I have similar stories. I believe it’s because psychedelics have crossed the threshold from being “irresponsible behavior” to “edgy behavior” which makes them “cool”. This is where peer pressure kicks in, and it’s where it becomes an in/out crowd thing. I have lots of friends who only take 1-2g max and spend a big chunk of their social life talking about how they love doing mushrooms.
Meanwhile I’ve done some pretty high doses and I don’t enjoy talking about it at all, because I consider it a largely personal experience.
- konfusinomicon 4y agoit only takes one underestimated time to truly respect the power of psychedelics. it should be a requirement to be humbled atleast once by such an experience in life

- throwawaylinux 4y ago> psychedelics have crossed the threshold from being “irresponsible behavior” to “edgy behavior” which makes them “cool” Do you mean in the 1960s, or was there also a time between then and now when drugs weren't cool?
- dTal 4y agoThere's a hint of gatekeeping in this comment. You seem to be saying that the people enjoying 1-2g with their friends are only doing it to be cool, while "real" mushroom fans like yourself do larger doses. Could an alternative explanation simply be that doing 1-2g with friends is actually a fun social experience, unlike the larger doses?
- goldenchrome 4y agoThe explanations are the same, yours is just more polite. A fun social experience is where cool happens.
