      Growing shrooms is easy and cool.

      Okay maybe not super easy, but definitely cool. Do some research on r/shroomers and r/unclebens, it's legal in 47 states to have spores shipped to you (because they don't contain psilocybin) and there's basically no way anyone is going to know you are growing them, it's not a huge production with power use and odors like growing cannabis. I was able to successfully grow them after a couple of months of trial and error, started with the Uncle Ben's method and now I'm using a pressure cooker, agar plates, wild bird seed and mason jars.

      I've had very positive experiences with psilocybin and I try to trip monthly if I can. It's been extremely effective at combating my mild to moderate depression and anxiety.

          You order it from the internet from a variety of websites. You're looking for Mimosa Hostilis root bark, specifically.

      But have you seen how every other drug forum on the internet has turned out? Idk, I sort of like to keep the part of me that just wants to get high all the time separate from the radical politics. Maybe a c/harmreduction?

        No, I've never participated in one and I would not here

    Putting a little bit of indica at the bottom of the bowl helps soften the direction of a salvia trip.

      Why soften it? The kind of existential terror you get from salvia is a hoot. I have fond memories of slowly being shrunk into nothingness by the contraction of the triangles that compose existence.

        That sounds a lot like ketamine infusion, except the ketamine was pretty chill.

        If it’s the first time you’ve done salvia, it honestly helps. I smoke it straight now.

    salvia fucked me up because I'd have a weird terrifying experience and then forget it immediately and be left with unease

      Because it opens your mind up beyond material reality, and other beings exist in that space. Time is also part of our materiality, so time ceases to exist as interdimensional antagonists feed off your soul energy. Then before they send you back they wipe your memories.

      I wish I was kidding.

        I hope you're kidding. It just fucks with your brain function so you trip balls. There are no space vampires sucking your aura.

          Little machine elves and eyeballs. Terrence Mckenna wrote at length about them. Eric the Salvia Guy (Internet Comment Etiquette) described the exact same phenomenon. Only learned about them after my experience and was chilled to find the similarities.

          God no the trip is horrible and makes you feel like shit. It's like Ayahausca or natty light. I have no idea why people inflict it on themselves.

          Take little itty bitty hits progressively every 30 seconds or so until you rip open the fabric of reality and can exist in both worlds. Only real way to enjoy it.

    salvia extract could be very effective for clinical therapy sessions if we didn't live in hell world, the ego death and short timeframe can be useful for rebooting prosocial instincts in certain contexts
