Which is the most addictive substance listed here?

What do you think is the most addictive substance? By this he is not factoring in physical symptoms. He wants to know which one gets SWIY the most psychologically?

Swivy's guess was H, but was almost tempted to pick cocaine. She's used coke and opiates both, and by far the opiates has her hooked psychologically way more than any coke has. With coke, Swivy can take it or leave it, but with stronger opiates, Swivy has a harder time resisting. Something about the euphoric rush of a strong opiate has her hooked, whereas coke is more like a novelty Swiv would never attempt to seek out, saving her usage of that drug for the random times it pops up at parties or whatnot.

Re: Which is the most addictive substance listed here?

Red Rock had to select heroin due to having much more experience with that, but crack/cocaine and methamphetamine is a very close 2nd or 3rd on his list. If nicotine were on there, he might have selected that first or 2nd in terms of addictive potential but since its not, he will stick with heroin.

Re: Which is the most addictive substance listed here?

Once swim would definitely have said opiates.But she`s been scripted for a long time & no longer gets a rush.
Psychologically swim is more dependant on speed than anything else.Unfortunately the speed in uk never seems top quality these days & though it usually gives swim a lift she longs for some base or some genuine pink champagne.Yes folks,genuine - not just everyday wizz with pink food colouring added!Hah!The things people do in order to wring a bit more cash from the product.Swim wishes she was a chemist!
If swim adds charlie to her amps then (if she`s lucky enough to get a hit properly ie no miss or leakage)she will get a rush.If it were more affordable she`d use it more probably.
However in swims opinion its way overpriced & swims been told its crap at the moment anyway.
If swim could get her drug of choice it would always be base speed.
Swim has a huge psychological addiction to it.
But with her script as well of course.The physical addiction to speed is pretty minor - esp compared to the hell of methadone withdrawals.But swim finds it almost impossible to go without speed - even for just a day.

Re: Which is the most addictive substance listed here?

H closely followed by Thai Yabba, the way you smoke the meth is very alike to smoking H. The first time swim smoked yabba, he went on a 6 day binge, smoking everyday, 3 - 6 tablets. The rush is very enjoyable, and H really helps with the comedown.

Re: Which is the most addictive substance listed here?

swim voted H, as swim isn't likely to get addicted to others.

Swim has a feeling the stimulants might be addictive in more subtle way, yet after experimenting a few times still can't justify the use for pleasure, let alone gaining addiction.

Swim couldn't find nicotine

alcohol

If you could smoke it/inject it without killing yourself, there wouldn't be a market for heroin.

Re: Which is the most addictive substance listed here?

perhaps it may depend on defining addictive. factor brain chemistry, personality, metabolism and availability . experience rates benzoids.
