This is my heartfelt appeal to all my genuinely suicidal compatriots on here.
Yes drugs have a lot of potential to seriously fuck up your life. From what I've seen on here there are addicts that are suicidal because of their struggle with it.
However, for those that are 100% going to CTB in the near future, for heaven's sake use your brain's pleasure receptors to eke out some actual enjoyment before you go.
I'm currently enjoying a heavenly opiate buzz right now and I realized haven't actually felt good in so long I forgot what it felt like (I'm chronically ill). If you skip at least a couple of days between doses you won't develop an opiate tolerance/habit. I've dabbled with opiates for 20+ years and never been addicted.
Likewise benzos soothe my inflamed brain and make me feel almost normal.
I can't drink alcohol without feeling like death the next day unfortunately (common with people with Lyme).
I think stimulants like speed would probably be too harsh on my system at this point. However I'm considering once last MDMA hurrah.
Ketamine is an option and many people are actually using it to treat depression (there are doctors that will prescribe it for this reason).
I don't think I could handle psychedelics anymore though, too much risk of a dark trip I think given my general state of mind. However if you want to gain a sense that maybe there is more to physical existence then trying DMT or shrooms might be worth considering.
But honestly drugs are probably the only way for many of us to have any kind of happiness (however illusory and fleeting) before we go.
Of course if you think you might try to recover instead of CTB, obviously don't go this route as it will probably just make that more difficult to achieve.
