I'm pretty sure DXM is safe so long as you don't mainline it.

As for street drugs like heroin and meth, you never know what's really in the stuff unless you test it yourself. I've heard gangsters putting anything from sleeping pill powder to sand in H so shooting up that junk would most likely do more damage than putting holes in your brain.
Just because it doesn't make your brain resemble Swiss cheese must mean its safe, right? Since you make a point about untrustworthy sources, how's this: DXM has been found to have no efficacy as a cough suppressant and yet is classed as an NMDA antagonist. You got played by the pusher, and you're rationalizing it just so you can get fucked up off of "cough" medicine. rETARD

lol I make a point that agrees with you then you lash out at me trying to disagree with anything you can pick apart in a few lines of text I wrote.

why are you following me around saying negative one liners at anything I post? Are you another one of those people who fixate on weak individuals so your can stroke your ego?

It's pretty common knowledge that alcohol and huffing volatile solvents kill brain cells... in fact that's how solvents get you high, by killing your brain cells. shit dude I huff raid. but fortunately i seem to so far be in the clear. And alcohol fucks your liver. fact. and can cause oral cancer (or rectal if that is your preferred method of administration, etc.) injecting heroin mixed mixed with vinegar or acids damages veins.

It's all about the extent of damage done... drinking a glass of red wine per week is a much healthier way of drinking alcohol for example than slamming down a bottle of vodka every night.

I can understand why you would think that I was implying that drugs made me smarter. Now that think about it, I would probably have thought the same, had someone else written what I wrote. That was not actually what was written, though, and it was not my intention to imply it.

I think things like meth and rolls are much more likely to cause long term damage to your intelligence than opiates. That's what I've witnessed in people anyway, people who get clean from a few years on opes seem to be able to get their heads straight fairly quick.

Meth and rolls though, well that appears to lead to a lifetime (or at least a few months/years) of retardation.

moderate weed usage arguably opens your mind to new thought patterns; other drugs probably do as well.

everything you write is either teenage bullshit or excuses for said teenage bullshit. this is not the kiddy section so GTFO.
