I have taken both LSD and shrooms. Different experiences by far. First of all with LSD you never know how pure it is. There is a hang over with low quality and you can't make it go away. It lasts for 12 hours on average and its hard to act 'normal' when going into a store to get a drink. If you have everything ready for your trip and don't have to gain composure, it could be insightful, if you direct your trip in such a way.
However, I recommend mushrooms. The trip will be about 2 hours and you can easily stop it with a xanax or smoking cannibs. I have had my most awakening moments on shrooms. I find a series of 3 times works best. You can do it in a series of days, or 2-3 hours between dosing. And keep dosing low. If your not looking for the kids effect you'll be happier with your experience if you keep to 1- 1 1/2 grams each time.
The first time I stretch and get in tune with my body. *i will note that while I love to touch while on either, I have not had a partner in my experience who enjoys the same, which is fine.. Cause I found him now and would regret having the prior experiences.
The second time is time for reflection. Focus on what I want to know, for instance the prior post about learning the fate of a retarted boy. While I have always known to keep my search in a certain positive direction, if I needed to know something that could have a possible nasty answer I would simply prepare for that possibility. I reflect on my past, my present and look to the future for outcomes I have control over.
By the 3rd time I am ready for the spiritual revelation. Be ready yourself with a notebook, to write or draw what you feel. To keep a record.
I haven't ever come away empty. And when using shrooms in anyother way I have not had a benefit.
It is during the most difficult times of my life that shrooms came my way and I was able to look inside and find a way to navagate the path ahead. I don't know how life would be different without threse experiences, I am sure it would not be in a positive way.
Many times in my life I have reflected back to what I learned during these times. Once I had a tarot reading. It was by a novice and he did an amazing job. He answered questions I had and brought up things I had only discussed with God. The Spirit definately hears and answers your call.
Have a play list ready, if your unsure how to prepare your playlist.. Pray and add what feels right. It will take you through. Have food, drinks, and turn your phone off. Know kids and pets are safe so you don't have to worry about anything, the coffee pot off and candles out.
Have a deck of tarot cards with you, or a symbol of the type of search you are on. (bible for spiritual, text book for knowledge, etc..) and have modern day devices that can help answer any questions that may arise. I recommend highly having a fire.
If you and your husband have a good relationship, and you trust him in and with your soul he is the perfect sitter. It will likely bring you closer and he won't feel like a sitter at all. There couldn't be anyone else more relevant to have with you. There is always a wet blanket when you have numerous people around, and because you are doing this for introspection there is no need to have people whose personal trip will interfere with your journey.
Not everyone understands self inspection. I read this book, "way of the Peaceful Warrior" by Dan Millman when I was 15. It was abiut a man searching for lifes meaning, wanting to attain self actualization. Another of my classmates read the same book and said it was about ninja's. The Rainbow Family Gathering use to be a bunch of like minded people praying for world peace on July 4th, and sharing stories of what has happened in their life over the last year. Everyone is fed 2x a day, and no one goes without. Money is obsolete and people look out for one another. In the last 10 years the younger generations have came in and made such a bad name.. Begging on their way, stealing from local businesses, and thinking its a place to go do drugs or hide out from the law. Younger people just don't understand how hard it was to get to where we were and they just came in with their backwards raising and changed the scene. I tell you all that because the same goes for some of the prior responses. Some don't understand what you are searching for. I do. I've done it for the same reasons, and pass my experience, and knowledge on to a younger generation member who may be able to open the closed eyes of some of their peers.
Please come back and let us know how it went.
Take natural food, Cannibs can meet our hguman PH levels, we can drink the liquid and sustain life. Food is for pallet. You will understand when you bite into your favorite berry.
*when I say pray.. It doesn't have to be to God, just to a power greater than yourself, and follow what you feel no matter how sillly it feels at the moment.. Just go with it. It will all make sense when the time is right and you have your moment.
