Did you read the article? Google is not an insurance company. So, why is my hospital sharing information with them? And why wasn’t that disclosed in the privacy policy?
Those are the types of questions this study raises.

Actually, they added a methyl group to MDA. MDMA is also less potent by weight than both MDA and methamphetamine and clinically safer than both.
As far as abuse potential, it’s basically very shitty speed when you try to take it to often. The primary mechanism of action is way different than methamphetamine. Which makes it very hard to redose and get high again. This means it has a difficult time forming the dopamine reward cycle we see with cocaine and methamphetamine.
It’s also never smoked and rarely shot, which are the two routes of administration that most easily set up dopamine reward pathways because the drug kicks in so much faster than via ingestion.
Which isn’t to say people won’t try to abuse it. But that has way more to do with the person’s personality type than the drug, as MDMA really doesn’t have the same abuse potential as it’s parent compound (MDA) or it’s relative (methamphetamine).
In my experience, MDMA is less addictive than sex or video games and isn’t on the same level as methamphetamine at all (and I’ve shot both).

We used to call it E. MDMA I mean. We used to call X Twitter.
Now we just call it a dumpster fire. X I mean. E is still pretty good tbh.
So if they have higher literacy you’re saying capitalist countries don’t meet the criteria for minimum acceptable education?
For sure! Glad you made it over :)
Crazy. Most subs have strict rules against name calling. I guess it doesn’t count when they’re using language the mods approve of.
Sam Harris has a real hardon for bashing religion which is sad considering how much Buddhism he practices (and how much his close mind and anger towards religion corrupts his practice).
Meditation is just mental masterbation and ego parlor tricks without the Dharma (the deep ocean of love and understanding we all swim in, what more enlightened Christians call God.) So much for “Waking Up”.
Which is my way of saying, militant atheists are children making a religion out of bashing people with points of view they don’t like (kinda reminds me of bible beating Christians and I’m sure they would loathe the comparison). And I too find them annoying as fuck.
the content has gone to shit anyway. i still scroll there some to keep up with news and generally don’t find much news and way to many amiugly posts on the front page.
I’m not addicted to anything other than dodging mu uncomfortable feelings.
Which I am super addicted to so I end up on lemmy alot!
I guess I don’t associate caffeine withdrawal headache with migraine as I don’t generally get migraines but tension headaches instead.
The caffeine withdrawal felt like my head was imploding, if that makes sense. Not sure if that’s a migraine or if opioids were making it worse, but the Vicodin I was prescribed absolutely had 500mg of Tylenol in it; and only 5mg of hydrocodone.
A week of this was terrible and it did not improved. I have sense learned to moderate caffeine and often drink tea instead of coffee or even decaf or halfcaff when I want to cut down. I will never try to cold turkey it again.
i have a friend that ate a lot of the stuff. i know it can be toxic at high doses but i would call it psychoactive more than poisonous.
also see my comment regarding some bugs like psychedelics (I’ve heard of slugs and racoons going after outdoor psilocybin beds)
but we’re not talking about migraines.
we’re talking about caffeine withdrawal headaches.
neither of which are 💯 understood but that doesn’t make them the same.
plus, Vicodin has Tylenol in it. so i was taking Tylenol.
Depends on how bad your caffeine addiction is. I tried cold turkey when I had a tooth pulled when I was drinking a pot of coffee a day.
A week in bed on Vicodin and Percocet, didn’t touch that headache and it didn’t improve or go away until I drank coffee.
Oddly, I ate a large bag of mushrooms and got tazed by the cops one night. Ended up in the psych ward. Was able to cold turkey the coffee after that. Not sure if it was the mushrooms or the juice from the tazer.
Weed is physically addictive. Withdrawal is very mild and only lasts a few days but it can happen with heavy use.
I didn’t experience it until I got into edibles and vaping concentrates and I had used weed regularly off and on for twenty years at that point.
So it takes heavy use, but physical withdrawal is a real thing with weed. But as I said, it’s the only drug I’ve been addicted to I would cold turkey.
There’s withdrawal but of the four drugs i have been physically addicted to (caffeine, weed, nicotine, and SSRIs) it’s the only one I can cold turkey in under a week and feel fine.
