A fact that is little known by many is that bupropion is quite psychoactive when taken properly. Taken in its original (time released) form, it's practically worthless to get high on, but if you crush the pills up and swallow or snort the powder, it's an interesting ride. You drift off to your own special fuzzy, happy place, and your whole body feels so good, it almost brings you to tears. The bad part is yet to come, though. When you first start, the effects last about half an hour to forty-five minutes; as you keep using it, though, it gets shorter, and the effects are milder. Even with an increased dosage. After about a week or so of use, the effects are only prevalent for about ten minutes, then they taper away. This stuff eventually can become quite psychologically addictive. It also makes you numb entirely to emotion when you use it chronically. Eventually (for me, anyway) it induces a state much similar to schizophrenia with a lot of paranoia, anxiety attacks, and just basic isolationism.
