Hey you dirty hippies

[Cainad (dec.)]

I've often wondered how those sort of drugs would affect me now, having gone through a fairly intense introspective portion of my life wherein I got to know the inside of my skull reasonably well. There are definitely still filters and deeply-rooted patterns that could be fucked with, but I'm also aware of that fact going in.

I almost want to try something, just to see if I can deliberately make changes.

I was always humbled by that stuff, I felt like an overgrown, grotesque toddler-brained thing that would have stupidly gotten itself killed ages ago, only something was letting me slide because it thought I was funny.

I did lots and lots and LOTS of acid 12-13 years ago. I sometimes want to do it again, but I feel like that's kind of a phase of my life that's over now. It would be like going back to my high school and visiting this year's Senior Prom. I would probably feel some combination of pathetic and creepy. So, no thanks.

I haven't touched LSD in about 15 years, but I've also done more of it than anyone else I've ever known. And I'm fucking FINE.

But seriously, it's never had ANY negative effects for me, long-term or otherwise, and I'd say it gets at least some of the credit for forcing me to tinker with my own wiring until I could shift my rheostat dial over from "narcissistic asshole" to "potential biped".

I still eat some shrooms about once a year or so just to squeegee the inside of my head clean. And because it's a ridiculous amount of fun, of course.
