Comparing Pharmacological VS Psychedelic Treatments for Anxiety Disorders
This document compares pharmacological and psychedelic treatments for anxiety disorders. It discusses how anxiety disorders are commonly treated using medications like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), benzodiazepines, and tricyclic antidepressants. These drugs are generally considered safe and effective by the FDA. However, they can have side effects like insomnia, weight gain, and sexual dysfunction. The document also explores how psychedelics like psilocybin, LSD, and mescaline may help treat anxiety disorders by increasing serotonin levels in the brain. Some research suggests psychedelic therapy could be useful, but more studies are still needed.

Cannabis contains hundreds of compounds that can have various pharmacological effects. While cannabis has been used for thousands of years, the evidence for its medical efficacy is still limited due to poor study quality. Short-term cannabis use can cause adverse effects like anxiety and impaired cognition, while long-term use has been associated with sustained cognitive impairment. The effects of cannabis vary depending on factors like dosage, route of administration, and drug interactions. More research is still needed to fully understand how cannabis works and its risks and benefits.
Solar energy ppt
Solar energy is energy from the sun that can be converted into thermal or electric energy.

Drugs of abuse
Drugs of abuse refers to the improper use of drugs that cause euphoria. The document discusses various drugs of abuse including alcohol, nicotine, and marijuana. Alcohol is obtained through fermentation or distillation and can cause central nervous system depression as well as long term health issues like cirrhosis of the liver. Nicotine is the active ingredient in tobacco and is highly addictive, causing withdrawal symptoms when someone stops smoking. Its long term effects include depression, lung cancer, heart disease, and lung conditions. Marijuana's active ingredient is THC and its short term effects are increased heart rate and appetite as well as impaired concentration and memory. Long term marijuana use can lead to breathing problems and lung cancer.
Cns stimulants updated 2020
1. CNS stimulants such as caffeine, amphetamines, cocaine, and nicotine elevate mood, increase alertness and motor activity, and decrease fatigue and sleep. They have therapeutic uses but also high potential for abuse and addiction.

People have used marijuana and hemp for thousands of years, but in the 20th century a powerful individual made it illegal worldwide due to moral objections. Marijuana was recently reclassified under UK drug laws, and while it has nicknames like ganja and herb, it can negatively impact health by increasing heart rate and risk of cancer, panic attacks, and memory loss or coordination issues in both short and long term use. Treatments include rehabilitation programs and lifestyle changes.

Some common nicknames for Rohypnol include "Roofies" and "Ruffies". Treatment for Rohypnol addiction involves detoxification, working with drug addiction professionals, acquiring new behaviors to replace addiction, and removing oneself from previous lifestyle and social circles associated with drug use. Both short and long term effects of Rohypnol can be dangerous, with short term effects including headaches, anxiety and confusion, and long term effects including delirium, convulsions and hallucinations

While it was once believed to have medicinal properties, we now understand that tobacco use primarily causes negative health effects.

Treatment for khat addiction involves the prescription drug bromocriptine to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

Methamphetamine was first synthesized in 1887 in Germany and was later used medically to treat various conditions. More potent forms were later discovered, including one used by Japanese military during World War II to keep soldiers alert. In the 1950s, legal methamphetamine tablets were produced and misused. By the 1960s, injectable meth became widely abused. While production of injectable meth was restricted in the 1970s, it continued to be made illegally. Methamphetamine is classified as a psychoactive stimulant that can have serious physical and health risks with addiction being very difficult to treat.

It also lists other Advil products beyond the original tablets and warns that Advil can cause drowsiness, affect the heart, and should not be used in the third trimester of pregnancy due to risks for premature ductus arteriosus closure.

Codeine is a narcotic pain reliever and cough suppressant that should only be used under a doctor's supervision. It can cause side effects like dizziness, nausea, vomiting, constipation, and difficulty breathing. Codeine is often combined with other drugs in cough and cold medicines. It was referred to by nicknames like "lean" and "syrup" on the streets and was mentioned in a song by a rapper who later died from an overdose at age 29. Treatment for codeine addiction typically begins with medically-supervised detox followed by a longer term residential program.

Their use is illegal without a prescription but some athletes still take them despite the dangers.
