I'm writing a story where the main character takes a lot of drugs- now, I know a bit about drugs, and a lot about drugs as someone who knows people who've taken a large assortment of drugs, but I'd like to write from their perspective a few times.

Not in an edgy way, just as a very matter of fact sort of way, as them using drugs as a way to self medicate their anxiety (which may or may not be exacerbated by their drug use) is there a website where you can look that kind of stuff up? I know there must be, but googling it just gives me a lot of "drugs are bad and you shouldn't do them" results.

Also, let's make this a general sharing thread- anybody writing a book post something they're interested in knowing, and anons post experiences or websites that might help.

Try Dale Pendell's Pharmako trilogy. It combines the chemistry and effects with history and literature of the subject.

Why not try taking them?

PiHKAL and TiHKAL might be useful if you can find them.

A couple reasons, most important being that I'm pretty unstable and my friends experienced in drugs have always warned me not to take anything "hard" like LSD. Secondly, I hate the feeling the drugs I have taken (spice, weed) have given me. I hate feeling like I don't have control of my body or what I'm experiencing. I'm an on again, off again almost alcoholic and I won't even drink too much at a time, because I hate the queasiness or "rocking".

I hope you're just a clever troll.

If not, wait till you've graduated high school and actually had some life experience so you can write something inspired instead of edgy tween drama crap about that one time you smoked week with a tweaked out future jailbird
