Hey bro, its not that big of a deal, society puts to much a stigma on mental illness. I have it in the form of anxiety, and went to see the doc the other day and he thinks I need to go on lexapro, now I was having the symptoms I told him, but I was really wanting adderal, which I found from someone that same night and took 25 mg extended release 3 pills through the night, now this shit was nothing as expected, I fell asleep an hour after I took it, but I couldn't get out of bed, and now the last couple days since I took it I have been feeling good! Not speeding just able to get out of bed and do some shit! Also vsm were I went to the psych ward, it was like a vacation from life almost! I did not have to do ANYTHING I didn't want to I could sleep all the time, if wanted, but most people in there it was because of drugs. And they def, give you them, fuck they gave me some shit called haldal, and it knocked my dick in the dirt, I slept forever and when I got up I couldn't hardly walk for hours!

Firstly, I want to thank all those who've contributed positive follow-ups to the OP. Those words helped more'n you guys will know.
and I feel this topic is still relevant... It brought me to this site.
Having tremendous feelings of GUILT will not offer a decent trip. Many times depression stems from shame.
I'd done something I wasn't too proud of, my second-to-last shroom frolic, and my mind turned against me. "Reality" then was helping me understand that it was indeed OK to let go because I was an ism - nothing to be missed. A gentle nod, it was. If there were a gun in the hand at that moment... Yeah.
As a consistently depressed and sporadic suicidal, I can say that after the trip I'd of 3 days ago was riveting fun! ...for an hour. Then I died inside after attempting to shower all the inner and outer filth from my being. A friend comforted me, and I dunno where I'd be without him.
Like someone said, "it's a gamble." I'm sure we can get a sort of grasp of our headspace before throwing back the fungi. My gamble showed to me all my dysfunctions, unacceptable vices & lifestyle decisions so clearly... Still dunno how to overcome my issues, but it's a start.
To anyone else reading(outside the forum, wherever)... Please do not eat these alone, if you are determined to do this. Find schtuff to distract you in advance, maybe, too? Stay with us!

I have had trips that I was planning on taking solely to end it all, I wound up getting too lost in the fractals and euphoria that suicide was out of the question. I've had good trips turn south too, the only reason I am sitting here typing this right now is because I did not cut deep enough, I passed out thinking that was it, it was over, only to wake up the next day with a swollen wrist and a bad head-ache. (which I think was for the best?). Honestly I think when I am ready to die (should it be personal choice, age, or whatever else) I want to take a thumbprint of acid, that'd be the way to leave this life, with a bang!

You could die tomorrow, better take that thumbprint and get the bang now.

True, and it's sad to think about it, but you're right. Oh well, I'll make the best out of it while I last.

HEY, what's up? I HAVE REALLY BEEN WORRIED, no shit! I have often wondered what happened to you, and you are still with us,(hoorah)!
To be honest I wasn't so sure, and really have thought about you, as I am newer to these chat sites, I find it strange the amount of friendship you can develop, with out as much as ever seeing anyone's pic. Just words on a screen! I am so glad you are ok! I hope the depression has lowered, as it sounds, I am so glad ur alive, maybe I helped you some, I hope, but really all that matters to me is you are with us!
I am glad you resurrected this thread, to let us know you are alive! Well I am glad you are still alive and ok, your friend, cc1

I've had my fair share of depression/suicidal thoughts, just like any lonely young adult. I've taken acid, shrooms, 2c-p during these times, and during the trips I never thought about it. I've always had a firm enough grasp on "reality" that any negative thought I had I knew how to stray away from it. Besides, I've always been that kind of "emo" kid that is too pussy to even inflict self harm. Theres no way I could kill myself let alone hurt myself.
Others may not have that same kind of strength. Maybe suicide is more of an issue for others. I just tend to have occasional thoughts, the feeling of wanting to be dead but not wanting to go through the process of dying. So It's not too serious on my end. Suicidal thoughts and drugs do not mix, please do not attempt to do so. Even if you're someone like me who THINKS they can just overpower their thoughts. You wont always be so lucky.
Stay HEALTHY and HAPPY. Much love from me, good vibes to all.

Shrooms definitely brought me to "acceptance". I can see how it could make someone let go of whatever their problems from the past are or something. I could also see how someone could take it and see their "true sad existence" and their depression worsen after that though. Depends on the person, but for the most part I think it would work

If you have never tried shrooms, that in itself is a reason to keep living. So many things you will miss out on, we arnt here long might as well make it a good experience .

IMO, I've always been against the "don't take psychedelics when you're going through rough parts and/or feel depressed". These have been the times they have been the most helpful to me. Not because they offer some solutions out of thin air, but just because they allow me to let go and go with the flow, sometimes for the duration of the experience, sometimes for a few days after it.

I don't think you know how drugs work. Human beings are not that different from each other. No one's THAT different.
Just because someone doesn't find a particular movie "funny" does not me it is regarded as any less funny of a movie. It's the people's perspectives that vary not the effects of the drug.

Thayendanegea said: SUICIDE IS A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO A TEMPORARY PROBLEM.
This quote fucks me off to the core. Not all problems in life are temporary. Some people live with permanent incurable health problems you know!?
But yeah, my best advice would be to exercise and avoid drugs. Meditate with some green tea.
My take on psyches is this. Personally I've never found them to amplify my current mind state. They tend to take me on a trip regardless of my mind state. I found setting to be more of a factor that alters the direction.
I took shrooms when I felt suicidal and depressed and it done me worlds of good. I don't think acid has the same potential as shrooms.
If you do acid I'd say go in with a goal. Focus on something you want to think about in your life, perhaps your problems and try and think about ways you can better your life. LSD has helped me but only when I've been extremely directed I don't thin it's for everyone.
-------------------- My Psychedelic experiences: LSD - 30+ times (2 hits min / max 3 hits) every time. Shrooms - 4 times (2.5 - 3.5g) DMT - 5 times (Powerful breakthrough only once) Life can be one hell of a bitter pill to swallow so I chose acid instead -YeOlde

I think it all depends on the users intentions towards taking the drug prior. If the depressed/suicidal individual is taking it to escape reality and not deal with thier issues then i think it would be a recipe for disaster. On the other hand if he/she were to take it to gain insight or even have an open mind or good intentions towards taking LSD then it may be benifical. The dosage ammount would play a big factor to this too. I think microdosing could do wonders for suicidal tendencies or depression.
