    Ego death is a hell of a thing.

    Legalize Psilocybin and other hallucinogens.

      With all the promising studies, I’ve really wanted to give it a go but I grew up sheltered and have zero clue where to start or get it. Not to mention the trust issues after that. I’m really hoping they legalize it.

        It’s super easy to grow, decriminalized in a number of US areas already, and I highly suggest you look into it. Uncle Ben’s shelf stable precooked rice is a great, nearly-foolproof way to give it a go (~$1/bag = ¼lb of mushrooms or more).

        edit: I should also mention that, from my own experience alone, microdosing has made my PTSD far more manageable on the daily, and I encourage everyone to find what helps them heal.

          You sent me down a rabbit hole. Don’t even know what strain I’d start with but the process itself looks fascinating.

              That went right to the top of my list. Thanks for the suggestion.

            Forgive me for assuming you’re in the US, but that’s the only way I can help. Uncle Ben’s is solid starting advice. Also, lookup sporeworks and sporetraders. Have fun, it’s really worth it.

        I’m gonna add a thing here about psychedelics being amazing and at the same time horrifying. Don’t go looking for them thinking ego death will be anything less than death itself. Even though you come back, the you that goes in doesn’t really come back out. There’s also lower doses where the worst case scenario is still a bad trip and potentially months of ptsd.

        Still the most positively life-changing experience you could ever have on earth IMO, but not necessarily a fun one, at least not always. Now go, meet the light entities… Hopefully with a trip sitter.

          What makes a good trip sitter? Would my equally oblivious-wife do? I know I can google it but I appreciated your perspective and sentiment.

            Ideally, your trip sitter or as I like to call them spirit guides, should also be on the drug however at lower dose. Nothing is more awkward than wanting to tell someone excitedly about what is going on and they are sober.

            It also helps if they have gone on trips before and knows what to expect. When you hit a psychedelic wave/happy little accidents, you really want someone who is cool, calm, and collected to help you navigate the wave/happy little accidents.

            Finally, who ever is guiding you, needs to be 100% aware of what is happening.

        Depends on where you live. You can get them online in Canada.
