Russians suffering from boredom are entertaining themselves by taking hallucinogenic drugs and washing them down with stiff shots of vodka.<\/p>\n

Troops deep in the trenches of occupied Ukraine are finding life so tedious they are smoking "salt", which causes horrifying hallucinations and brews paranoia among the ranks. Narcotics were shockingly easy to come by, according to one soldier. <\/p>\n

Some are having it off worse than others, grabbing what they can and taking it to survive the tiring life in the trenches. One soldier who claimed his comrades were doing it out of "boredom" claimed the time-killing was worse than war itself.<\/p>\n

Roughly one in 10 soldiers were believed to smoke marijuana, while many others are taking a synthetic drug named alpha-PVP. The inhalation, which comes through a ballpoint pen and jar lid, is washed down with vodka.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

"They do drugs out of boredom," a soldier claimed, before adding: "War is when you're constantly waiting for something, occasionally praying for it all to be over.<\/p>\n

"When I was smoking salt in the dugout, I didn't give a f*** about a possible freakout [bout of paranoia]. The boredom's a lot worse." Another soldier likened time in the trenches on drugs as "like in Las Vegas."<\/p>\n

There is even a secret code among those in the trenches hoping to acquire "gunpowder", shorthand for amphetamine, as well as "pinecones", which for those in occupied Ukrainian dugouts, means marijuana, the Daily Mail reported.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Substances used by bored soldiers are delivered by unsuspecting messengers bringing equipment to the trenches. One man, Vadim, believes some soldiers are simply not "in their right mind". Deliveries of the drugs offers up a decent pay, with some bagging \u00a31,700 every month.<\/p>\n

A fellow soldier, an unnamed 27-year-old, was enlisted by Vadim to help him out. But the drugs runner still does not know how his newfound pal "got past the medical commission in the Moscow region."<\/p>\n

His friend was seen shaking excessively during an assignment, sweating away until he was later diagnosed as having an overdose. "Whether they go on the attack high \u2013 <\/span>f*** knows," was the reply given over whether Russians facing active combat were off their rockers. Even then, it seems Vadim knows how little they fight, with just two bullets fired since March.<\/p>\n
