Just want to chime in on a drug none of you will be using, the dissociative anaesthetic memantine that is used worldwide against alzheimers and which has many offlabel benefits, such as soothing deeply autistic "unreachable" children and addition to antipsychotics to diminish the negative symptoms of schizophrenia.
I used it heavily during my pain years, as I rather risked psychological addiction and being a bit wacky because of a dissociative than get a physical opioids addiction with the morphine, fentanyl, buprenorphine and oxycodone they threw at me. (Oxy was the most recreational, hehehe) So I barely took the opioids and instead indulged deep into the memantine to dissociate away from the pain, which worked better than the modest morphine i got.
I rolled that usage back to once every two weeks, with zero fiending.
Memantine is very akin to nitrous oxide, ether and ketamine, except you take 1-2 oral doses and are high all day.
1mg/kg is a good entheogenic level.
What its like though.. You are kinda drunk/nitrous like, not unlike a drunk but lucid, think robowalk. its very "clean", no strong side effects aside from the high.
But the fun part: Its a dissociative, so you are inching closer to loss of consciousness, such as happens with falling asleep. There can be rare but very vivid visual hallucinations of shadows morphing into objects, faces, animals.. good stuff.
What I do: on a day I'm going to get high I prepare by sleeping too little on the night previous, setting the alarm for 3-4h and sticking with it.
If I combine the sleep deprivation with the memantine, there is a tendency to close the eyes, and if you let go, you get gripped by a lucid dream, typically lasting 3-10 seconds.
So you're stoned, you close your eyes and let go, at once your consciousness detaches from your body and you are experientially into a dream, while mentally wide awake, so you know your real life body is on the couch, but the bubble of your consciousness is in the virtual world of dreams, aka the spirit world, your consciousness bubble is independent of your physical body, but you know you're just dissociated from it and can force-open your eyes to get back to reality. Astral projection, if you will.
I am experimenting with having my consciousness bubble go places. Recently I had the amazing experience of my consciousness bubble being inside the wood of my nkondi, so my spirit body was filled with solid wood, it was amazing to experience this, to have my consciousness go outward of a solid physical object - i sensed to be filled with solid wood, the wildest thing ever!
Then after the 3-10 second excursion, i snap back into my body, peacefully sitting back in my couch, i take a minute to process what happened, closing my eyes and zapp! going back in!
I'm still learning how to do this, but the great thing is, my Nkondi and Spirit guide are with me on this and often, with my permission, shape the dream to take me to a place of their choosing to have the educational experience that furthers the process they guide me through, like an immersive virtual reality.
I've been places like the Congolese jungle, meetings with spirits, appearing to random people in a susceptible mindstate, my Spirit Guide who identifies as God says that when I get better we're going to do remote viewing stuff and even, offworld stuff such as moon visits.
Its the realm of dreams so, no dangers of the vacuum of space, the cold or the suns radiation
Its really very pleasant combining astral projection practice with a nonoffensive non-moreish dissociative without crazy side effects, discomforts, panic attacks or dangerous confusion of reality and vision, when i open my eyes i'm at once grounded into being high but, not confused or overwhelmed.
I use higher doses than your grandpa but, its good territory you send your relatives with Dementia into, if they got it, see if you can fix that their doctor prescribes them memantine, if they like alcohol it will be something familiar to hold onto as their disease progresses. Many medications are unpleasant, this isn't one.
So, a little glimpse of what its like to combine meditation techniques with a worldwide available medical dissociative prescribed to elders and kids alike.
Astral Projection techniques are taught all over the internet for free and mumbo jumbo aside, its teaching yourself to slip into dreamland without losing consciousness, so no scary spiritual paranoia needed, just developing a physiological skill of your body. This is what shamans do. Dissociatives augment this because they take you closer to dreamland, by aiding the detachment process of your consciousness to your senses, at which point you are a consciousness bubble in the realm of dreams.
