Overrated and underrated drugs

Overrated: Cocaine/Crack
Underrated: Focalin/Adderall

I'm a fan of drugs you actually still feel after 30 mins...
 
I think certain drugs have far more power to change us than we realize......

LSD changed my entire perspective of my life for the better and was one of the most purely beautiful experiences of my life....

MDMA, you will bond with people on levels you never imagined possible.

2c-b.... People never want to try it, its not something everyone has heard about.... And generally people fear what they do not fully understand, which is a shame because 2c-b is a wonderful compound....
 
Over-Rated- Poppy tea, shrooms, ritalin, and dxm, and methadone.
Under-Rated- Cocaine(If it is actually cocaine), tramadol, codeine, subutex/suboxone, cannabis.
 
overated: coke!!! used to like it coz it was one of the first drugs i tried, but its not worth the cash 4 a 20 min 'rush'. id now rather(if thats the buzz im after?)spend fuck all on some good wizz, and talk the same amount of shit, if not more.....4LONGER!
benzos: they're handy for comedowns dont get me wrong, so in that respect i would consider them to be somewhat under rated. they're also fun to drop a few xanies or sumtin wen ur drinkin n smokin sum night, but for pure rec value alone.... get a real drug.

under rated: opiates, lsd, ketamine, too much taboo around opiates where i live, mainly due too the heroin scrurge on dublin in the 90's, i mean, this shit was baaad!! theyre seen as dirty, also a lot of people i know are afraid to try them coz of the whole "friend of a friend' shit! what a crock! people are fuckd in the already and make it emerge, or speed up the process through drug abuse(IMO) Some of the most wonderfull, beutiful experiences have been with these drugs!! imagine bein afraid to try ketamine!?? I mean, its thought as badly of as heroin here. an out of body experience is fuckin amazin! nothing to be afraid of. no wonder there's such a crime problem over here, people would rather go binge drinkin and take a load of coke, end up running round at 3am with no top on, covered in blood and get arrested! GREAT! Fuckin idiots......

Overrated:

Oxycodone - this one takes the cake for overrated
Alprazolam (Xanax) - this is the close runner-up
Cocaine
Alcohol


Underrated:

Demerol
Triazolam (Halcion)
 
Easy...

Overrated: Alcohol, benzos, tobacco.

Underrated: Methamphetamine
 
Overrated: Alcohol, coke, tobacco, oxycodone, vicodin, codeine, benzos
Underrated: Fresh Kava, cannabis

EDIT: For those of you that haven't tried fresh kava trust me its amazing. Most people don't make theirs strong enough. 1 cup of root to 2 cups of water and a tbsp of oil is a good ratio. I've seen people recommend 1\4 cup to 2 cups of water. Now wonder kava is the most underrated drug. If you don't get a great buzz then you probably got ripped off. Kava > Xanax any day.

Idk why everyone's hating on coke. It's a ton of fun, especially with a couple drinks (combine to make cocoethylene). Maybe it's cut up to shit in your area, but it can be great if the purity is good.

Overrated: meth. Feel horrible the next day. Also I don't like being paranoid.
Weed, but only because I now get anxiety attacks from it.

Underrated: piracetam. Not really a drug, but feels good.
 
overrated: weed - i don't feel satisfied unless i do another drug on top of it
hydrocodone and oxycodone: one dose (30-50mg of either) will get me moderately high for 2-3 hours and costs a lot. the highs good, i'm saying this is overrated because people are willing to pay too much for it.

underrated: dxm - one of my favorite drugs, people hate on it. "you're drinking cough syrup to get high?/that shit'll kill ya/8th grade" etc.
alcohol (only on message boards) - alcohol gets no love on drug forums, it fucking rocks.

rated right (in society): alcohol - PARTY!! WOO!! exactly.
 
I glanced over some of the pages and saw a lot of people listing benzos as over rated. The only benzo I have tried was Xanax, and I am pretty sure every time it was taken along with hydrocodone (I'm a non-regular opiate user) for synergistic purposes. In Burroughs' Junkie, they call Valium "goofballs." Sure Valium and Xanax are different drugs, but I like the occasional "goofball" vibe.

On a recent experience with 50mg hydro and ~1mg alprazolam, I was having these ridiculous nonlinear conversations with a friend where I would think of something that seemed so clever at the time, mention it to him, then forget about it in a minute. I remember at one point saying "what day is it today...? Wait... what year are we on?" and we had to think about that one for a while. The reason I remember that is because I was writing a lot of this stuff down.

Underrated: propylhexedrine / Benzedrex. Thinking of Junkie again: Benzedrine / Bennies, haha
But I'm not into stims anyway. I try to avoid them since I'm already thin, full of energy and never sleep, that stuff is kinda damaging to me.

I believe alcohol is underrated and overrated in different aspects. Alcohol is a drug, and I consume it and treat it like one. I keep track of how much I take, how often I take it, keep hydrated, etc. and I often get desirable effects, have a hell of a time, and rarely have a hangover. I used to puke from drinking 50% of times I took it, but after educating myself more, I haven't gotten sick in over a year. I guess research and harm reduction goes for just about any drug.

Just a general thought on overrated / underrated drugs: maybe it has a lot to do with how often and how long a person has been doing it for. I used to get an awesome rush from smoking cigarettes but after daily smoking and addiction took over it was useless, so I quit (mostly for health reasons and cost, actually. But why smoke cigs just to "get right"?). Cannabis used to be a magical experience every time, but after becoming accustomed to its effects, the "magic" went away. Even if I took breaks to lower my tolerance, I knew what to expect every time. Perhaps I just enjoy the novelty aspect of drug use!

EDIT: Revisited the book and turns out "goof balls" are barbiturates, particularly phenobarbital.

In my experience

Overrated Drugs:
Alcohol
Nicotine
Benzos
Cocaine
Sedative/Downer Drug Combinations

Underrated Drugs:
DXM
Kratom
Barbiturates
Morning Glories
Low-dose Psychedelic (including cannabis and dissociatives) Combinations
Ginko
 
I'm not sure anyone has mentioned it but, Pregabalin (Lyrica) is an amazing chill with few side effects. Seriously underrated.
 
Over rated - speed and DXM because DXM I just don't really enjoy and the speed I get is usually so shit that I don't feel much at all.

Under rated - LSD and Weed. LSD speaks for itself for anybody who has tried it and weed just seems to be passed off as the common, standard drug but if you think about it it is so amazing,.
 
Overrated:
Cocaine, Alcohol, Diphenhydramine

Underrated:
Marijuana, Alprazolam, The 2C family, Kava

I haven't tried DMT, but I will tentatively list it as underrated.

I suppose I would say weed is underrated in its potential for personal discovery. Smoking pot heleped me to realise how un-important money is, and what I really wanted from life.
Click to expand...

totally agree, weed can make you think about hell deep shit, in society and about yourself and who you are. It made me find myself and gain inner peace, was awesome :) I'm so happy i realised.
