Tried shrooms for the first time last night. My experience: - 150uq lsd - 200uq lsd Male, 22, 80kg approx. Did research including trip reports, and what happens to the brain on psilocybin. Did a sauna, went for a quick snorkel in the ocean, some of The Work of Byron Katie to build my state during the day. I had a healthy meal midday and didn't eat until after the trip which I took at 7pm. Chopped shrooms and soaked them in a bit of lemon to reduce nausea, whilst I did Hatha Yoga, right before taking the shrooms. After ingesting I wrote my intention in my journal: See what will arise when I ask questions regarding my life purpose, specifically what I want to create for the world. (these times are all approximations, I did not record the experience live) The come-up: Laying on my bed, took approx half an hour to feel state change. Begun feeling giddy and blissful emotionally, slightly drunk. 40mins: when I closed my eyes I could see faint, beautiful patterns, colours such as red and green, like a checkered spiral that twisted. Having random, shallow self revelatory thoughts such as "be kind to yourself". I remember thinking it was so crazy that my roommates literally picked these mushrooms off of the ground and now they are altering my perception. 1 hour: My mind started morphing with reality, it felt like my mind was being twisted, stretched then squeezed. At one point it felt like my mind was twisted, and my awareness was twisted past, almost ducking under my cognitive thought and touched reality, followed by a burst in amazement (tough to describe). The sensation of my mind being twisted, and particularly squeezed was very enjoyable. At one point it felt like my mind was being twisted as if you were to take two opposing corners of a bed-sheet, one with both hands and then cross your arms over, but from multiple 'points' of my mind. 1.5 hours: Room slightly vibrating, very noticeably, when focusing this effect stopped. I begun to ask the question: Must the human race continue? This is a question I have been stuck on when Visioning my LP, because I am not sure whether I want to somehow ensure the future of the human race with an explicit intention of helping people evolve and transcend. I concluded the human race can disappear, there is no governing body that claims that they must live indefinitely. But then I asked the question - what if there is and I don't know? I realised I have a genuine passion for philosophy during this trip. It is amazing that I get to question reality, and it is my ultimate tool for navigating life. I could see myself learning to keep returning to my unique perspective by asking "what is happening for me now?" instead of letting my mind wander off into other people's theories. I have been thinking for a while whether I actually authentically value questioning and philosophy. I have felt like an imposter taking an interest in this stuff in my teens, I haven't put in the effort to pursue it like it is my mission in life. I genuinely don't know if I am cut out for deep spiritual work, maybe I'll end up like one of those people on this forum, or someone I'm sure you've met at any sort of new-agey seminar, who in ungrounded, deluded, and thinks they know everything already. But the fact that I can ask a question, then flip the question on myself, really test myself by saying "okay how do I know that?", gives me a great deal of encouragement at the potential of my own intellect. I thought about the people in my life who I've literally shown Leo's contemplation with a journal video or have seen it and haven't even tried it, or are in no way interested in philosophical work. This released a fair bit of doubt that I had. I contemplated for a while do I really want to sit in a room and ask questions for thousands of hours? because that really is the life I have been visioning. 2 hour: I went into the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. I repeated words like 'I' and my own name whilst looking at myself, I begun to feel into my awareness, there was some significance of my breath, started to feel some oneness and it was fucking awesome. Vision as a Healer What came to me regarding my question: Love People. My roommate came back from the movies and we were talking in the kitchen. She has very different intentions in life to me. But she is here, she is exactly the way she is and I love her haha, Idk if that was an insight or I made that up. Just seeing her how she was, was beautiful. I remember the first time I tripped having a similar yet stronger feeling for someone I didn't know that well, but having such a strong feeling of love. This feeling is really the most profound thing I have got so far, the most intense love I have felt is in the presence of another person, on psychedelics, I thought back to my job as a disability support worker, and one of my clients asking me to squash and cuddle them and tickle them, and the joy of giving affection to another person - so I begun to vision a career with this experience at the centre of it. I can see myself scouring the planet for healing modalities, travelling all over the world working with academics to tribal shamans to construct an opus of healing the human being. Before I went to sleep I lay on my pillow and realised I didn't feel as depressed as I usually do, i actually didn't realise I was depressed, when i would put my face on my pillow and let out a little sob I thought I was faking it because I felt most of the emotion in my face, but I just felt calmer and more at ease - this added a layer of meaning to my vision of helping people ground themselves, I thought "shit if this is how I feel after a little bit of mushroom, imagine years of health work, trauma release etc, then being able to help others do this." I moved a picture of someone making music on my vision board and put it in the bin, then replaced it with an image I had in my 'emotion' section of someone getting guided through breath work, the vision felt so complete. I know I made it up but as I was visioning being a healer I could feel myself tearing up, if you look at my bookshelf and basically what I pursue in my life it feels very congruent. I visioned using intense love to heal people. And to love/help people 'from top to bottom', their health, heal their trauma, help them develop their intellect. I wrote things down like Integral Psychiatrist, Integrate Occult Healing with Western Medicine, start my own Primary School which teaches children bulletproof psychological tools. I saw myself as almost a mother to people, and played with the idea that perhaps it is not my role to keep all of society alive as humans are allowed to become extinct, but whilst humans do exist to love them whilst they are here.. "my life is not dedicated to humans, but a human, the one in front of me who I am helping in every single way". I would be using my passion for philosophy and questioning, my kundalini experience and altered states experience as a teenager, my interest in health an nutrition, to help people heal and grow into a more grounded, insightful version of themselves. Life exactly the way it is is dope I saw my foot, and begun so ordinarily conscious that I had a foot. And how that alone is so awesome. I have a fucking foot. I was flexing my toes. Life exactly the way it is, is so beautiful. This made me think of the Sadghuru quote "it's not about becoming superhuman, its about realising being human is super". It so fucking is. It made me think, why isn't this apart of every conversation? Like shouldn't every conversation just be two people screaming at each other "why the fuck am I here! are you real?! am I real???" like we all just go about life working so fucking hard, throwing this matter around and its literally incredible. It is so amazing just by itself that I can question, like perhaps I won't even get any "answer" or the 'answer' won't be a word blah blah blah, but the fact that here I am, and this mind goes "hey what's up? Wtf is this?" it's wild. I was able to see questioning as an end in itself. I don't need to change reality at all for it to be incredible, but this is perhaps my motivation to do spiritual work, if I gather correctly that spiritual work is intentionally aligning me with these kinds of realisations, the experience of appreciating my foot, the euphoric feeling I had in the mirror when feeling oneness. I've been not practicing anything regularly for a while now but I think I want to start taking it more seriously. other random thoughts - I want to be more be gentle with the kids I look after at my work, I can be a bit firm in my tone of voice - I want to stop trying to change my brother or push him in any direction, he has his own vision - I should stop expecting people to understand me, nobody is obligated to understand or agree with me - my body is pretty fucked, i should probably address the obvious pains and imbalances - no I shouldn't have that beer, eat that etc. It is a stupid fucking idea - if I was to sit upright and erect my spine, sit like Sadghuru, it would release a lot of pain, but would also take courage to do that in front of people. A lot of the pain in my neck and spine is potentially lack of courage to sit up tall and proud.

Dude did you watch Leo's game series? Literally none of what you have said here has anything to do with attracting a woman, you stood in a club and thought things, you've done no work to attract anybody here. You can literally approach any woman in your vicinity, get their attention then talk to them. There is literally nothing stopping you except your decision not to do it. You can't attract any one if they don't meet you.

I'm 21 and struggling financially. If I was in your situation I would invest in creating a heart felt business, I want to be financially independent whilst creating my art; maybe dropping serious money on a camera setup for youtube, dropping serious money on an Eben Pagan or Dan Kennedy marketing course.

You're right it doesn't really change much, you were still going to have to do work to relieve your social isolation regardless of this diagnosis (whether this diagnosis is even accurate). Owen Cook will be a great mentor for you. If you live in the US absolutely get to one of his free tours, Owen was light level autistic, his son is autistic and he has had some pretty cool social adventures, and you can go on a payment plan for his programs which is what I did, this will give you good exercises or generally getting your shit together, and also some good outer game techniques to help you with speaking. These 'insights' you've had about yourself are a huge catalyst for negative motivation, so if you don't do some sitting down, journaling, contemplation and research on how to release this you will self sabotage. I am 22 in April, I had 5 different girls in my bed and couldn't get an erection before I lost my virginity in 2022. I moved to the city and went out and talked to women every single day until I made it happen. I sharpened my appearance, I did Leo's humour visualisations, I did Holotropic Breathwork to release trauma, I ate well, hit the gym, made sure my house was always clean and tidy. I also met extremely close friends during this process and started a public speaking workshop through the Meetup app. THE WHOLE TIME I was shitting myself nervous, every day a did an approach that pushed my comfort zone, I got shut down by girls and also guys who just didn't want to interact with me. I know my motivation is probably somewhat different to yours and sounds less deeply rooted in self-esteem issues, but if you have a social problem you've got to face it head on and proactively. 'social problems can only be resolved socially' - My friend Ryan who heard it from some other guy. Also, dude find some shit that you enjoy outside. Idk go rock climbing or something, this has been huge for me, snorkelling, idk. We spend so much time on our fucking screens as young men it would probably solve so many of our problems if we went for a hike each week.

I found two great wings, one amazing wing who is an integral reason to why I lost my virginity, I got lucky with a really good start, he's probably on this forum tbh. That was two out of probably 12. I found one no the Game Global Telegram group, another in a club. You will find guys who aren't really interested in anything else, and just go to work, play video games then walk around on the weekends looking to score, such guys didn't really click with me, I was looking for guys who ground themselves in their own time/had a sense of passion and purpose... In saying that, I was being picky and was not that special, neither are you. You can also just recruit people at the club lol, you meet a guy you like they can act as a wing even if they don't know what game is, one of the RSD guys (forgot his name) would go out alone and get new wings every night.

Remember Leo said the vision the best that you can come up with right now, and as you progress on you LP tastes will change.

Brev shave it. When my dad started losing his hair he combed it back, smart man. Remember getting laid is primarily verbal.

Twitter's mission statement reads "to give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly without barriers." By this logic I guess Elon Musk's decision to give Trump back his account and reduce regulation falls in line with "everyone" having the power to share without barriers. This forum has a much more niche and explicit intention than Twitter seems to, so its understandable you moderate the way you do. At the end of that Netflix Documentary, they basically boiled down all of the problems with social media to not answering the question "what is truth?". You seem to have a fair grasp on the truth Leo, maybe you could moderate for Musk lol.

What are you doing for adrenal support?

Stay the fuck away from Chlorella. Chlorella is a chelating agent, it contains molecules that seem to bind to mercury molecules and begin to move them around the body. The issue with chlorella is that nobody knows how long it lasts in the body. It doesn't have a measurable half life at this stage, so when it binds to mercury, it could only last say three minutes, and then it will drop the mercury. ALA for example has I think a three hour half life, so the chelator molecule could bind to mercury that is say in your thigh, and then after three hours the molecule will basically dissipate, if you don't consume a fresh dose of ALA after that time, the mercury could travel from your thigh and be dropped in your brain (for example). That is why people say the ACC method is tedious, because you have to keep taking it every three hours, even when you sleep. Chlorella doesn't have a "half-life", and even if it did, you're probably not going to be taking the precise same dose each time so it is inconsistent and therefore dangerous.

Because they refuse to see that what they're complaining about can be changed, developed, accepted etc. Which makes their perspective fundamentally false. "I'm ugly..." - "go to the gym, get contacts, get haircut" "I have low self esteem" - "read a book on self esteem" "Girls don't like Asian guys" - "rsd Tyler is a balding ginger and gets laid"

Man... I wish you all the best, with this attitude your dating life will be full of hard lessons.

During the night, you can get away with it. My friends say the most crude stuff and its a wonder how they haven't been slapped. During the day a girl will run away from you or make a Tiktok about it.

I'm 21, moved out of home and am working as a disability support worker/babysitter for a few hours each day during the week. I socialise and try to do pickup probably four nights per week with one day of daygame. I've been visioning, reflecting on my purpose, not quite there yet but I'll make it happen. I've built some momentum doing yoga and eating fairly healthy, have a good supplement collection. Feeling energetic. I'm building a freelance marketing skillet in my own time. I'm surprised that little things seem to just sometimes workout, I quit one of my jobs then ended up earning more money at another one. I can't imagine moving back home now, I've got more responsibility to take on and conquer.

Dance floors are tricky. I've heard of people just dancing and having a good time, then opening a girl by saying something random like "these are my signature moves" to a girl, then keeping dancing, opening with a similar thing a minute or so later. Kino is probably better when it is super loud tbh, probably the one place in the world where heavy escalation is appropriate. Maybe look at some infield dance floor game.

Its up to you in the end. I don't like demonising people who want to be excellent in any area, whether that be nutrition or another... If trying to be perfect isn't the right move then you'll learn the hard way. Nutrigenomics would tell us it depends on how often your cells are inflamed as to the rate in which they return back to a healthy state. So if you were as clean as can be for a year and then had a bag of corn chips, your immune system would bounce back extremely quickly, but if you eat the chips everyday your immune system is probably working to fight foreign invaders around the clock.

I am 20, 6'1, and weigh 75kg. I want to get a bit leaner, and do calisthenics + Hatha yoga for exercise. My job is also very laborous and work close to full time. I did a calculator that determined 2126 calories is a good intake for me to lose 0.9% bodyweight per week. This seems pretty low to me.

Leo has cried in a fair few videos, ya boi says some inspiring stuff

Logistics will hinder your results, the most successful people have ideal logistics, its not a coincidence. Learn the kino escalation ladder. I've heard of people pulling girls to bathrooms at clubs, this sort of thing... never done it myself but see how you go with the creative solutions.

Does anyone actually have a concrete answer to this? Is anyone on here at least 2 year sober from junk food?

In theory, 3 months emergency savings (your expenses x3 months). Put money in an index fund. Invest in self help products.
