When I was younger I did a lot of psychadelics...mainly LSD, but did Mescaline aand Psilocybin as well. I got a lot out of them, but then ended up doing them more for recreation...and got a lot less out of them. I havet done any for a long while.


I see them now as a tool like books, once you have extracted the value from them, you may reread them to refrsh, but you arent going to read it every day or week. You may have to reread them until you get the point, but thats for you to know when you have gotten all you can out of it.


If you are going to do them, I suggest you DO them. Meaning don't drop acid and go to a party. Make sure you have "set and setting", which is clear mindset (and intention) and a safe, comfortable place with responsible people you trust. Also, I would reccomend the Terrence McKenna "heroic dose" which will remove all traces of your ego. No pussyfooting. While I did have a hell of a time watching "Ghost in the Shell" on acid, I didn't extract anything from it.

Also, make sure the sources are legit...which is the biggest danger in my opinion in the culture. Thats the biggest hurdle I have with doing them again. I considered cultivating some mushrooms just for a private experience.


EDIT: Salvia...I reccomend that, in the sense that it seems to only work well for those who intend it. I can get behind a drug like that. I hae done it 3 or 4 times with some interesting results. Works best for me with as much sensory deprivation as possible.
