I recall we talked about going out there but we were too lazy....for some reason....there were cows on the leavy by the vet school too back then so that was a regular stop.

Back around 1986 a buddy and I used to hit up a pasture on River Road but across the road from the levee. They were in abundance there.

I'm interested in this as well. If/when I do psychedelics again, it'll probably be that or shrooms.

Any tips or experiences you care to share?
I would recommend going to a country more steeped in the substance to have you experience - Ideally a week-long retreat in Peru/Colombia/Costa Rica.

It will be done in a group setting that is sort of unlike with the other medicines.

I wouldn't go do it unless you truly feel "called" to it.

The immediate breakthrough is DMT.
That sounds a little glib. Breakthrough to what?

DMT is referred to as "the spirit molecule" for a reason. 5meo-DMT is called "the god molecule" - for a reason.

I don't love this description. I'd prefer to say one can learn to navigate the trip space, almost like a gained skill.

This is exactly what I want to do. Just haven't looked for places. Is there a certain site or service to set up trips like this?

I would say that's where I'm at in life. I've been reading/researching the subject pretty intense lately preparing for it and trying to decide what I'd like to use.

I haven't done much research on ayahuasca, but I remember seeing a documentary on it a few years ago. It seemed to be a very spiritual setting and experience for the people.

I guess in the words of McKenna, I'm looking for my "heroic dose", just don't know what I want it to be of.

Just a way of saying some people find it too intense I go on and say you learn how to focus your energy. Everything in your mind is dialed to 11, an enormous amount of information is being processed

I take mushrooms fairly often. I don’t take much. 1 g of chocolate maybe a little more. This is just above what they consider a micro dose. I just go about my day or evening like I always would. It definitely puts me in a better mood. I notice I am much more observant of the little things in nature. I also seem to be much more in tune with my emotions. I tend to sense other people’s mood while on them and notice how they are acting and their emotions more.
I think it helps with mood for sure (some say that it helps with depression).
I notice I usually have an after glow for a couple days after taking them.
I will take one day and then have at least 2-3 off.

I've wanted to try this but haven't found a source yet. I know I need to be more empathetic and I thought this might help

FYI the mushrooms I get are all grown inside and are specific strains. I honestly have no idea if they are the strains they say they are but they are not picked out of a field like we used to do. That seems to make each experience more controllable as to the strength I am taking.

Never had a bad trip back in day late 80's early 90's. Wasn't a club and a dance floor I wouldn't try when tripping balls. Nothing like having energy all night and then going to take a piss and watching the walls move while holding your dick in your hand. Good times

Soltara Healing Center


I’ve done a bunch of reading on Ayahuasca and this place keeps coming up as being the most legit. I originally was interested in Rhythmia in Costa Rica, but there’s a lot of hidden negative reviews with them.

Haven't done lsd or shrooms in 20 years.

Lsd was stronger and more fun. But lasted 12 hours and you felt odd the next day.
Shrooms were more visual and also make everything funny. But the best thing is the come down. One minute your high. One minute your normal with no cracked or feeling like lsd or mdma.

Ketamime is great. It's cousin PCP is not. Ketacet is too strong. Lots you into a 2-3 hour k hole. Ketamine in small doses is very interesting. Almost an out of body experience. But too much and you go into like a coma for a half hour to hour or two. You will still be there, but unable to move or react.

There's a lot of research that microdosing is beneficial to those suffering from PTSD.

They need to do something to help veterans.

I took LSD in the Harris Casino, got trapped in there for hours, won about $2k on video roulette and then rode the ferry back and for about 3 hours, as everything got really weird, I then went to the carrousel bar and began thinking about my thesis. I got dizzy and was drunk, so I went finish my trip in my hotel room.Vision quest are really fun, shrooms gives me the bubble gut and LSD just last forever. Taking a poop while tripping is the craziest thing and don’t stare at a mirror, you’ll get stuck.

I've experienced shrooms once when I was about 23 years old with a couple friends.

Probably the best feeling of euphoria I've ever had.

That was about 17 years ago, but some of it I can remember.

Laying on the couch, watching The Matrix while I was breathing the walls would move back and forth.

I’ve had a lot of experiences with both, and they’ve all been overwhelmingly positive. I consider LSD in particular to be significant in understanding myself and developing self confidence in my teens and early-to-mid twenties.

I don’t take either very often anymore. Maybe once or twice a year. “When you get the message, hang up the phone.”

wouldn't mess around with LSD but some of those ketamine centers are supposed to be legit. Think there's drug development going on for a nasal ketamine spray to treat depression.


A friend of mine does the ketamine treatments for depression in a clinical setting of course. He an ex-pharmacist.

Says it works amazingly well for his depression.

I've only done shrooms a few times. I don't think I've ever dosed quite enough to get to that point.

Shrooms feels a lot like your first time smoking weed.
