" I feel bad for those who have never been addicte
Ok bluelighters i wanted to get some discussion going on wether or not you think psychedelics has made you more mentally tough. No mental revelations or different perspectives or anything like that just the ability to better deal with day to day life and to just be able to get through the problems we encounter as we go through life.

I have gotten over many of my anxieties that i use to have through my use of mostly mushrooms which has in turn made life so much more easy to deal with. Id go as far to say as im almost cocky at points in situations that i use to shy away from, such as a class speech or socialzing with people i dont know.
'
I know some of you have stories of your own and i would love to read them.
 
I took lsd for the first time on thanksgiving and after, it changed so much for me, my anxiety is gone now because I feel like I can conquer anything after surviving 20hrs on that ride. Its given me a thicker skin and the want to not let people push me around anymore. I highly suggest that everyone should do it atleast once.

Hey man great post this also applys to me especially the thicker skin part. I realize we are all human beings and no one is above anyone no mater what the social factors are or whatever else. If someones talking shit i wont shy away or act like a pussy i will go straight up to them, look them in the eye and tell them exactly how i feel...and then go from there. It has ended well both times i had to do this and made me feel better about myself ha.

And yea i have said this before going through a very strong trip an coming out on the other side ok makes me feel like i can go through anything and improves my mental endurance.
 
Exactly, i work with other ladies and they push me around but not any more, and im not letting anyone fuck with me anymore : D lsd is a great fucking drug, im in love!
 
Hasn't made me tougher, but it has made me more open to express myself and my emotions better...
 
I think it has definitely curved me mentally. . If I remember what I learned** Without thought I apply it to my current being.

Because of my ADD I sometimes I must slow down to realize the true PRODUCT that my head has acquired. < It is a truly a magical thing when I have time to think about the realization.

The Other day i was on the subway listening to my ipod, I was a little in the magic state. Opera was playing in my ears and the sky was blue. The Subway doors opened and closed as I traveled in a metal capsule station to station. As the doors opened it was in sync with all around. The people, movements, doors, earth, sky. It was bliss.

The main thing i pulled from most of my acid trips is the need to not worry about the future, to put away most of my anxieties about the unknown. Because everything is connected in some way and things always have a way of working out so me worrying about the future only adds to negative energy, causing things to not go how they are supposed to go. You can only connect the dots looking back, but lsd has allowed me to connect the dots looking forward.
 
Certainly learnt that you have to ride out the bad bits and not panic, which helped with my anxiety. Also the feeling of "knowing" more than other people around you is quite uplifting for day to day life. If you experience ego death - Life just seems a lot brighter and magical when you emerge.

Yeah but you know that others know this too very deep inside, even if they doesn't seem to. This doesn't made me mentally tougher, quite the contrary because social interaction seemed a bit silly sometimes. I have to continue to play the game while everybody kind of know it's a game.

I got used to it now, using psychedelics and drugs more wisely and trying to honnestly integrate the lessons seem to help.
 
psychedelics have actually served to exacerbate my tendency to over analyze and have also limited my ability to focus on a single thought to the extent that I can barely follow through with anything anymore. but to be fair, I was also doing alot of speed and weed at the same time during my psychedelic phase. even a couple months after my several year long stint of psychedelics I still felt enlightened and motivated, but it seemed to drop off sharply after about half a year had passed. i feel like i haven't been at 100% ever since, this was 3 years ago. what goes up must come down?

I concur, I think people nowadays need to look at a bad trip and not see "bad" but "different" every trip can be a good one you just have to have the mental capacity to force it to be a good trip.

Past iROLL22 must setup present iROLL22 in a favorable condition so present iROLL22 can setup future iROLL22 to find himself in advantageous positions. It's a cycle of foresight.

I know exactly where you are coming from haha. It may make me a little egotistical but i dunno it seems to add to my overall well being, that i find im actually very mentally strong even though i had my bouts with anxiety a couple years ago. This is why im so interested in the topic and asked this question because i know i cant be the only one that psychedelics has helped out so much.

Thikal i disagree with you. How is it stupid? I guess it might be a kinda "douchey" thing to say but its not stupid.
