Have you ever tried ayahuasca?

If so. What was your experience on it? Would you recommend it?
I have a bag of ingredients to make the brew, so I'm going to be trying it at some point soon. I'm just waiting for the right time and place.

I would not recommend it if you have no experience with psychedelics or have a history of mental illness in your family. I did LSD when I was 19, and it fucked me up. Bad. Never did DMT, though. Just know what kind of experience you're getting into. It's serious shit. Make sure you're in a very, very comfortable place where you feel entirely safe. If you take it around anyone, take it around people you trust implicitly. Environment is paramount with hallucinogens.

@SuicideScout: Heh. Good question. I feel like a more knowledgeable person, now. I feel as though the shock and trauma were actually the doors to my subconscious being unlocked and throwing a bunch of my repressed issues right in my face. My fear of the Judaeo-Christian God existing and me being sent to Hell, as I had been taught. Repressing my perceptions on my friend's perceptions of me. My repressed fear of the unknown supernatural.

There are still a lot of unknowns. I don't know if I would have been worse off had I not taken the LSD. I likely would have continued to deaden my senses through the use of drugs. But, at the same time, that might have connected me to others.

You know. It's just too much extrapolation. I just don't know. I won't say that my life became better after the LSD, because the total mental breakdown was excessively painful and filled with transcendental fear. And it nearly killed me. And sometimes too much truth is too much.

Yeah. I think if I could go back, I would not take it. As they say, ignorance is bliss.

Yeah I get that. Personally I'm glad of the experience feel like I'm better for it, as troubling as it was at the time. anyways. Thanks for the chat, you're an interesting dude

I had an Ayauashka experience. Are you using South American or Australian flora the brew?. I did this out in nature at my SHTF hideaway. Make sure you bring spare undies for the journey as your body loses total control while "out". I can't remember a lot of the trip as time goes on. It's like not remembering being born the older you get if that makes sense. But my last Ayauashka trip was a volatile experience as I was going through some spiritual turmoil at the time.

This would describe my trip

It's an Ecuadorean mix apparently hacruna + Chaliponga + Banisteriopsis Caapi. 50 grams.

My plan is to wait for the weather to get a little better and go to the woods with a few friends (we know these woods well, we grew up playing in them)

I've heard about the nasty throwing up and what not. I'll be well prepared. I just want to have the experience and hopefully come out of it a better person.

It's a bit like recalling a dream then is it I guess?

My mind is too fragile for hallucinogens

Yeah it's not for everyone. I feel good enough in my self to try it now though.
