No. the word depress is used in two different contexts here. When we call a drug a depressent we mean that it depresses some activity. Like alcohol depresses the breathing reflex, eventually causing it to stop completely. When we say stimulant we mean it stimulates something, like amphetamines stimulate the heart, eventually causing it to have an attack. When we talk about people being depressed we are talking about mood seeming down. When we say they are stimulated, we mean that they have been very interested by something. Do NOT EVER use a drug in a manner inconsistent with the directions. No high is worth the trip to the ER, the unpleasant side effects or dying. Your luck can only hold out so long and your health WILL be affected. If you want a mood elevator, try excersize. It releases a flood of endorphins and makes you feel amazing. This is also true for thrill-seeking activities like sky-diving or riding a roller coaster. Even trying to think more optimisitically can have a chemical effect in your brain. And, it's way cheaper. :) Hope this helps!
<"SNORTING"> MEDICATIONI HAVE ANSWERED SIMILAR questions and will attempt to answer your question. ANY medication has multiple ways of getting into your system. It can be swallowed, taken rectally, put under your tongue, or "snorted", among other ways. No matter which way it is taken, the result will depend on the MEDICATION taken, NOT the WAY it is taken. The only difference is how quickly the medication is absorbed. Some people think that because you "snort" something, it will get you high or be a stimulant, because snorting is usually associated with cocaine, which will act as a stimulant. But snorting an antidepressant will NOT act as a stimulant. ONLY snorting a STIMULANT will make you "high" or feel like a stimulant. On the same token, a STIMULANT such as cocaine will make you "high", or act as a stimulant, no matter which way you take it. If cocaine is taken rectally, snorted, put under your tongue, eaten or injected, it will act the SAME WAY; as a stimulant. I hope this clears up the issue of "snorting" medication, and I have answered the question in a clear manner. <<>>You could, but the only thing that is likely to happen is that your nose will burn and you might have a nosebleed. You more than likely aren't going to get a pleasant high off of an anti-depressant.
Too much of anything can be toxic or have adverse symptoms. Anti-Depressants have different classes for their mechanisms, so its too vague when you mentioned anti-depressants in general.
No
no, that would be ANTI-depressants....
Anti-depressants are named for their ability to treat depression (anti-depression). But in order for these medications to work, they typically decrease or "depress" the ability of the central nervous system (CNS) to respond to stimuli. For that reason, "depressants" are used as anti-depressants.
Doctors usually can proscribe anti depressants and other medications because you can't get those over the counter.
You don't take depressants. You take anti-depressants, which counters being depressed.
