What insights have you gained from taking psychedelics that have stuck with you?
I normally find I just 'get' stuff when stoned. Certain things I can't wrap my head around while sober just makes so much sense when stoned. It just feels like I have accessed the matrix and can see my reality has been predetermined. This allows me to understand the connection between me, people and events. I've learned things such as why my life is the way it is. I've had depression and I learned it was because so I would spend more time alone and learn certain things that have proved useful years later otherwise I'd have been doing other things and missed out on that knowledge. Once it clicked why I have depression the depression just instantly lifted. Without depression I'd never have even experimented with drugs and learned these things either. It felt like I figured out the 'real' reason I use drugs. Just to learn how to get rid of my depression and learn valuable insights. I've also learned why certain people are around me or have been in my life. They were there to teach me certain things and provide opportunities that have turned out to be crucial later on.
It just seems almost mind blowing to figure these things out and how it could lead to major changes in beliefs. Then when it wears off my insights becomes meaningless and feels like I was just delusional and it was all just my imagination and I just fall back into my old beliefs.
Do these insights have basis in reality or are they normally just an illusion created by the imagination, the result of the mind becoming more aware of patterns and making up ideas to fill in the gaps of the unknown just to make sense of these seemingly unrelated events and occurances and make them seem interconnected in some way.
