Have you ever tried/ wanted to try psychedelics for medical/recreational purposes? Would love to hear your experiences if so!
I’ve thought about it to treat my recurring depression, but I’ve heard they shouldn’t be taken with anti-depressants & I’m wary of them.
Would like to, but unsure if the benefits outweigh the risks for me, or what exactly the risks are.
I’ve tried LSD once, and psilocybin twice.
The former is definitely more user-friendly, but I preferred the experience of the later. Imagine the difference between eating a gummy candy vs trying to mask the taste of chewy, foul-tasting fungi by mixing them into a Taco Bell burrito. I had a wicked bad tummy ache for the first 10% of my trip, but the remaining 90% was an emotional watershed for me (on top of it being an awesome day-long experience). I pretty much just laid in bed the whole time, but experienced all of existence. I felt so much better emotionally for months after.
My little gummy bear was an interesting experience in the moment, but it didn’t have any noticeable, lasting benefits after.
Side note: it was so cool discovering Together Pangea during my fungus adventure. Seeing the album artwork for Badillac was so visually interesting at the time, and following that up with the music video for Cat Man was amazing.
Props to Oregon for their steps to help advance these treatments.
I've done a good few psilocybin trips, and found them to be an opening experience. I prefer to do it alone and focus on a issue to self reflect on. IME it has no unique benefit, but has likely catalysed my brain accepting a new way of functioning (less negative and anxious). However, I could probably have achieved the same effect with more time whilst sober, and cannabis use had temporarily increased my depersonalisation and its likely psilocybin did too.
I have tried MDMA once (80mg) and taken 1V-LSD 4 times. (100μg, 250μg, 325μg, 125μg)
Every drug has been tested beforehand. Every Trip spaced apart by 4-20 weeks. 4 Weeks was too short, In hindsight I would recommend >6 weeks.
This is really hard for me to describe since my mother tongue is german, but I'll try my best.
ACID: The experiences were pretty demanding but positive.The beauty and euphoria you get to experience is unlike anything else. In the background there is always a feelings of curiosity, confusion and indecisiveness. I kind of felt like a little toddler seeing the beauty of the world for the first time, but also in need of guidance. This is why a loving Tripsitter or at least a person you can trust is very important. Also check beforehand, that you won't be disturbed and you are not responsible for any important tasks. This will prevent you from overthinking or getting overwhelmed.
Would recommend: Going into nature, Tripping right after getting out of bed(since you won't be able to sleep for 10h), listening to music, socialising (Keep a hat, sunglasses and headphones in case you want privacy quickly)
Definitly avoid: Cars, tripping if you have schizophrenia
Could be problematic: tripping alone, mirrors
Aftermath: Immediately stopped smoking weed, completely removed my social anxiety, made me more confident and more open minded.
MDMA: Everything I did felt amazing (mostly dancing and talking). While talking barriers caused by trauma were removed, but I still was completely in controll of what I wanted to say. I can definitly see how this could benefit therapie.
Aftermath: I did not experience a hangover, but I felt a strong need of love for about a week and I would not take it again, while being single.
Psychedelics are great, one time I was trippin on too much acid and I was staring at a fire pit and the fire pit turned into a mini world with little people and buildings, it was 2 years ago and it's such an experience to remember. would love to try out the psilocybin mushrooms next, just don't know where to get them, so hard to come by
Plant medicines like the mushrooms have been proven to bring many positive effects on overall mood and serotonin production after just one use. Additionally, micro-dosing is very beneficial to productivity and overall feelings of happiness.
The good thing about LSD is its non addictive, the best experience I've EVER had on ANY drug was LSD, I've been so happy my face literally hurt from smiling so much for so many hours, but but once the trip wears off the last thing I'm thinking about is dropping another trip, you need time to recover, the closest I'd ever had trips together were a week apart but usually months or years, having said that it's been 10yrs since the last time but certainly would again given the right time and setting
i’m doing them for the first time this saturday and i am so excited!! this made me even more excited because this is what i’m looking for with them
An advice. Do not look in mirrors or ur phone it can ruin the trip, I looked in my full size mirror once and I got so scared and thought something was coming after me (I was just moving closer 💀) it ruined my trip
once I took shrooms on accident they were in a chocolate bar and my fat ass thought it was regular choclate
This is excellent journalism & you deserve wayyyy more views
I loveeeee psychedelics, so far I’ve done acid, dmt, mushrooms, and 2-cb. I take a trip about once every 6 months to help with my extreme suicidal urges and it’s really worked for me, it’s like seeing behind the curtain of what’s going on in my brain and I really get to reflect.
You clarity in thought and speech is 👌 great video!
Glad you think so!!!
Great video Fads!
I think that the main risk with psychedelic use is lack of education about them, leading reckless ignorant people to literally go crazy. With a consistent education about substances these risks would almost disappear, and I do believe that psychedelics could help humanity itself find its way again
This needs way more views. Excellent commentary and information.
Your videos are well edited, structured, and orated. I think if you posted more consistently, you'd do so well.
I've never done a drug in my life but now I wanna try LSD to see if will cure my depression. The only challenge is going to be figuring out how to get it.
In Countries like France, Germany, Japan, etc there are some legal derivatives of LSD, which the body converts into LSD (very simplified). Consider Mushrooms tho, because Acid Trips are really long and especially in the end very demanding. Always have a tripsitter (preverably someone nice and loving) who has basic understanding of what is going on inside of you and what could help. Avoid: Cars, People who judge, (Mirrors). Do not take if you have schizophrenia.
when I used to live in CT I signed up to be in a Yale study for Psilocybin and depression, but it took so long that by the time I was called in to participate in the study I had moved to the NC.
my point being: Why so much time, it's a medical study, why are we not letting these studies happen faster?
If not controlled correctly and verified with multiple studies its not valid bro. We need a control and experimental group and replication of results with a statistical analysis, etc. Its a science thing.
You deserve more visibility ! So happy youtube algorythm brang me on "dopamine detox" video, now I dig ever others and it's amazing, thak you so much please keep going !
This is such an good, interesting video. Thank you for your passion.
Hey man just have to tell you have great well made videos and I hope you choose to pursue video curating in the future. P.S you remind me of a youtuber called Struthless
Thanks man!! Also I love struthless lol, I get a lot of inspo from his stuff
Everyone that recommended psychedelics to me was an always on high junkie. One is always depressed and mixes ssri with fentanyl, another cant do anything without a shot of meth.
Great well-researched video!
i have autism and mushrooms, especially psychedelics are my special interest. i really love this video and your well informed stance. i find the way you speak neutrally and logically about this topic really appealing and i respect it alot.
Have you tried them yet? Do you think they would help with autism?
I'm a very neurotic person. Consuming cannabis has induced some quite strong panic attacks, so I'm very skeptical that DMT would do anything but traumatize me. None of those who have similar experiences as me would apply to such a trial.
I have read the book psyched and you broke down so much of it thank you.
Hey Fads, I recently discovered your videos and they are really informative. I appreciate how you treat facts with the correct respect, as in you remind your viewers that one facts doesn't explain the whole picture of a topic.
Because of this, and because of your knowledge of psychology, I'd like to know if you'd be willing to make a video about psychotic illnesses. You see, I suffer from one of those and I've never gotten a satisfactory explanation of what it is and how it manifests. I've been struggling with this for years now, and I sort of recognise the symptom, but I'd love to learn more. I feel like you'd be able to inform me and others pretty well.
Thank you for your content, and keep this up!!
thank you for your videos! SERIOUSLY the most interesting videos I've found on TH-cam
Also: Depends on what type. Dissociative psychedelics, such as ketamine, are amazing. Shrooms? Not as dissociative. Each has its own impact on our neurology. Its fascinating.
If you want more views just know that you just want a push from the algorithm, maybe try advertising. Because the content brilliant and you don't need to change anything, just more initial exposure
I propose we use Datura to combat ADHD
Which Platfrom did you use to find these great papers? Great Video
I largely used Google Scholar to find review papers and used that as a starting point! I also used connectedpapers.com too - it's a nifty website that allows you to enter one paper and find a bunch of related papers too.
But yeah, it's mostly knowing what to google and use that as a starting point! I also linked a few places in the description too.
As an addictions counselor for a decade and a current mental health counselor: YEP. However, only if 'big pharma' allows it, can profit from it!!! Corrupt does not describe their evil ways.
This was really interesting
Do more please
omg i’m doing that trial haha slay
Its funny I actually wrote a college paper on this a couple months ago
good vid bro 👌🙏
Amazing video!! Would support on patreon if I wasn’t broke
I think people need to get massages rather than take drugs. The body makes all the drugs it needs, your bodies are just all messed up from tightness.
truth.
luv ya
Yeah guys instead of dealing with out issues lets just abuse substances!!!! I LOVE PSYCHEDELICS I TAKE LSD AND ACID EVERY DAY MY LIFE IS SO PERFECT
You do not have to sympathise with these substances, but please stop judging and spreading hate towards people for experimenting with these. You can use these substances responsibly and benefit from it and many do. Best Regards😃
@@kenkainzner7190 im not talking bout the people that experiment with substances or use them rarely for recreational use I'm talking about the people that become addicted and try to convince themselves that they're doing good for themselves
@@drowsyspook3455 Who becomes addicted to lsd lmao
You did some gorgeous research thou 🫶🏻 nice Vid
