Enlightenment work and benzos

[Chris365]

I used to take valium (diazepam) on and off for years. Might have 2-3 week break sometimes. Now I gave it up for the last 6 months.
Researching online where to get psychedelics, I found a source for RC benzos.

I have some nights (maybe 1/month) where I cannot sleep at all.

Are benzos problematic for spiritual work, or can they be used sparingly (i.e. 1-3x/month)

Will upping the 5Meo dose fix everything?

I have a feeling 5meo  helps a shitton of stuff

Any drug that lower your state of consciousness like benzos, alcohol ...etc will make enlightment work more difficult. It just going to take you more time to get there. That´s why I would say minimize any substance like that in your life until you really need it or are in a very bad place in your life.

Only you know if you can handle your use, but I would advice you to better don´t do benzos at all and try to have an habit of  exercising to sleep well.
