I cant justify psychedelics at this stage of my development. Given the right safe conditions, I might trip again. It would be risky. However, I certainly believe psychedelics, when your brain is just developing, will change your future thinking forever. It may not necessarily be for the better. Psychedelics are to be respected or you will pay a high price. they bring you places you are not ready to go.

Meditation is better.

The last time I took LSD, age 21,I took other drugs and slept for three days because I knew the trajectory of the trip was heading in a direction I did not want to go.

I concur Mo. It was one thing to trip your brains out at 20. Quite another at 50.

Although I am sure there is such a thing as bad acid a bad trip is not caused by the chemicals, it's caused by the brain and the amplification of emotions. The weight of life at 50 is much different than at 20.

I'm glad that there are no shrooms around. I would be sorely tempted! Acid on the other hand......no thanks. I've already done my share. peace

I remember reading about this a while back.

It sounds pretty interesting.

My only experience with psychedelics was acid, but I plan on trying shrooms in the near future. Gotta wait for summer.

I also want to try mescaline(peyote).

Shrooms are everything that's good about zel without the hard edge that the speed gives you. There used to be zel that was clean and shroom like but I doubt that is still true.

Funny, I stumbled on a half ounce of hydro shrooms just yesterday !

Planning on doing them this week end, they're super fun !

There are some tightly controlled trials going on currently for the use of Ecstasy to cure PTSD. The euphoria from the drug makes it a lot easier for the patients to revisit the traumatic memories and deal with them with the aid of a therapist. grin
