It started out as a "hey let's have some fun", to "why am I not so sad and anxious", to "I don't need or want your psyche meds anymore", to "week 3, time to microdose". Praise mother earth for providing us this magic sustenance.

Psilocybin changed my life. I suffer from 'idiopathic' PTSD ( or cptsd by modern standards). It means that my stress has no source or cause. My whole life I suffered without understanding why. 5 grams of Golden Teacher, prepared with extremely deliberate care and humility, in a dark room while laying in bed with music. Finally remembered why I was so broken. Almost 10 years of my childhood memories, repressed. I had been in therapy for over 20 years as an adult and this was the first time I finally felt like I knew what was happening to me. It didn't cure me, but it revealed the path and a true source of hope.

Have you noticed more people (exponentially) are experiencing what seems like a collective awakening? It's no coincidence that psilocyben is also being more widely and thoroughly re-distributed throughout the population.

Psilocybin changed my life. It showed me all the boxes I had put myself in or had been put in by others/society. I felt what it was like to be free from all the worries, anxieties, disappointment, I feel from not meeting expectations. I put this teaching into action and for the last 3 years have been breaking out of these boxes. Itβs been challenging, but with my journey as my compass, I have been able to gain a greater sense of inner and outer freedom

So utterly tragic what happened to Maria π’ my heart hurts for her, how terribly unfair. Wherever you are Maria, thank you for your gift to the Western world and hope you're having a blast in the hereafter β€β€

I have never used mushrooms, but the commentator said it had a similar affect as meditation. I discovered mantra meditation close to the age of 30. I would write out my negative thinking and come up with a positive mantra that contradicted the negative thinking. For 45 minutes, 5 days a week, for 18 months, I would recite a positive mantra in my mind and anytime my mind wandered I would bring my focus back to reciting the positive mantra in my mind. I changed my mantra every week. Mantra meditation, which I learned from the book Meditation for Dummies caused my thoughts to become more hopeful. It also brought me so much happiness. The book Meditation for Dummies also taught to not suppress feelings of pride, fear, anger, jealousy etc. The book teaches to feel feelings until they go away without acting on feelings for the most part. I discovered hell on earth is a mind that has not meditated and a mind that suppresses feelings. I am so much happier and never knew I could be so happy until I regularly practiced mantra meditation and felt my feelings until they went away.

Psilocybin changed my life. Launched me down a profound spiritual journey. Got me off of anti-depressants and narcotic pain medication and has cut my anxiety down so profoundly that I very rarely feel it anymore.

Mushrooms played a huge role in helping me overcome severe depression. They showed me that I'm not alone, helped me feel gratitude for life again, and showed me the secret of self love. This was all revealed to me while walking alone, barefoot in nature.
