Psychoactive substances are drugs that affect the central nervous system, altering mood, perception, and behavior. While some psychoactive substances are legal and commonly used, such as caffeine and alcohol, others are illegal and have a higher risk of abuse and addiction.
One category of psychoactive substances is "other psychoactive substances," which includes a wide range of drugs that are not classified as opioids, depressants, stimulants, or hallucinogens. These substances can include kratom, kava, and salvia, among others.
When someone uses an unspecified psychoactive substance with intoxication, they are experiencing the effects of the drug on their body and mind. Intoxication can vary depending on the substance and the individual, but common symptoms can include altered perceptions, impaired judgment, and changes in behavior.
If you or someone you know is struggling with other psychoactive substance use and intoxication, it's important to seek help. Some signs of a problem can include increased tolerance to the drug, withdrawal symptoms when not using the drug, and continued use despite negative consequences.
Remember that recovery is possible, and seeking help is the first step towards a healthier and happier life.
