Coffee City, Texas. Wow. I've never heard of a city of 249 people with a city council, mayor, and police force of 50 cops, half of them bad cops, having been disciplined, fired and criminally charged from other cities. They make 80-100K per year.

50 cops for less than 250 people? What are property taxes like there carrying so many cops on their backs? Looks like they are paying the price of stupidity to me.

'Shrooms worked for me. I had suffered chronic depression since a near fatal hammer attack in Calgary in my early 20s. I self medicated with mainly alcohol since tho tried many prescribed antidepressants over the years. I got an oz of Penis Envy online in Dec 2020 and caught a good buzz on that New Year then just micro-dosed on and off after that. On May 29th of 2021 I went to town to do some shopping and pick up a bottle to get pissed and decided to skip that. I haven't had a drink since so it's been over two years without alcohol, without cravings or any real depression.

Worth a try!

:peace:
I'm a pretty big advocate for that approach. Buncha hallucinogens and sitting alone in the dark meditating/thinking about stuff really helped me conquer some demons going from a wild guy to being a more mild mannered middle aged dude. That was more of a big dose approach, but it was followed up with microdosing to help the changes stick.

Curious how the legalization stuff plays out here in CO. I can see good and bad, they haven't really figured out the distribution part yet. DMT parties in the park have the potential for some disasters, but well...can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

I wish good clean LSD of reliable doses were available. From what experienced folk have told me, it has unique properties.

Psilocybin was one of the two best drugs I ever took. First experience was with a group of fellow campers in Hawaii, under a full moon. A big full moon. Never laughed so hard and it changed my mind. Street LSD was never as good, or reliable. Got burned several times. I too, would like to have some pharmaceutical. I now have the time.

Mushrooms are better and easier on the head with a much shorter high and no or few aftereffects, except positive ones for some, psilocybin is reported to be 200 times less toxic than LSD, but I read that decades ago. I used to grow psilocybe cubensis on sterile grain culture in my misspent youth, back then it took some research and mail order spore prints. You can easily grow these mushrooms DIY and there are many guides online these days and spore prints are easy to get.

I have read otherwise. I took a psilocin derivative once that was supposed to be on and off in 90 minutes. It was thirteen hours of hard work.
So I do not believe that psilocybin would be of manageable duration.
LSD has a reported duration of 8-12 hours, in line with my “short-duration” substance.

As for toxicity, no. That is entirely a consequence of street acid often not being acid, but something like DOM, a very potent and very long-acting amphetamine psychedelic (much much easier to produce than true acid, and didn’t spoil) that sent many to the ER because it was slow to come on “this shit is weak. Redose.”, fairly brutal in its action, and then the overdose lasted days.

From my experience of actual mushrooms, 5 grams is enough to bring on the full "Spectrum" of effects including vivid hallucinations. I was on a beach by a cliff with a buddy doing 5 grams one sunny afternoon, I was looking at a sedimentary rock layer, pulling them out like drawers and animating the imaginary fossils in them when something caught my attention. It was my very high IQ buddy who had his head shoved in a hole in the shale beach trying to make the hallucinations go away! We took them around noon yet were fit to go home and have supper with our parents, met up again for a few drinks after and had a pleasant evening. To get that high on acid you would be tripping for 3 days (been there done that) and suffer flashbacks for days and weeks after, it was a much rougher ride!

It's risky either way. Not all mushrooms are equal (even within a species). Acid is rarely pure, or even that good (think MDMA blends).

I prefer good acid. But the psilocybin market is more predictable, safer. I don't even try to find acid anymore. It would have to find me, the little melty plastic moldings I love.

The one time I tripped, I was astounded how debilitating it was. I could not think straight or perform simple tasks to save my life.
I spent half an hour searching the garage for The Lost Toilet Paper without success and with a profound anxiety. It was there; I didn’t recognize it.
I fear shrooms if a tailor-made quickie lasted thirteen hours paying full fare and another seven not yet really back on my feet.
