True. But I really love me some dexamp. I just don't find it compulsive. I like how I get at least 8 hours of stimulation from it. Whereas with coke, it's as short a high as weed, with more comedown. But then again, maybe I've only had shit coke... been a few years since I last had any.
Coke is a fun drug for sure but it is IMO way overrated and not really as fun in reality as you think it's going to be. And I have done a reasonably amount of very good coke, which is better for sure, but I think really the same applies. Coke and alcohol or some kind of other softener is really a must for me, and cocaethylene is a fun time despite the negative aftereffects. I've also tried to use cocaine as a sort of nootropic before which was really not sustainable. The crash is was disproportionate to the high and this is true for all cocaine, anyone who says it doesn't apply to good cocaine IMO, has either just not done enough of that cocaine for long enough, or is perhaps medicating themselves in the aftermath with benzos or something else - and benzos do work great for this purpose.
To stop myself trying to use coke as performance enhancer I acquired some racemic amphetamine and yeah it is tons better, I agree, although there are differences. I depends what you're looking for, I would say I guess that amph-stimulation is more functional in somewhat controlled doses, and people won't obviously know you're on it. Cocaine requires redosing too frequently, and there maybe is just something extra, a little more social... but I dunno, not sure how comfortable I am with that latter statement. Maybe it's just bias from many memories of fun times drinking and doing lines every 30-40 minutes. The crash does suck either way.
I wish I could get dexamph at a reasonable price because I do get a lot out of racemic amph for sure but I also get negative sides which I think are enhanced by the NE activity of the less cognitive isomer.
I've read about a method (although sadly a very inefficient one) of separating the dexto/levo isomers with a tartaric acid extrction of something like that which I might try one day if I can do it in my kitchen.
OT: Actually taken 6 etizolam today to chill out as well as 150mg armodafinil to wake myself the fuck up a bit. Smoked 2 tiny joints which was actually damn enjoyable. Smoked 1 menthol cig which was fun too but I must get rid of these before I smoke a whole pack. Oh, also, 10g piracetam in 2 x doses. Oh! Also 1.5g piracetam just recently.
So far my LSD microdose induced several hours of vague chest deep anxiety - or actually, perhaps, maybe I just noticed this sensation more for what it was. Eventually had to take a few benzos and GABAergics to get myself going which is not too unusual right now and maybe undid some of the good effects of the microdose or whatever.
Maybe I do feel a bit more comfortable with my actions in any case. Did give me a craving for weed... maybe indulging that craving earlier would have been a good idea.
It's telling how off-kilter I've become recently that even a microdose of LSD gives me comeup anxiety. Dissociative rebound I think. I'll keep trying though and maybe do less other drugs tomorrow.
(edit, bloody benzo-typos)
