No health problems.
But it destablized my life and psyche so much that I basically could not function. I was tripping balls 24/7 even after stopping it for a few days. I could not sleep because I was tripping balls in my sleep. And if I continued much longer I would be so awake that all of reality would just disappear.
I actually made plans to inform my family that I would disappear out of material reality. I told my ex-girlfriend my bank account numbers. She had to babysit me while I was about to dematerialize.
If you go that deep you have a good chance of killing yourself or losing your mind.

1) Just bite the bullet and go sober forever from now on. Learn to pump up your own state. This is doable.
2) Replace all that shit with DMT vape pen.
3) Combo of both, cycling.
I've never had a single drink while gaming. Never done cocaine although I've been offered it. Never done weed although I've been offered it. I've even been offered ketamine.
One of my wings goes to Zedd's after parties where they pass around trays of cocaine. But his morals are such that he doesn't do any drugs ever. And everyone there knows that. So when the cocaine tray is passed around the table they just skip over him out of respect. All you gotta do is set clear boundaries. If someone questions you why, you tell them it's against your morals.

Creating art is providing value. Just because your art goes unappreciated is another matter.
That you compare scummy crypto investors with Van Gogh is absurd.
No, that's according to your logic.
You are conflating Van Gogh's art with investing in gold. If all Van Gogh did was invest in gold you would have no idea who Van Gogh was.
It's your responsibility to find a way to provide value which other people appreciate.
There are many starving artists in the world. It is not enough to create art, you must create art which other people are willing to pay for. This makes your job twice as hard. And that's correct.
Here are the levels of making a living:
Level 1: Being a pure value leech
Level 2: Providing value but in a toxic way that harms others
Level 3: Providing value which doesn't harm others but also isn't art
Level 4: Doing art but no one is willing to pay well for it
Level 5: Doing art, providing massive value, and getting paid well for it
Reaching Level 5 requires some serious strategy and effort. It will not land in your lap.

No.
Think deeper about what money means.
To hold a $1 million dollars means that you can not work for several years while others serve you.
That is wage slavery. The slavery is baked directly into the dollars. The only reason a million dollars seems like a lot is because it means a dozen people are forced to serve you.
If wage slavery didn't exist your million dollars would not be worth so much.

It's parasitic because traders don't do any actual creative work, they leech off the labor of others in order to make easy money that would otherwise be impossible to make through creative labor.
See, when you take $1000 and turn it into $1,000,000 via BitCoin, you've just figured out how to turn a few teachers, farmers, and retail clerks into your wages slaves. That is literally what you are doing, but you've masked it as something else so you can sleep well at night.
That's the evil genius of Wall Street as a system. It gives legitimacy to professional thieves and parasites and allows them to sleep well at night as they pat each other on the back.
Thievery in the 21st century has gotten so advanced and sophisticated that even the thieves who spend their entire lives doing it have no awareness that they are in fact thieves -- giving them perfect plausible deniability.

Holding a drink in your hand is a negative. Now you got one less hand for physical escalation.
I never hold a drink in my hand. I try to even avoid getting free cups of water. You don't need it. It's all a distraction from approaching.
Don't even use the club toilet. Take a piss before you leave the house and once you return. Stop wasting your time on distractions. No one cares if you hold a drink or not. If they ask, you tell them that drinking is for people who have a stick up their ass, and keep on gaming that nothing matters.

1) Start getting excited for dates. Make them fun and playful and interesting.
2) Start by hugging her as soon as you see her, and then keep touching her throughout the night. Learn the Kino Escalation Ladder and practice it.
3) Bounce around to multiple locations. Walk and hold hands with her.
4) Kiss her half-way into the date, not at the end.
- - - -
Stop being a pussy and start making moves. The longer you delay the harder and more awkward it will get.
Your dates are boring because you are not in touch with your raw desire to fuck her. Look at her like a wolf looks at a rabbit. Stop suppressing your sexual desire and intent. Let her turn you on and then use that to turn her on. Dates are not interviews. Dates are there so you can fuck her. Let that guide you. Stop being polite and formal about it.
Nothing is happening because you are being too big of a pussy to lead it to your bedroom.
LEAD!
If she shows up to a date that means she is interested in sex with you. All you gotta do is lead and be fun.

Great work!
However, next time you open a girl, never ask for the date right off the bat. That's way too weird. You need to just chat to see if you like her first. Instead of saying you want a date, tell her you find her attractive and want to see if she's cool.
But anyways, you got super lucky and somehow by fluke luck your way worked.
Now that you have a date, play it cool. Don't fuck it up by getting too needy. The less you say to her before the date the better. Use texts to arrange location. Keep it simple.
Make sure the location you take her to has multiple locations to bounce around. Bounce her around as much as possible: cafe, stroll thru park, ice cream, park bench, shops, etc. Pick a large mall-like area with lots of places to go.
Hug her as soon as you meet her. Start touching her hands very early on. Start holding her hand and leading her early on. Lock eyes with her as much as possible. Kiss her half-way thru the date. DO NOT leave the kiss for the end. Find reasons to wrap your hands around her hips and move her hips around as you stand face go face with her. Make your first kiss very short, no tongue. Leave her craving more. Cut the kiss off before she can get enough.
At the end of the date take her to a place where you can make out. Ideally your couch, otherwise a park bench or in your car. As you make out, rub her body, squeeze her thighs, kiss her neck, grab her hair by the root. Lock eyes as deep and long as possible.
No sex for you. Just try to turn her on. Turn her on, then send her home.

@Radu97 We are in a globalized economy now. No one is gonna be conquering anyone. The big nations are all too deeply interconnected through trade and business. Empires are not sustainable and they will not fly. What's gonna happen is ever deeper globalization.
And the global economy is not going anywhere. It's perhaps the single most stable thing on this planet. It will bounce back no matter what because people gotta survive and survival is gonna happen via the global economy. You can't put that toothpaste back in the tube.
Simply put, humans have nowhere else to go. Short of a giant meteor strike, I don't see any end to it.
There will be downs turns and some crashes, but it will all bounce back stronger than ever if you are patient.

Not necessarily.
You need a urine test. The urine test is the only objective measure. You can't rely on negative side-effects. I have almost never felt any negative side effects from detox, but I benefited from it greatly and my urine was objectively toxic from the start.
By being lazy and cheap with the testing you end up costing yourself more in the end.
I also would not trust ALA by itself. You need DMSA too. It's crucial in my opinion.
Detox is a thing that needs to be done rigorously, not half-assed. By half-assing it you will not get clear results and soon quit. Detox is a long-term investment. It is not an effortless magic pill.

The point of being rich is having it be a reflection of how much value and love you provide the world.
Being rich comes naturally once you turn yourself into a massive value provider. Then your riches are not about taking from others but giving to others.
Give so much of yourself that you never have to worry about money again. That is my attitude.

To be on the safe side, I'd lower your starting dose to 1g.
Better to start low and go higher later than overshoot.
You have no idea what you're getting yourself into with psychedelics.
You don't need any books. Throw them away and focus on direct experience.

That is an acceptable texture and color.
Texture and color of 5-Meo-DMT can vary quite a bit. Depends on which lab made it. Depends on freebase vs HCl vs oxalate. But don't assume that all freebase or all HCl looks the same. There is still a lot of variety in texture and color. Some is like a very dry fine powder. Some is almost sticky and clumpy. Some is more crystal-like.
None of that matters so long as it's 98%+ pure 5-MeO-DMT. Which it probably is if it's 5-MeO-DMT at all. If a lab is capable of making 5-MeO-DMT at all, it doesn't cost them anything to make it 98% pure. There is little point in cutting research chemicals with junk. It's not cocaine or heroin which gets cut with junk by a long chain of middlemen to drive down costs. The research chemical industry doesn't work that way.
The biggest risk with research chemicals is if they accidentally give you the wrong substance simply due to mislabeling it.
5-MeO has a subtle distinctive smell you can learn to distinguish. This makes for a nice easy sniff test. It's not fool proof, but a good way to make sure it's on the right track.

Obviously turn your sex into a spiritual activity.
It can be a win-win.
Try mixing sex with psychedelics, if you dare to see how deep the rabbit hole goes

@LordFall Seems like your frustration is with the relationship, but it’s with your attachment to something to be happy. It’s because you think you need it that you’re frustrated. When you get the frustration, inquire into the I that is frustrated, you will see that each time you do this the suffering will disappear quicker.
Paradoxically, when you don’t need it to be happy (genuinely, not spitefully), she’ll be quite attracted. She might then become more aware of the inconsistency of her own happiness. If she does some work on it, she might discover connections like self worth or body image issues, and the low sex drive. 
Also, don’t overlook the simplicity of talking to eachother about it and expressing your emotions. Emotional suppression and blockage is a sex drive killer for woman that men often find it hard to relate to and understand - but if you do there’s a lot of growth in it for you.

@Aaron p The most important test is called Ehrlich. It mostly tests for psychedelic Indoles.
Those other tests are be useful too for filtering out other harmful agents (you don't want to find meth in your psychedelic), but you need a positive test for Indoles.
There is no test kit that's able to distinguish 5-MeO-DMT from other Indoles. And freebase vs HCl is not something you can test with a kit. The kit don't care.
Test kits are not to be fully trusted. Which is why you always want to test new substances with very small doses to verify your batch is what it claims to be.

So I quit porn, and i do no fap more or less... and i have now a very low libido and almost an erectile dysfunction... it still works and i can have sex but the erection is soft and so on... i read about the no fap flatline... but still i also read that this can be a problem amd that nofap is maby not the right thing to do? So, any tips? 
 
Againg is this normal aftwr quiting por and after quiting or lowering the amount of ,,faps"... 

Count how many times you wrote "me", "my", "I" in your post.
That's why.
You keep thinking you into existence. Stop thinking about yourself and you will cease to exist.
"You" can't get enlightened. Enlightenment is the end of you-ing.
This problem requires extreme mindfulness. Watch for I-thoughts like a hawk and deconstruct them or let them go.
It needs to become clear that the self is a conceptual fabrication, not a physical object. And this needs to be seen deeper than at the level of thinking about it.

It's as healthy as you make it.
Health is never in the thing, but in how you use it.
Sex can be unhealthy too. Anything in the hands of a fool can become unhealthy.
Practice masturbating consciously, like a sage

What??
Lol
You guys have become too brainwashed by the no-fap people.
Proper masturbation is an artform!
All sex is masturbation, BTW. No matter what, you're always having sex with none other than yourself.
Life is just God's masturbatorium.

I have never been a fan of the whole no-fap movement.
Fap serves a useful function when used properly. Running around like a horny dog is problematic.
If you do no-fap, it has to be done in a non-repressive way and for some good reasons, like maybe if you're getting into serious pickup or yoga.

@StardewValley Sounds like a shadow issue.
In other words, the reason you are angry at them is because you have actually disowned this meat-eater part of yourself. You've told yourself it it wrong, but this was really a denial rather than a genuine transcendence.
Contemplate with a journal how you have disowned this part of yourself and created an identity around being a moralistic non-meat-eater.
What is your ego getting out of hating meat-eaters? It's getting something! There's some secret payoff.
Meditation actually tends to not resolve shadow issues. You need to contemplate, not meditate this issue.

A few pointers for you guys:
1) This question of whether oxygen is being increased or decreased is really irrelevant. Don't get hung up on that. What matters is if you feel the technique working for you. If you feel like it is harming you, then don't do it. For me, it feels healing. Obviously people can have all sorts of health conditions which might make this technique inappropriate, in the same way that running 2 miles on a treadmill is inappropriate for many people. But for most healthy people, it is healing.
Medical doctors and academics can say all sorts of things. But the proof is in the actual doing of the technique. Do not listen to people who have not actually done the technique. Spiritual techniques tend to be hardcore. They can also be counter-intuitive, breaking conventional medical, physiological, and materialist paradigms. Case in point: most medical researchers still do not understand psychedelics for example, so don't expect them to understand a technique like shamanic breathing.
With naive thinking, a doctor could easily classify running a marathon as unhealthy and physically dangerous, pointing to isolated factors like: "There is less oxygen in the blood than normal" or "There is more CO2 than average", "The muscles are producing lactic acid which is damaging to the body", "The heart beat is near heart attack levels", "The body temperature is near fever levels", "Dehydration is too high", "The immune system is under great stress", etc. This doesn't say much. Normality is no sign of health, and doctors usually just parrot whatever medical ideology they are subscribed to. They have zero spiritual understanding. Their understanding of human physiology is materialistic, crude, and linear. They have no sense of the subtle, energetic, psycho-somatic, or metaphysical aspects of human physiology.
2) Don't fall into the trap of mistaking difficult emotional and physical sensations as "negative" or a sign of physical damage. It's very easy for a noob to misinterpret muscle burn at the gym as a sign of physical damage, for example. A little bit of pain can make the ego come up with all sorts of excuses. Your shadow and emotional trauma are wired deep into your mind, brain, and body. Releasing this deep trauma can feel painful, uncomfortable, difficult, scary, etc. Negative emotions arising is a sign of HEALTH, not sickness. It means the technique is working just as it should. This is called spiritual purification, and any serious spiritual technique has the potential to release very deep, painful, and scary thoughts and emotions. Facing your own lies, delusions, and ego-death is not rainbows and butterflies. With that said, you need to learn to intuit how much spiritual purification you can handle at a time. Going overboard is not good. Make sure you only bite off as much as you can chew.
3) If 30 minutes of this techniques brings up a lot of physical challenges, pain, and emotions in you, then all that probably means is: you have a lot of emotional baggage to work through. For me, for example, 30 minutes of this technique feels intense, but there is no negativity, no pain, and little emotional baggage arising. For me, 30 minutes feels rejuvenating and empowering. It feels like an intense workout. Perhaps akin to running a marathon.
4) Don't judge a spiritual technique unless you've actually done it with an open mind.
5) Keep in mind, the ego is very sneaky. Any technique which directly threatens it, it will tend to demonize and reject. This is true of psychedelics and many other radical methods.
6) The more effective a spiritual technique is, the more challenging it will be, and the less your ego will want to do it.
7) Use common sense. Don't hurt yourself. Search your heart for whether this is healing or hurting you. As an example, after an intense workout at the gym, you should have a sense of whether you hurt yourself or strengthened yourself with that session.
I am no doctor and this is not medical advice. You are 100% responsible for your own well-being. I like to practice hardcore and experimental techniques which may not be suitable for certain people. If you want to be 100% safe, then stick to 100% conventional materialist techniques (which basically means: no spirituality for you).
Spirituality always involves some degree of danger and risk. You have to determine for yourself what you are comfortable with and how deep you're willing to go. If you think that meditation or yoga cannot get as intense as shamanic breathing, that's just because you've haven't really experienced hardcore meditation or yoga yet. And certainly this shamanic breathing is peanuts compared to a deep psychedelic session. I've done psychedelic sessions in which I've physically died. Good luck explaining that to a doctor.
FYI, any technique that can produce ego-death or awakening is capable of eliciting in you deep fear and powerful emotions. Because are are literally facing your own death. That is no small thing.
Spirituality takes courage, but also intelligence. Be fearless, but also don't do anything stupid like physically harming yourself.
You can call it hyperventilation if you want. But then by that logic you can also call awakening insanity. So what? You could also call weightlifting: tearing of your muscles. And you could call sex: exposure of your immune system to foreign diseases. And you could call eating a slice of pizza: ingesting cancer-causing poison.

He could have had those foods to help with the retreat in some way.
I dont really understand stick-in-ass veganism. Just like smoking a cigar once in a year dont turn you into smoker, why is there such a stigma inside and outside vegetarian/vegan community that committing to the ideology 100% and never breaking it?
"Oh he ate meat! So he is not vegan loololol"
Im planning to move into vegetarian diet, and if i do i will allow myself to eat meat in such situations like if my friend is offering food he/she prepared. If i can cure whatever negative things 25 years of eating empty calories and meat has done to me in 3 months, then surely i can eat meat once a week and not immediatly turn into a sluggish loser

I've done over 30 trips. I have not noticed any improvements of the mind per se.
I've gotten tons of insights. I've gotten lots of emotional growth. I've gotten a deconstruction of my conceptual matrix. I've gotten crazy depths of consciousness. I've gotten massive openmindedness. But no baseline improvement of memory or things like that.
Yoga, visualization, contemplation, concentration exercises will have a better chance of improving your mind vs psychedelics.
If you have memory problems, perhaps look into vitamins or nootropics and clean up your diet.
