@thisintegrated Heard about it. Though only in conjunction with meds and it also seems pretty heavy duty when done right. What is/was your experience with it? That's the spirit!

Could you explain a bit how you work with it? I've noticed that there is always this sexual flavor in the background with LSD but I've never really delved into it.

Thanks guys! The plan I had in my head was to keep as much hair as possible for 1-2 years and then settle down and stop caring about it. I guess that's attachment in action lol. A transplant sounds like a nightmare. @Leo Gura out of curiosity: Did you look into Finasteride and the like? If so, did you try it or why not?

Good stuff, ty! Never tried #4 though... 20-30 ug LSD is also great for partying in general.

@Leo Gura is there something you do to put yourself into an emotional, fun mood? Other than shit talking with wings and approaching (asking mainly for daygame).

@aurum got it ?

Hey guys, I've noticed quite a few of other guys doing day game in my city. My wing said he got the comment a couple times over the last week that girls have been approached multiple times. I know it's mental to large degree and I'm still approaching, but it's getting to my head tbh. There a aprox. 600.000 people in my city. To the more experienced guys: What's your assessment on that? Cheers!

@aurum makes sense. It's probably just a mental thing. Back in the summer I also noticed other guys but I didn't care bc. I was in the mental frame of being the baddest dude on the block lol. Gotta get back to that... WW3 has been getting me down a bit. Is there any point you'd consider moving to greener pastures?

Hey guys (and gals), after my last trip I hit a very enjoyable upswing in life. I started to get my dating life back on the rails, worked on new art and even looked into getting a nice apartment. However over the last week or so I've just felt down. Like joy, hope and happiness are sucked out of life. I've tried just feeling the feeling but it persists and the thoughts that come up along side it are self defeating. When I felt down in the past it usually passed quickly as I'm generally a positive dude, but this seems more persistent. Any good ideas or resources on how to handle that? Cheers!

@Loba Love feels a bit hard to reach or give at the moment. Gonna give that song and meditation a go though. Thanks! @PurpleTree No new supps just my usual stack.

@Wilhelm44 I feel like my heart isn't in it, to be honest. The feeling of "down" reflects itself in my actions. @ChrisZoZo Thanks, will look into that!

@ChrisZoZo thanks for the reply! I work out 5 times/week plus 1-2 long distance runs. My diet is clean (organic, whole foods) and I do not take MDMA (only LSD, twice in the last 5 months or so). I'm planning a heavy metal detox soon, so I can't speak on that. Due to the change being quite abrupt I don't think that's it. Meditation is daily in addition to Wim Hof + cold shower in the mornings.

@Baum need to mull it over myself, sorry. @EntheogenTruthSeeker cheers mate, slept 12 hours and feel a lot better! @Juressic showers are amazing on acid haha

Man, that really hurt. Took it upon waking. Then cleaned my apartment to bridge the come up. It came on way too fast and way too strong. 20 minutes to take off at most. I wasn’t able to settle myself. Construction noises all around my room. Had to put on some Beethoven which calmed me down. Killed the vibe though. My heart just wasn’t in it and couldn’t get back on it. My mind wanted this trip bad but my being didn’t seem ready. Ouch. Writing this to get some kind of closure. Probably gonna take a while. Sorry to disappoint if you expected a grand tale. This is how it went.

Check out Mike Chang's flow training. He used to run Sixpack Shortcuts before it fell apart and he had a spiritual awakening (don't know which came first lol). I highly doubt it'll get you enlightened but it integrates mobility, stretching, strength and breathing/meditation. I've been doing it for about two years now instead of going to the gym (though I do the breathing after taking a cold shower and I don't do a lot of stretching). Here is the full routine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zE0yb5Hot8&ab_channel=MikeChang

Man, I hate LSD. Felt like a four hour come up. Thought about calling it a day and returning next week with a higher dose. Alas, the trip didn’t even start lol. Man, I love LSD. The insights were pure gold. Gotta admit, the last months were pretty bumpy for me. Main thing I struggled with was the notion that I needed to „practice“ so my LP can „make progress“. By this way of living I created two points of myself. Point one is right here struggling and point two is somewhere off in the future. Truth is, there is only one point. I am already where I (don't) want to be. There is no need for practice, purification, hard work or any other form of Tit for Tat. What is needed is the act of creating itself. On and onwards. You could call that practice lol. Though I do not like this phrase anymore. Such a relief. Another thing I did not understand was the World at large. Do I live in a world that rejects me, conspires against me and keeps me down? Or does the world conspire in my favor? The truth of the matter is: I create (and thusly decide) it. Every day and in every single way. I am creating this moment. Right here, right now. Further, this exact moment is perfect. As in *Perfection*. So what is the highest purpose for creation? For the longest time I thought art was a way of communication, that it’s about "the other". To remind someone else of something or to transfer a state of being. All nonsense. The highest form of creation is creation for the sake of creation, created in a completely surrendered state for the Love of Creation itself. That’s what Art is. There is no need for an invented purpose. There is nobody whom I could communicate something to. It is completely „self“-serving. What serves me is what serves others. What serves others is what serves me. Listen to Beethoven. I did so today for the first time (voluntarily). That’s someone creating on the cutting edge of Creation itself. Here a couple reminders I wrote down for myself: Do or don’t but don’t "try" or "wait". What world do I choose to create today? I'm waiting for the perfect idea. The perfect idea is coming. Practice, hard work, purification - create Hope you enjoyed! P.S. Extensive studies have concluded that homemade banana bread is the perfect form of sustenance for extended voyages into the psychedelic realm. Just wanted to let you know.

#1 When I first moved out someone called me and asked if my computer was running slower than usual, said he was from Microsoft. he installed some malware on my laptop via Teamview and made me transfer him a couple hundred bucks. If I had a credit card at that time it would've been much more. #2 Someone from my internet provider called me and said I had a free speed upgrade, he even had my customer ID. I said cool, he proceeded to put a TV cable on my account doubling my monthly bill. Was a pain in the ass to get that money back but I did (unlike #1). Lessons learned: Don't trust anyone on the phone... and when they offer you something free/cheap tell them to fuck right off.

@kinesin That's a good point. Was just wondering if anybody had direct experience regarding this.

Hey guys, have any of you tripped after being vaccinated and/or do you consider it safe to do so? My first shot was two weeks ago, I've had no side effects and feel completely normal. I can't see any reason why it would be dangerous to trip but then again I'm no chemist and I don't have a degree in potentially harmful spike proteins. In case it matters: The vaccine was BionTech and the substance in question is LSD. Thanks!

I got my first BionTech shot on Saturday. Arm was a bit red and sore. And on the day after I felt a bit foggy. Other than that, all good. A colleague of mine said, she became nauseous for a day after getting hers. For anyone who has/had fear of needles (like me) I can only recommend it. Last time I got vaccinated I passed out afterwards lol. This time I almost didn't feel the needle at all.

Great thread idea! I'm always looking for examples along the same lines. Here are some that I found/resonate with. 1. Rashad Evans (ex mma fighter): 2. Paul Stamets: 3. Wim Hof: 4. Bill Hicks (comedian). Video quality is shit but the dude is legit: There are also some movie examples but they're not on top of mind atm.

@The0Self Intense and long lasting for sure.

Past, future and present are one. Trauma is not in the past. Nothing happened to me in the past, where it is hard to reach. It happens right now. Mind and body are one. The body is not fucked up. It is but my mind. This is how I carry trauma - my mind - around. As both these things were realized, mind began to unravel. Body moved in ways unbeknownst to me since childhood. Sounds came to mind that I once made up. Scents came back. Visions. Over and over again. Trying to actively love what arises was not possible. Giving it space - however - brought sacred silence with it. But why am I doing this? But, but, but? Because of Truth. Not to get something „out of it“. Not to „produce“ good art. For Truth. As Truth and Love are indeed one. Silence. --- This is still a developing story.

Aubrey Marcus would be awesome. Pretty much the only one I listen to on the regular. Explores deep topics, the host has a lot of experience with the ol' plant medicines and it's a chill vibe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pS_0ejRBi4&ab_channel=AubreyMarcus

@BlackMaze It's kinda hard to think back exactly how I felt a year ago. However, I def. have more energy and am more relaxed day to day.
