Do you feel that your DOC makes you a better person?

rules said:
The inspiration for this came from another thread when a BL'er said that thinking this was just another sick way of thinking that drugs put into your head. Do you agree with this or not? I find that when I am high on heroin it truly does make me a better person. My mom is divorced and always likes to and tries to spend time with me. When I'm high I love being around her, talking to her, hearing about her day, etc...but when I am sober or sick, I am usually a condescending asshole that doesn't care about absolutely anything but himself...So, does anyone agree or disagree? I want to hear some opinions...and also state your DOC, obviously.

man I totally relate with this post.

I mean, things have kind of changed nowadays. My DOC's used to be IV Cocaine & Heroin, and now I much prefer D-amp. Obviously when I was shooting coke/speedballing I was pretty worthless and my self respect was at an all time low. Nowadays though I feel that I function much better when I'm on Adderall/Dexadrine/Vyvanse. I'm ambitious, motivated, social and enthusiastic. I think the fact that I can just get things done makes me feel so much better about myself.
 
Yes, benzos, opioids, and amphetamines (all of which I take daily), have all helped me in a number of ways I feel. Have there been bumps of trouble on the road? Yes, but now I am in a place where I can use to keep me feeling well, without chance of acute consequence. Benzos have literally taught me that I do not have to have social anxiety/phobia and be an introvert, they really made me an extrovert, actually, while still leaving me with the ability of enjoying the pleasure of being alone. Opioids helped me at first, when I used them only here and there, because they gave me something to live for - that may sound pathetic, but I really don't feel it is. My mother was an opiate addict, and she is dead 5 years now, and I feel opioids allowed me into her world somewhat, as did all drugs, on the whole. Today, opioids (tramadol) helps me daily, giving me a better and somewhat steadier mood, more energy, probably more creativity, and anxiety relief, of course. This all allows me to function better day in and day out. Amphetamines help me by allowing me to actually be awake and aware of the brilliance of the day, allowing me to expend more energy and giving energy, providing a "rested" feeling, lifting my mood a good deal, decreasing my appetite (normal weight, but strive to be thinner - no veritable ED, though), allowing me to feel okay about doing something once I have started and finishing it, giving me a push to feel good even if I am superficially upset, and letting me FEEL more. I am doing more, on account of them and the benzos and tramadol, too. I am not always productive, but I can write like I never could before. I swear my writing for recreation (fictional and non-) almost shock me in how good they seem to be to me, and make me feel so talented when others laud me for my writings. It is like it came out from nowhere - this passion to write. But, most of all, like I said, drugs give me something to live for. Their mere existence allows me hope to feel any way I want should I be able to use them, and they can produce fantastic feelings beyond what other pleasures of the flesh could ever produce IME. But, yes, my past has made me a better person, and drugs have been a huge part of my life for well over two years now.

The subjective and personal discovery of two drug classes - opiates and amphetamines - has really just been wonderful in itself. They are so very close to magic.

You sir, are talking to a pain patient...I don't think opioids make things easier...I KNOW they make things easier lmfao...
 
My drug of choice is heroin.... it does not make me a better person. It makes me feel better except of course on the comedown but in the end it makes me less productive. I stay in my room unless to go outside and smoke... or if I'm doing dope at a friends I just end up nodded out on the couch. We also walk around sometimes but we get so fucked up that it's not always a good idea but it's fun... I just think everyone knows I do dope though if I walk around, probably just me being paranoid or maybe my hypothesis is actually right. When I'm high on heroin I obviously have that doped up look on my face... So it makes me not want to do shit but enjoy my high. It then also ends up being the only thing I think about which is the kind of shit that I don't like. I don't want heroin to be my life because then I would have no life at all.
 
MDMA, MDA, LSD, 25i-nbome, 4-Aco-DMT, 6-APB, Ketamine, etc. make me into a better person. My DOC (heroin) only makes me superficially feel like a better person for a few hours but mostly it's just their to make me feel euphoric and numb. How can a drug that eventually ruins your life make you into a better person? :?
 
weed doesn't make me a better person, but it does help me become a better person by fixing a lot of my problems like insomnia, anxiety, and depression. i think LSD and most other psychedeilcs make me a better person
 
I can't really comment on if I'm better or worse than I used to be. It's all relative really. I like who I have become, if that counts?

What I can say for sure is that I've grown and learned a huge amount thanks to psychedelics. One year of doing LSD has had more therapeutic value than all the years of talking therapy I did. Spiritually speaking, it has been worth more than all the years of meditation and philosophy reading combined.

The fact that certain psychedelics have not been legalized and incorporated in modern psychotherapy continues to astound me.
 
i feel like my other, non weed/psychedelic DOC(S) make me a worse person, although had i not taken them in the first place, i would not be the person i am now, and i dont know if thats a good or bad thing, but i acknowledge drugs to be a major factor in my development as a person.

and i try to become a better person via San pedro cactus and ayahuasca and mushrooms, among others. it really shocks me how different psychedelics are than uppers and downers. i dont even think they should be in the same category.
 
They aren't in the same category, although some could be considered part of multiple categories. There are stimulants, depressants, psychedelics, dissasociatives, etc.
 
When I was pretty naive/oblivious to all the things I know about drugs these days, I had a simple breakdown of how I classified drugs.

First category I called soft drugs or "baby" drugs:
This included your common high school drugs of abuse like marijuana and DXM.

Second category I called intermediate drugs or Hard Drugs with low dependence/addiction potential:
These included MDMA/MDA/MDxx, LSD, Psilocin, and other Psychedelics.

Last category I called hard drugs or Hard Drugs of Addiction:
This category included amphetamines, heroin, Rx opioids, benzos, cocaine, things like that.

I was able to differentiate between stimulants, depressants, psychedelics, empathogens, etc., but didn't look at them as completely different groups like I should have, but kept them in broader categories. I just broke them down like this to explain to stupid people that Group I you didn't need to exercise much care with, Group II you needed to be careful not to take to much, but forming a dependence isn't very likely with these, and Group III you needed to be uber careful with lol.
 
Alcohol is my DOC and i guess now that i think about it its a tricky answer. Personally i think when im drinking im a better person. Im more social and therefore will more likely talk to someone about what is good with them whereas when im sober im like idgaf how yer day was.

Alcohol help bring out my personality alot more so yeh i guess that makes me a better person.
 
I have two DOCs.

My first and foremost DOC, smoked DMT, definitely improves my being. It grounds me and reminds me of what true wonder is.

My interim DOC, opiates, do not. They offer sweet promises written in smoke and offer naught but a brief escape from worry. No solutions to be found.
 
Id say my DOC, amphetamine, doesn't really change who I am. Plus I usually tweak alone, my personal preference. So even if I do act differently, it doesn't effect others.
I guess I'm more confident but that's speed for ya.
 
the title of this thread is do you feel that your DOC makes you a better person?

The word "better" is nebulous. It lacks definition.
