I am thinking to order Dopamine HCL powder, can you snort it to get high ?
Right, but I believe as a noun, 'dope', was originally synonymous with drug users.^^It more likely came from the version of "dope" meaning idiot.
But please don't go snorting shit without reading up on it first. There's probably a very good reason that dimethocaine has been around since the 1930's but hasn't been specifically made illegal by very many countries.
Dimethocaine is believed to have all the same dangers as cocaine, tread lightly and start your doses low.
So did the term "dope" as slang for basically all psychoactive substances come from 'dopamine'?

I believe it did, yes.
Similar to endorphins is short for endogenous morphine.
The word "dope" was applied to opium as early as 1889, whereas the name "dopamine" was not coined until 1952. The similarity is a coincidence.I was reading and it looks like dope started as a word for soup or sauce, it was adapted for use against opium smokers because of the puddle of melted opium that forms when smoking it. Apparently it was used as a synonym for moron around the same time.
I didn't know the word endorphin came from endogenous morphine, that's pretty cool.
