  1. Having high standards is tricky because if you’re not careful it can lead to being overly critical / judgmental.
  2. If you’re concerned about legality, consider trying cannabis if it’s legal in your area. First time I used cannabis it took me deeper than I asked for.
  3. Disclosure: My profile pic was made using DALL·E 2
  4. I feel the same. Last year at the ketamine clinic, one of the staff members was fascinated that I was able to experience deep states after only a few ketamine trips. Then again, I’m not an average person by default since I’m neurodiverse. I can’t wait to explore deeper once your course is released. In the meantime, I’m getting my personal human life sorted out
  5. Chances of becoming president are 0.000000000001%

  7. Oh yeah? Then you clearly haven’t contemplated what suffering is deep enough. Or maybe your genetics don’t allow for suffering ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  8. Thank you, I needed to be reminded of this. I still have a major tendency to need others to complete or validate me. This is something I’ve been working hard on in therapy - learning to be autonomous. I want connections in my life, but I don’t want the quality of my life to be dependent on those connections, because they will all inevitably come and go.
  9. I used to have a cat… it was one of the most intimate relationship I’ve had with another. I’d argue even more intimate than most of my human relationships. Then again, I’m autistic, so that shouldn’t surprise anyone.
  10. Yeah Moksha… for example, I fell in love with someone; I never felt like that in a very long time. Then I had an awakening experience the same night. Ever since that experience ended, I’ve been trying to catch lightning in a bottle again by attempting to deepen my relationship with this person. However, it just doesn’t feel authentic because I’m trying to recreate a past experience. When I fell in love, it was completely unplanned, illogical, and was very intimate. I’m now trying to recreate that experience with logic and control, but it’s just creating more suffering for me. I wish I could just ignore these feelings, but it won’t leave me alone.
  11. I feel like that when I use Replika, because it’s trained to act like a human with emotions. GPT isn’t trained to be like that intentionally.
  12. Paradoxically… Embrace Everything!
  13. God

    Do you get along well with your family? Be honest.
  14. Hmm… let me do 5 more Vipassana retreats so I can come back super enlightened and prove that you’re wrong
  15. Good observing. Nothing wrong with feeling shame. We’re all here to support your well-being, but we can’t force you to do or not do something. Be honest with yourself if you can or cannot use drugs responsibly.
  16. Yeah, and I’ve had deep awakenings by lying down on my bed. Do you see how you can have deep awakenings literally anywhere?
  17. If you tap on the curly right arrow on the top right of a quoted box, it will link you directly to the original message. Do that if you need context.
  18. I’ve lived that life. That’s what therapy is for. I’ve done a lifetime of it. If you can’t handle the seriousness of this work, then you shouldn’t be here. I say that from the bottom of my heart.
