Comedowns
Comedown is the deterioration in mood that occurs during the offset of a psychoactive substance, most commonly stimulants but can occur with most drug classes such as opiates or alcohol. The oposite of a comedown would be an afterglow, more commonly experienced after dissociatives or psychedelics. The comedown is distinct from withdrawal because it can happen to non tolerant users unlike withdrawal which is more likely to happen in users who are dependent on the drug.
