it seems a lot of people who trip a few times become vegetarian. a few of my friends and i have as well as a bunch of random hippie/acid users i meet. i became one after the bone-chilling time i ate a cheesesteak while tripping and heard the cows screaming in pain in the background. anyway, does anyone else have experience with this? also if you are a vegetarian, how much does meat-eating bother you? for me it comes in waves of acceptance and then anger at how such an injustice is such an institution.
I'm a psychedelic user and a vegan. personally i became vegetarian a few years before i took LSD. i think that people who take LSD generally have a more open mind than those who would never consider using LSD. i also think people who are vegetarian generally have a more open mind than those who would never consider becoming vegetarian. to answer your question, meat eating does not bother me as much as it does disappoint me. the livestock and slaughterhouse industry is what really angers me.
I learned how to eat well while on LSD because it made my whole body so sensitive to everything. I am grateful.
I dont like eating meat while on LSD, I like to eat fruit, nuts, vegetables, drink juice, etc. But I like to drink milk and eat yoghurt too. And egg sometimes. just not carcass I can really appreciate some bacon once I am back in my usual self.
hey bill, I'm curious is the meat better in Aus? Because over here....it's tortured, pumped full of terrible substances, etc... I could never eat the crap they sell here..it's revolting. I'm really curious how this works in other countries.
IT depends if your mother tries her best to fill the family fridge with free-range, ethically priveleged, highly expensive meats. But I think the slaughterhouses here are just as bad as anywhere else. We have a huge meat industry. two thirds of macdonalds around the world get beef from Australia. I dont think those cows get treated well. I just wish they would lobotomise these poor animals. Except, I think the animal's legs save a lot of energy that would be required to move them through the abattoir. so i doubt it will happen. But if people want to make ethical, morally sound meat, I think this can be acheived by shutting down the animal's brain/mind. But some believe the animals soul is in its whole body, so this would not suffice
I don't eat on acid either, I'm just saying while in meditation I learned about my insides, what my body wants, what it likes, what it does not like... Someone seriously threw a lime at me one time I was on acid, I can still to this day not figure it out, but I carried it with me all day just smelling it. God I loved that lime Before acid, I was a very unhealthy person. I am so grateful to have learned what I did, and do.
LSD heightens all senses including taste. you should try it if only to feel the full spectrum of LSD's effects. the first time i ate on LSD i had a few lightly salted pita chips. i could individually pick out and name all ingredients/spices. then i looked on the package and i correctly identified them all. the taste was so wonderful. it was not about eating as i was not hungry at all, it was just about exploring taste. since then i have eaten a few time on LSD and i really enjoy it. its a novelty.
I know what you mean. Before I became so sensitively attuned, I never thought about what I ate. Now if I eat something I know I shouldn't (I can't always be picky though since I don't buy food), it makes me feel horrible and tears my stomach up. Like my body has to purge it. Even mentally it makes me feel bad. I feel so low and tired, and I get irritable. weird.
wow that's crazy. I've never even thought about eating while tripping. When I trip it's like all biological functions are at a standstill (except for breathing of course).
yeah man, this is good. I can't even eat sugar anymore, and have no desire for it, either. I love being healthy I feel better than I ever have. mmmm...I can't wait to dose again...
I like eating healthy too, but at the same time it's inconvienent for me. I still live at home and money has been tight, so I kinda eat what I have to just to get by ya know? Unless you wanna share some secrets on some grub that is good for the soul...
ya im with willy on this - food on acid can be brilliant, but not for any 'hunger' reasons, only 'sensation' reasons. Flavour is mostly scent scent is a trully mysterious sensation but it seems to make more sense on acid but most foods do not have the right texture to eat more than a mouthful or so
I was once able to smell the pollution in the air where I used to live it made me so sick I vomited. Felt great.
I've gotten about 5 hours of sleep in the past 2 or 3 days I can't even remember. I went to start a thread in the health forum, but I can't do it. I am so scatterbrained right now. Jeez, here I am talking about Health and wellness and I can't even get a good night/days sleep. :X
