a) self-exploration
b) I believe an invisible membrane exists between you and the world, a porous one that allows the reception and transmission of information through your corporeal form and between the world and your soul. I think psychedelic states widen those pores and allows more information to be processed and transferred at once, and that fascinates me and my sponge brain.
c) It's fun.
d) I see stuff.

when I was younger it was to trip the fuck out and enjoy the ride...
now that I'm older it's usually for spiritual reasons.

I used to have a genuine respect and interest in psychedelics. But after realizing how bunk the whole LSD scene is these days, I now only use them as an alternative to better, more legit drugs.

These are two main reasons I like to trip. Any earth shattering revelations I've had whilst tripping usually disappear when I sober up, so I don't use them for that.

To occupy my mind--can't afford another degree right now, and I don't watch TV/play video games To get in touch with the interconnectedness of humanity For insight into the nature of thought and the creation of the world minute by minute Because of stubborn insistence that I had it right all along--to justify myself To throw me into a state where I can more easily affect change in my surroundings All that said, I really don't use psychedellics all that often

If I want to spend a few months in a constant state of insanity, I trip every weekend. I think I look for god while I'm on them, but I'm not sure if I ever find her. Actually, She has made herself readily apparent to me on multiple occasions, but I grapple with the fact that my experience is self-induced, especially when I've had months off at a time. I really enjoy shroom-space, that dimension that you reach where everything is shpongled. Sitting in a chair with your feet touching the ground at the same level as the base of the chair. Your legs extending miles away from you, the spongy texture that everything takes on, not knowing who you are, and all the other antics that let you know you're in another dimension. I really need to go back. Life, as of late, has been entirely too boring.
