But the endogenous pain relievers and molecules binding to mu, kappa, etc. and those that bind to gaba are having detrimental effects on my day to day life let alone the pain I go through. When I take my pain medicine, and there is no issue with tolerance believe me, the pupils don't even constrict. I have to find one helluva neurologist I suppose. I mentioned gaba receptors btw due to neurontin, lyrica, and my Klonopin not working. One hits up subtype gaba-a, the other gaba-c. Baclofen targets gaba-b.
I'm surprised I haven't had any viable theories so far. I suppose this forum isn't used as widely as it once was because this topic would have surely raised quite the interest, debate, and want to help. Dig deep other bluelighters in term of theories because not even a single person has asked if there has been any previous head trauma. I'm an old member and much wiser than before as I won't let any petty chems cause dependency unless they are for certain issues such as use of Klonopin and even that medicine I believe I perhaps now think I only need sparingly because going to the ER due to a meltdown I could have treated myself isn't preferable. It is pricey to visit those places.
As I was saying it is easy to avoid dependency is easy. Consider the half life (elimination rate) and medicate for several days a take a break for the rest of the week. addiction is usually the desperation to avoid withdrawals and lack of knowledge of correct tapering protocols and can be avoid. There are cases just like the town drunks where they have underlying issues and are trying to drown their sorrow. Instead of realizing the old adage, "Knowledge is power," for the longest and still employed method is you are a bad person.
There are murderers getting out of prison sooner than someone there for drugs. Send a nonviolent offender and have them come out a violent person with way more baggage than they did before hand. It's the reefer madness and treating people like shit for toking all over again except weed is a drug that I've never experienced from before though many have claimed it to be so. It's fat soluble so perhaps it naturally slowly weans you off. I don't know, but it's a powerful medication more so than any I can think of in the various disorders and ailments it can treat. Nowadays the war on drugs is merely another excuse to house criminals in these prisons they keep building and we are already the number one country in the world in terms of percentage of our population to have locked up. I believe life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness got hijacked as soon as the anti-federalists lost and Jeffersonians weren't given a try. Mainly, the war on drugs is our second prohibition. Alcohol actually is a dirty drug. It hit's up many receptors many of which being overloaded leave you regretting you drank the next day. Some people get a benedryl hangover where they are extra tired in the morning and same goes for benzos though on a stronger rate. Opiates never gave me a hangover, but due to my lack of knowledge I gained a dependency. Instead of educating they criminalize and turn drugs, whether other street or not and it doesn't matter because their alternative can usually be found on the pharmacy shelf. The DEA get in the way of Doctors being Doctors and they turn what can be done without any need for harm to anyone into the boogieman. Whose the boogieman if criminalizing a substance and causing blood in the streets and then locking up people for use which was a nonviolent act and removing what we brag to have the most of and less taken inalienable right which is ding ding ding FREEDOM. There's an opiate epidemic and they say naughty children and punish, lock up, fine, and never educate for the most part. Harm reduction isn't just a needle exchange it's also saying hey IF you do this do it this way so you won't have to deal with the agony a withdrawal can bring on. Each drug has different half-lives so days of viable use are different. Brains are being fried also because of shit south of the border speed that is flung across the nation like hot cakes and people overdose from heroin for example because like that and other drugs they don't know the strength and it changes almost each time. Too many hydrocodone prescriptions and people abusing those and our federally funded through tax money DEA now have it is a schedule 2 drug meaning a doctor is that much more unwilling to prescribe it. Well many then will turn to the street in cases I assure you for pain relief and some of them for not being helped by a doctor because of a past of drug abuse, others for recreation, and more to avoid withdrawals because those suboxone clinics are expensive and if I'm not mistaken still cash only. Then more people die and are incarcerated because not enough haven't gone DUHHH! It's the second prohibition and people are getting their brain addled and freedom taken. Al Capone made a killing off of bootleg and lot of that bathtub gin caused people to die or go blind for example. Sound familiar except now it's the cartels and so on and they don't play so nice. Worried about drugs? I'm worried about them because it is a side effect of not having it all regulated. You may grow plants that can easily poison a person, but in many places can't even grow some marijuana. What if a toddler goes up to the plant because some of these poisonous plants are pretty and used in gardens and eats on it? Anyway, it's simple: if for recreational use you wish to use substances they will be available upon purchase at a reasonable price and made in professional labs to where dosing is safe and dosages are assured. However, to do so you must past classes at certain colleges. Length and detail to what all you must learn and practice depends on the potential danger of repeated use of the substance. To protect it's potential as a viable interest there must be lessons that have there and at home students practice. Afterall, a surgeon learns a lot about anatomy, but doesn't go straight to the operating room. He must practice. Less incarcerated non-violent "offenders" and money to reduce other taxes as the colleges and labs and distributors pay a portion to the government, but only for programs that americans vote to have the proceeds go to.
I have way more on it, but it's a better attempt that what our government has cooked up which has been far more detrimental than any cooked up meth has ever been. Lot's of lost freedoms, rights, and ability to gain jobs because of the creation of felons like it's going out of style. Live and let live and if people can drink alcohol...
Anyway, I don't care about partying heck I don't have any friends, but I'd love most importantly feedback on what is happening with my brain. Any feedback is appreciated! Opinions, especially when grouped in a forum, can gather a give rise to an ideal as majestic as what results from biodiversity such as a forest. They are so peaceful to walk through. Trees, plants, insects, and animals coexisting and then there's us human beings who based on recorded history have a lot to worry about if artificially intelligent robots take over. We'd have to burn our history itself and look for any book to burn. Our survival would be dependent upon a lie. You have biodiversity of so many different species and then us, who are atop of our food chain, that do the things we do to each other. With medicine and science taking away freedoms might not be necessary. You think Jefferey Dohmer had a normal brain? The brains complicated, but love isn't. Effort is taken, but if it weren't for the pursuit of that dollar bill we'd never have had notable scientists contribute what they have. Tesla could have done more, but what's his face pulled his funding once he thought Tesla wasn't of use and it didn't help Edison was smear campaigning him harder than opposing politicians come election time.
Cheers and thank you if you read it all!
