Why would I ask a psychologist when I can ask why YOU would do that? I've done pretty strong doses (200-300ug) outside in public and could entertain ridiculous ideas like taking off my clothes without actually doing it. and I do not even have exceptional self-control nor am I a genius. I am not saying I act sober, but I can certainly assess whether jumping off a balcony is a good idea and it never is. So I've never chalked it up to the substance. Every time I saw someone react weird to psychedelics it always seemed to be related to the personal issues that individual was resolving.

someone posted this video before on this forum so I'll just copy my reply here: "I think this is a good video. He is right to speak about these substances with great caution. Trips can definitely get scary, unpredictable, or even terrifying depending on the substance. I think it helps to have spiritual practices in place in order to be able to remain Calm and open. Another important point is to remember, that taking moderate to high doses are not necessary. You gotta be able to make the best of the worse case scenarios, to have that kind of hope is important. It's hard to say whether its right for you. You will have to take that risk. I do not know who you are and even if you told me, I don't know deeply who you are. A psychedelic experience can be a serious serious experience. Other times, I wonder why I was so afraid, lol. Granted I have not done Salvia, 5-meo, and all the various substances like 2-CB or LSA, or whatever. I am also careful about dosages and I only do high doses indoors. I would never dial 911, fuck that, I'd rather die. Much better idea to have a trip sitter or someone who you can call. ------------ If you are still interested in trying them, but extremely worried, you can try them in a setting with shamans. There's Ayahuasca retreats and places to go to have a 5-meo experience with experienced shamans." I have also experienced short-term depersonalization episodes a few times during my experimentation. I always felt it was a combination of personal issues + the substance; in addition they were medium doses, not high doses. It also worth noting that I do tend to vape marijuana at the end of my LSD trips. This could have impact that is different than people who do not mix it. Note of warning, I do not recommend mixing psychedelics with marijuana, it can drastically effect the trip and I am speaking from experience. With all that said. Tripping can be a good, elevating, mind opening time. ------------- Be mindful that psychedelics have vastly different effects between them. A trip on LSD is NOT the same as a DMT trip or a Salvia or on Agaric mushrooms.

Why would you jump off a balcony? Just because you can do anything does not mean you should actually do it.

I think it can be done.

Kanye West is just trying to break down walls. He may be more egoic than normal which will naturally come with the fame and numbers of followers he has, but it does not mean he has not experienced divinity and does not know that the purpose is to Love totally. Edit: I'd say he's mostly green with some yellow and orange.

the point of existence is to exist! To be.

who cares what they think

because relative is couched in absolute and vice versa.

Do both. Nothing wrong with liking submission and domination in the bedroom

People gotta eat. You think plants are not living beings too? This is stuff is way more complex than you are giving it credit.

I've given up on encouraging friends to trip or pursue spirituality or any of that. It creates tension and they will not share your perspective because everyone is unique. I would recommend respecting your friend's decision and just tripping by yourself. All you can do to 'change' your friends behaviors is to be a model of whatever behaviors you believe are 'right'. Otherwise, just move on if you think smoking cigs and drinking beers is wack. Only the individual can elevate themselves onto other pursuits. Let it be.

You will understand once you learn what Sufism is. Wiki on sufism - "variously defined as "Islamic mysticism",[2] "the inward dimension of Islam"[3][4] or "the phenomenon of mysticism within Islam",[5][6] is mysticism in Islam, "characterized ... [by particular] values, ritual practices, doctrines and institutions"[7] which began very early in Islamic history[5] and represents "the main manifestation and the most important and central crystallization of" mystical practice in Islam."

I feel like 3.5g of shrooms is close or equal to 250ug. When I did a high dose, I was extremely nervous to do it, and it ended up going really well. An hour after dosing, I wondered why I was anxious at all, I relaxed into it. It's better to believe that you will be okay, then that something may go wrong.

I've experimented with Psilocybin, LSD, (both multiple times) and N-N DMT (twice). I think Psilocybin and LSD are great first time substances, just do small doses. ie 1.5-2g of mushrooms and one regular dosed tab of LSD (~100ug). DMT is the scariest for me because it is super powerful and fast acting. I have also experienced short-term depersonalization episodes a few times during my experimentation. I always felt it was a combination of personal issues + the substance; in addition they were medium doses, not high doses. It also worth noting that I do tend to vape marijuana at the end of my LSD trips. This could have impact that is different than people who do not mix it.

There is nothing wrong with your fetish.

I feel like its pretty straight forward. If you get turned on by men's aesthetic look, their energy/masculinity, their genitals, and want to receive or give to a man, then it becomes pretty clear that you are at least Bisexual. You can easily test this by watching Gayporn or looking at naked images. Don't worry about judgments, How do you feel? that's what matters. That chick was just being a jerk, many women experience that same thing but from guys. Overall though, have sex with people that you trust to be vulnerable with and care about your needs.

I've never tried reiki, so I am biased, but why not get a massage?

exercise, travel, do art (painting, music, writing, poetry), read books, and see family and friends.

Try re-taking it? Review notes? Have you read the recommended books? You gotta create your Life Purpose and it's not gonna be easy at times. Sometimes it may involve working at a job you don't love or going to school in order to build capital and finance your freedom. You're only 20 too, spend these next 5 years building yourself in the area you want to go into. Follow your gut, if you find that your life purpose is changing, there is a deeper calling, then follow that!. The best thing you can do is build that inner compass for yourself. No one can tell you what you truly want deep inside. You gotta build that connection and overtime it becomes clear.

The meaning is to Be it. It's to be conscious through all of it.

You are the egg, because the egg is in your consciousness experience. you feeling the egg is the same as feeling your hand. It's all sensations, content within one consciousness.

I would strongly disagree with Christian perspective on psychedelics. Most Christians lack the depth of knowledge required to understand psychedelics history and mechanism. Then on top of that they lack the experience and judge it by fear. The only evil you will see on psychedelics is what is within yourself. Psychedelics are the only reasons why I even believe in God, got interested in meditation, and pursued religious studies. Why would enlightened individuals lie about enlightenment? You would look straight at Sadhguru, Osho, and Ram Dass in the eyes and say they are lying? I think Karl Renz is pointing that from the ego perspective, one doesn't want enlightenment because it involved dropping your selfishness and self-importance.

A lot better and informative people to listen to on psychedelics. I like JP, but he's out of his league when it comes to psychedelics. There's a lot more to it than his one experience on mushrooms and his interpretation of the few studies we have on it. If anything read the material by the scientists actually conducting the studies or individuals who have multiple experiences Roland Griffith, James Fadiman, Rick Doblin, Stanislav Grof, Richard Louis Millar, Terence Mckenna, Joe Rogan, Timothy Leary. Literally so many more individuals who are more knowledgable than JP on this subject.

Do you know if he has done it more than once? and why did he stop? I do think its interesting that the truth he felt faded, but then it must've not been really Truth? The morality practices for me stem from the realization that everything is ultimately You or deeply interconnected with yourself. As a result, it makes little sense from a high conscious standpoint to hurt others because essentially you are hurting yourself. In addition, causing hateful acts, does not fill oneself with authentic deep Love, it is more of a selfish dark-toned love. I still have not unseen this truth and if I lose the truth touch with it, it is because my ego is strong and my mind is making distinctions and valuing the distinctions too. I also know when I am heading in the right direction because you will feel yourself elevate in terms of consciousness, sensitivity, being, and a sense of lightness will grow upon you.
