Episode description

In recent years, a phenomenon referred to as “digital drugs” has emerged, garnering both interest and skepticism within various communities.

This article aims to explore the concept of digital drugs, the demographics encompassing their use, the motivations behind their consumption, and the implications for both mental health and drug culture.
