My mind is set. I'll never ingest any psychedelics, seen what they do.
That is perhaps for the best. These other people telling you they are totally fine have probably not seen what happens to someone who took them who never should have.
I value every trip I took, they made me a better person, but my mum literally had one of her friends jump out a window on acid in the 70s. I always thought that shit was an urban myth.
Here in my island we have rankings on which municipality has the most cases of people throwing themselves off balconies. https://www.balcon.ing/
Sorry could you elaborate?
Shrooms and most if not all psychedelics are non addictive, and you develop a tolerance fast enough that habitual use isn't feasible.
I'm curious to hear about what you've seen.
Human condition and individual reaction to psychedelic substance are a huge spectrum. Even if you and your friends and friends of their friends are ok, there are legitimate evidence of psychoactive substance causing harm. Lots and lots of it.
It's irresponsible to give a blanket "ye'll be grand", or worse saying it's not possible. If it's itching to tell your story, tell it but just wrap it in your opinion and zip at that.
I didn't say he'd be grand and I don't have a story to tell.
I just found the original statement about psychedelics curious since all the mainstream ones aren't even considered addictive.
I don't suggest people take psychedelics, because it can be dangerous, obviously.
But saying you would never take psychedelics because you're afraid of getting addicted seems weird since it's literally the least dangerous thing about them (them as in LSD, Psilocybin, DMT).
Good for him for staying away from drugs, hopefully he meant alcohol as well!
I grew up in a cheap tourism town where hearing that someone died thanks to substance abuse was nearly a daily occurrence. Paired with my already stated easily addicted personality. I've made the choice not to want any drugs on my life
