That's because the mind is such a tricky beast! There are so many different kinds of states of Consciousness and complex ways for mind to misbehave. Even a category like "schizophrenia" is far too simplistic to capture all the neuro-diversity involved. Ken Wilber's AQAL 4 Quadrants model is very important I think for researchers and clinicians to understand and apply for sense-making of mental disorders.

Nice! Thanks. Best of luck in your studies. You're doing important and difficult work. What made you passionate about that?

That dude is classic. If we don't construct concentration camps, someone else will.

@UnbornTao You're being kinda harsh on him. I think his experience was clearly profound.

I would get some sleep but I was tripping hard in my sleep.

Some day.

Not eyes. Just one neverending trip. Imagine a mushroom trip that lasts for 150 hours. That's what it was kinda like.

Frankly it was too much. I was to the point of losing my mind. I was tripping so much I couldn't even sleep, which drives you mad. Nope. 5-MeOs

We could try it with one topic and see how it turns out.

I understand your point. It's an important point. But I also don't like revealing the topics before I release them. Not sure how to handle that. I'll have to mull it over. Why can't you do your contemplation without watching the new video? No one is forcing you to watch it.

That 24/7 tripping happened in the last few days of the retreat. It wasn't for the whole 30 days. That would have been insanely too much. I have tripped for over 60 days.

Of course you can redose however much you want. You could redose 10 times and trip for 10 hrs straight. Is it a good idea? The more you do it the more unhinged you'll get, the more you'll hurt yourself.

I just don't get those energies from psychedelics. Doesn't matter if I try to master physical life or if I try to fly to the moon.

That's fine, as long as you're not recommending something very dangerous. If you're going to write about needle injection, I don't know about that. We tend to avoid that here.

Howdy! What kind of conditions do you study/work with?

People who badly abuse epistemology, have very poor epistemic standards. People who are very flexible with truth, bullshit a lot, do mental gymnastics, abuse rationality, rationalize their biases, grift, create propaganda. Basically, Dave Rubin types.

It doesn't need to be about Actualized.org. It just means anyone with bad epistemic standards, like Alex Jones or Professor Dave. I have a long list of epistemic scoundrels. Reddit atheists are top of that list.

I don't know why. All I've ever cared about is understanding reality. I had some mild vibratory energy on DPT. But even that disappeared. Energy is not a thing that exists in my trips.

@Something Funny Dangerous. I would do it if my health was better. I see value in it, but the cost might be too high. I don't recommend you do it.

Obviously.

@Thought Art Keep going. God is waiting for you. Don't mind me.

Chronically online keyboard atheists are some of the biggest epistemic scoundrels. Debating them is like wresting an oiled pig. These are the same scoundrels who run RationalWiki.

That was the point.

@Something Funny Dude: https://www.amazon.com/APEC-Countertop-Water-Installation-Free-RO-CTOP-PHC/dp/B06XY8CHL2/ Don't waste your money on overpriced gimmicks.

@Something Funny The question is always: What have you realized about the nature of Reality? What is Reality? What is self? What is Consciousness? That cuts through the mythological games. If the guy says, "I realized reality is a luminous kangaroo." Then he's getting stuck.
