Welcome
I will be your friend for life. For real.
To be honest with you. finding friendship out there is good. I think that most people are really fucking shitty though. I've been shitty too , it was mostly from instigation. I feel bad about it. Definitely relate to most of what you say. Hopefully you do meet some awesome friends close to you.
People come in and out of my life and I couldn't care less. It's in a good way. That's actually what you want. It's better than holding on to something that should be let go.
I dont really see anything that you wrote as being negative to share , some people bottle all of that up. I've done it it's not nice.
I think that people just take things the wrong way. If we were all free , to look each other straight in the eyes. Just to say what we really meant. Instead of sending a passive aggressive message.
I think that , in a way that would change the world. It also takes courage to speak from your heart and mind. To say what's really going on. It's definitely not a weakness , I see it as a weakness to hold all of that inside. It's like a tight lid on a boiling pot. Fuck that morse code shit.
It's good to say what you mean and mean what you say

Led Zeppelin said: OP this would be the perfect time in your life to take a chance on whatever your dream is. Most don’t try and most that failed didn’t try hard enough. You got no kids, no wife, no dog, no lease, just go do it.
You do not want to be middle aged and working some dumb job with a BS degree wasting away eith regret. Just knowing that you gave it your best shot will keep you going.
All I want to do is go further down the psychedelic rabbit hole: 1000ug + trips, ayahuasca ceremonies, bwiti initiations.
I also want to study religion and UFOs more.
All of these are impossible to fund without any sort of income, I have been applying for hours of dead end retail and fast food jobs every day and being met with rejection after rejection.

Serious question.
How well would woofing look on my CV?
Because I can't find a job, lets say I help out on a farm for months until my course begins again. I either fail or have no desire to go back to my course and now have months of experience working in a farm which would be good for manual labor jobs and probably also retail jobs.
And also get to spend months in a farm, which means getting away from my parents. Only problem is no acid or shrooms.

If the biggest problem you’re going to have is no acid or shrooms I say go do it psychedelics are not essential to being happy
It will look a hell of a lot better than what you currently have guaranteed

In my country the money is given by the government every 5 weeks, so I will wait until my next payment to buy the supplies and travel. I should get around £210 (fucking lol at only getting £210 a month). That will be enough to buy supplies and fuck off. Until then idk what to do fuck this shithole. Hopefully I get a job.

It's definitely better than nothing - same with volunteering, even better if you can volunteer some skilled work and slap that in there. You might find some connections for actual paid work too that way.
And idk, I've never woofed, but my impression is that it's something that's chalk full of hippie types, so I imagine it wouldn't be that difficult to find a plug.

ayahuasca ceremonies, bwiti initiations.
I think your interest in these are great, but for you to try and get out of it what an indigenous person would/will get out of this might be completely different. Your jungle is concrete, and the wild animals are other people in your neighborhood and 1st world society. You don't need what that may or may not give you (IMHE), and you could actually die out there. There are reported cases of Americans and other people from other countries dying out there in those jungles in ceremonies.

Yeah, I love the idea of going to Peru in general, but I don't think I'd do an Ayahuasca retreat there. I've read so many stories about people getting sexually assaulted even at highly regarded operations. And you're right, if there's a medical complication or you get sick you're a long way from help.
I've caught some serious bugs while in central america in remote places and it is not fun, you're pretty much stuck riding it out with whatever over the counter medicine you have access to, Unless you're actually dying, and then hopefully you can get a bus or a plane or a boat somewhere with an actual hospital. I would not want to be puking my guts out while tripping my balls off in a jungle, with a bunch of strangers, trying not to die of dehydration.
