Coming off acid for the first time, was pretty good. What fourth of july drugs did you take user

list psychedellic revelations

-reality is a closed box
-I'm never going to know anything
-I love my dog
-Every moment may be infinitely intriguing if you pay attention
-I love mexico
-I probably have adhd
-Life is a dance, and living well is a matter of having rhythm

- time doesn't necessarily exist, we are just convinced it does because we cant perceive outside of our linear lives
- billions of years of interconnected events have methodically and tediously come to produce the current state of reality and everything you do is something you were meant to do
- anyone can be the next jesus christ
- everything happens in cubes
- road to el dorado is a great movie

>anyone can be the next jesus christ
but how?

Be careful that these thoughts don't develop into depression or any other mental illnesses. I was in a similar boat to you; post-acid trip, lots of little philosophical thoughts and muses, now I'm basically depressed nihilist with no future.

Probably have to embody the teachings, meditate correctly and be an all around good person

Yeah user I was honestly getting to that point but recently I've started to fix things. Working out, eating healthier and focusing less on vidya etc. Hopefully i can keep it up

by being the next christ do you mean the literal son of god or just an historically important religious figure?

Was already depressed and I study philosophy. I'm not existentially vulnerable, and acid has brought a tremendous light to my life. It's an extremely positive experience and even when I realize a negative thing it only brings relief

not user you were talking to.

my interpretation is this; you attain a state of consciousness that christ himself had done..., one of peace and goodwill, one of self sacrifice and subservience to others. It is not a hard state to attain, though sustaining it is difficult and many people do not understand it (they aren't "woke" enough)

>high crime level in the region
>good odds of meeting mafia/maniacs/other criminals
>good odds of meeting a predator
>can't own guns unless you're a registered hunter with training
>get called beta in a condescending way

it takes some serious levels of woke to get to that stage. most people on Jow Forums stop at "muh JEWS"

I mean that humanity is essentially the 'son' of god and that all of us have the potential to achieve what he did. Whether you interpret that as acquiring that state of consciousness like the user above or just being a good person and saving various lives along the way

ive just been smoking gas but how much ug did you take? im afraid of taking x or acid because trippy drugs have been making me anxious lately

That's good to hear dude. Wish my experiences with the substance were more positive, but I guess I drew the short straw.

Nice man. I go in and out of stages were it gets better then I just crash and sink rock bottom. Any tips for a drifter such as myself on this lonesome trail would much appreciated, stranger.

not user you were speaking to.

incremental progress.
start small with small improvements.
tidy your room. brush your teeth.
eventually it accumulates and the effort seems less like effort, so you can take on more burden.

also, read meditations by marcus aurelius because stoicism helps a bunch. Taught me that life is just accumulated suffering that I should bear with a smile.

Realistically, I don't have it as bad as 99% of the world, and so that helps too.

As much of a meme as it sounds, I think a lot of it has to do with centering yourself in the current moment. Think about it, it is and has always been right now. You can go to sleep and wake up and it will still be right now, just tomorrow. The key is to stay in awareness of the moment and focus on what you're doing in it. It's easy to kinda turn your brain off and go autopilot and that autopilot mode can turn into some rough decisions and situations. I'm sorry if this sounds vague

im basically tripping all the time
ive left the human dimension
people think im brain dead but i bet if you were to give me an fmri scan you would see tremendous activity
lately ive been stuck on the concept of solipsism
any psychonauts think much about solipsism while tripping?

Yeah i think everyone who's tripped a few times has come across that concept. That would mean everyone else including me is an npc though, are u ok with that?

it would disturb me in some ways, but excite me in others

Nah dude, you're definitely making sense. Not vague at all. Always feel at my worst when I just turn my brain off and go into vidya mode or whatever. I think it's a big issue, especially since technology, which is incredibly pervasive at this point, sort of puts us in that state when overused.

I kind of feel like my issue is keeping up with these small improvements. I can kinda do something for a little while then everything I was working towards collapses and I go back to that shut-off state. Somewhat familiar with stoicism. I'll check out Aurelius, thanks for the recommendation

And that's how people on acid delude themselves into killing other people user. You're heading down a destructive path, it's important to have an open mind but that doesn't mean accept anything intellectually inticing as fact

I've kinda got to a point where vidya is getting less and less appealing to me, so that helps.
A lot of it is just making a point to keep doing it. I'd say if you can keep it up for 2 weeks, then you're likely to keep doing it. But the tough part is sticking with it, so you gotta do whatever you can to stick with it. Reminders, notes to yourself, etc, all help

Yeah fair enough. Hopefully I get to that point where vidya becomes unappealing as well. Thanks again user, good luck with wherever life takes you

Same to you user, I'm rooting for ya
