Journaling can be therapeutic, but it's not a therapy. From my experience, inner child dialogue which can be very powerful. It's a form of journaling. Combined with a few other things it can make miracles in your life.

@Davino I'm not sure if I understand what you mean. Quit what? You can continue to self-actualize without this forum. If something no longer serves you, it's natural to leave it behind. By saying this, I'm not encouraging anyone to leave, I'm just unsure of what you're referring to.

@Butters As you previously described your situation with your father (if I remember correctly), he seems very emotionally immature. Chasing the love that you never got from him when you needed it most is a sign that you still haven't gone through your grief. I'm sorry to say this, but there is probably no way you will ever reach any depth with him. Maybe moving on is the best option, and working on the wound it caused you, as there's always a possibility that you'll search for that kind of unfulfilled love in others, which might lead to a few toxic relationships.

Maybe it's just a phase where everyone is at their own stage of wondering, "What am I doing with my life?" But everyone approaches it differently, partly due to the age gap. I also think that's natural.

@Davino great post! I’ve been thinking the same. And I want to add to this: Only a few seem to be doing the real work, while others just echo Leo's words or throw around big names and ideas to impress - basically pulling info out of their ass. I even wanted my account deleted because such things make me want to vomit. Then I had a unexpectedly heavy trip and realized, there’s nowhere else to tell about this, because, well, there’s literally no one else but me! 😂 How could anyone else understand this? So, I stayed. But your points about AI are spot on!

I would show him the miserable, war-torn Balkans, collect a few shrapnel from the walls of houses people are still living in, and make a senseless attempt to explain why humans waste invaluable resources on war. Oh, and why people there call their daughters 'my son'.

Man, I just love the warmth and compassion in your responses <3

A healthy romantic relationship doesn't require excessive energy to sustain. Having someone who loves and cares about you is incredible and can boost your efforts toward achieving your goals in life. Suppressing or "transcending" your natural sexual needs is misguided. Why would you want to do that? It's true that attachment isn't love, but that doesn't mean every relationship is just attachment. A healthy relationship exists when both people can live without each other, but choose to be together.

Awesome! Let us know how it goes.

With MALT, you can gradually increase the dose to reach a breakthrough. In contrast, 5-MeO-DMT either causes a breakthrough or not. Both can be super-intense at the right dose

Yes, sounds epic, but my current adventure level is already set to "extreme".

Probably 5-MeO-DMT, since it acts within a few seconds when vaporized, and the savagery it provides during the come-up is unparalleled. I sadly never got the chance to experience it by plugging.

I never got why people give 5-MeO-MALT these soft, feminine labels. At high doses, MALT tears you apart piece by piece until there's nothing left. 5-MeO-DMT, on the other hand, hits like a freight train - quick and unforgiving. In the end, both have the same vibe and will crush your ego hard when you hit the right dose.

Hi @jacknine119 If you were to ask me for advice on the root of your problem, I’d suggest giving ChatGPT a detailed rundown of your psychological condition. Let it help diagnose you and recommend five books that specifically address those issues. I don’t mean to sound harsh, but based on a few of your posts, it seems like you’re not fully aware of your deepest problems, which is why you're unable to work directly on them. You need to become an expert on your own psychology, weaknesses, and shadows.

I have a girl-friend who has been into me for a long time, and she’s bisexual. She told me that if we were together, she would even be open to bringing other girls into the relationship and wouldn't mind at all. Maybe you should set a goal for finding someone like that? Just make sure it aligns with your values.

Update on My Healing Journey This past week has been transformative for me. During my bike rides to work, I’ve experienced moments of pure joy and even an infinite, psychedelic-like feeling. Completely drug-free. It’s as if I’m unlocking new levels of happiness that I didn’t know existed. My connection with people has improved, my relationships feel much healthier, and my emotional self-control has reached new heights. Even occasional sadness now feels stunningly amazing. I’ve also finally found the source of my brain fog and lethargy, allowing me to do amazing weight training without any pre-workouts. Despite my car being damaged in a costly traffic accident and going through the worst belly pain of my life a few days ago, I’ve kept my balance. As Aerosmith says, "Sing with me, sing for the year, sing for the laughter, sing for the tear. Sing with me, if it's just for today, maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away." That’s exactly what I’m doing - grateful for these breakthroughs and the progress!

I’ve decided to start a public journal here, not just to share my experiences but to document my journey of self-discovery and healing. My first post isn’t merely a trip report; it’s a deep dive into the layers of my psyche, exploring how my past, traumas, and inner work are shaping the person I’m becoming. I’m here to be honest, vulnerable, and to share the lessons I’m learning along the way. Let this be a space where we can all reflect, grow, and support each other on our paths. Feel free to comment if anything resonates with you or touches you in some way. Thank you for taking the time to read.

Overdoing it can definitely harm your life. I believe that's what OP is highlighting.

@jacknine119 Dude, I had this whole plan for some deep emotional work today, but I just couldn’t stop laughing at your post title. "Help me!! I am horny" ... man, you made it look so serious, yet I kept imagining you standing there, deadpan, with a big banana in your pants. Honestly, you made my day! Now, on a serious note: Listen, you don’t need to go hardcore with no-fap or other extremes. You’re a young guy with a high libido,and that’s totally normal. Yeah, your brain might wander to wild scenarios like banging your sexy aunt and maybe some other female family members eventualy join.. .. hey, no judgment here, our brains can be weird places sometimes. Especialy for those of us who have infinite libido. By the way, I invested 2 quadrillion euros into a Teal Swan course hoping to work through some heavy stuff, but man, after reading your post, I couldn’t stop laughing. So thanks for that! Seriously though, maybe try cutting down to once or twice a week. Once you find purpose or get busy with life, you’ll have less time and energy for it anyway. And yeah, getting a real woman in your life would help big time. Maybe try journaling about what’s holding you back from that and take small steps to overcome it. You’ve got this, my man!

Yes, he was an amazing human being. I have read all of his books and also did a few of his audio programs.

I will just lay here and take the shape of this random object. Dafuq you looking at, human?

This porridge looks really good! The oat milk and peanut butter already give it some nice sweetness, and you’ve got plenty of healthy stuff in there. I agree with Michael, adding some fruit like berries or banana would make it even better. It would add some fresh flavor and extra vitamins. You are off to a great start!
