The Shroomery is 19 years old.
Yes, oits old enough to join itself, and older than the 15 year old kid, bless him, the Ythan that was, who created it.
Are you 19?
What were you like at 19?
Lets discuss the significance of 19
(No offense intended with the video)
When I was 19 I literally escaped the loony bin, I had spent 4 years on the inside for psychosis, and was a year away from discovering shrooms.
A golden year.

When I was 19 I was heavily addicted to smoking meth and heroin while working as a painter and attending college, a pretty dope year I might say
19 is a lifetime, the website must be in it's maturing years.

When I was 19 I was just starting college, working a shitty job doing overnights at a gas station, singing and playing guitar in a punk band with two of my best friends, starting to get into all kinds of new drugs (first tried mushrooms at 19 ) and was probably at my lowest point in terms of mental health, brutally depressed and anxious all the time. My first serious girlfriend moved in with me when I was 19. Lost one of my best friends to opiate OD when we were both 19. A fucked up point in my life, but I still find myself nostalgic about it sometimes. There were some really great times that year.

I was a fucking idiot at 19. I was so profoundly, unbelievably, incredibly stupid that I couldn't even begin to comprehend my own stupidity. Irresponsible would be an immense understatement in describing 19 year old me. I was probably in the running for top 10 stupidest and most irresponsible human beings of all time, and my life was total and complete shit as a result.

Edit; Also, what are we gonna do for the shroomery's 20th? It should be something good.

This. But I had great friends, a great girl, and more sex, drugs, and raving than I could shake a stick at.
TBH, if I hadn't been the irresponsible prick I was back then, I'd probably look back wonder why I spent the time doing something sensible rather than doing the above.
A boy in a mans body would probably be well advised to act like a boy IMO. Don't rush to get old, yanno? It sure as fuck comes for you quick anyway, whether you like it or not; I kinda feel sorry for those that WEREN'T being irresponsible as fuck at that age...

Yeah, in a way even though I regret all those years, I also kinda feel sorry for people who didn't go through that. It seems like later they sometimes feel like they missed out on something. And maybe they did.
The danger is, sometimes some people never move on from being that irresponsible and stupid.

The only downside for me is that I find it hard to associate with, and understand, people who never went through that phase in their lives. The 'sensible' ones.
It's like they talk a different language to me sometimes..

They do indeed, they also have completely different body language.

I'm a psychotic but I'm stable like a brick shithouse on dissociatives.
I know firsthand what psychosis can be like though, even though i only reallyu lost the plot om MXE once.
Loss of control man, so scary.
Welcome back.
To me a 1980s psychiatric hospital was like a concentration camp.
Psychedelics saved my life
Shrooms LSD XTC MXE
God bless thee.

I tried shrooms for the first time at 19, first year of art school, so a year of big changes I suppose. It's only been 4 years though and I'm not sure how different I am, hopefully more sophisticated and informed and even tempered but who knows. I certainly consume a lot more cannabis than I did then

If you asked me to name one thing that happened in 2004, about myself or anything, I would look at you with a blank stare.

I'm 19 right now. Interesting year so far. More drugs, heartbreak, highs and lows than any year yet.
Here's to the last month or so!

Unless you happen to be an insecure depressive mess, then just do your best to get by.

It's all part of the fun. Shit when you're in it, but amazing when you come out the other side.
