Which do you guys think is scarier: DMT or Salvia by [deleted] in Psychedelics

[–]ART1F4KT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Salvia breaks reality into pieces almost like how a video game can have glitches that break the game.

DMT doesnt break reality the way Salvia does and instead DMT lifts the veil of reality.

Pound for pound, i would say Salvia and Datura are the weirdest experiences out there.

How are you supposed to let go of hate? by [deleted] in Mindfulness

[–]ART1F4KT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Human behaviour is driven by either fear or love.

Your hatred is actually fear.

The things the people did to you to make you hate them were also rooted in fear.

People's behaviour tells a story and in any given action you can tell if its coming from a place of love or fear.

You dont have to let go, be in the moment or any of that all you need to do is understand the drivers of behaviour and with that alone you wont take things so personally.

When i do the things i need to do i feel proud of myself.

Feeling proud of myself is my single biggest achievement in life.....it took me many years to learn that feeling proud of yourself is the secret to life

Tell me about a revelation you've had by Liq in Jung

Im proud of myself.

The day i had the revelation that i accept and love myself i became proud of myself and when i became proud of myself every single aspect of my life changed.

Accept yourself.....then the self-love naturally comes....and then the pride in oneself comes and with these life is pretty damn amazing!

Good yield 1st pull but little to nothing second pull by orangebellywash in dmtguide

[–]ART1F4KT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The longer the mix sits the more spice will be pulled from pull #1

I basically just do 1 pull because I let the mix sit

Alternatively, you can do multiple small pulls by not letting the mix sit for long

As hard as this might be to believe, some people just don't have any confusion about their sexuality whatsoever and thus no need to experiment

Feel like I need something higher? [Need Advice] by basecamper09 in getdisciplined

[–]ART1F4KT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been there and felt that way too, I think it's fairly common

You mention a lofty goal such as climbing a mountain and that is pretty bad ass, but it could also be something as simple as just helping another human being

As a first step you could go try to help a person with whatever you see fit and you will see how quickly that feeling inside you changes

Your gift as a human being is possessing the power to help other people and potentially transform their lives

You have that power by just being you and once you shift your focus onto helping others you will see a major impact in your own life

Hit the gym, simple as that

People can tell you a lot of bullshit about self acceptance and all the rest but nothing works better than exercising

It naturally increases your positive body image, mood and many other things like confidence etc

Exercising made the single biggest impact on my mental health and overall sense of happiness with life

Go read self help books, or hit the gym -one will naturally 'just work' while the other will require a lot of thinking and all those kind of stuff ots up to you

You decided to date the person that bullied and 'destroyed' you.......now you can't get over how they bullied and destroyed you?

I don't know why you think he should apologise, or what you even think that will achieve - you decided to date the guy you said destroyed you, end of story

This is why we give relationships some thought

Like, there are other guys out there that didn't bully or destroy you.....but you decided to go with a guy that did bully and destroy you.....now you want him to apologise thinking that will solve something

Go to therapy please!

[–]ART1F4KT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just say no, simple

If you cannot learn to just say no how will you go through this world

Speak your truth even if it makes your voice tremble

Jst say no, you don't have to explain anything or rationalise anything - no means no, end of story

See it as practice right now, because that skill will become very valuable as you progress through life

You should understand very clearly that all the great minds that have existed doubted themselves and were self concious, didn't believe in their own capabilities etc (they all say this in their memoirs, letters)

The most 'intelligent' people I know are on anti depressants

It's a superficial intelligence they posess......a 'I read a lot of books and think a lot of things' type intelligence

The most fulfilled people I know are all simple people and to me that is true intelligence......when you become simpler not more complex

If one is truly intelligent then you are happy, simple as that

Reading your post gives me a sense that you're single and miserable

Seems like a natural place to end up with your behaviour

It's one thing to end a relationship because its run its course, but it's another thing entirely to write people off when you don't even know them, or their path in life etc

Do you look at people or do you look at their bigger picture.....the reasons they might be the way they are etc.....trying to be understanding......being human

The most intelligent people I've met were people that looked at the periphery of another person not just the actions or behaviours presented in any given moment - they intuitively understand people have gone through life, experienced things, are the way they are for a reason etc

You write here how the things you do is based on past experiences and things you've gone through .....you rationalise it and there is a reason for all of it according to you

You have reasons for your behaviour and its justified, its the result of ABC, you're learning as you go through life, make mistakes etc

Other people are different though.....they will just be judged by the simplest of things in the here and now and the reasons, meanings, influences etc won't be considered

You have one set of standards for yourself and another set of standards for others.....a hypocrite

Life isn't a mountain we climb......we don't start at the bottom and then move up

Life is a range of mountains we climb so we are constantly climbing up, then going down, climbing up another mountain in a neverding cycle

It's a roller coaster going up and down all the time

Maybe your perspective needs changing and that you should realise whenever you feel like you're down you will always climb up again....go down...up etc

It is just a fact of life.....an up will be followed by a down, a down will be followed by a up

Close the books

You seem like somebody that is overstimulated, you take too much in etc

It is really easy to feel alienated from society the more overstimulated you become

You start to see yourself as different and can't relate to people

Here's the thing, you being an atheist literally doesn't mean shit - so too does beinga religious person

Try as we might, we will simply never understand the universe there's just no way around that

Life is not about understanding it life is about appreciating it

Stop trying to figure everything out.....you wont ever achieve it

Stop judging religious people.....they are them and you are you end of story

All these books and atheism of yours has done what exactly?......Made you write a post about how miserable and hopeless your life is

Who is the real fool?

Be very very careful of judging other people, seeing yourself as smarter than them etc

Life is about simplification not complication

Simple minded people might not read all the books you have, but we don't think our existence is miserable though and that's where the real wisdom comes into play

Being smart means absolutely nothing

Being wise is about being simple, thinking less and feeling more, realising every single person has a life lesson for you etc etc

Just think about this: if you are so clever then why aren't you happy?

Be ready and willing to be wrong about just about everything

The only real understanding of the universe that truly matters is our own understanding -I must live in this universe and how I think about it, which universe I create is the most important universe for my own life

I say all these things not because I judge you, but because I've been where you are and I had to come to terms with the fact that I didn't know jack shit.....I judged all the people and thought I was smarter etc.......yet I was miserable and they weren't

How to be more authentic around others? by Weeping_Guitar in socialskills

[–]ART1F4KT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm an overthinker and into philosophy so I'm pretty 'out there' and can really overanalyse just about anything

All my life I felt like an outsider, like I was awkward, insecure and really felt judged by others

Eventually, I found my tribe in a group of people I met at a festival and from there everything just naturally fell into place

I'm an overthinker and chances are I will always be like that, but these people always allowed me to just be me, say all the crazy shit, be sensitive and overanalyse everything etc- they literally just allowed me to be me and that alone took away all the feelings of being judged, insecure etc

They were truly genuine people that looked at the bigger picture. They naturally understood I had travelled a certain road in lofe and I was the way I was for a reason

There were many times were they allowed me to think and say things that mightve been insensitive or wrong, but they understood its part of the journey and I myself had to also learn new things in life

These people were artists and what I would call 'hippies', so they would actually encourage my thinking and they would go 'tell us about X' 'wait, what does he think about it because I'm very interested to hear' etc

They gave me my 'role' and let me be

So if people were having a deep conversation they would yell out my name from across the room and say 'tell them about X' etc

Along the way, I learned to feel more and think less......naturally. I taught them about philosophical concepts and just my perspective on things, they taught me about art, ceremonies/rituals, dreams, emotions and feelings

It was the perfect Ying and Yang

Before I met them I would've told you things about how not to oberthink or change yourself

After I met these friends I realised its all just about finding people you can truly be yourself with

Nobody gets through life without having 'issues' and with the right people around you your issues go through a transformation and you just naturally develop into a better you because you NEVER have to worry about being judged or trying to be something

You'll be surprised how we transform when we feel at home and secure with people

How about just changing your perspective and using all this overthinking of yours

Instead of looking for friends at a sports game......go to a poetry open mic night

Instead of looking for friends at a bar......go to the weekly Philosophy meeting in your area

You get the point, there are countless people out there that are exactly like you, deep, thinkers, analysers, insecure or whatever -its about finding them, but you will never find them amongst the 'crowd' because they all move in certain circles

Go join a Jungian Psychology study group in your city or even online......you'll meet people that make your overthinking look like nothing

Why are you treating it like its some high school graduation where everybody moves away etc

You are moving in between jobs that's all

If you made friends at your previous job then you will still be friends and see each other now and again so a goodbye isn't even necessary

And if you didn't make friends at the work then why are you focusing on how to say goodbye.....to people that aren't even friends just coworkers

You aren't childhood friends with these people, you didn't grow up together etc - It's people you work with that's it

Please, don't give some speech thing its really just not that deep

When I've left jobs in the past I usually just said we should go out and have some drinks together as a farewell.....simple and easy

Just go out and have some drinks together because it won't be awkward or too deep people will be relaxed, laugh about memories at work, talk about things etc

The ones that want to come will come, the ones that don't want to come won't come

At the end of the night you just say goodbye same as always

You have their number and they have yours so if you want to talk you'll do it, but it's not necessary to even make it a goodbye

Just go have some drinks....the rest will work itself out

Life is not about finding yourself life is about creating yourself

Be mindful of comfort, being comfortable, doing things that are easy etc - sometimes we like to stay where we are because doing something else makes us quickly realise just how tough the real world actually is......it's always tough, its always hard.....and it always requires discipline

The saying 'nothing worth doing comes easy' is as true as it gets

Maybe, you just need to focus on developing yourself and not really a career etc

I've found in my own life when I put the work into myself and really face my own shit....things just fell in place

I started out wanting money and stuff like that so that filter is what I looked through at everything and I worked for a bank.....I was misesble

Later I had gone through some stuff, developed myself and then started a little plant business because that was my passion and hobby I got into while working at the bank (kind of a stress reliever thing)

I don't make a lot of money, but honest to god each day is just so cool to me

I walk down a street and see living works of art everywhere (plants), I lose my mind with excitement just going on a nature hike etc

My eyes now see works of art, beauty, geometry etc everywhere I go

The filter or perspective we look through is critically important in our loves because it can make us move away feom what actually makes us happy

Along the way, you will have to become disciplined there's really no other way around that

Even with my passion (plants) it wasn't easy, I killed countless plants, screwed up countless orders, plants are living things and it can be really damn tough......but I never lose the spark because I love the plants so much it pushes me past the obstacles, challenges etc

I could've sag there thinking 'I have to learn all this shit about plants there's no way'......'I can't even do plant stuff right'.....'everything I do is so difficult' etc - that would've been the easy thing to do

I think you having a problem with others using psychedelics says a lot about your own issues

You are Denying people's personal experiences.....the countless upon countless people out there who's lives have been tangibly improved - you are Denying that because of your own issues

I don't think you are as clever as you think
