physiological damage like reduced memory

I definitely notice that my short-term memory is limited at the moment but in the past I had a break for two years and it got much better. Not sure how irreversible the damages are.

Caffeine has no effect on me so I cannot speak on it.

If it's something you need to maintain your joy then it's a problem.

The more a thing makes you feel like that kiwi, the more of a problem it is.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much are you like that kiwi?

There's your answer.

Is there something you still need nowadays to maintain joy or have you overcome it completely?

You shouldn't need a chemical to make you happy with your day. If you do, that's obviously wrong.

What about the millions of people with psychological and neurological disorders, and the millions more, who are on the spectrum to it. 

To my understanding they should take chemicals to make their (and others) lifes easier. Not every chemical imbalance can be meditated, breath-worked or talked away. 

Speaking as a diagnosed ADHD person.

I often wonder if you will stop with actualized.org at some point because it might be required to get closer to Truth.

I don't know if you or open to talk about it but do you have any goals for the next few years or what are you up to at the moment? Maybe it is stuff that is so advanced that you can't talk with others about it.

Medication for a real disorder is different.

But keep in mind that a lot of disorders are fake and medication too can be abused.

I already did that over the last 2 years. I scaled back my work output a lot, as you saw -- because that's what my growth required.

1) You can feel it in your body just from the hangover effects. Psychedelics tax the body and you can feel it.

2) If you do a lot of psychedelics frequently, you will feel the toll and also the psychological addiction.

What exactly is the toll if you do a lot of psychedelics frequently? For sure you get hangover effects sometimes but that passes after a week or so. 

Is it like if you getting too often into God mode through psychedelics you just don't care about anything in sober life because you see everything as perfect already so you become lazy? Or what are exactly the tolls?

I have come to the conclusion that the only solid value social media provides is to actually connect with your friends and relatives.

Right now though, mostly it's endless scrolling, dopamine seeking and unconscious image cementing.

I really don't like the way social media is being handled. It could be so much better.

I feel you're having more fun lately. Wish you a happy life outside the Actulized.org happening. You deserve it!

How did trips scar your body?

[Nemra]

@Leo Gura, you said in one of your videos that psychedelics will be your most-used tool, as it's way more powerful than other methods.

Have you changed your mind based on the toll that it had on your body?

I did my first psychedelics 3 days ago, and I'm convinced that other methods, like meditation, are of little help for me. And also I have traveled in order to do it and won't be able to do it for a few months. How am I going to continue to have realizations if I limit myself to doing it sparingly?
