how long do you think you'll be interested in psychedelics? will there be a point where you think you've learned all you can from them, and then just stop? or will you keep doing them, but maybe less frequently? or do you think you'll be using them a lot until you die? personally, i don't know. i'm nowhere near finished though, i've hardly even begun.
until the negative side effects, impacts on my life outweigh the positive ones, so ideally never. this philosophy is why I ended up giving up robotriping.
i cant find an honest answer to this. for years ive been thinking "ill stop after a few good trips, and after experiencing a vast range of psychedelics." Ive accomplished that, when i do psychedelics now... im already aware of what ill be feeling, what "realizations" will come, so now i pretty much link my trips with older ones... feelings of unity, feelings of fear (which i practically never have anymore). But ive been thinking about this alot in the past few days and my answer is "i dont know"... i always love the weird and mystery and unknown and complete fuck i get when an hour has passed since i ate the last cap, or since i sipped the last drop, or toked the last hit.... its a place i like to be... hek its the place i like to be
I have pretty much given them up. I havent taken lsd in over a year, and I havent taken mushrooms in about 2 years. But then again, we had a baby not long ago, and I am currently broke, and my friends are still in that stage of doing whatever they want without responsibilities, so I dont tend to see them too much anymore. But this isn't to say that I will never take them again, I am just done experimenting wiht different psychedellic substances. I haven't really learned anything from them in a while, The more I took them, the less creative I was becoming, less sociable, and it was getting very close to the point of just taking them for the laughs. Although my trips are some of my fondest memories, I talk about them almost dailay lol but when I remember certain times in my life where I was dosing all the time and messing with other harder drugs, I get the butterflies just thinking about how careless and immature I used to be. So in conclusion, I am done for now, (Save for DMT because we still haven't been properly accauinted yet ) But I can deffinitley see myself on mushrooms or L again in the future, maybe when my baby grows enough to not need constant attention and care, maybe at a fest or with friends on a summer night. P.S. I also took a LOT of trips, and I started to lose my sanity very quickly, fuck I'm still brain damaged lol I am definitley done with ex, ket, rc's, molly, that kind of shit. I would only really consider the basics from now on. And, VERY good idea for a thread Prismatism, Nice job
After about 30 shroom trips I can say I'll never eat another psychedelic mushroom. I am nowhere near done with LSd and i've only just begun with Mescaline. Can't wait to try DMT
I'm in the same boat as stebo32. I know what realizations I will come to. But I still love the feeling of being there. But I always said I would stop once I stopped learning. And it always comes down to one last trip. Even though I pretty much know where it will take me. I guess for me, at this point, it's about getting there...if that makes sense. But I have been dealing with this question for about a year. And I still can only say I don't know. I wish I could just live with everything I've learned. That would be sweet. But part of me thinks that it's impossible. Part of me thinks that the whole psychedelic experience is fake; it's over when it's over. Although we have true realizations, our inability to hold on to them and live by them constantly in the real world make them fake. But maybe it's just me. I'll tell you after the next trip...
I really don't know how to answer this ... I like to tell myself ... As soon as I learned all I can from these drugs, I'll be done ... Because I would feel like I was abusing them if I wasn't using them to 'learn'. At the same time ... I freakin' looove them. I don't ever want to stop.
Well I'm atleast taking some time off. School starts today in a few hours. The lsd around here has been getting bad because of all the busts. Plus, it's growing in price. I've seen a lot, but I know there's more to see. I have developed a small case of social anxiety since I first started tripping when I was 16, so I don't want it to get out of hand.
Psychedelics, to me, are a form of meditation. With meditation, the way I understand it, there is no goal or endpoint. The practice is the goal. I have learned a lot from them, but at the same time I've learned nothing. And I intend to keep it that way. Plus, mycology is fucking fun.
Well i need to be psychic to answer this question what future brings. My mindset is something else and for now I believe it stops one day. Anyway once you opened the door it's easy life is showing you the signs and teaching you all the time. I personaly love psychedelics and for now I see myself having a drop of lsd together with my grandchildren
I've known since before I started doing drugs that all drug use is immature. Yes I said it, immature. The same exact state of mind can be acheived through careful meditation and inner exploration over a longer period of time. However, some people, including myself, would rather harm their bodies a little if it means that they'll experience a lot of temporary happiness and the chance of experiencing lifechanging thoughts. I know I have realized thought while on psychedelic that would have taken a lot longer to realize otherwise, or even worse would have laid undiscovered in the farthest reaches of my mind. Eventually when my personality flaws have all been ironed out until, I am in the point in life where I want to be, and when I know that life couldn't possibly couldn't be any better for me, I will take one mammoth trip and will most probably encounter enlightenment, from which point onward life will be a dream and time will pass as a river. At this point in time I feel very happy every moment of my day and this can only get better. The future is unbelievably bright
It is simple - I don't know. I am living every second of this life and don't know for sure what will happen tomorrow, not mentioning 10-20 years. But, the way I am feeling now is like LSD SAP said, I can see me taking a few drops with my grandchildren!
Ah yeah it'll be great to be tripping with grandkids, I hope mine are raised to be good people. Even aside from drugs, just being a grandparent will be great I think. To think that all those people only exist because of you and your love... I hope my offspring will be intelligent like my dad and his dad (and probably so on down the line)
i smoke weed everyday and would like to think ill be doing it while im a old grandpa and enjoying just as much as i do now at the age of 22...Marijuana is a psychedelic right? but its weird cuz i dont like shrooms that much,
