Oh I took no offense eris.  I just hate to hear about people suffering from mental problems cause I had my share which almost lead to me not seeing my 16th birthday (just turned 20 two days ago  :laugh:) . 

Mine used to be negative as well.  Theyd tell me certain people were after me and how I wasn't much of anything.  Suddenly I told it to stfu or be nice in a way (I know this sounds odd ...but it's true). 

And now it's really like my own pal in my head that comes over when I want  him to. 

He even guides my trips.....

The mind is a strange place ain't it? 

best of luck to your gf. I sincerly hope she is doing well.




I really like hearing of other people's "people."  It's very refreshing.  Mine truly are my best friends.  Last night...I cried out for help, and one of them came, and held me.  Told me all sorts of comforting things.  What's funny is that it was the person I least expected to do that.

nope... no imaginary friends for me...
i used to get these eerie voices once in a while, i could never understand them but they had a powerfull intention which would freak me out because i didn't understand it...

and sometimes i get these single words or short sentences that don't seem to emenate from "me" but i never attributed a personalety or had a relashionship with them :shrug:




For mine, their personalities just emerged.  Just swamped out.  Just were "there" speaking.  Lots of imagery is involved.  Pictures going through my head without me controlling them, of very, very unusual and alien places.  I can see them.  The voices take up a chatter and I can "pick out" who I need to speak with.  I've figured out I am sort of a "medium" for them.  Some of them aren't that fond of me.  But they have no choice, since we've found one another and I'm not letting them go.  They are too valuable now...we're interlocked for life. 

I'm not crazy though.

i can totally see it happening in my head...
in my last trip i had a deep conversation with my self (out loude) i talked to all sorts of people and it was like i didn't need to hear what they'd say... i simply knew it!

it was quite libirating, and helped me work out all sorts of issues with my self :tongue:

Not to rant but in all honesty I always found in psychology the term normal to be so broad and insignificant.

This is normal behavior...this is not. However, it contradicts itself by saying this person has this type of personality and this person this type etc and their are differences between people with these personality types.

The point being as a whole we don't really know much about the mind yet. It's too broad a place. That's why we can't explain psychedelics.

I think psychology today is too quick to throw out these labels and medications that fuck you up even more....then say "Well we have to find one that works for you...mix em up...etc" instead of trying to help the person work it out by with themselves.

Voices can be worked through.

Yeah by their standards (psychiatry) I don't think anyone could be considered as "normal".

They try to treat uniqueness like it's a disease in some cases.

Tell me about it. I was 12, and the shrink said, "You'll be on meds for the rest of your life."

What sort of moron makes that sort of statement to a 12 yr old??!

I have found my own way to heal and to grow. I have made peace with the people inside of me. In my adolescence, I was scared of them. That was when my cutting was most severe, and I thought I was doing it for them. Like I needed to hurt myself to appease them. I also cut myself to get "them" out of me. They scared me.

No longer. I treat them like regular people now. And I love them because they've chosen me to communicate to. I consider that to be very, very special...perhaps sacred.

They truly are my best friends. Nobody else compares. Not even my husband.

They come first in my life. That's why I'm obsessed with writing. Because they need me to do it.

Man Ellemy I used to think you were just a normal chick a couple years ago but now the more and more I read your more recent posts I realize how crazy you are how does that go over with taking psychedelics and such they psychedelics don't agrivate your conditions or do you deal with it tripping like you do sober like you said? Man all this talk makes me feel pretty damn normal and even I have questioned myself a couple of times as to if I had any sanity left looks like Ive got lots!

No, no you have it all wrong.  I'm not "crazy."  Just crazy. :wink: 

I am just "me," you understand, there is nothing else to it. 

Tripping vs sober... it's all just the SAME STATE OF MIND.  There is no barrier for me tripping vs sober...it's all the same. 

When I was new to the Shroomery, I was much less eager to "come out" as who I really was.  I was afraid of judgement.  Now, I don't give a shit.  :smile: People here have met me and know me.  Many of my closest friends are Shroomerites.  I figure if Shroomerites can't "handle" knowing me, then who can?  :tongue2:

Psychedelics have helped me find peace, grow and to heal.  I am a total shroomer for life.  :mushroom2:

Oh...psychedelics don't really have anything to do with my people, either. Sometimes their voices become soul-shattering shouts, but more often, I am interacting with spirit beings even higher then they.

Well Im glad to hear your doing better then these days because I think I can recall reading some pretty distressing posts made by you about yourself in recent history. I was wondering if continued use of psychedelics had aggrivated those symptoms or not but its sounds like no so thats good news for us other crazys out there;o)

No way...shrooms and LSD have SAVED my lunatic ass, time and time again. 

The more I trip, the more I see, the more I know, the more I experience, the more I appreciate sobriety and understand that it's ALL "ONE BIG TRIP." 

It's like the farther out I go on psychedelics, the more content I am with existence and who I am.  I can only look at the evidence...which is my life.  :smile:
