Psychedelic Experiences

I had some pot brownies once and thought I was going to die. Tried to sleep and the walls kept closing in. Pretty sure they were laced with something given the source.
I've never done drugs, even pot. But one time in Cancun I bought a bottle of absinthe and it was the craziest experience of my life. I knew I was drunk, but everything was clear as day. Had no problem with motor function like when you are drunk but everything around me was way more interesting than it should have been.
I'm a fan of shrooms though I only have moderate experience. Had a cpl of what I thought were good experiences in the past but last week had the most transformative experience of my life. Felt like years worth of therapy. Totally a believer in how they're being used to treat PTSD, depression,
anxiety etc.
For me nature is the best location for it. My brother and I found this awesome lakefront campsite in between Grand Teton and Yellowstone.

Awesome man. Heard the results of studies with dudes suffering from PTSD and the results sound incredible, really life changing stuff (for the better).
For me personally it was just working through some stuff with my relationship with my folks. Parents divorced at a young age and even though I've always had a seemingly "good" relationship with my dad, there's always been this underlying resentment (he remarried and my mom remained single). In more recent years I've had a more rocky relationship with my mom.
Both relationships were examined during this experience and came out of it feeling 100% in a better place, it's indescribable.

That's an awesome view. I wouldn't need anything more than just being there probably having a few beers. It's like the best view I've ever seen but your's is way better.
Divorced parents is shit. It fuks you up. I don't think I got over it until a couple years ago. The only reason I think that is because I felt like I actually "loved" my parents and step dad and step mom. Bunch of shit talking and bad blood between them for years that stuck with me.
Nothing wrong with it. Not my thing but it's not hurting anyone or effecting me.
The presidential debates this year are going to be a psychedelic experience, just saying.....
We seem to have finally made peace with weed so it's time to move on to the real healers and game changers.
It saddens me when I see so many people with so much emotional trauma and baggage resort to mind numbing pharmaceuticals, or even costly, long winded and ineffective therapy sessions when really they could get so much more from a safe trip.
Really cool research is happening though. MAPS is currently in Phase 3 clinical trials of studying MDMA-assisted psychotherapy as a method of treating PTSD (the last stage before FDA approval).
I did mushrooms once in college. It took 5-6 hours to kick in. Then I did nothing but giggle on my way home. At the same party, some guy was doing LSD and was losing his mind in the living room, crawling under the coffee table. I told myself, that I would NEVER do LSD.
Sounds like some terrible mushrooms if it took that long lol. I'm a big believer in your physical setting, intention, you current mental state and who your company is.... those things shouldn't be taken lightly.
I had a friend (who unfortunately just passed from leukemia) that did her thesis at Penn on medicinal properties of mushrooms and the things that grow on them and then got a job and funding studying that for a major pharmaceutical company. I don’t know if it makes you feel better or not, but big pharma has been studying it for decades.
I'm fine with whoever is studying it since we're like 50 years late with this research! So much promise in the 60's only for it to get squashed.

My one and only shroom experience was one of the best experiences of my life. I've longed to recreate that event. Though, if I had it to do over again I would take Chris's advice and really step up the level of my surroundings. The last time we sequestered ourselves in an apartment with Goa playing. I will definitely do things differently next time.
Just as it seemed the world was beyond saving and total chaos was all but inevitable, a savior emerged!

2020 Was The Year of Psychedelics — Here's Why
While many 2020 memories will be gladly left behind, that's not necessarily the case for psychedelics. There was unprecedented renaissance as psychedelic compounds, and their potential to treat mental health conditions, became one of the centerpieces of this year’s public conversation.
