Let's talk drugs! I've heard a lot of mixed takes on marijuana and psilocybin, and wanted to share my own recent experiences. ๐Ÿ˜„

I never touched any drugs, besides alcohol/caffeine/sugar, until my 40s. I prefer to not be impaired or dependent, which is why I quit alcohol and caffeine a few years ago. Now that my kids are living on their own, and I'm retired, I find myself wanting to experience more things in life.

So I decided to try THC & psilocybin.

I can see why people are split on weed. Productivity can go way up or down, depending on the person, the mood, etc. I find it to be fun, but definitely not something I want to partake in regularly. I get way too retarded! ๐Ÿ˜‚

I won't smoke or vape, so I stick with a tiny dose from a tincture. The high can last 6-8 hours in my system, which is a very long time for a small dose. Not something I want to deal with on the regular.

I'm very logical, almost to a fault. Psychedelics never sounded like a good idea, but I decided to try psilocybin recently. I was anxious about what would happen, but I put some music on, closed my eyes, and relaxed.๐ŸŽถ

With psilocybin, I feel like I'm tapping into a part of my brain that I rarely use. My logical thought process is still present, but my creative side takes control. I get deeply introspective. I start writing a lot.

I'm already a huge music lover, but my appreciation for it reached new heights. I experience seeing the sounds. I can fully appreciate the space between chaos and order where music lives. The more instruments the better, which is why I find orchestra music to be the absolute best with psilocybin.

It's an incredible experience that I walk away from knowing myself a little better. The writing is my favorite part, as I'm able to go back and reflect on my thoughts during the experience. To my surprise, it isn't a rambling mess! It's thoughtful, emotional, and honest. I'll even share with others who I directly write about. It's an extremely therapeutic process.

Again, I'm glad I never tried any of these mind altering substances until later in life. Being a fully developed human, and having a better understanding of myself, helps make these experiences stable and beneficial. In my youth, when my self control was worse, I could have ended up going down a dark path if I tried drugs. I'd likely be a very different person today.

I will always prefer to remain sober the overwhelming majority of the time, but I can see the pros & cons of altering your mind. Under the right circumstances, of course! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ‘

I think I'll try mushrooms

Where do you buy them from?

Why t f is it so hard to move into the country?

My great grandparents worked and saved as hard as they could to move from the farm to the suburbs,

Now I have to work my ass off in a 9-5 just to get back to the country

WTF!!!

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!! #GROWNOSTR #RANT

Not to mention

Marriage counseling ๐Ÿ™‹, premarital counseling๐Ÿ™‹, free wedding services๐Ÿ™‹, community lunch ,๐Ÿ™‹, fresh food pantry ๐Ÿ™‹, kids camps, men and womens retreats ๐Ÿ™‹, extracurriculars for teenagers, sports, full library services, computers and printers ๐Ÿ™‹ free bibles๐Ÿ™‹, funding mental health therapy ๐Ÿ™‹, funding medical problems๐Ÿ™‹, helping single moms with their bills, free daycare ๐Ÿ™‹, paying rent for widows, full service care for orphans

But let's not talk about that

Let's just post some low class, short attention span memes to get a reaction and a couple zaps, lmao!

Because they have to keep the lights on, water, heat, clean, upgrade the infrastructure, run free community programs, food pantries, pay the employees, fund the missionaries, fund the school (in our case)

You know, just like literally any other institution
