Shouldn't you be off somewhere polishing your gun?

@soothfast saidwhat is so bad about your life that you need drugs to escape it?
I'd take a hit if I knew where to get it!
But I've had experience with magic mushrooms, since those I can grow. Someday I hope to grow them again.
@mott-the-hoople saidNot escape it, but to explore it more deeply than I could otherwise. It is a spiritual experience for me, and helps to break down entrenched patterns of thought and open my mind to new ideas.

It's just a tool in the kit, though. I meditate sober most days, and think a lot about the nature of reality and existence. I study mathematics for the same reason. I can understand why the Ancients used mind-altering substances in their search for meaning in the universe.

@mott-the-hoople saidDamn, you’re a moron!
so you want to be “drunk and sexed up” ?
damned what a slut
You do realise that women enjoy sex just as much as men, don’t you?
Well, not with you. Obviously. But in general.

@soothfast saidYou have to stay hydrated with MDMA, it's easy to lose a ton of water clubbing with it. Dehydration is the major reason for medical issues while on it.

@soothfast saidHahaha, exactly.

@suzianne saidI certainly wouldn't go clubbing with it, but that aside, it sounds like good advice.

There were times I got nauseated on weed, and near as I can tell the problem was that I wasn't staying hydrated enough.
@suzianne saidYeah, never tried it. From what I gather there are retreats in Latin America where one can experiment with it under guidance. Also I think a bout of nausea is pretty much par for the course when dosing ayahuasca. Maybe I wouldn't have so much of a problem, since shrooms never nauseated me. It's something else I'd like to try some day.
Have you heard of this?

What I've tried: Cannabis, psilocybin, mescaline (from San Pedro cactus).
What I'd like to try someday: MDMA, ayahuasca. Probably some other thing or two I'm forgetting.
Not sure about LSD.
@soothfast saidI've done all that except ayahuasca. From what I've read here, you might not like LSD, because I found it really hits you (well, me) like a highly chemical poison, if that makes sense. The visualization is intense, but they do call it 'fry' for a reason.

Yeah, this was all in my early party girl years of attempted self-medication through PTSD.
