What drugs just didn’t click for you?

The pharmacological action of cocaine is very similar to ritalin, both NDRIs except cocaine has additional serotonergic activity

I always though coke was overrated and can be replicated or surpassed with other drugs
Yeah I’m aware of how it works. I think amphetamines far surpass cocaine. I never got the hype of MDMA either, it literally makes me want to go to sleep. Opiates and downers are my demon though along with ketamine
 
Reading through this thread furthers my fascination with how different drugs can be for other people. Some here say they hate ketamine, others love it, some only get nauseous from opiates others view it as their ambrosia, one person loves a certain psychedelic while the next says it is the worst experience of their life

Is there truly any drug where a similar level of enjoyment can be replicated in a significant majority of individuals?

I used to think it was MDMA but have seen to many anecdotes of people saying they cant tolerate it
What could it be? Some sort of GABAergic? Alcohol? An anesthetic? It seems hard to have a dysphoric experience on these although they dont provide much euphoria. Even then there are a lot of people that dislike alcohol and benzos

I honestly think the answer is no. I genuinely don’t think there is any one drug that everyone will like. People will always be divided between the downer lovers and the stim lovers at the core of it also I think.

Some can me more directly related to things like euphoria and happiness because of how directly and strongly they affect specific parts of the brain.

But aside from that, everything else seems to be seen as pleasurable merely because it is taking care of a perceived issue.

And just to play devil's advocate on myself, we could argue even things like dopamine and serotonin are not made to be universally enjoyed.. it's a hard argument but we can probably agree that too much of both is bad, right?

Which means, really, the human body is the way it is because we've been evolving for a very long time.

The issue isn't us.. it's the world we were born into.

Agreed, there will be drugs that ”on paper” might be inclined to give more enjoyment than others but no definitive answer

Interesting that you mention that people might not enjoy either one neurotransmitter or the other being heavily stimulated. I personally have never found enjoyment from serotonergic drugs. Never liked MDMA or any of the others. On the other hand dopamine and norepenepherine heaver drugs I enjoy more, as much as I could enjoy a stimulant because downers and dissos are more my vibe
 
Demerol-absolute shit on it's own.combo with morphei-only spoil morphii....combo with meth-a real dangerous combo,but was surprisingly good.,..xanax-didn't feel much even from two-three pills each from a miligram...may be 'cause I was on meth comedown at that point.... principally all benzos are same to me...different to some extent,but same in general....
Trihexyphenidil-no man,thanks

Alcohol (as a drug). I do drink because it tastes good, but not very much. It feels a little good for a few minutes , but any more than two drinks makes me feel like trash most of the time. And the second I have even the tiniest bit of tolerance, even one drink makes me feel gross, which I don’t understand. It’s worse being on kratom, but even during periods when I haven’t been taking kratom (just smoking weed) it wasn’t much different, maybe three instead of two. It was better when I was much younger though.
 
Biggest one, alchohol. Have only had one semi-good time drunk, but my body physically cannot handle it whatsoever, as in a single beer will have me throw up the entire day afterwards. I think it’s the multiple meds I take for my chronic illness that are causing this reaction, but idk.

That and my eating disorder hating the idea of a drug with calories. Even now that I wouldn’t consider myself anorexic anymore, I just hate consuming disgusting tasting drinks when I can do benzos and become just as stupid and reckless.

Another big one is cocaine. Impulsively bought a gram once because I was bored, but no matter how many damn lines I snorted, I never got the ‘confident, need to talk’ feeling and the rush was very disappointing compared to synthetic cathinones that are 5x cheaper. Also hated the sensory experience of the numbness it causes. Ended up giving what was left of the gram to a friend, so hey, at least something positive came out of whatever that situation was.

Might be my adhd, because I do get that confidence and motivation boost from speed, as well as wanting to talk (such as this long ass ramble right now lol😭)

Feel lucky to dislike the expensive drugs haha

Fully agree, 4x more expensive than speed for 1/8th of the duration per line, less euphoria and more cardiotoxicity? Yeah no thanks. Even Methylphenidate or other RC NDRIs are more consistently euphoric than cocaine for me, so even if it was cheap id prefer pyrovalerones
 
So I was banging heroin a little over a week ago, 10 different shots.... it just didn't hit with me? I was a former IV coke addict so maybe that extreme just ruined H for me. I don't know. Maybe I'm lucky even. But as an opioid enjoyer, I was expecting better.
 
Pregabalin - doesn't do shit for me even at doses exceeding 3000mg. Its only effect is that I can't walk straight, feel completely sober otherwise.

a-PVP - no euphoria, but instant paranoia and unpleasant hallucinations which feel like 72h+ of sleep deprivation
You must've not been watching enough porn on the a-pvp 😂
 
Cannabis: impairs memory, makes me lazy.
Psychedelics (LSD, psilocybin, DMT): not what I was expecting, lost desire to use them again.
Opiods (heroin, kratom): the rush is great, but the nausea is horrible.
Methamphetamine: disrupts sleep too much at the doses when it's euphoric.
MDMA: impairs memory in a more lasting manner compared to cannabis.
Xanax: didn't feel much, boring.
Ketamine: high doses are similar reasoning as psychedlics, hard to explain, just not what I want/need.
What is your DOC then if you don’t mind me asking then?

Could have been garbage or you used too much water, because heroin is the most enjoyable thing in the entire world if you’ve got the right stuff. Sorry you had that experience.
 
Marijuana is wonky for me. I like THC but I don't think it likes me. Having generalized anxiety disorder doesn't help. It feels like it could be a friend but there's also inherent danger.
 
Pot makes me horny and paranoid at the same damn time lol

I feel like I need to hurry and have sex with someone because I’m fixing to get arrested😂

Not sure if I really like that yet or not
