> There is no ”drugs” that is ”the purest form of pleasure”

Yeah, I mean I think we barely know what that would even be. But some drugs come pretty damn close I'd wager, and I'm not talking about vanilla or ethylvanillin.

I think if you've dabbled in opiates, you've come pretty close to what the purest form of pleasure would feel like.

Most ”normal” people react to opiates/opioids with intense nausea and discomfort.

People unable to feel the full spectrum of pleasure sober have quite a different experience, since these substances completely eradicate any pain, grief, anxiety and stress that commonly prevents pleasurable feelings for occurring.
