Why is it that when I watch a movie or something about people on drugs?

Question

I always get this huge headache afterwards, almost as if I was on drugs?

Answer 1

you might be putting yourself in the person's shoes and imagining that you are on drugs

Answer 2

Maybe you aren't watching a movie. Maybe you're on drugs and all of that is really happening, and that's why you feel that way.

Answer 3

Maybe the stress and anxiety from either jonesing or the stress of what is happening to the person in the movie. Have you used drugs in the past? Sometimes watching drug movies early in recovery is stressful. Good Luck. Be Picker about the movies you view
