Hello to the Strut
Besides a handful of small doses of peyote and acid I haven't really done psychedelics until just a couple years ago.* I knew I would use them at one point for therapeutic reasons but between that idea and my first serious dose were 3 years with a 5-6 day a week regimen of 3-7 hours mindfulness meditation and yoga after Jon Kabat-Zinn. I used a guided audio series that was first distributed on cassette tape in the late 70s or early 80s I think. He has a website where you can buy the mp3s, I can't recommend this shit enough. Preparing the mind-set is the most crucial part. If you pay good enough attention your subconscious will lead you and let you know when you're ready. The *real psychedelic experience opens the door to the subconscious. I believe that this way it can hand you the tools to re-wire yourself, help to release and truly understand trauma and its effects on your life and behavior and it can lead to a full understanding of self. This is not a silver bullet though and the outcome depends on the amount of work invested. Once you gained this understanding though you can go ahead and go pretty wild with this stuff. In my experience the main effect is not the trip itself but what will follow. For me there is always a 1-2 day phase where everything just settles and then begins the process of understanding. This is all totally subjective though and I'm certified crazy so take this with some salt.*actually, that's not true. Once I ingested a pint of highly concentrated hash honey with the active ingredients of ca 2 pounds of bud. A teaspoon of this would usually let me sleep for 12 hours. In high doses cannabinoids get super psychedelic. Was an accident though so I don't count this.

I make my own Mezcal based absinthe down here from home grown wormwood. One of very few plant based anti-parasitical remedies to cross the blood brain barrier (hence the psychoactive effects).
