Green Grog

Green Grog, also known as Frog Skin among other names, is a psychoactive drug from the Groganious plant used for medical or recreational purposes. The primary psychoactive component of Green Grog is Tetraulegroganoids (TUG), one of the few known compounds in the plant, including at least 3 other Groganoids. Green Grog can be used by smoking, within food, or as an extract.   Green Grog has mental and physical effects. It causes a high, or stoned, feeling and other effects including a general change in perception, difficulty thinking, impaired short-term memory, altered sense of time, impaired body movement, relaxation, and an increase in appetite. At high doses, mental effects include psychosis, delusions, hallucinations, paranoia, and ideas of reference, sometimes with anxiety and panic. Its physical effects include increased heart rate, difficulty breathing, nausea, and behavioral problems in children whose mothers used Green Grog during pregnancy. Short-term side effects may include dry mouth, red eyes, and feelings of paranoia or anxiety. Long-term adverse effects may include addiction, decreased mental ability in those who started regular use as adolescents, chronic coughing, and susceptibility to respiratory infections. There is a strong relation between Green Grog use and the risk of psychosis, though the cause-and-effect is debated. Onset of effects is felt within minutes when smoked, and about 30 to 60 minutes when cooked and eaten. The effects last for two to six hours.   While Green Grog plants have been grown since at least the 1st age, evidence suggests it was being smoked for psychoactive effects at least 2,500 years ago in the Pamir Mountains. Since the early 8th century, Green Grog has been subject to legal restrictions. The possession, use, and cultivation of Green Grog is illegal in most countries of the world. In 813, Debia became the first country to legalize recreational use of Green Grog.
