It's doable, takes a lot more dedication and natural intelligence. If you don't have the kind of parents that can assist with at least a local state or community college, then you aren't likely to have been in a school district to have taught you the requisite math and science skills to teach yourself real chemistry. Maybe you can follow along with somebody else's instructions and a lot of help online and have a little success with easier routes. You're going to need to at least get some financial aid and go to community college to get those to make sense of most chemistry textbooks. But to teach yourself literally everything you need to do real chem on your own you are going to need to be very driven, and gifted. And at least lucky enough to have lived in a decent public school district despite your family's financial standing. And to get very far with it, at least safely, you need a substantial amount of financial resources for glassware. I.E. not already addicted to drugs, and not just driven to get high, but a real love and without the distraction, financial drain, or stress of supporting a habit. And then you still can't get a real job in the industry. So basically a genius wasting their fucking time and gifts. When they could be doing something meaningful, or could go get a real education on the relative cheap at a state school and get a real job doing what you love and pay your loans off in no time. So what's the point? Takes a lot of stars lining up right to get further than shake and bake, to have a real understanding that you can practically apply. Glassware to do something with it. And access to the needed catalysts and precursors. Meth is one of the easiest drug synthesis there are. And you can't really make anything much more interesting than that without real equipment. Even if, you're likely to have all kind of nasty contaminants in it if you do it self-taught with a DIY rig. Especially nowadays when you have to make precursors yourself. Do it any other way and you're likely to be akin to a moonshiner making liquor with a rusted out car radiator. End up something that no one should really consume, and poison or hurt yourself in the process of making it. I mean if you're smart you can teach yourself theoretical quantum physics, rocket science, medicine. All easier than teaching yourself chemistry honestly, as none require equipment. But without credentials, you're never going to be able to use them in a meaningful way. So why bother? It'll barely amount to a hobby. Of course I say that as somebody who knows more about neuropharmacology than most psychiatrists. Even without a related degree was asked to become a research assistant once, but it didn't pay enough to survive on, lol. Edited by Holybullshit (01/25/24 03:45 PM)
