Intro: I am a young male and 19 years old at the time of the experience and writing. I am in decent physical health but suffer from moderate anxiety and OCD. Suffering from addictions to methamphetamine (smoked, intranasal) and cocaine (intranasal) partly due to these mental disorders and other conditions. Using both substances daily was putting a strain on my academic, work, and general well being. Was recommended by others to pursue psychedelics to help with these problems.
Purpose of Trip/Report: To see if the use of psychedelics can help curb or stop the use of problematic stimulant use.
T+ 0:00 Live in a rural location so I am sure I won't be bothered by neighbors or any street noise.Acquire 3.5 grams of mushrooms and consume 2 grams of the substance. Try to keep my mind off stimulants while the mushrooms start to kick in.
T+ 0:10 Feeling nervous about the experience so I grab one 12 fluid ounce beer and drink it slowly. Decide to do yard work and mow the lawn(Do not operate machinery or power tools while under the influence).
T+ 0:45 Begin to have my vision blur and body seems to feel mildly intoxicated. I begin laughing uncontrollably as I discover I am mowing geometric shapes throughout my yard. I make an executive decision to stop mowing the lawn and head back inside.
T+ 3:00 Have been riding the high for about two hours before dosing the last gram of mushrooms. Up until this point I have been able to keep my mind of off using stimulants. I become very interested in anything that is colorful (e.g. flower vases) Also win an intense staring eye contest with my dog.
T+ 4:00 Once effects become too much I decide to go onto my bed and survey my surroundings. The bedroom is well lit from natural lighting and surrounded by gardens and trees. Feel very peaceful and my ever present anxiety and OCD seem to disappear for a short while.
T+ 4:30 Finally get the urge to use cocaine for the first time that day. I head upstairs to where roughly 0.5g of powder cocaine is stashed. I eyeball 50mg into one line and consume the substance. I feel a rush but does not to seem to last as long as usual. I feel momentarily defeated that I failed in my experiment but soon forget and enjoy the rest of my trip.
T+ 8:00 The effects of all narcotics I have taken were wearing off and I reflected on my experience before drifting off to a peaceful sleep.
Conclusion: While the use of mushrooms and other psychedelics did not instantly stop my use of stimulants, they started the process of slowing down on my problematic drug use. Within of a month of this experience I had siezed use of cocaine completely and was using methamphetamine infrequently. If abstinence or reduced use of stimulants is what you seek I would personally recommend mushrooms. This report was written six months after trip occurred so the times listed are approximate and I tried to remember everything. Also this entry is my first trip report so I would greatly appreciate any type of feedback to improve clarity/enjoyment. Thanks for reading.
