I’m going to dissent from the rest of the commentators and propose that a priest, a friend, a parent, somatic therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, etc, is likely still a healthier approach than papering over social ignorance or pathologies with psychoactive drugs. Though, I don’t align at all with chemical interventions in these sorts of things so I’m in a minority.
- namaria 3y agoI think using chemicals like this can be a shortcut. Might be useful, might be dangerous.
- Apofis 3y agoI would venture further and say there are no shortcuts if you want to be successful and doing permanent and irreversible damage to yourself is not going to get you there. Success is rooted in persistence and consistency, not seeing hallucinations.
- namaria 3y agoWay to moralize the issue.
- aerio 3y agoI'm going to offer a counter point, in that all those solutions either require you to know where you want to go, or are entirely dependent on someone else's influence and opinions, as opposed to you having epiphanies from your own experiences and trains of thought.
