Wow, ketamine is a hell of a drug.
usually ketamine would have an opposite effect, other things like alcohol and stimulants will amplify those things. much like musk, he probably uses alcohol alot too.
IDK, ketamine is kinda similar to alcohol; more psychedelic. As someone who has always struggled with depression and has done ketamine, it does seem like it would be a good fast-acting, but short half-life anti-depressant (the afterglow lasts well after the buzz). Never knew anyone who abused it habitually, long term. Heard it messes up your bladder.
I have some ketamine using friends, it is still way better than coke. I tried it once but dis not feel it’s effect at all 😆 the one who invited me explained it’s effect as I describe my neurodivergence symptoms 🤣 we came to the conclusion that it may makes non neurodivergent people just a bit neurodivergent 🤪
But we were stoned at a music festival, so there is that
People always say things like that as if that some kind of argument in its favor.
Being stabbed is better than being shot, but I wouldn't consider either them to be particularly good for your health.
Oh, that was not my intention, there are far better drugs than K, even some, which don’t destroy your body.
But when I compare friends who use coke vs who use K, well, there is a big difference. Coke using people tend to get on my nerves (even if they are not on coke right now) and get dumber in some ways, while with people using K, I don't have that.
😃 very good to hear that you managed to get away from coke 🫶🏻
Yea, maybe it more manageable to consume K responsible than coke but on heavy use it goes in a similar direction 🤔
But nonetheless, everyone reading this, stay away from K, coke, Xanax, benzodiazepines, meth, opiates and all the other that I forgot, those are all very dangerous.
"Afterglow" - That's a term I've been searching for, for the past 4-1/2 years now. I've been trying to describe the day after a mushroom trip. Thanks.
Wish people would stop blaming this on ketamine, a dissociative drug that is very safe (used on children and small animals for surgery), and that typically has the exact opposite effect of how Elon is behaving.
This is 100% him. This is in spite of the ketamine.
