the things you post sometimes...

interesting article about a john hopkins study published in the journal of Psychopharmacology (abstract/full text PDF is easily found on the JOP website if interested):

there are a lot like it to be found..

interesting quote from end of the article:

This time around, caution may be paying off. Dr. Jerome Jaffe, America's first drug czar, who was not involved with the research, said in a statement, "The Hopkins psilocybin studies clearly demonstrate that this route to the mystical is not to be walked alone. But they have also demonstrated significant and lasting benefits. That raises two questions: could psilocybin-occasioned experiences prove therapeutically useful, for example in dealing with the psychological distress experienced by some terminal patients?
"And should properly-informed citizens, not in distress, be allowed to receive psilocybin for its possible spiritual benefits, as we now allow them to pursue other possibly risky activities such as cosmetic surgery and mountain-climbing?"

my only point being, there is a lot of misinformation out there about psychedelics, and when misused/abused by some people, they can be dangerous. but there is a lot to be explored about them and it is silly to limit this because of hive-mind thinking rather than critical thinking and legitimate sources of information

and i think it goes without saying that no one below 18 should even think about psychedelics, PERIOD. just in case that's not obvious

threads.

Glad you posted this i agree with you completely. kids under 18 shouldnt take it because if they do theyre more than likely doing it to rebel or to just get high i started taking psychedelics when i was out of high school living on my own and learning who i was as an independent person. the experiences i have had on lsd, psilocybin, and dmt have taught me more about myself and life than i would ever be able to acheive in my normal life.

Threads for when I'm not at school.

Sounds interesting.
