Tripping - How often is too often?

You know you have to take a break when you start to feel reality slip between your fingers... Learned that one just in time hehe
 
Okay this is not really related to the original direction of the thread, but to the last few responses...

I just watched Shutter Island.
NSFW:
Even before the part where he talks to the seemingly sane lady in the cave, I felt a strong connection with Leo's character. Having done psychedelics (which I listed above), I could relate to the fractured mind-state of the movie in general. Then, when it finally became known that Leo was indeed crazy, I felt a bit uneasy. If I could relate so well with him, am I indeed crazy?

Let's look at the parallels in my life: before I took psychedelic drugs, I was slightly depressed. I didn't know what I wanted from life. I didn't know what I wanted to be. Then, I took mushrooms and realized that Buddhism was indeed my life calling, and that material things (things that generally satisfy normal human beings) didn't mean anything to me. From a normal person's point of view, this type of thinking is indeed crazy.

And my actions: I've sold nearly everything I own. I've cut off communication with everyone but the most intelligent people I know. I haven't worked a full-time job in two years because I prefer to spend my time reading, hiking, exploring outdoors, riding my bike, taking photographs, etc... Is it crazy to want to do these things instead of working and making money and fulfilling the American Dream?

Have my psychedelic trips begun to blur from that 6 or 8 hour trip into a permanent state of psychosis in 'the real world', and I'm simply the last one to realize it? I haven't touched a psychedelic in probably 3 months, but I'm beginning to wonder whether my Buddhist-leaning mind-state indeed an extended spiral into absurdity!! 8(
 
I don't trip often, i've only done mushrooms twice and I couldn't really imagine doing them frequently... I think i'll keep tripping to a minimum, yet still try to explore the psychedelic side of occasionally
