Uncomfortable physical effects: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

A '''discomforting physical effect''' can be defined as any substance-induced alteration of one's physical state which is unpleasant, undesirable, uncomfortable, painful or otherwise a source of distress. They most often indicate a temporary and normal part of the manner in which the substance interacts with the body but can also indicate the need for attention or medical treatment if they begin to feel unusually overwhelming.

Those who use substances, especially [[hallucinogens]], should also be aware that some of the other effects that the substance may produce (such as [[anxiety]], [[paranoia]], [[disconnective|disconnectivity]] and [[delusions]]) may lead to a distorted perception of what is actually happening the user. While this risk can be partly mitigated by taking [[responsible drug use|harm reduction measures]] such as having a knowledgeable and trustworthy [[trip sitter] to watch over and provide sober, third-party input, it should be remembered the potential consequences that may result from these effects can never be mitigated completely.
