Friend died of a heroin OD last week
    #7971440 - 02/03/08 12:27 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Kid I grew up with since elementary school.  We went our different paths after highschool.

  Sad thing was he had so much potential.  He was an exellent programmer, (was offered $10,000 to write a hostage simulator for the local police force).

He was an excellent musician, (had a band for a few years that ended up touring the state). 

  Ended up selling his full studio to buy more shit :frown:.

Eventually went in and out of rehab 3 times.  And I guess just couldn't take it.
 
I talked with him on the internet about a month ago and he had lost so much use of his brain, I was teaching him stuff about computers again.

  Anyway, just wanted to let that out and present a warning to anyone.

Every time I hear about things like this, it increases my want to know what the afterlife is like, or if there is one. Just to justify being in a better place, or a worse place.

I wonder if it is part of our purpose to wonder so much, and want so bad to grasp and idea without ever even having a chance to know 100%.

:smile:.    For some reason, acid has never taken me to a level of understanding that mushrooms have.  I have had experiences on heavy shroom trips that would justify in my mind the presence of a creator of all.

  Maybe I have not had the right setting, or enough acid to hit that same level of consciousness.

Perhaps you need a thumbprint:

If that doesn't do it for you, nothing will.

I don't know if I would go that far.  I have a certain level of respect for the chems I put in my body, and with respect comes moderation.

  I am glad someone decided to do it for the sake of science though :smile:

My cuz is actually supposed to be bringing me down some DMT to try.
(I have only had a mild Ayahuasca trip)

Yeah, I don't quite know what to think of it either. This would be the first time a person I knew well, and had spent a good deal of time with has died.

Makes me think, now the older I get the more frequently it will be happening, I better learn to deal with it well now.

I want to try one of those South American shaman episodes.
If anything, I could use a good soul cleansing.

Andy, the only drawback is the diet you have to go on in order to low tyramine levels.

Greatone, I appreciate your condolences, sadly it is nice to know others can sympathize from experience, just because I know that they understand fully.

"For some reason, acid has never taken me to a level of understanding that mushrooms have. I have had experiences on heavy shroom trips that would justify in my mind the presence of a creator of all.

Maybe I have not had the right setting, or enough acid to hit that same level of consciousness. "

You'll never know 100% but
I recommend a high dose K trip in a dark room to experience Thantos or OOBE or near death experiences, or whatever you want to call it.

Also, although it sucks to see friends meet their end so ignobly there are worse (i.e. more painful) ways to die.


--------------------
'Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain and leave the Shroomery.' ~ Jim Morrison

Wow, I feel like addicts are dropping like flies.  I just lost a friend (Dreamer987, from this board)on New Years to a junk OD.  We were very close in everyday life and I miss him terribly.  I go through periods of absolute rage for that asshole Dreamer but then I remember that he probably knew exactly what he was doing and I cannot judge him for that.  He wasn't a loser.  He surrendered to "the big Dream."

Still...sometimes I feel like he went too early and I wish he was still around.  I wish he could have resisted his desire to use opiates. 

Sorry about your buddy, man.  :heart:

DOBIE: congrats on 60 sixty days!  That's RAWKING!  I'm SOO proud of you!  :hug:
