Ahh yes, all drugs do the same thing and are all bad right? Caffeine should be banned.

I found that I experienced something similar on stuff as light as adderal/vyvanse/focalin or cigarettes.

As someone who has taken most of the stuff out there I agree with trabant that they help return exit 0, and think it's proportional to the euphoria the drug produces.

I don't think we need to ban them but we need to be honest with ourselves that we're sticking cattle prods in our brains, and to enjoy them for what they are :)

Perhaps I should have included /s Prohibition is not the answer, and while programming comparisons may have their place, comparing thoughts to a program is not accurate, especially when discussing psychoactive compounds. Different drugs do vastly different things in the brain.
