Have you tried LSD?

@SW-User dont do it if you already have negative thoughts planted regarding it! That could be a nightmare

@WaryWitchWandering yes

@markansas I left the church at 18 but I have no bad feelings about the church and a lot of my family are still active members. It's just I read and got on the Internet a lot and reading about the history of the church made it pretty simple to see that though they mean well the church doesn't hold any spiritual authority over any other organizations. I'm a culturally Mormon and BYU is my team, but I'm not spiritually tied to the church and never could bare a testimony saying that its teachings were true.

@Lostpoet i left in my mid twenty's and became a atheist . religion has cause alot of problems around the world and at least the lds seems to cause very few of them.. i do miss it tho.

@markansas It is full of good people

@Ynotisay those hippies were likely on psychedelics too. Likely microdosing. There's a spiritual connection with others & when you have experience, you can literally feel what the other people in it are thinking & feeling. It's wild.
But I wouldn't say you only do it once. I'd say do it only when you're in a positive mindset & have questions you want answered. You can find yourself many times, not just once then that's it

@ChiefJustWalks They might have been. They "knew." But this was a while ago before microdosing was a thing. So they were either high or recognized someone who's mind was exploding. :)
And I hear what you're saying about frequency. For me, I see that more with shrooms although it's been quite a while for me. I felt a diminishing return after a few times. It was more 'play." Nothing wrong with that but it just wasn't for me.
The one I can say you do just once is Iboga which is delivered as ibogaine. It's derived from a root in Africa that's used in "coming of age" ceremonies. I have a friend who's pretty prominent in that world where it's used as method of (literally) curing addiction. I wasn't addicted but she offered me the experience and I took it. Went to Mexico for it. Ten hours on my back, with my brain cracked open, watching a movie that played on a loop in my head. SO much more powerful than acid. I can still remember that loop. Things that didn't make sense at the time actually ended up coming true in some weird ways. A one-timer but I'm really glad I did. Haven't taken a hallucinogen since. No need. :)

@WaryWitchWandering it seems normal to me but I guess you're right

@SW-User it’s normal to you because you don’t know anything different. It’s a good thing that being sober is normal to you

@WaryWitchWandering thx :)

@PinkNailPolish89 it’s different, and it’s very VERY quick. Lots of visuals, feels like you’re out of body and time… but somehow know your body is still there. Feels like layers are peeled back in front of your eyes and lots of moving fractals. It’s really indescribable. I loved it, but those days are past for a bit. I have children and don’t have time for it

@WaryWitchWandering so cool to hear about 😊 thanks for sharing

@PinkNailPolish89 highly recommend! Especially because it’s such a quick yet powerful lil trip

@GermanAf 😵 oh dear that sounds overwhelming

@PinkNailPolish89 sure sounds like it but in the moment it doesn't matter. I was there to see the band but instead I was lying in a corner just absorbing the vibe. It's not pretty to think about but the feeling in the moment is incredible.
But I don't think you're looking to melt your brain with endorphins so my experience is pretty useless lol
