Bam.
You are 21 years old, you say?
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME here wondering if you should.
There is no answers here above anywhere else... Go do something else... Tick Tock, young man. Tick Tock.

This may be true. Or it could be the complete opposite. Sometimes not focusing on your issues is the only way to make them go away.

The main point I'm making is that if I'm constantly questioning my time here, maybe I shouldn't be here...
I love the info though, and its great to be informed about things you're interested in or plan on taking part in.
I guess it boils down to how I envisioned my life vs. how I'm actually living it.
Once you see the light, it's hard to forget it...
If you're constantly questioning it then to me, it's something you actually want but you're trying to find reasons not to follow your instinct. Take a break, then if and when you're ready come on back.
It sounds like to me you're spending more time on here than you want to. Getting some time away from technology is never a bad thing.
For many of us these subjects are pretty normal, not because necessarily we've all indulged, but because we've seen the scene, or know people in it.
Yeah, maybe I need a break. I definitely like posting and contributing to forums and being friendly with everyone, but deep down inside I feel weird for posting on a drug forum.
Maybe I feel guilty? Even though I wouldn't necessarily say that word fits the description. I do hide my time on this forum from everyone I know.

not focusing on your issues, hides them, it doesn't "take them away".

that was a very well thought out post, its a shame some illiterate fool isn't having these revelations as opposed to you.
I would stop posting here if you feel you're time is better spent elsewhere, that's a no brainer.

Honestly, I think if you had something better to be doing with your time you would. We our selfish people, it must be giving you some sort of satisfaction posting on here, or else you would be doing something else.

It's a matter of managing your time, I guess, like any habit. You've made a lot of posts in your short time here (by my standards, at least) so maybe you've just hit it too hard and need a break.
For me, the Shroomery has been awesome for getting information on psychedelics, especially identifying and trip preparation and management. There are some interesting people and topics here, and some not so interesting. Sometimes I find I'm just coming online out of habit or as a distraction when I know there are other things I should be doing; I try to be efficient in my browsing though. The Pub can be entertaining and sometimes interesting, but for me it's definitely a lower quality zone of the forums. Maybe you could just modify which areas,and times you visit?
I also think contributing to the forum is valuable - if you can provide others with your personal knowledge/experience, it is enriching (ignoring the surveillance aspect). I like the idea of being part of a wider network of people, exchanging ideas/advice and sharing interesting information. And for all new-comers, it's a great wealth of information for them.
Anyway, hope it works out for you.

Right on. It's not too hard to keep them alive, just don't over water it no matter how tempting it is (and it can be pretty tempting ).

Hehe, I don't feel like I NEED to do drugs.
I follow basically the same drug schedule as you, Viva. And I have no interest in taking on more drugs to add to it.

Yeah I feel you. It might be that even though I tell myself I have better things to do with my time, at the end of the day I'm still a student who only worries about grades, every day life, friends, etc.
Not much else to do until I move into the real world

Right on. All good advice, I tend to focus on the Psychedelic Experience forum but recently it's been nothing special.

Hes sitting in a big pot on my kitchen counter since its cold out.
I'm pretty sure my last succulents died from over watering, or maybe lack ornate idk I had shit to do and forgot about them for like two weeks. I'm gonna treat this one like my babeh, though.
Got some seeds coming for some more!

You'd probably be surprised if you knew who posted here, or maybe not? Some semi-famous people post here. This website is awesome! Everyone knows that!

Do what the fuck you want, you are a kid.
If this doesn't fit you right now take a break and check it out later.
There is plenty here to be entertained by and also learn from, it's not all the pub.
Myself, I have not been posting much at all, I've been pretty bored and or to busy.
Come back in a few months, a year, or even in the next hour. Browse around read and leave.
It's not hard.
What is easy is a cry for attention.
What do you want? What do you want here?
I think that is what you are asking.

I really haven't done much growing honestly. I've always thought about it (we're on the shroomery after all). Maybe I'll give it a shot!
I'm gonna hit the hay. I'm in a different country adjusting to time changes. But thanks for all the replies; I'll check this thread out tomorrow with a set of new eyes and see how I feel.

Gardening and growing plants in general has been a very rewarding hobby. So many cool and chill people in Ethno, it's like a whole another forum over there.

That is definitely one thing I absolutely love compared to other forums, most of the subforums are completely different from the rest. It's more like a community rather than a room full of people.
