    My first lsd trip told me stop smoking. Another trip told me to stop smoking weed, too. My last trip told me to stop edibles.

    Learning to meditate now. Breathing is what it’s really about, yo

      There’s actually a Timothy Leary quote about this.

      “Once you get the message hang up the phone.”

        Great quote. Really feels like a journey that’s destined to end sometime in the near future.

      ahh it’s such a funny thing to be able to say “the drugs told me to stop doing drugs”.

      my first lsd trip told me to love myself more; quite literally too, i was just about to fall into ego death and i saw a second myself in the dark void of mind who faced me and said “love yourself more”. One hell of a first trip ngl

      goodness how much better the world would be if shakes fist the US government! didn’t stop psychedelics research, we could have proper psychedelics assisted therapy by now. An LSD trip on its own already feels like doing 6 months of normal therapy but in the span of 8 hours, and when you intentionally therapise yourself during it? Make that a year of therapy in 8 hours. Imagine what we could achieve if there was a trained professional there to assist you.

      Breathing exercises, gut health, sleep, diet, activity = freedom

      Lean into that meditation and breathing! It’s made my sleep issues all but go away

              I’ve tried, but eventually I pass out from withdrawals and end up using again while in out. Sleeping me refuses to kick the habit, so here we are.

                Check out Fatal Familial Insomnia. It’s just a cute little prion you can get that will let you never fall asleep again. Maybe that would help with the withdrawals?

                Side note: it has been determined that prions are not terrifying, actually. No, that is not the prion speaking, don’t be silly.
