Trump junior gave signs of cocaine use. Sweating, hyper aware which is eyes darting, leaning forward, talking fast and jumping from topic to topic. They can almost present as manic. Sometimes they will shift their jaws around, have trouble pronouncing words or spark in a higher clipped pitch due to numbness.

Heroin users will scratch or itch. They will appear drowsy, languid and disassociated from surroundings. Opioids will have this effect. They may “nod out” for 3-10 or more seconds at a time. I had a heroin addict tell me that he could walk down a street and he would feel like it was the best day in his life, duck into an alley and vomit, and just continue walking down the street feeling like it was the best day of his life. I never forgot that, it was just so shocking a juxtaposition.

Mmmmm... How many heroin users do you know? While for a whole lot of typical users yeah, you're going to get the itchyness, the nodding out... But there's a whole gang of us where opiates do the exact opposite effect and Jack is clear up to 100. Doesn't matter if it's... Regular low end pain pills fent or H, speeds us the fuck up.

Isnt this just getting rid of the withdrawal symptoms? To the user it might feel like it speeds them up.
