Advices for consuming shrooms

[pianoforte]

For anyone who reads this who is wondering if they should take shrooms, or anything else for that matter, I have one simple word of advice to give you:

Don't.

Your body is pure; the way Nature intended your body to be was without foreign influences. It is a huge disrespect to your physical self to feed it drugs. There are other, non-chemical ways to alter your mind (sleep deprivation, etc.), but I have found that there is no point in doing those, even - just fill your life with peace and happiness. Have time to yourself, go up into the mountains and meditate - whatever floats your boat. You will find that if you occupy your time with good things, there will be no desire for other forms of alteration. However, if you go down the route of chemicals/drink/etc. you will certainly regret it later on, no matter how much fun you had while on your drugs.

Embrace purity, friends.

I don't think it's fair to compare shrooms or any hallucinogen with alcohol, they have nothing in common: the first, and talking by experience, help you expand your consciousness while minimizing your ego, giving you great peace and insight; it's not a coincidence that so many cultures throughout history have used them to gain understanding and retrieve new ideas. Alcohol doesn't give you anything of the above, and I speak as someone who loves a good drink.

After my experience I firmly believe that hallucinogens are tools to help your brain break down barriers imposed by culture and dailiness. Arguably I suspect the same can be achieved through meditation as you say, but I don't think that takes credit away from shrooms.

So yes, if someone is reading this and wonders if they should try it, please do.

I would consider my last trip one of the major emotional turning points in my life. And it's been 6 years since.
