
You shouldn't keep doing this with alcohol. You are setting a very dangerous precedent. I also disagree with The Flow, who says he's a doctor. MDMA is not a good solution. It would make you talk more, but taking MDMA everyday is a piss poor solution. Not only would you not learn anything in school, you would fry your brain in a matter of months, if that long. You should see a doctor. I think bupropion (Wellbutrin) would help you. It is an antidepressant, but not a typical one. It doesn't have any sexual side effects and it doesn't cause weight gain or fatigue. It should give you a little more self confidence, take the edge off a little, and it may give you a little kick of energy. If it doesn't work alone, I would suggest using an SSRI medication along with it, probably escitalopram (Lexapro).
if your life sucks, then drugs aint the answer...wtf do you care what people think about you..talk to whoever you like and who gives a shit what they think...and once your out of high school you'll probably never see em again...so i wouldnt be so strung out on what people think about you...thats what is making your life sucky
after looking at your posts this seems to be a repetitive theme...sooo I still support my first post but I agree with everyone else maybe your heads out a whack and you should see a doctor
I didn´t say that MDMA is a good solution (read my complete post), I only said that it has all the desired effects. But you should also know, that there´s been some (quite succesful) experiments in the early 80s to use MDMA in psychotherapy.
I did read the whole post. You said nothing to the effect of NOT recommending MDMA. . . If these studies proved so successful, how come it isn't routinely used in psycotherapy?
Normally I´m sure that it should be clear that there are lots of reasons not to use drugs. Most people are quite responsible on this matter - can it be that you aren´t PhotoGra1? This guy posted that he wants a drug, no matter what. He even considered paying a dealer to get him alcohol. If I can choose to let him go a way that will 100% lead him to addiction and a giant social drop (the ethanol way) or to let him choose another drug which is (scientifically proven) not more dangerous than alcohol but without the risk of physical addiction - which way should I in your opinion choose? I´ve been working with addictives long enough not to hesitate to choose the latter, in this case MDMA. But I must repeat: I don´t think it´s the right way for this guy, I just answered the question from the scientific point of view! In the middle of the 80s lots of people started to abuse MDMA (as it was still legal), this made the US-government schedule it as a class I drug. For that reason all research had to be stopped; and it took until a few years ago when it became started again. First results have already been promising. Better read medical magazines more regularly PhotoGra1, you´ll be surprised how much research has been going on about RCs during the last years. And besides: without the research done on MDMA and its relatives, it would have been impossible to develope modern SSRIs in the 80s (like Prozac or Lexapro), so you could really say, that some kind of MDMA relative is indeed already used in psychotherapy (already more than 50% of the psychopharmaceutical prescriptions)!
Besides: I´m curious - are you also from the medical corner (professionally) or how comes, that you know so much about psychopharmacology that you think you can do these recommendations online?
Dude, you sound exactly like me a little while ago. I had problems talking with people and I often felt I didn't have very close friends and I kept getting these urges to be more social. I, too, turned to alcohol. It helped me temporarily but in the end it got to the point where I never wanted to touch the stuff again. I ended up going to see a psychiatrist and he gave me a prescription for anti-depressants. I decided it was worth a try so I took some and within days my life changed for the better. I became more social, and to this day I just feel way happier. The meds I'm taking are called Lexapro and there are very minimal side effects. Actually, I only felt the side effects on the first night I took it, ever since then it's been smooth sailing.
I have worked with pharmaceuticals and in pharmacy practice for 10 years. Soon, I will be a doctor of pharmacy. I read medical journals and texts constantly. I, too, have worked and studied drugs of abuse significantly. I agree that some of the risks of MDMA have been overstated, which is unfortunate, but I do not agree that MDMA is safer than ethanol, either occasionally or habitually. I would and did recommend that this individual consult with a doctor. I do not think an online forum is an appropriate place to diagnose or treat individuals. I was only suggesting some treatment options that I think would be suitable, from my limited knowledge of this individual. I am not trained in diagnosing. I am very qualified in pharmacotherapy, though.
i find ive barely got anything to talk about when im with people i dont know, but i can talk bout nothing for ages with someone i do things with and so can relate to. especially if im pissed and stoned at teh same time and maybe had some speed. i could talk to anyone forever!
