> "Feel-good" doesn't necessarily equal "inner focus". I've been around enough people who use stimulants recreationally to know the difference, and it really is different if you have ADD. I can't get a high from stimulants, but I definitely get a psychiatric benefit from low doses.
Yes, I'm aware. I just meant that the "feel-good" stimulants, those with strong dopamine action, are
less likely to cause nervousness, jitters, and more likely to promote that "inner focus." I'm speaking of low doses, of course.You can't get high off of a stimulant?
At theraputic doses, perhaps not, but it would probably be just as easy for you to get high snorting crystal meth as anybody else.. and that's my only point.
