Alcohol is a depressant my man.

Neurologically speaking, so in a different context, yeah, but neurological depression also seems to lead to actual depression, the mood disorder, which also show up as neurological depression.

We really need better imaging tools to measure neurotransmitter activity, would make for several advancements I'd say

Anhedonia is horrifying if you think about it.

It’s horrifying if you feel it too

I've heard that drugs, including alcohol, trigger the chemicals in our brains that make us feel "happy". After the effects wear off, our natural "happiness" level is even lower than it was before. This is why we feel the need to use the drug again, and over time, we also have to take more of it to feel the same level of "happiness".

Doesn't "depressant" have more to do with your body's functions and not necessarily the depression we think about? Been a long time since high school health and EMT classes.

[–] arefx@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Yes, but if you become an alcoholic you will be depressed and feel like a piece of shit regardless.

8.5 years sober, thank fucking god.

Crucially, it doesn't seem like one while you're high on it. For most people anyways.

Green Maeng Dae and THC gummies are all that keeps me going some days

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Kratom cut my drinking by 80%. Haven't had a single beer at home alone in years. Still go out occasionally with friends, so not a recluse or anything, just the excess stuff.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Man, I've been tempted. I've started saying I'd try a drug if it was ever offered, because I'm too much of a coward to figure out how to get it myself. I have an additive personality, so I know it would kill me and, honestly, I'm fine with that.

Silver or gold spray paint in a sock is good for staying frosty.

Everything is less fun since I got clean.

[–] Dorkyd68@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Alcohol will just make you more depressed eventually. Haven't tried fentany.... yetl, will slam one iv style and report back

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Omigod don't. It's so bad.
