Dissociatives

Dissociatives

Dissociatives are a class of psychoactive substances that induce a temporary state of detachment from one's surroundings, resulting in altered perceptions, sensations, and experiences. These substances, also known as dissociative anesthetics, act by disrupting the normal functioning of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, leading to a dissociative or out-of-body experience. Dissociatives encompass a range of substances, including ketamine, phencyclidine (PCP), and dextromethorphan (DXM). As an emerging field of research and recreational use, dissociatives offer unique effects that may have potential therapeutic applications and are often sought after for their hallucinogenic and sedative properties.
