Default Re: What could be a good recreational drug for my story?

Pick some random syllables? Basically no drugs are named for their effects anyway even in street names (you don't think crack or pot or moonshine are actually descriptive do you?), and commercial drugs are named from more or less randomly selected bits of chemical names (incidentally thionite is built on one of those models: thio- means sulfur, -ite is a common suffix for "earths" - not exactly a chemical category anymore but...)
