“I’ve been hearing research into microdosing on LSD. What are the pros and cons of it, potential safety, how do you ensure you’re taking the right dose in an unregulated market, if it can cause hallucinations and if so to what degree, and what age recommendations does this come with. And if it can’t cause hallucinations, is it safe to drive or not?”

02:24

“Which nootropics have you tested? Are the legal/non-prescription ones worth looking in to?”

03:47

“Why haven’t you made a video on cannabis yet?”

04:33

“Xanax and all them pharmaceuticals steal peoples minds.”

05:25

“I have two Concerta pills, but I don’t have ADHD. Is is safe for me to take them? Am I going to get addicted or have long-term effects? By the way, I sometimes feel depressed. ”

The Drug Classroom (TDC) is dedicated to providing the type of drug education everyone should have. Drugs are never going to leave our society and there has never been a society free from drugs.

Therefore, it only makes sense to provide real education free from propaganda.

TDC doesn’t advocate drug use. Rather, we operate with the intention of reducing the harm some substances can bring.

Feel free to ask questions!

    Could you do a video on porn? I know it's not really a drug but I feel that it has potential for addiction, especially for those with depression. Though it may sound like a joke, I myself have struggled with porn addiction and would like to know more about it.

    I have ADHD and I am prescribed 36mg concerta. I m surprised how you recommended to take less than one to the recreative user, as I don't see how it would be possible to do it due to the nature of the LP pill. Crush it to become some kind of paste and leave half or something? Also I d add I don't think this substance has good recreational potential compared to other stimulant substances as there is very little euphoria and you kinda need to gradually build a tolerance to have more good effects than negative side effects. Once I stopped to take my treatment for several weeks in a row, and it was really weird when I took a pill again. I was nervous with increased heart rate etc.. but really nothing enjoyable compared to a line of coke or something..Maybe just felt bad because I didnt take the pill with the intent to feel that much of a boost on just another normal day tho..

    microdsoing lsd is getting more known as for its effects and why people experiment with it. I was wondering if you know more about experimenting with low dose for other drugs like amphetamine (speed) and other drugs to. I can imagine people want to try microdosing with other drugs but it is hard to find a lot of information about that.
    Thank you!

    Wow, I did not know you did so much research for these videos. Respect dude. I hope your channel wil become big, you deserve it.
    Also quick question, do you think Ritalin is neurotoxic? I take around 40-60 mg almost each day (3 or 4 times 15mg)
    I feel I have become a bit addicted to it, I know the amount I take is pretty normal but I'm also on 100mg sentraline (zoloft) which potentiates the Ritalin and can cause seratonine sydrom or something like that. I also notice I crave it when I'm bored or I need it for certain activities.
    Anyway keep up the great vids and thanks for the awesome content!

    Seth, I can see you're quite busy researching for some future videos, but I want to make a request for three videos: 1. Clonidine-an alpha-2a adrenergic agonist antihypertensive and sedative used in the treatment of hypertension, ADHD, and various drug cessation regimens. Also Hydroxyzine, a piperizine antihistamine, anxiolytic, and antiemetic that has also been personally useful for nausea and anxiety. Finally ondansetron, a 5ht-3 antagonist antiemetic used in clinical and outpatient management of nausea and postanesthetic shivering, which promises some relief of negative symptoms of schizophrenia but also has a dangerous trait in prolongation of the QT interval of the cardiac cycle, potentially causing arrhythmias when combined with like agents.
    Your video on dextromethorphan was very informative and helpful, but I think you could provide a great service to your viewers if you made a video expounding on its dangerous and interactions-this information is widely available but your channel is a convenient go-to guide for people seeking harm reduction information. Thanks.

    love your videos man! I wish there were more channels that make informative drug videos like yours.. I have epilepsy and it is currently under control (due to me being on a stupid high dose of lamotrigine (brand Lamictal XR) at 500mg/day. can you make a video about lamotrigine? it's mainly used for bipolar but is also a second line of treatment for epilepsy. thanks!

    Can you make a video about memantine? And look into research regarding it to combat adderall tolerance?

    I misread the title and thought this video was going to talk about microdosing methylphenidate. This is definitely something I'd like to know more about; there's loads of anecdotal info about microdosing psychedelics like LSD but very little on microdosing stimulants, but of what little there *is*, there is some conflicting information.
