[–] AutistoMephisto@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (2 children) I don't know why you're getting downvotes. An education class sounds like a good idea. Using psychedelics/dissociatives can be dangerous for first-timers. Better they be educated about the things they might experience on their first trip. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] havokdj@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (2 children) It's because illegal substances have a negative connotation of them. It's ironic because they are not only physically safer than legal substances, but they are also both cheaper and have higher recreational value than them. Also, if the masses started doing psychedelics, it would be the downfall of capitalism as everyone begins to realize that the world's governments and corporations are full of shit. Psychedelics really are the metaphorical third eye opener they are touted to be. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (2 children) I don’t know man I microdosed acid for a while and realized I needed to get a job permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] havokdj@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago I didn't say anything about not working, though I don't really recommend doing any substances at all if you are not in a decent enough financial situation. permalink fedilink source parent [–] shneancy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) having ambition is not something only capitalism can provide you with.

One bad thought can ruin the whole trip. I will agree, however, that psychedelics could have value in psychology.

Removing attention from the thought or changing the immediate environment can help if not negate it entirely. permalink fedilink source parent [–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) I’m all for educating people about psychedelics I just don’t want congress building that curriculum permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AutistoMephisto@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) That's fair.

I think people with knowledge of psychedelics should be building it. Trip sitters from Burning Man, shamans, deadheads, etc permalink fedilink source parent
