Show off! That does look like an amazing place to live though. Had 3 does come in the backyard today. I have a deck 40 feet off the ground so its a natural deer stand. Didn't take one with my bow though because my wife's car is in the garage where I hang and skin my deer. The garage door is frozen to the ground with a 3 foot drift against it. Oh well, have 2 in the freezer and until end of February to take a couple more.

I checked myself into rehab, for alcohol, a year ago. I just passed 13 months booze free. The psychiatrist prescribed trazadone (SSRI) for insomnia. I was worried it would blunt psychedelics, but I didn't have that side effect. At least I didn't for 8 months or so.

Since September I noticed some reduction in psychedelic effects. I tried mescaline for my first time and 1/2 gram didn't do much. I tried zaps for the first time in November and 1.2 grams didn't do much. I tried some mexicana in December and that didn't do anything.

I flew to Denver to see Ott at the beginning of January. I took 2 grams of PE and 0.3g molly. I didn't feel a thing lol. The show was amazing, but it could have been just a bit better :smile:

Anyway, I took 2 weeks off of the trazadone and ate 1.6g of ABV yesterday morning. Jesus. I hadn't tripped that hard in a quite a while. A little K after the peak was so fun. I've replaced the trazadone with weed gummies and I'm sleeping just fine. Anyway, I'm glad to be able to enjoy serotonergic drugs again.

Good move, man. An SSRI should be a last resort for anything, imo. Took that shit for 15yrs...

Can you give me an example of how it emotionally dulled you? Was it a general dullness or only toward certain things? I'm just curious.

SSRIs made me kinda slap happy and turned my shit yellow, I didn’t stay on them for more than a few days.

As far as emotional dullness, antipsychotics are worse.  They made it impossible for me to cry, laugh, or get excited.  Killed my motivation for improving myself and my life, slowed my thoughts, speech, and reaction speed.  It was like living in a dull fog, for a while I could barely string together a full sentence.

I’ve been on them for 8 years now, one of the biggest mistakes of my life.

I heard it described as somebody being aware that they weren't experiencing emotions when they should be. Like they would be really mad but they can't. Like the ability to get mad is gone.

Im not sure I even have the ability to fully describe it, but when I stopped, my existence felt more...vibrant? Not like everything was better, but I felt things more intensely, I guess. Good or bad, I felt more of a spectrum... To compare it to color feels the most accurate for some reason. But yeah...I was dull. Something exciting happened? I was less excited than I would be now. Sad? Same. Ya feel me?

I felt more alive when I stopped.

Tbh, I dont think doctors monitor that shit enough, and I say that as someone who had multiple doctors through that stretch of time, spanning different states even. Idk...I could say a lot about it, but I dont want anyone to be impacted by if they really need it, and I'm not really qualified to be having that impact, so I wont.

But yes, emotional dulling is a common side effect.

Yeah, I can confirm some of this - I've taken SSRIs of one sort or another continuously for about 25 years or so.

They do help reduce the severity of the bad feelings that depression brings, but only so much.  The cost of that relief is that it also takes away from all other emotional responses; everything is kind of moderated down. 

However, I do appreciate SSRIs, as they're a lowest common denominator kind of treatment for a condition that affects more than 10% of the population, so very accessible. 

After many years of SSRI's and increasing/continuing depressive episodes, I started receiving ketamine treatments in-clinic & that was really eye opening for me: it stopped suicidal ideation dead in its tracks, immediately.

Not long after, I started using mushrooms & that was even better...I can get a solid 6 weeks of happiness and good feelings after a solid, full-on mushroom trip. Sadly, it doesn't work the same for me if I just do a micro/low dose. So I stick with 3.5g (non-pe) trips as my go-to for helping to manage my mood. My docs have been supportive.

And this is why I didn't want to dog the meds too much. They're surely saving lives, even if there's a drawback. Keep a guys heart beating long enough to find relief through other means. Glad you're still chuggin along, my man. 🫂

I think I found it to be the most therapeutic thing I've ever tried.
It was incredible actually it was undersold to me and I felt like it sounded too good to be true when I decided I was gonna try it.

What really convinced me was hearing Jim Belushi describe his ayahuasca experience and his Takeaway from it. It was exactly what I needed.

Awesome - I’m glad it was good for you. I have a friend with advanced cancer that is considering it - will see how it turns out. My buddy’s not too inclined to try shrooms, unfortunately, else I’d help him find a way.

I worked with it for a while and the ingredients were at least at the time completely legal and easy enough to source and I didn't want to do a whole ritual thing in a different country so I just ended up doing mine in my yard.

I would highly recommend it especially for somebody who's having some sort of an existential crisis. It really put my mind at ease and made me feel at peace.
