How do you know you have a stable mindset? I've had very positive experiences with drugs but unfortunately went through psychosis with some weed about 11 years ago.
It's made me a lot more mindful of my mental state and I'm a lot stronger for it. I've become aware of positive and negative influences, where I'm being worried or too blasé, comfortable or not.
I haven't had mushrooms and I've heard that it really digs out deep things in your mind.
- schwartzworld 3y agoIf you have a background of psychosis you shouldn't mess with mushrooms.
- hackernewds 3y agoyes. it irks me when people promote it like a magic pill. there are a lot of associated, permanent damage you can do with shrooms if not under the right initial conditions
- wil421 3y agoA close family friend had a history of mental illness and schizophrenia on their mothers side. This person took shrooms at 16 and it started a schizophrenic episode/psychosis. It would’ve likely happened a little later in life but the shrooms kicked it off.
- huytersd 3y agoIf you’ve had psychosis, there’s a decent chance that might happen again. Most of my trips were pretty surface level but that’s probably because there was usually a lot of external stimulation going on (music festivals, concerts, drum circles etc.). I’ve also had good trips just sitting around with friends and listening to music but those were a little more introspective. My bad trip was in a familiar, comfortable setting too but as soon as the trip started I couldn’t escape the bad news I was anticipating and fixated on it the entire time.
