subject: Psychedelic Pills: The Legal Euphoria In A Pill [print this page] The term euphoria gets its meaning from a Greek word which means "power of enduring easily". It is a word that is often used to describe a feeling of complete and utter satisfaction, although that feeling can be very subjective. Euphoria is generally considered to be the exaggerated result of an abnormal psychological state.
Medically, euphoria is recognized as a mental and emotional state. It is defined by a great and usually inflated sense of elation and well-being. Euphoria is a term often used colloquially to define an emotion reminiscent of intense transcendent happiness, even though euphoria itself is technically the effect of an event that brings about an overwhelming sense of happiness.
Euphoria is an abnormal psychological state which can be achieved with or without the use of psychoactive drugs. It can even be achieved during the course of normal human experience, such as in activities that result in orgasms, the triumph of an athlete, or passing a dreaded school examination. Euphoria has even been known to occur during intense meditation and certain religious or spiritual rituals.
Artificially induced euphoria comes in the form of psychoactive drugs. These forms of euphoric drugs are mostly illegal in many countries around the world. Because of this, many legal alternatives to the psychoactive drug have begun receiving commercial attention. Known informally as the psychedelic pill, these legally produced drugs induce a similarly altered state of elation, without the negative effects of the illegal psychoactive drugs.
Most psychedelic pills affect the users cognitive and perceptive capabilities by supposedly disabling the brains filtering activity. This prevents certain perceptions, emotions, thoughts and memories from reaching the conscious mind. The experience is said to be comparable to being in a trance, or meditation, or dreaming.
Legal alternatives for recreational drugs have begun appearing in the local party scene because of the ban on psychoactive drugs. Many distributors have included alternative recreational drugs in their merchandise, which includes psychedelic pills, party pills, as well as other legal drugs that serve as methamphetamine or ecstasy analogues, which mimic the effects of meth and ecstasy without the debilitating effects of addiction.
