    "Seems like there's a lot of irony in psychopharmacology. People who take opiods are crippled by pain, people who take benzos are overhelmed by anxiety and insomnia and people who take stimulants are tired and unmotivated."

      and perhaps the reverse is true. People who take pain (in physical exercise) end up strong, people who take anxiety (from a philosophy like stoicism) end up with inner peace, people who take on being tired (and push on despite how they feel) end up with a drive they can use as they need to.

    @4:40 Hamilton makes a great point which goes to the core of substance abuse. When someone takes a drug to eleviate a symptom, the symptom will always come back and sometimes even stronger than before (rebound pain, anxiety etc.) which causes a continuous need for more drugs to hold back that symptom.

      i'm not so sure if that's the point he's making. when framed how you've put it, i see validity in what you're saying. but in the world around me i don't see that being a working model for substance abuse or dependence/addiction.

      @@jegr3398 logically that would be the solution. but there's not much that's logical when it comes to addiction. I could say a lot of things about drugs and drug addiction and about the culture of "recovery and rehabilitation." But I think the most important thing, the thing that is most worth sharing is that education on drugs and drug use and addiction is something that is blatantly ignored and yet it's so fucking vital. I could rephrase that to further say that education in its entirety appears to be on the decline in the u.s. right now. Culturally we don't value intelligence and we don't have inspiration to drive the pursuit of knowledge. In high school more than half of my teachers were not only terrible teachers but about half of those were shitty people as well. I'm beyond grateful for the good teachers that I had classes with. Ive met a lot of very fuckin intelligent people who struggle with drug addiction, but I have also met some people who are pretty fucking dumb and uneducated who struggle with drug addiction as well, and those are the people who always seem to have it the worst by far. They get taken advantage of the most and I can't recall knowing anyone in that kind of situation/circumstance that was able to rebound and start moving towards a better life. Always seems to be a free fall until it's not for them.

    I knew a guy named Ray who blew himself up cooking meth. He wasn't a really bad guy. It was very sad.
    He was actually a Jim Beam & Coca-Cola guy.
    He was going through a devastating divorce, and he was always kind of fragile to begin with. This other fellow, Chris, latched onto Ray while Ray was in an emotionally weak place, but still had his nice, big, empty house and plenty of money and time with his wife and kids being gone. Ray was VERY occasionally using meth, along with a few friends, at this time. (This was back in the days of occasional meth use, for real.) This sorry, sorry, Chris guy started flopping on Ray's couch, bc Ray had too good a heart. Eventually, somehow, he talked our good ol boy, Ray, into cooking up some bathtub meth recipe, for themselves.
    Soon enough, there was an incident. Ray's lungs were burned, inside, and his eyelids were burned off. He lived for a couple more years, then the severe chemical and lung damage made him sick again and he died.

      @@AHD2105 Breaking Bad isn't stupid, it's the greatest and most critically acclaimed television show ever made. If you don't like it you have terrible taste in television. Also I highly doubt it's convinced people to cook meth, if someone decided to cook meth they were already criminals and meth users in the first place, I doubt the show had anything to do with it. Also cooking meth isn't a popular thing anymore, the Mexican Cartels make all the meth in superlabs and ship it across the border. It's so cheap and plentiful there's no point in cooking it anymore, it's also much harder to get the pills needed to cook it.

He was making his own ammonia with crude household chemicals (I guess he doesn't have access to ammonia nitrates) he was supposed to build up enough pressure to produce enough concentrated ammonia to break the lithium down! He failed to do that. This is a common way to produce meth been around for like 20 years.

      This was a complete failure and yet you believed and clame you had just witnessed someone accomplish something, when no such thing was actually done.
      So even if you really believed you have seen it done before in the past…. Obviously it doesn’t take much of a show for you to be faked out, and then go on to claim you have seen something done, when it actually didn’t even happen, like this situation could easily repeat itself.

      the fire extinguisher holds certain pressure required for the chemistry to work. i mean it is built to withstand those pressures and is the cheapest solution that works for its purpose. i don't know exactly but probably makes reaching some boiling point of a molecule easier as you need less heat under high pressure.. or the high pressure interacts with some reaction in other ways. not a chemist, but that's why you can't use any other container :)
