Either unregulated (that is personally buying them) or perhaps being part of a therapy. I've heard so many success stories with people taking ecstasy for depression and feeling an afterglow for weeks/months that totally changed their perspective on life.
It's a shame that the mainstream medical community is still close minded when it comes to this stuff. I suppose doctors can't really recommend them as they're illegal but they have been shown to be promising in studies.
What has your experience with them been?
Okay it's important to clear something up first: none of these are hallucinogens. Weed is a narcotic, ecstasy (MDA), molly (MDMA), and LSD are ALL psychedelics. It's one of the biggest misconceptions in the whole world that LSD and shrooms are hallucinogens lmao. You do not hallucinate. Also it's very important to distinguish between ecstasy and molly. MDMA (molly) comes as crystal like rocks. If you get molly that's mostly powder, it's been pretty cut. Ecstasy comes in pressed pills that can be cut with literally anything. Doing ecstasy is doing a very watered down version of molly that could be mixed with who fucking knows what other drugs. I strongly recommend to everyone not to do ecstasy.
Molly is amazing. But you have to do it right. The reason it's used in couples therapy is because the intimacy you feel on molly is so warm and unreal. It's ridiculous to me that molly is used as a party drug. Like yeah you're energetic and really want to dance but you'll only experience molly's true potential if you do it with people you are intimate with or want to be intimate with. I mostly mean emotional intimacy but molly also makes touch amaaaaaaaaaazing. Like when I do it with someone I'm seeing I cannot stop licking them lmao, but it's not even sexual, it's just that touch is so good. So also only do it with people you feel comfortable being physical with. Being on molly is probably the best I've ever felt in my entire life. I think it's therapeutic for anyone struggling with wanting to be close to other people. Cause when you do it with someone you feel closer even way after the molly has worn off, just the experience of being intimate like that is so uplifting and heartwarming that it can change your perspective on things. It can make you fall in love with some parts of life you may have forgotten about.
I trip every couple of months and it's a good mind reset for me. It's tricky cause you have to make sure you're in a mentally stable place before tripping so you don't have a bad one. I also take strong doses though (200ug absolute minimum), and that makes the potential for a bad trip more likely (and it will be worse of a bad trip), but it also means the therapeutic effects are stronger. Very good mind cleanser- I always trip on or around New Years for that reason. During the trip I get an impression of how I'm feeling about the new year and how it'll go, things I want to happen in it. I don't consider any dose under 150ug to be a real trip. And it's really obvious cause when I talk to people who've only done 100ug they're blown away by some of my experiences on acid and I'm like yeah that's cause you didn't really trip you just got a little silly for a bit. Acid is also wonderful for emotional expression- but then again I'm an extremely emotionally expressive and artistic person all the time. I sing my heart out and love to paint while tripping, I think I paint best while tripping. If you feel safe and stable enough, I also recommend taking walks on acid. But depends on where you live, I live in Chicago so I have options of like well do I want to walk by the river or through a neighbourhood with a lot of neon signs? Pick a day where you don't have ANYTHING to do the next day and then trip. I hate day tripping but that's just me some people really like it. I think it's too much light, daylight combined with the strong visuals of higher doses is visually way too much to process and it's disorienting. Even my bad trips have been emotionally cleansing, every single one. Acid can also make you fall in love with little details of life cause your sense of hearing is heightened/deeper and the visuals are so pretty, so like music is better and experiencing the world as extra beautiful, those can have an impact on your mental state past the actual trip. Pay very close attention to different dosages and how they affect you. If you think you're a person who might be prone to bad trips start with 100ug and just do not push your limits with psychedelics. Even though I've dropped a lot of acid over the year I still don't try to push it and see how much I can take without having a bad time. My maximum is 250ug and tbh I don't see much reason for anyone to go beyond that because it's strong and anything beyond that very easily becomes just over-stimulation.
Weed: on any given day if it is sunset or later I am almost certainly buzzed (like rn) and it's very pleasant. I'm more relaxed and I love the body high, but I'm not stoned so I'm still very functional. I also have 5 different strains of weed. I'm a BIG believer in keeping different strains around- whenever I smoke it's not just like "oh I want weed," I'm picking the strain to fit my mood and what I'm doing very specifically. Like I said I love body highs so I definitely lean towards indicas. Sativas just give me terrible headaches. Contrary to popular belief it's quite possible to be social and mentally/physically active with indicas? People say sativas are more creative and I completely disagree. Sativas are energizing but it's erratic, non focused energy, you won't be able to get stuff done. Some indicas are heavy and will knock you the fuck out, but that's not all of them like everybody thinks. A lot of them (or indica leaning hybrids) just make things relaxing and generally more pleasant (music is also better with indica leaning things). It's the best thing coming home (especially after a long day), knowing you're in for the night, and smoking something on the indica side.
As you can probably tell I do a lot of drugs (others in addition to these) and because I'm responsible with them and know how they affect me they are VERY therapeutic for me. That comes from a combination of both knowing myself, knowing exactly why I like or dislike certain drugs based on how they work with my personality and the way my brain works, and a lot of experience. Please DM me with any questions you have about drugs and incorporating them into your life: I have a lot of technical knowledge (how to stay physically safe and take care of your body, even with hard drugs, ways to ease comedowns/side effects, combinations of drugs, etc.) in addition to personal experience and I've guided many people with their first experiences, always happy to do it. Drugs are fucking great if you're responsible about them. I always want to make sure everyone is having the best possible time they can have on them.
i've taken acid, shrooms, beans (ecstasy), & other drugs trying to cope with depression, & i would have to admit that although they are harmful in doses that are more than moderate they tend to help with the short-term depression, in a sense. acid is my personal favorite of the lot, albeit expensive, & there could be complications because of it. make sure that if you experiment with any form of LSD or hallucination inducing drugs that you are in a stable state of mind when you take them. if you go into the situation in a bad mood, then you will have a bad trip. if you have the capabilities, take another drug beforehand (perhaps weed) to make you a bit happier, then continue with the LSD. it's virtually harmless in small doses, just make sure you give your body about a 3 day recovery period before consuming hallucinogens again. hope this helped, feel free if you have any questions
How much are you paying per tab? And what dose for those tabs?
