No. Those words are meaningless and one dimensional. Expand your thinking good sir. Maybe try some psilocybin. :tongue2:





Then the entire thread is irrelevant because of a lack of contradictory thinking.

I think it depends on what you define as escapism. I would say for me psychedelics encourage escapism. It is recreation, a fun way to escape the boring grind of daily life. On the other hand, you could say that work, school and all the things people do regularly are the real escape. In this sense psychedelics discourage escapism for me. They help me think more about the world around me and the nature of life and death, etc.

In other words, what are you escaping?

All people I have personally known who used psychedelics for escapism have had their ass handed back to them so hard by psychedelics at somepoint or other that they quit using entirely or got a lot more serious.

Psychedelics generally discourage escapism as they tend to shove your issues in your face.
