Body High WITHOUT the Mind High

[sola]

When I use, I really wish to avoid drugs that produce a mind high. I'm prone to anxiety, and can have really bad experiences on certain drugs because of this. In the effort of harm reduction -- I know I can do some really stupid things on certain drugs -- I'm looking to switch from drugs that affect me negatively, to drugs that affect me less negatively.

So, in light of that, I was wondering if anyone would have any tips on a non-opiate drug or class of drugs that provide "body" highs, without much change to your mental state. I know it's not quite as simple as I'm making things, and I know you can't truly dichotomize mental highs from body highs, but I know that certain drugs have more "mental" aspects, as many people can testify to. For example, weed may be a body high as well, but it puts you in a different state of consciousness (at least it does that to me). For me, something like kratom makes me high (kinda), but doesn't put me in a different state of consciousness.

I hope I haven't lost anyone, and I hope you guys and gals know what I mean when I say a different state of consciousness. It seems like some drugs make you high whilst keeping you mentally clear and feeling like "you," but some drugs warp with your perceptions. I know this is all highly subjective, but I'm wondering if anyone knows of any drugs that don't mess with your perceptions, but still give you an amazing feeling. Probably something in line with opiates, but I'm looking for something besides opiates.

I know asking for drug recommendations isn't usually seen as harm reduction, but when someone is seeking out highs and he or she knows that more "mental" highs make him or her freak out and possibly hurt him or herself, it can definitely reduce harm to give that person a suggestion or two.

PS I have used the search engine already, but can't quite find what I'm looking for. I don't want just a body high, rather I want a body high that has an absence of a mental high, or as close to as possible.

drugs alter your consciousness.

im really not sure what youre looking for as i was going to suggest low dose opioids or benzos.

psychs and stims are certainly outta the question. alongside weed, booze, even tobacco.

maybe herbal blends, multi-vitamins and nootropics is what youre after!

do you get anxiety on opiates ? if you do i don't know if any drug will be right for you.
but opiates, benzos, ghb and the sort relieve anxiety but still change your consciousness and can make your anxiety worse after they have worn off. and are very easy to get hooked too.

benzos and opiates i would suggest for a "body high" but every drug will alter your mind as well in some way. I get a good body buzz from amphetimines too, but since you have anxiety I would'nt suggest that

OP said any drug but opiates

weed is definitely a mental high as well and is the only thing I can think of really that also allievates pain

honestly the only thing I can think of that may fit their criteria is MDMA

You enter a slightly different mental state but nothing tou shouldnt be able to walk in public on and it does feel pretty damn good

Sounds like you weren't meant to use drugs lol.

You should really give GHB a try. I'm getting a bottle of 330ml next week and can't fucking wait.

No "what should I take" threads are to be tolerated. You know yourself, and only you are responsible for doing the necessary research into the subjective effects of various substances to make determinations for yourself.
