If drugs are poison you would have had an easy time quitting smoking. Truth it it was a big struggle for you and you think that way for all your changes, or rather, the inability to change habits based on your will power and without the big struggle.

Nicotine is the only was to release dopamine? Can it be done without a drug?

The lazy others who want an easy ride. If you need a drug to release what is already in you it would only take one trip. Why all the repetition? Laziness? Fear? Why the f-ck do you need to poison yourself to release something that you just tuck right back in when coming down?



Look at me! I'm weak. You should be weak like me. I freed myself then tucked it all back in again for the next trip because I'm too weak to do it on my own.

Opinions are like azzholes. Everybodies got one. Thanks for sharing yours with us.

I'm pretty sure those war vets who've suffered seeing the worst that humans can hand out to each other just need to hear you tell them they're weak and should just get over it.

So you want to ride on the horrors of war as a means for you to get mushrooms from a dispensary so you can get high instead of a low dose to help you sleep through memories of horror?

Well that's not very selfish is it?

If dispensaries offered a choice between THC-A an amazing antiinflammatory but won't get you high and THC which gets you blitzed but has minimal THC-A, which would sell better?

Dispensaries are a f-cking joke.

hmmm, I wonder how many of the mentally ill people, who will be treated with psychedelic drugs, are ill
from taking psychedelic drugs.

I imagine there are some old hippies who never did actually come out of their stupor from years and years
ago, and still think they can fly. lol

well, good luck with that.

You've summed up Cliffy quite nicely.

I'd read that one of the biggest reasons that psychodelics were not checked out in depth was because of the hippy movement.

I'd also read that one of the biggest reasons that the seeking of alternative state of reality is frowned on was because it was believed that that level of awareness was only meant to come from seeking sprititual enlightenment through god.

Anti-depressants suppress the brain and slow it down while psychodelics offer the brain the opportunity to learn and to visit consciousness that is usually blocked by our ego's. Without the protection of the ego, the person is able to view past hurts, bad experiences and past humiliations without the ego stepping in to protect itself.

Fantastic news for those who are tired of being suppressed and feeling nothing. Unlike anti depressants that require a certain level of drugs in the system for prolonged period of time, these psychodelics positive effects on the brain last for upto 4 weeks after initial use.

You can get mushrooms from your local dispensary. Kind of cool really.

I had LSD on four occasions in the last two months, I enjoyed it greatly. Very pleasent, very relaxing and I still feel kind of new. I did have some difficulty getting out of the sawdust box one night.

There was a hippy movement in 1954 when Dr Osborne experimented in treating alcoholism with LSD at the Souris Valley Mental Health Hospital in Weyburn SK?

Far out man.

I think a lot of things can be fixed just by adjusting what we eat in the way of food. But then again, with asshat corporations like General Foods, Mondelez (Kraft), Nestle, Monsanto, etc. dictating our veggie seeds, foodstuffs, and what our foodstuffs actually are made from, just about everyone on the planet is taking drugs of some sort (hormones, pesticides, fungicides, antibiotics, etc) whether it was intentionally put into foods or just an incidental occurence from wind or rain. You can minimize your intake of them but I'd bet you can't completely avoid them.

Only year they had a line-up at the 'in' door and no patient came back for 'seconds'.

How do they dictate what you eat? I agree diet is huge factor but nobody is dictating anything. You are free to eat organic low in nutrition foods all you want.

There were plenty of success stories but just as many failures. There is a really good documentary on LSD treatments in Weyburn. Look it up.

You are free to eat all the GMOs you want meaning you won't be posting here as long as you thought. It kills livestock. Just read about the nations banning it for exactly that reason, and under tremendous pressure by the money not to do so, even threats.
