In reply to drug of choice, posted by thinkfast on December 5, 2004, at 1:28:48
> Anyone have any good info or wisdom on people and their drug of choice? I've just been wondering about people knowing what chemical actually helps them out. I'm just trying to perhaps get some useful info from my drug abuse past and it's relation to the medication ordeal. Do we really know what is best for ourselves, or must we leave it up to someone else? In reality, it comes down to that anyway. Some meds work and some don't. Some meds make me crave "other" drugs less. Effexor took care of the alcohol. Seroquel gives me sleep, and I used to smoke weed everyday to get that. The last one is un-resolved. I can't decide if this is an addiction or if it is actually something that would benefit me. It's the amphetamines. I've been trying to figure this out for a year or two. I've got strattera now, but it doesn't quite hit the right spot. I can't decide if I'm being honest with myself or if I've fabricated the whole thing and now I am un-aware of my previous tracks. ::::Pulls hair out:::: I have to figure this out a.s.a.p or I "will" go insane! hehe Not quite, but any replies would be appreciated. Thanx
It really depends more on your reaction to the given drug than anything else. If you're taking something you need, you will often find that it affects you differently than others around you who are doing the same thing. For example, if the speed gives you a sense of calm, control, or KEEPS your mind from racing, then you have ADD. Of course, you can overshoot the mark, and then just speed out like the average person. But if you've ever found that you passed through a stage when you experienced the above, then you have ADD.
