everything can be a drug, true or false

I only watch animes that were made before the 80s.

@kodec by the definition of drug "a chemical substance that alters the body" yes everything necessarily must be a drug if it reacts with your body in any way

@kodec Considering humans have the potential to become addicted to damn near anything, sure

I would probably define that by its physiological impact.

Otherwise, drug becomes a useless term.

A chair leg can be a drug then.

but wouldnt a drug aritificially increase the neuron count to you brain?

Increase neuron count?

I have never heard of such an effect.

stimilus

*do brains work that way?*

Neurons are cells.

hehe

the things sent between synapses

forgot the name

neurotransmitter

thats right

wouldnt real drugs hike your reward center unnaturally?

your premise of "naturally" here is starting at an illogical standard

yeah i am not making sense

Unnaturally?

I'm not sure what is natural or unnatural.

It does "hike it" though.

How do you differentiate the reaction between a manmade chemical and a naturally occuring chemical

manmade is home made

Why would one substance have a different reaction simply because it is naturally occuring

manmade is not home made

naturally occuring is home made

manmade is external

I guess there are some sensible distinctions. There are influences our physiology might never had to deal with.

And they do not occur naturally.

@kodec are you looking for the word "synthesized?"

So, I guess they are "unnatural" but many of the chemicals might be the same.
