    Using Psychedelics Wisely
    A veteran researcher explains how psychedelics can be used to give beneficial results

    by Myron Stolaroff

    (From: http://www.erowid.org/psychoactives/writings/stolaroff_using.shtml)

    I never heard this explanation of why "not dosing enough" is often more uncomfortable than going all out. It seems somewhat plausible. And maybe we'd be better off if we did explore the uncomfortable doses until they weren't so uncomfortable.

    I dose all over the map with psychedelics beyond threshold. While I do agree that it seems many don't take advantage or realize how powerful lower dosing can be, I don't think that by dosing heavy one necessarily transcends uncomfortable material.

    Wrestling with the limbo state of having a strong grasp of reality while also having signficant perceptual changes created by low dose psychedelics can lead to experiences every bit as profound and therapeutic as higher doses.

    low dosing-----> medicine
    high dosing-----> drug
    but there is a threshold in high dosing that only people who want to die cross.
    people who want to see what happens after death.
    i think those people are crazy in a good way. And a little bit depressed.
    Im one of those people but im so fuckin poor i cant afford to dose high.

    It's nice to see people reading from the elders CN. Stolaroff is a pretty smart dude, The Secret Chief is worth taking a gander at.
