I had lost my job, my abusive family had disowned me, I was living in a tent on a crack house lawn. I was smoking a pack a day of cigarettes and was stuck on some narcissistic girl that was cycling me through the stages of love bomb/devalue/discard - mostly discard. I was severely nutrient deficient and lived off cheap fast food and cheaper than water soda, which lead to anxiety and an inability to sit still.
I had a big mushy trip in the Winter - 4 or 5 big handfuls. I was very loud and talkative and I felt full of serotonin. I thought I was the man for a few hours. I had intense hallucinations and saw the world very differently. The ground turned to water and I saw gravity like golden ants. I thought about friends and family and I saw my 'flatmates' as monsters. I watched them smoking and just thought it was disgusting and suicidal. Stupid.
Next day I quit smoking, got a small loan to buy a cheap car and got a job on a farm. The first month was hell. Every day was hard to get out of bed and just do simple things. I forced myself.
Three years later I'm self employed, have a nice car, and a respectable pregnant partner who is the head of the science dept at the local highschool. I can tell her anything and she displays no narcissistic traits.

Psilocybin mushrooms show promise in supporting mental health.

85% success rate for helping people quit smoking? Well, that explains why it's illegal.

This is one of his best lectures. What he said is so profound. "I don't think you're depressed when you get a cancer diagnosis. I don't think it's the right way to think about it. I think that you have a big problem. And it's not surprising that you're overwhelmed by negative emotion, and to think about that as Psychiatric malfunction is a major error."
I love this person and so happy to be able to learn from him.

Even the trip to hell can be helpful. After returning from deployment where I had been involved in combat. Once back I found out my wife had run off with our son. My head wasn't right, and I knew that it could lead to a bad trip, but I felt the need to take a break from reality. I took a medium sized dose 3.5 grams of dry mushrooms. I had my trip through hell, but on the other side I had unpacked a bunch of crap that needed unpacking. Not a cure but a realization that I had the tools needed to get through what was going on.

I was in a traumatic accident resulting in loss of my left leg and ptsd. I took psilocybin in an attempt to relieve phantom pain but instead cured my ptsd.

I had a single mushroom trip about 10 years ago and still til this day it's one of the top experiences I had. It's so much more than the delusions. They way I felt was 100% content and peace. All of a sudden I knew exactly what to do with each and every problem in my life. Things weren't complicated anymore, everything was simple and easy to see through. I have no desire to do it again but it's so true that a single trip can change your life forever

My mom who's dying of bone, liver and breast cancer has told me several times that the depression that comes with it is so horrible that if she could get rid of just one; she would keep the cancer to be rid of the depression.
It took me some time but last night I finally convinced her to dose a very small amount of psilocybin mushrooms. We already noticed a decrease in depression.
This weekend I'm going to give her a bit of a higher dose and see how that goes.

I did 6 grams my first time and straight up cried in my friend's car, I stopped smoking cigarettes after that day, I just didn't want to, the shrooms reset my brain.

[ParadymShiftVegan]

The first time I took LSD, it lifted a deep, dark depression that I couldn't budge an inch no matter what I did or how hard I tried. I've never been depressed since that time, almost 5 years ago. This is so wonderful and profound to me, I can hardly express in words ❤️☮️💯

[drzeuce]

Thanks to mushrooms I gained the insight that I could and should quit smoking cigarettes. Which I did quit a month ago. Been smoking since 13 and now I'm 25 and smoke free

[Aum_shantishantishanti]

I took mushrooms a lot, now I’m off of adderall, subutex and can hardly stomach alcohol . Hmm 🤔. Once you find out just how magical we truly are, it’s hard to poison yourself with things that don’t serve you . Some trips were scary, some were pure bliss . I’m very grateful i came upon this beautiful place within, which is you . And me too . 🙏

Its like its illegal to experiment with our own consciousness, to help ourselves.
Another great video.

10% chance of "Hell". Well, at 18 I had my first ever psilocybin trip, and it surely a trip to hell. However, it is the most important and profound experience I've had during my adulthood. It exposed me to the disasters and failures I had experienced, as well as the path I was headed. The experience was frightening, but constructive, it straightened me the fuck up. I went from being an unambitious, indifferent, lazy person, that lacked self-respect, and who didn't recognize the responsibilities that I had for myself nor my close relations, to a dedicated and ambitious person, who restored his self-respect, pursued responsibilities, and found a meaningful direction. At 27, I am still on the same meaningful direction, and in a position to provide sustainable help and opportunities for millions of people in unfortunate circumstances. I do not mention this to brag, but to show that the potential outcome of my life changed dramatically, and most importantly it also provided help for the unfortunate.

[GodofLovers]

My first mushroom experience changed my life radically into a different direction. It woke me up to how immature I was being at 19 and I seen how a lot of the people I was with was a bad atmosphere to be in. I also got stability in my uncertain Christian faith, as well as getting a glimpse of joyous eternity, and how God's consciousness is connected to every molecule in existence. It was a beautiful and terrifying hour journey, but turned me around from a destructive path. I used to think it was an evil brain killing drug, but I know better. They tricked us christians and everyone else that it's dangerous and rotting your brain. All lies and propaganda.

What's worse: taking a one time large does of psylocybin to help you cope with PTSD or take Zoloft for 23 years, which just puts it on the back burner, and find out later your kidneys are screwed up.
