i don’t understand the misconception of how opioids are debilitating or somehow cognitively compromising. weed and alcohol are drugs that scramble your cognitive function. benzos cause retrograde amnesia (you don’t remember things you read or did). but the public has it so backward about opioids. it’s the lack of opioids that cause ppl dysfunction not the intake of them
the problem with opioids are all connected to their inaccessibility, all of them. if you made opioids accessible every single problem opioid users bring onto society from crime to loss of productivity would immediately disappear. this is after all the entire concept behind methadone; making an extremely powerful opioid easily accessible to users. and it works for them. i
you did heroin to get through school or work? imo you cheated, it’s basically a PED for intellectual or physical labor.
is the implication that heroin was supposed to make it harder to study? that’s bullshit, it has an effect like adderall basically - except even better imo because it’s smoother and you can also maintain good sleep schedules on it.
even RFK commented on how when he was in law school he had bad adhd and couldn’t study and i quote “i couldn’t read, and then when i did heroin i could read”
shit will have you in a chair focused for 12 hours not even lifting your attending once from the text.
this misconception of ppl falling asleep being unconscious and unable to respond on heron is when people are way overshooting dosages
