@aracid In the very last post I share my experience with a succubus if thats relevant here somehow There is also some alien stuff in the second part Leo would find interesting For now nothing has attached itself to me long term but some astral projection practitioners say that is possible. -- After psychedelics I feel like my neurotransmitters are fried and it takes me about a week to go back to normal. It gets my baseline mood down and also I get some whacky negative thoughts I feel of you were to purposeful mess with your neurotransmitters you could get something that resembles the state you were stuck in. Clinically depressed people that have neurotransmitter imbalances are stuck in such states and sometimes do an 180 when they get on meds or SSRIs. Maybe it was an entity on your end or may it was some brain imbalance that was fixed my some adaptogens or plants they gave you, who knows. Anyhow I'm glad you made it out! Keep is updated on your journey

What if him being that conscious is the very thing that actually doesn't allow it to work? What if you need a combination of lowish consciousness, low need for variety, conservative genetics , the ability to derive meaning from loyalty, commitment, devotion, family, serving another human being, a certain cultural background, certain survival challenges where marriage makes sense, leaning towards co-depedency, personalities that actually can make it work ( whether in healthy or very toxic ways) and a set of unquestioned beliefs about the innate importance of it all? Its like that fallacy where I believed at the very beginning that being high consciousness and developed would get me laid when actually it ended up being very counter productive

@Leo Gura have you gotten COVID?

It sounds like you need to work on grounding your spiritual insights, put your feet on the solid ground and work on developing some serious love for life. Also it seems you have developed unhealthy mental habits making you stuck in negative disempowering thought loops that side discourage you from taking action . That's the catch 22 of depression and dark night of the souls. They generate a very strong gravity towards sucking the meaning out of everything. Which is true but only from to a degree and from a certain perspective... but from the other side it looks like absolute Truth I'd recommend putting psychedelics on pause for a good year. For a tree to grow tall it needs to develop strong roots, and that seems to be failing you right now How does your day to day look like? Do you have too much time in your hands? Do you have any responsibilities? How do you spend your weeks?

London if you want amazing daygame and you can afford it. Budapest and Warsaw are budget options. What time of the year are you traveling?

No matter what city you live in, there is always Suzie from work

Cool to see lots of input for OP. I'm struggling with a similar issue and IDK if it's long COVID but here are the very essential basics that I haven't seen mentioned: You ABSOLUTELY must meet or exceed your daily calorie needs. It you chronically starve yourself or do lots of fasting it will absolutely cause chronic fatigue and low or inexistent libido. You absolutely need high quality animal fats in your diet. You absolutely need cholesterol, ideally from quality eggs or butter. Having enough quality saturated fats is important You absolutely need to get in enough quality sleep and enough vitamin D. You absolutely must watch your zinc intake. Personally, I take 50mg of zinc picolinate per day and there is a day and night difference for my libido if I don't take it. Specifically for me I already absorb very little zinc because of my heavy metal toxicity. Heavy weightlifting and intense cardio are essential as well but you don't want to burn yourself out of you have a physically demanding job Do not give up! I feel your pain and wish you enough strength to have enough requisite variety to solve this problem. Become an absolute expert in your condition. A solution is definitely there, just gotta find it. https://www.actualized.org/insights/requisite-variety-and-creative-laziness Pd: you can take care of your GFs sexual needs in many different ways. Read the book she comes first to master oral. There's lots of stuff you can do for her. Get creative if you care about her

If you're 17 still in school and inexperienced just start by casually starting an conversation with her to become acquaintances and get her number or IG. If you can bump into her in some activity you do together and get to know her that way that's better than a cold approach unless you think you can pull that off. Then suggest some activities after school, flirt and eventually hang out alone with her and see how far is she comfortable taking things. Most likely you'd need more than one single date to get intimate with her but I don't know the details so just start with taking with her, getting her contact and going on a date. Just be a normal human being and feel eachother out, no need to over-theorize this or micromanage "skipping phases"

From my experience asking questions is often not very effective for giving your clients results. Many times their thinking is so away from the path of the solutions they're looking for that I mostly do 25% asking questions 25% listening and 50% just lecturing and giving them the insights or context they're missing and would take them ages to reach by their own thinking even with me guiding their minds. You can ask the right questions as much as you want but sometimes people just will not have insightful answers. If you're an expert in what you do, ask questions to gather the raw answers they need to hear

I second water kefir, it helped my digestion for years after I stopped taking it. Bone broth is full of heavy metals though as lead mimics calcium and is stored in the bones, not many people are aware of this though

I would argue then the megalomaniacs described in the last post must have a degree of sociopathy or psychopathy or something along the lines. They must not have the capacity of empathy or seeing the world from other people's POV. Sometimes I consciously take advantage of other people in very small insignificant ways or tell small lies here and there and then these things stay on my consciousness for months and when I see the person in real life the stuff is consistently on my mind and I feel the urge to get if off my chest. So genuineness, transparency, honesty and authenticity are not even values of mine, they are personality traits baked into my psyche. These people must not have that and actually have the opposite hardware. I wouldn't say they have "made a choice" even. It almost couldn't be another way. Natural selection is testing out different survival strategies and it seems that not having that empathy is hyper effective if you're lucky enough to break through in society. It's not guaranteed to work. You may end in jail or beat up. So genetics play a big role imo but that's no real surprise. --- Coined a new term with chatgpt since there is no one term that defines the fenomenon in that blog post : Machiavellian Pragmatheism The strategic mode of operation where truth, morality, self-identity are fluid tools, shaped and discarded solely for the accumulation and consolidation of power and wealth. It combines Machiavellian cunning, extreme pragmatism, and the ability to believe or abandon any idea or person at will, based purely on strategic advantage. A Machiavellian Pragmatheist not only manipulates others but also self-deceives, controls narratives, and rewrites reality itself when necessary. Power is the end goal, reality is a game, people are pieces, and winning is the only principle.

Sorry to hear your health struggles, I hope everything is sorted out by now. Yeah, this goes both ways. Ignorant people use toxic chemicals and toxic chemicals breed ignorant people. I had this situation with my camper van where I carpeted the entire interior using some strong glue and It would give me breathing problems if I stayed the night. Aparently it was formaldehyde ( smells like the smell of " new " ) and prbably a bunch of other nasty things. It took about half a year to properly ventilate and stop giving off fumes... If you're sensistive to airborne particles and chemicals you can get lots of high qualiry hepa and carbon air purifiers. They surely wont harm. Who knows how efficient they actually are

@Davino I struggle to find earplugs that I can wear for more than a few hours without my ears hurting. Are these wearable for long hours? how much noise do they reduce? would you say they are good enough for clubbing?

I challenge you to notice and point out the imperfections in all the systems you see for a few days. For example , language is a system that's good enough to get the job done for collective survival of the species, but just look how much room for misinterpretation there is.

Hey, here’s the result of a conversation I had with AI about the nature of systems, something I’ve been observing for a while now. I wanted to share a few of these ideas as food for thought for y’all system thinkers out there. Sometimes, it’s not right to systematize everything. Sometimes, an imperfect system that gets the job done is good enough. Sometimes, you can get a system close to perfect, but don’t be surprised when it still requires maintenance, manual labor, or just doesn’t work under every condition. Here’s what came out of that conversation. Let me know if you liked it:

The stage blue equivalent is Devotion good stuff

give the mods tasers Now back to post modernism

Visual representation of telepathy , just apply it to consciousness Bashar explains channeling as two beings connecting on the same frequency, like tuning those old radios.

This fits so well here. Mods feel free to remove this and ask me to do a new thread if you feel this may derail it. Test your skills after all those documentaries https://www.geoguessr.com/ Free alternative https://openguessr.com/ Super fun to play with online friends What's your benchmark?

As a deeply intuitive guy, I resonate with this. I had a similar thing happening playing GeoGuessr. Guessing the place up to a few kms from a simple road or random bush. It could be intuition or precognition unless the game is designed to feed you close calls to hook you on it. (No matter where you click, afterwards it tells you you were close. How could you tell anyways?) I commonly experience stuff like guessing how many individual units there are in a bunch of things without counting, beating people in rock paper scissors 12 times in a row, guessing what time it is randomly when waking up or in the middle of the night, guessing people's names, professions, and Zodiac signs. One time I guessed all three from a single person, lol, left his jaw hanging. Little gut feeling warnings of caution in split-second situations. Thinking about someone I haven't seen in years or months and him calling me randomly a few hours later. I learned intuitively how to do astral projection by hearing some instructions for a few seconds, and I also had mystical experiences just starting meditation with no prior experience. It is super easy to get delusional and fall into self-deception in the realm of the paranormal and ESP. But on the other hand, don't let materialism hold you back. Contemplate the mechanics of existence for yourself from absolute scratch with the utmost epistemological rigor. I tried channeling a few times by writing on my laptop's keyboard with my eyes closed, and sometimes my fingers write the words almost before I can think them. It's feels like catching a stream of water while swimming in the ocean, or a warm current of air while sky gliding. Apparently, you can get into some sort of state of consciousness, call it trance or vibration or whatever, that facilitates or increases the likelihood of this happening. Bashar says it's getting in the gamma brain waves. So people who genetically are more prone to gamma waves would have increased and more accurate ESP experiences. Think about it. How are thoughts even possible? Do thoughts belong to you? Are they you? Where do they come from? Where are thoughts located? What are thoughts besides symbols? Thoughts are literally non-physical perception. They are a stream of intelligence (of different degrees) mixed with self-awareness and nothingness. Notice you don't have full control over them, only partial influence. Why do you have a specific thought rather than a different one? You can explain it with the brain and the subconscious mind, but they are just crutches. Sensory organs and the brain are another epistemological crutch. How is experience or perception possible because of a brain or sensory organs? In the end, they don't explain anything. Materialism breaks when you keep asking " but why?" Consciousness can imagine perception into existence without the need for any sensory organs or the brain. Point being, I resonate with this dude whether this is the game trying to hook you on it or actual ESP.

- Feel free to comment, ask questions, give unasked advice, use this post for resources, etc. ( all under your own risk and judgement ) Basically, the idea is that I'll be documenting and sharing my journey of chelation. I'm a noob for now, but I expect to gather a decent chunk of understanding throughout this year. This has been on my to do list for over a year now, and I've been motivated recently by Leo dropping the long awaited episode on chelation released for my birthday ?. Sadly, the episode is not as detailed as I'd like it to be and I'm afraid he may have forgotten some crucial information. But if there is time to whine, there is time to roll up my digital sleeves and get to work and research. Let's hope my journal doesn't end up being a Brian Bander's Suicide note 2.0 (RIP)

Gotta try this, I'll report how it goes

jesus, this guy's guitar skills are next level. Imagine if he could sing.

Props to you brother. Keep looking at people through this lens and you will soon become a wise man. Anything that seems like irrational or even self-destructive behavior ALWAYS serves some beneficial purpose although often subconscious or logically twisted.
