      Tell Jay that he didn't experience the full effects of LSD exposure from your trap because the Lexapro chemical and its vast buildup in the brain very seriously renders many of the most common, and most commonly exploited, neurotransmitter levels, functions, and junction activities very closely controlled and essentially inert.
      A standard dose of psychedelics / hallucinagens for individuals recently exposed to antidepressants in even small quantities (let alone large ones like with Jay's chronic buildup) is almost always completely or partially disaffected and completely powerless and useless.
      Similar effects of blockages are common with the chemicals found in "molly" (i.e. MDMA, MDA, MDMC, etc.) So Jay inherently requires more Molly to adjust his neurotransmitter ratio such that he approaches the effects of empathogens or entactogens. And he never experiences the full effects; hence his desire to use compulsively and his ability to avoid or recover from the post-session depression and brain drain.
      Ultimately, you could call this Lexapro impairment a shield. Or you could call it a waste of fun with chemicals. You decide.

The takeaway is that you have a world-class professional, as well as recreational, Neuropsychology and Biochemistry professor and doctor in your corner, and your content is definitely funny. Keep up with the good times Ari; hopefully our paths will cross soon. I'll think about bringing... Er, "showing" you "info on" some exotic samples. Only if you're interested, of course.
      Until then... Xanax, Valium, Methadone, and Fentanyl to feel better and have fun; Soma to relax the muscles; a bit of Adderall and Dexedrine to go to sleep (yes this is the correct order); and a few more secrets to keep me busy.…

      @@sephiroth2847 While true, he talks about dropping mushrooms with Luis and Dave before he was on Anti-Depressants, having no effects. He also uses molly regularly while on AD and it works (MDMA is dulled by AD also). People are effected diffrently by diffrent drugs, e.g. I've never had visual effects on halluciogens, only auditory.

    Ive been getting really bad anxiety lately for the first time in my life. Im 38 years old and never had any issues. Now especially when im at the grocery store i kinda start to freak out in my own head. Its really weird. It feels like im getting a adrenaline rush out of nowhere. My freiends and family tell me to go see a Dr. And take antidepressants. But im not depressed and dont wanna get on some kinda drug. I feel really helpless which i think is making it worse. Nice to get this off my chest.

    The Alien movie was Alien Resurrection. I think it's from '97. Came at a time of effects really enhancing movies. The last alien monster in it really freaked me out as a kid.

    You know what really helps with anxiety. Not doing drugs... I find (not judging anyone) The worst anxiety you'll get is xanax leaving your body. Only liquor withdrawal and benzo withdrawal can kill you...

    39:00 I went through the same thing. Severe chest pains, heart palpitations, shortness of breath, struggling to sleep which led to regular GP visits, ECG exams, etc. It's interesting how stress/anxiety/depression (psychological) can lead to some many physiological symptoms.

    The weird way that Jay described being alone as a kid is exactly what I was like as a kid. I would have to leave the door open slightly with the hall light on, so I knew people were there. Huge crybaby and couldnt watch scary stuff if no one was around me. Then weird chest pain and headaches starting for me a few months ago that came after a really gnarly cocaine hangover. No bad thoughts at all then suddenly your heart starts racing and panic washes over you...
    I have recently quit cocaine for good. It really helps to know there are other people who share similar experiences with anxiety.
