Marijuana is its own special category, but club drugs (which for some reason include date rape drugs), inhalants and steroids are all in a “miscellaneous” category together?

Also, note all the ridiculous drug propaganda lies.

    I could have sworn nicotine was technically a stimulant because it has vasoconstrictive properties.

    And I don’t know anyone who has ever put off going to sleep in order to take more depressants.

      Nicotine is absolutely classified as a stimulant.

      This isn’t the first time I’ve heard a user misclassify it—I imagine it has something to do with smoking or dipping mitigating withdrawal (thus relaxing) more than the drug’s actual effects.

      I fucked it up - thanks for pointing it out, fixed it. (I switched them because smoking a cig relaxes me quite a bit.)
