I can't believe it's alcohol this time that initiated this prompt, it's usually other, more interesting molecules... but seriously, humans are such utterly foolish creatures to trash this truly golden opportunity presented by nature itself. No, technology does a lot of things, but currently it doesn't enhance biology itself except for physical extensions etc... but mental states is the domain of nature. Isn't it almost astounding that I can write this while drunk? I only thought being unconscious is the only state that is natural to end up in after drinking, but for me personally it seems I can still be quite coherent, while also doing other things that normally I'd hesitate about. This, though, is only after the initial 'presentation' which awfully is initiated with vomit. Although, in that sense, it's not that different from other hallucinogens that typically induce vomit since serotonin receptors are also located in the stomach area, apparently.
Sure, I still am very much interested in other substances, sedatives in comparisons are linear, only functional for a specific purpose, but that doesn't deny their usefulness as one can see... in stressful conditions as I am in currently (such judgement as humans can only be capable of) it is useful, one must admit.
But other substances... oh, what else would Aldous Huxley have experienced had his time not expired? But he did so until the very end... as I'd be resolved to do if I was in such a terminal condition. Truly, hallucinogens are the wonder of life.
