actually, i wonder if I can just stay up...ive been meaning to do this experiment anyway. I feel like caffeine doesn't work on me the way it does on everyone else. I don't really feel that much more awake by it, and so what if, I drink some coffee and this time actually observe if it prolongs my awake state, or if I end up crashing anyway...

fuk it we ball. I'm gonna stay up.
Right as i say that, I'm even more exhausted- god damn it

I'll try to look up stuff related to simul-tripping tomorrow, if I remember...and maybe look into how psychedelics are used theraputically to figure out how someone can use psychedelics in a controlled way.

Do you have any experience with any psychedelics btw?

I have none. Whenever I hear the term psychedelic I can't help but think of Datura and I immediately frighten myself. That drug is genuinely so terrifying. I've only ever heard horror stories about them. OMG what if the answer to this whole problem is Datura? yikes

I also wonder how close the two people have to be, emotionally, for the best results. Like does it have to be best friends of 10 years? husband and wife? Siblings?

tell you what, though, I'm in that state rn - eyes half open and half shut.

You should hit the hay as well, doc! AHH I THOUGHT IT WAS 4AM, BUT ITS 5 NOW O-O wth...it was like we said, lose track of time and end up going to sleep with the sunrise. The sun's out, im pretty sure. lmao

Good idea!

I did a fair bit when I was younger; went through many experimental phases back in ye olden days! There's definitely a big spectrum under that category that ranges from "wow I'm having the best time of my life" and "wow this is terrible", but I'd say generally they're a really good time if you're an adaptable person, and responsible in your dosing (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

I definitely hit the hay right after that last message LOL, still drowsy af and may have to take a mid day nap (❁´◡`❁) thank you for joining me at the asscrack-of-dawn hours; hopefully you were able to get a decent snooze in as well !!!

Good morning!

I've never done it, and frankly, I'm a lil scared to mess with them recreationally. The only way I would be okay doing them would be to pretend I'm doing them for research purposes lmao. The scary part is the "wow this is terrible" can be very VERY bad depending on which psychedelic you take, like there is no limit as to how terrible things could get if you fucked up and took the wrong dosage or are just having a terrible trip.


lmao yeah it was really late. I tried staying up but at around 7, I decided I'm not built like that and went back to sleep. I just woke up a little while ago lmao. I think im doing alright in terms of being awake. luckily my body runs alright even if I've only slept like 4 or 5 hours, compared to the 8 you're supposed to be sleeping. and no, the pleasure's all mine! Thank you for staying up and letting me yap to you about music and psychedelics and dream-related research!

I hope you have a great rest of your day, and great mid-day nap!!

If you ever were curious, you could just microdose a small amount of mushies; in my anecdotal experience that has been the most effective way to try them with minimal risk for most people! Also, do them solo or around a good person/people, as the external environment can very heavily influence the experience.

The only bad trips I ever had was when I was around 1 particular person; aside from that, all positive!

That's impressive in the sleep department -- good way to maximize the hours in the day (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ generally the same here, though rebooting in the morning takes longer haha. and absolutely!!! I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day too !!

I think I'm far too afraid of what psychedelics could do to have a safe/pleasant trip experience. But if I find someone properly experienced and I trusted them enough, I might be okay with trying it? I also wouldn't know where to get some lmao
pfft im far too lame to know things like that

Technically, i can function but I do imagine it'd be bad in the long term to only sleep 5 hours per night. I try to get a good amount of sleep but ehh, some nights you just don't want the sun to rise.

That’s fair haha, in the end you’re not missing out on something you can’t achieve without the use of psychedelics. You’re not lame at all !! It’s actually quite refreshing when substance use doesn’t dictate people’s entire personalities
٩( ᐛ )و

I’m with you on that; my bed calls for me, but my eyes win every time ٩( 'ω' )و

well, ig at least I have that going for me! My personality, for better or for worse is free of any influence from substances. Truth be told, I've only ever had alcohol three times throughout my life, all in the last year. The first can ever was a heineken which was fine? I was hoping it'd get me drunk so I sat through the yeasty taste only for me to finish the whole can and feel nothing, then, a few months later, I had white wine with a few roommates, didn't enjoy that much, and finally I had a wiskey coke in a can from a supermarket near by...but I drank it so slowly that it too had no effect on me. Those are not good odds lmao
but that's all I got for any kind of substance use.
I wanted to try smoking a cigarette but then I heard that first timers can even end up puking from them and I was immediately put off the idea/desire.

also, yeah, its been the same with me every night. I say I'm gonna sleep early, sometimes I'm very exhausted and yet somehow I keep staying up till like 3 or 4 am. help. ToT

That's dope yo! It's good to be informed but at a distance from drug/alcohol culture; the last thing you want is to be an impaired backseat passenger to your own life.

I do not understand the appeal of alcohol now as an adult; that shit takes like straight ASS ヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ I do smoke cigarettes on and off, and would recommend that you never try it. Risk to reward payoff is incredibly suboptimal

I feel you on that; gonna try my best to hit the sack early, but we'll see how that goes LOL

we got this (maybe)! (〃￣︶￣)人(￣︶￣〃)
