yeah, but mental masturbation can be good for creativity, whats truly important is balance.:yesnod::justdontknow:
With psychedelics you can usually take whatever philosophical approach you are comfortable with and your dosing style will reflect that. :cheers:

That's a leap. Especially since none of those studies were able to correlate their findings.

See the study from June of this year.

Also, just because the dopaminergic system influences something does *not* mean drugs releasing it or agonizing the receptors (or blocking its reuptake) will enhance creativity. It might be even more likely detrimental due to neuroreceptor downregulation.

Also, weed -> dopamine ???

Hah, I've done psychedelics too many times to find any rush.

I have found some rather refreshing dissociatives, however :lol:

weed increases creativity too, :yesnod:

hey i didnt say there wouldnt be any negatives to it, thats obviously the laws of the universe, balance is key.

i personally found great curative effects for my severe ocd (intrusive thoughts) and i was even treated and diagosed by a therapist, recieved CBT and was put on paxil, and i didnt respond so they called me "treatment resistant."

all im saying is i found relief from my experiences, though as i have matured i dont tend to feed my compulsions so much because i have experience and trust now that it will pass so i can drop it easier.

nah, it's solid, but saying "a implies b" would be taking a leap as there are many variables

not too interested who took it out of context

i'm just curious, is all ^^

man this is the most bullshit cop out ive ever heard.

what separates psychedelics from other "drugs" is the content you are shown.

on DMT, you really have to ask why your mind is working hard to render this incredibly intricate experience. I just dont get how people can compare the brilliance of the visions to a computer with a "code malfunction."

why do we all see the same space and archetypes?

like the jester, many users report being guided by a jester or "the trickster" A well documented Carl Jung archetype.

Lots of fascinating questions come up with psychedelics that we do NOT have answers for, so no, i dont think its "just an escape from reality.":nojustno:
Any hesitation to consider the value in that is idiocy at best.

Nah I agree, mushrooms years ago completely changed my life.. I may not have made it through without them. They made me see the source of my destructive patterns, eating habits, insecurities e.t.c I am so much happier today because of those EARLY experiences.. but I mean after 100+ trips your just mentally masterbaiting.

I enjoy the wild rollercoaster side of the experience now, the come up, the unknown potency of blotters, just the unknown, because you always forget, its a rush. I don't take the enlightened state so seriously now, I have adopted a Hunter Thompson approach and its fun.

Or is reality an escape from drugs? I figure when we pass onto the next realm, the state we are in (a spiritual state) is similar to dmt or a high dose of lsd/mushrooms but multiply that by like 100, in the spiritual realm there's no need for drugs since the spiritual realm is about pure love and the brilliance of heaven's light, the feeling one gets from those true emotions is inexpressible, in the spiritual realm we will be asked if we learned from our mistakes in life, hope you guys have a good answer!

Heres another good quote i found researching the The trickster archetype.

Quote:


The Trickster Archetype

The trickster is a very important archetype in the history of man. He is a god, yet he is not. He is the wise-fool. It is he, through his creations that destroy, points out the flaws in carefully constructed societies of man. He rebels against authority, pokes fun at the overly serious, creates convaluted schemes - that may or may not work - plays with the Laws of the Universe and is sometimes his own worst enemy. He exists to question, to cause us to question & not accept things blindly. He appears when a way of thinking becomes outmoded needs to be torn down built anew. He is the Destroyer of Worlds at the same time the savior of us all. In dreams {and myth} the trickster can be seen as
The Fool
The Magician
The Clown
The Jester
The Villian
The Destroyer

it blows my mind that there is actual testable legitimacy to the concept.

which is overlooked as woo for most scientific minded individuals.

thats the point i was trying to get across in this forum. :wayshegoes:
