I totally understand wanting to escape, but psychedelics are kind of like a risky shortcut. The experiences they bring can actually be reached naturally, like through meditation or even lucid dreaming. With lucid dreaming, you can explore your subconscious and control your dreams—no substances needed. And if you’re curious, melatonin can help with lucid dreaming too. It regulates your sleep cycle and can enhance REM sleep, which is where vivid dreams happen. When you take it in the right amount, it can help you become more aware of your dreams, making it easier to control them. So instead of turning to psychedelics, which can mess with your brain, why not dive into things like meditation or lucid dreaming? They offer the same kind of mind-expanding experiences, but they’re safer and something you can actually train yourself to do.
Psychedelics are like throwing fireworks around your brain. It's a shortcut but keep in mind the people who write it is life changing experience the same amount of people can't write it because it was life ending. Maybe if you want the shortcut do it with supervisor.
I wouldn't recommend because it is a shortcut. You have to understand and feel though.
Go to Thailand (Koh Phangan for example) and speak with the teenagers and young adults who shroom the first time. They really can't see the big picture. Nobody can see the big picture because there is no bigger picture. We are just recieving a ton of input by hearing, seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling and creating images. It is not more and not less. Some people believe in a god or some other things to hold on to something during this ride but in the end it is all an illusion that will end somewhere from birth to death and no one knows when and after that it is over. No god, no respawn, no nothing, just like the state of prebirth. It is what it is. I am not judging if it is good or bad to believe but it gives motivation. I believe too, I believe that my energy will be released after death and I will be part of the universe again. I won't feel, I won't hear, I won't see, I won't smell and I won't taste - just like prebirth. But I am here. I say believe, because I do not know and I can't know.
Why did you comment that on this post? I would really like to know.
Bro probly ate a handful and blasted off. Had a rough trip at first, then calmed down and the shrooms taught him that shrooms and tripping aren't the answer to life. So he travels from thread to thread spreading the insights, trying to enlighten his fellow brethren. I've met a few like him. Noble, although I think I have more to learn from the colored void myself.
That... or he's still stuck in the DARE dredge cast in the 80's. Lulz
