Different addictive substances have different effects. This includes coffee, weed, Ayahuasca, sugar.

In the brain you can see that they replace or block certain natural chemicals. So they can make you fake-happy (alcohol) or fake-awake (coffee).

I think that the problem is that these substances pull you into astral spaces that switch off part of your consciousness. These astral spaces may seem great, but are also full with spirits (as in the video). Also religions have astral spaces, and via chanting or praying people get into it. Similar effect, so you see sometimes addicts replacing addiction with religion.

So take care with any one of them.

You display a rare understanding of the reality of these matters. I am impressed. Well done.
