Hallucinogenics

[Riotcoke]

There's a few drug based threads on ESOC, but none that are a discussion of Hallucinogenics as a whole so I thought it would be a nice topic to have a discussion on.

I visit this forum because it makes me feel more connected to the world

Weirdly on topic

Personally not a fan, but I’d encourage everyone to give it a shot.

I start my new job tomorrow morning but okay, if you insist

Yeah I agree with this 100 percent, it's an experience like no other than you sort of have to try at one point even if you might not be a fan

No, they absolutely are not for everyone. People who have a predisposition for schizophrenia and/or other mental illnesses should take extreme caution with them and should only try them in a regulated, clinical environment where there are trained staff. Individuals who are in a negative state should not try them unless they are with people who they trust (preferably calm and patient) and who will help them deal with the negative and difficult emotions that will probably arise.

They are not party drugs, but they can enhance a party. Each person should do extensive research and ensure that they take them in the appropriate setting and have the right set of mind. There is a lot of harm reduction info out there and it's imperative that people take heed to it.

Also to tag onto this, with LSD in the UK you need to check it with a kit. As 10 percent of the time it's not LSD but some other synthetic that's actually dangerous.

Don’t do drugs, kids.

That’s time you can spend playing AOE3. Remember, drugs = minus ELO. No drugs = plus ELO.

Yeah thanks, I'll pass.

Anyway I'd never use hallucinogenic drugs because I'd be too afraid of seeing Toon Summoned Skull, and I imagine he'd be pissed at me for some of the stuff I've said about him

You have a vivid imagination, so they'd be great :)

[I_HaRRiiSoN_I]

I heard a rumour that if you take enough hallucinogenics, you end up seeing / having a vision of Garja winning the next seasonal tournament!

[Goodspeed]

I'm unconvinced there's any risk at all on lower doses. The scary stories you hear are all of people taking too much.
If you have a wild imagination, halve your dose.

@Riotcoke edit thread title to "Hallucinogens"

[Riotcoke]

Define a low dose though? Like most people start at around 100 ug which should be fine for the vast majority of people.

[Goodspeed]

Assuming LSD, yeah I don't think there's a risk of anything scary happening on 100ug, or 50 for people with wild imaginations.

[Riotcoke]

Like i think the best way to do it if you worried about anything happening is just to do it with a group of very close friends and then have a sitter and try not to bring random people in. Then you should have a great first time.

Actually I’m running a study on this now. Results in 2-3 months.

[Goodspeed]

Can confirm tbh. But those weren't psychedelics, which tend to help creativity so who knows

[Jam]

Did you know that micro-dosing stops migraines?

[Riotcoke]

It also makes you more productive :)

I've had some weird thoughts on drugs, but I never thought my brain was an egg.
