exactly. lots of recreational drugs are being tested for medical uses. cannabis is famously being used for a broad range of medical uses.
but my point is that I can take CHEMICAL-X for its intended purpose or for my own purpose, and there’s a difference between the two. one is medication, and one is recreation-- and yes it’s possible to take it for a mix of both reasons.
whether I get it from a pharmacy or someone at a party is irrelevant (for the context of this conversation).
Ok, but a lot of research chemicals’ intended purposes are opening your mind, and them doing anything helpful is a bizarre off label usage that happens to work.
