This subjective effects index exists to serve as a comprehensive map of the potential experiences which occur under the influence of any and all psychoactive compounds.
The subjective effect components listed below each include a detailed literary description of how it feels to experience them. These are written in an objective and consistent writing style which is based upon technical description and avoids the use of metaphor or analogy. Many of the effects are further broken down into levelling systems, subcomponents and potential variations in style which can occur across different substances. Along side of this, detailed analysis sections and replications of visual effects are included whenever possible in the form of image and video examples.
The content within this index is community-driven and based upon the collective experiences of our contributors.
