Mushrooms and Fear of intimacy.

After doing mushrooms I feel as if people are, at their core, hungry for power. This has destroyed my trust and now I am unable to form relationships with others. anyone else feel the same?

Nope. People are hungry for power, I don't see why this makes them any less trust worthy. I think you have some more pondering to do, some more insights to gain from your trip before you jump to the conclusion that you're unable to form relationships. What sort of power are you searching for? What kind of trust does it take for you to form a bond with someone?

I also think this quest for power stems from helplessness and pain which comes with love. So because of all this "love" relationships are always a game.
the reason i don't trust people is because when i go play power games, girls will be on my nuts, and when i don't they don't care about me at all. Hooking up with attractive strangers was fun at first, but after a while it's a very empty and energy draining life style.

A lot of relationships are lopsided somehow, one person want's intimacy, the other just wants sex. But if everyone is happy, at least in the short term, what's the problem? If you're in a serious relationship but you don't seriously care about your partners well being, well, that's just a shitty relationship that needs to end. There are plenty of relationships where both people know what they want, and can help each other, instead of use each other, to get what they want in life.
Sure, people get bored and cheat, but again that is not necessarily true. I'd venture to say many people are very relieved when the 'challenge' is over, and enjoy the security of a good relationship. But there is a drive in us to keep growing and evolving, we all seek change sometimes. And with that you should note, maybe not all relationships are meant to be forever.
Well, yea. The opposite of power is helplessness... So what? We wouldn't know what love and power was if we didn't know the opposite. Everything is a game, everything is real.

Then quit hooking up with strangers and start giving a fuck about something deeper.

classic! hahaha.
I don't mean to complain about my situation. I'm just wondering if they're are other people who feel the same way?

What's a people core? I've never seen one. People are a lot of different things all at once.
