Mushrooms messed me up.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

you cannot choose whether or not you walk that road my friend, you can however choose how you walk it....

it is much easier to deal with and accept if you just go with the flow of it and trust in yourself/higher power...this is you breaking out of your shell, all you can do is embrace the process of growth and know that you'll be stronger and better because of it...

do not take medication or let some asshole doctor tell you youre crazy

educate and empower yourself.

 

mmmmmmmmmmm

 

it just seems like they can make anything into a disorder..
bipolar disorder? or is it just really happy or really sad, two common emotions.
ADD/ADHD? maybe some people are just hyper.
restless leg "syndrome"
the list goes on and on

i'm not saying these things aren't true at all, i just think they are over-diagnosed. everyone had some kind of "disorder." but maybe we're all just different (in some ways. we are the same in others)

taking medications to alter your brain chemistry seems just as risky as taking a psychedelic. they both bind to receptors in your brain cells and change some action there. but you take meds everyday. maybe tripping once a month isn't SO bad. but if it made you feel this way, by all means, do not do it anymore. things will get better with time

 

if you look into all the kickback doctors make from drug companies, and all the bullshit that goes on around it, it's a fuckin' racket man.

it's all about the $$$$$$.

 

If you are unhappy with the doc you are seeing, then go see a different doc and get a different opinion. No one on this forum knows exactly what you are going through. Maybe you do need to be taking meds and I would ask you to remember you are getting advice from a public forum. They do not need to wake up and step into your shoes everyday.

Before you do anything drastic, talk to a different doc and see if they feel differently about the situation.

 

Remember, you create the world you live in, if you are sick, you have to expand your conciousness, the power of the human brain is overwhelming. literally when i am sick, i can make my self better. Like if you are sick, and u act sick, and u think your sick, and you act sick mentally, your going to be sick for a long time. When your sick and u tell ur self your not sick, you literally get over it in a day or to, its all about mental state of mind. You define the world you live in, now each person is differnt, and everyone has different mindsets, different ways they where raised, as well as differnet beliefes. But we are all human. Control your mind. Take yourself to a place in your mind a feild full of flowers, and each flower is a thought, pick a flower and look at it. As you observe it you notice there are many peddles on that flower, you remove one peddle, each peddle is a different perspective a different way to look at things, the more you remove the more you change your perspective on it in till you remove all of them and they are just the basic thought, now look into your hand and you see a handful of you peddles in your hand. Take your thoughts and do that to them, if you think your going crazy, and you think your insain, you very well are going to be. If you think your okay, and you take control of your mind, then you are okay. Pretty much is going on is you have diagnoised yourself with this, it has nothing to do with anyone eles but yourself. You create it, you destroy it. take control of your mind my friend.

 

While i very much agree with the above post, very wise. I also have to say that it is not always the case that you can control your mind like that. sometimes if you have done too many drugs it really can fuck you up, and you won't be able to think right and see shit thats not real. But sometimes people like that who are fucked up can change back to be sane again if they use this technique. Its all about control.

 

lol you sound like me after i had weed-anxiety once. yes, it does go away.. you might have to wait it out, though. but it shouldn't take more than a month. i too regretted it.
so i DEFINITELY know where youre coming from i hope that helps. and i think a lot of us have been through regrets for taking certain drugs. i know a story of a guy who had it a lot worse than you after taking mushrooms...
also, consider this: regret makes things SO much worse. it makes you even more depressed, and your mind more susceptible to the negative things you're experiencing (hallucinations, etc.. ). maybe try looking at your life as a unified whole, rather than a linear progression; look at it as a solid block, and each cube fits into place. without one cube to make the big one, the entire block cannot be formed. :cheers2:

 

TAKE HIS ADVICE..

and just remember: docs don't feel sorry for you. You're just an object to them.

 

psychiatry is one big dollar sign.

 

what you needa do is first off stop smoking weed if you do. second off you NEEEEEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! to exercise even if your lazy or out of shape exercise bring you to reality. so if you wanna heal your mind you must exercise no execptions. next off I don't know you or know if you have trustworthy friends but you need good friends you can talk to, people who have good intentions deep in their heart. now as others said you need to learn how to meditate but with your thoughts as invasive as they are you might not know how to meditate. so how do you learn how to meditate huh? EXERCISE!!!!!!!!!!!! it will calm your racing thoughts. so go for a run and while you run forget all thoughts and just relax.

 

according to psychiatry, I:

1. have a mild form of social anxiety
2. suffer sometimes from LSA's (limited syndrome panic attacks, because I sometimes feel my heart beating)
3. panic disorder (i've had one panic attack, so that qualifies me for some kind of disorder, i believe)

And.. over and above all of this, i am a very happy, functional person =)

 

Don't use mushrooms. Plain and simple. Try smoking an indica strain of marijuana at least twice a week to relax you and let your mind open. If you use sativa, don't use it as often, as it's more of a buzz high, which might worsen the problem. What you need to do basically is relax.

 

Yeah. People who take psyches are so bored with not being messed up that they need some kind of spark to make things fun. People who are not in control of their thoughts have gone too far with psyches and should not do them until they are like the people i mentioned before.

 

Good thread. All good advice. Reiterating for myself. Thanks.

 

LOL there's this weird blonde lady on youtube whose done DMT and claims that our world is really a dream and that eveyrthing in the world started with a dream...

 

maybe the world is her dream, you never know man!

 

LOL well, this lady also thinks she is an elf, i believe.

 

Here's a man who speaks it true, hope the OP found relief in those words. About to print that out and read it to my friend since that what he's doing to himself at the moment over so-called bad psychedelic experiences.
