the dangers of psychedelics
    #22178318 - 09/02/15 01:57 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

For me the dangers of psychedelics are the way you can start being delusional and  believe in nonsense like sungazin, orgonites, ormus and all that kind of  bullshit....

Damn why does this even happen... isnt it supposed that psychedelics make you smarter?

Generally the opposite is assumed, but naw, I think they can help people who are smart anyway. They won't increase your intelligence directly.

happens when we forget that even though we are supposedly seeing all this truth and glory, we are still under the influence of a drug.

I think its sort of a right of passage though, learning the ropes of tripping so to speak.

Now I can have +5 trip without freaking out. I've learned how to swim.

The most important thing to remember when you are in the throes of an epic dose and don't like it is that it will be over soon.

Question everything, especially the 'insights' psychedelics offer.

I think the biggest danger of the classical psychedelics is impaired judgement, and doing something stupid or poorly coordinated under the influence because of it.

Not saying there are any direct dangers, especially for people with preexisting disorders, but blundering under the influence is a serious risk.

Oh no... mind as well jump off a roof before I turn into a glass of OJ.

:flyingpig:

My humble opinion, the greatest dangers of psychedelics... Going into fight or flight mode (because you think you're actually dying) & doing something that could really harm yourself when you're actually trying to save yourself.

OR...

committing suicide (like jumping off a roof) because you can't take the agonizing torture anymore & death seems like peace in that moment.

That is why I tend to stay home.  I've gone to concerts and Derbys on stuff before but I really eat a lot more these days than I did back then.  No.  Home is where I wanna be

It can be small things like choking on food or falling down stairs.

Yes staying home is the best.

I got permanent HPPD from my first mushroom trip. It pisses me off that I have HPPD I wish I never tripped cause of it honestly.

HPPD is fucking gay man nobody warned me about it. There is an entire forum dedicated to HPPD sufferers but before my first trip nobody ever seemed to mention it as something that could happen. I got it on my first mushroom trip.

It isn't that bad but I think new people should be warned about it.

I understand what you are saying but it is a lifeline you can hold onto.  If you can.  If you can't you shouldn't be tripping at all.

I've gone to concerts on acid and wandered around on acid.  I've been to Kentucky Derbys on 'shrooms and the Leonard/Hearns closed circuit at Rupp arena.  I do not trip like that any more.  Either home or in an isolated space.  I have exactly zero interest in dealing with anybody who is not also faceless or knows what facelessness is..

I wasn't sure how I'd feel again, tripping,whatever, but

By the way, I also was taken aback by the rapidity of onset the last time I left earth.  I felt shit in 15 minutes and within 60 I was borderline unconscious.  I did not recall it being that fast.  It certainly never was with acid for me

A while back I remember reading a thread someone posted saying that they wanted to trip with their wife. Well it turns out things went pretty bad for his wife & afterwards she wanted the drugs banned from the house. Her wanting the drugs out of the house was based solely on her bad trip. Personally, I think the cons outweight the pros. (The only pro being that you have a good experience together.)

Obviously vinsue & anyone else knows more about their significant other then someone on the internet though.

Psychedlics mimic a lot of symptoms that people with mental illness have.
