A puff of this, and the world transforms into a colorful kaleidoscope of dancing patterns and waves of sound; a sip of that, and the muscles in your body relax like jello.

We know different drugs make us experience the world around us in very different ways — and their after-effects are often nowhere near as pleasant as the immediate results they produce.

So what exactly are these drugs doing to prompt these feelings?

    You're confusing psychological addiction with physical addiction. Lots of things are psychological addicting, even reading Soylent news and internet use in general. Shit, I see people so spaced out, staring at their phones (facebook?) that they walk right into traffic. Seems that one of the biggest killers now is caused from being distracted by the phone while driving.
