Talk:Afterglow (drug culture)

clarification?
"afterglow refers to the positive physical and mental effects that linger after the effects of a drug have worn off..."

I'd consider afterglow an effect of the drug. Perhaps a modifier could be used for the phrase "the [] effects of a drug"? Xiner 03:03, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

DRUGS?
I've _ONLY_ ever heard this word used in terms of post-coitus. The similarities are obvious, but... could this be a case of an associated usage eclipsing the original one?

Article Rename, and re-focus
Perhaps since this is a Pharmacology article as well the article should be renamed to afterglow (psychedelic therapy)? I can dig up a few references from MAPS that talk about patients reporting a more positive outlook and alleviated depression and increased spiritual awareness for days and weeks following a psilocybin session? Also the wikipedia article on ketamine references studies were a small dose resulted in a long-lasting anti-depressant effect in some cases.

Any thoughts? L.livnev (talk) 08:37, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
