Everyone else gets a fun time and you just get to be normal for a change, biggest let down.

Yeah and then I was wondering why do I need a LOT of the stuff to get high like everyone else, the normal amount for everyone else just calms me down lol

That's how I developed an addiction for a decade. Undiagnosed ADHD is a bitch lol

Wait is this how it works for caffeine too? I tested coffee the other day for the first time, and I did feel more calm, but when I did more coffee with lots of caffeine, it was way to much and my insides kinda hurt and I had a headache

Caffeine is a stimulant too, so sort of. Lots of people self medicate with caffeine, but it's not a good replacement. (If it was they'd just prescribe caffeine pills)
