🤝 Cultural 🤝 Name some drugs that are either extinct or no longer available or scarce supply

One thing I kind of miss was just how beautiful some of those old prescription capsules were . Beautiful bright colors that made you feel like you were going to be in Wonderland, even if the effects weren't necessarily quite that much fun: reds ( seconal), black beauties, yellow jackets, tuinals. Maybe that was an intentional marketing ploy.

How does 2C-I compare to E or B C or D. Never took it still wondering

I’ve only tried 2cb other than 2ci but 2ci is extremely visual to me. Like more intense visuals than acid. I’ve heard that E is more visual with 2ci being a close second for visuals. It’s also a very stimulating high. Kinda like speed a little but not quite that intense. I find B to be very boring in comparison

propoxyphene = darvocet

Tylenol has better pain reduction effects than darvocet -- that said it will help w/d in a pinch!

It worked for migraines when I got a script in college, last century and It was a decent pain reliever and worked better than Tylenol 3, but they banned it.

It was only schedule 4, and didn't pack a buzz, but it worked for me on migraines and on pain from a minor accident, I caused while drunk.

It wasn't strong but it worked better than Tylenol 3, and even someone I knew well had a script and thought the same.

I guess it didn't work on some people and was considered too addictive or something.

It is not really missed though. I have never heard anyone complain about it being gone.

NSAIDS, don't work on me and I am not allowed to have them, liver issues.

No Tylenol but Oxycodone and Morphine are ok. Not going to argue about that.

Tylenol ( acetaminophen is a killer, or paracetamol as it is called in other countries)

A strong speed in a black capsule.

Interesting that darvon worked for you. I had unlimited access because my dad had a script for many years. They never did much for me but my dad did have migraines along with other chronic pain, so maybe that's why he liked them. But for me Tylenol 3s did way more good, they were strong for me. But not all people metabolize codeine well for genetic reason.
Darvons/darvocets (propoxyphene) were banned because they were shown to cause heart problems

Hash and acid are easy as fuck yo get in Canada. Coke is still easy to get though is often cut. I havent had MDA since like about 2013 i think when i had it in a E pill

Darvon is a shitty example of a drug you can thankfully no longer get

Whats the reason you cant get hash anymore ,when I was younger I never seen weed till I was in my 20s now it's all you get
Personally I love the smell of hash ,I find weed has a sickly smell .

Prolly because hash was a thing mostly due to how weak weed used to be along with the need to have a more compact product so that smugglers could pack more product per trip across the border.

Thanks ,makes sense.
I suppose you could make it yourself at home if you had the knowledge

Hash is a lot better smells nice and the high is more smooth but idk I had grade A Moroccan and was the most good euphoric high ever but the weed gets me higher in a way with more anxiety hash is usually anxiety free for me and smooth , it’s supposed to be stronger than weed but weed seems stronger for me.

I used to use a great prescription allergy medication that banned because of the same reason. A non- drowsy, prescription drug with no abuse potential but it caused heart issues for some. Seldane, had no abuse potential or any drowsiness but banned. I miss that, it was great for me.

Yellow jackets were a stim? I’d love to try black beauties

Also the film Quadrophenia ,there Just mentioned as blues if I remember

If Moroccan peasants can make it; then it is not probably hard to make.

I had someone very close to me also who had migraines and chronic pain. They preferred Darvacet and so did I.

I had both when I was young and found out that Darvacet worked better for me.
The genetic thing is probably the reason that both of us preferred Darvacet. ( unfortunately it had acetaminophen just like fioricet which also works great, but the ones with codiene did seem to work even better).

2ci is so awesome. One of my all time favorites. The visuals are so rich and kinda like 3 dimensional. So cool

Would love some GHB. Got some a year ago and man was that a beautiful few days. If I passed out, I would have beautifully complex dreams, sort of like lucid dreams but a little more out of it due to the drugs. The feeling was just amazing though, I honestly preferred it over MDMA for the smooth comedown and less body load and the way it eases you into sleep as you come down. Plus I really did a lot of reflecting on my life in a pretty rational and forgiving way, MDMA would cause that too but the high is just so intense that it would be a bit overwhelming. GHB was a little bit too strong at times but once again it felt smoother and more relaxing. Miss that stuff, surprised it isn't more common.
