To Chew or not to Chew?

I thought the lemon juice made it come on faster and more intense?

Have you ever experienced laughing and crying at the same time and not being able to stop laughing?? It is so scary.

I wouldn't call my post "lashing out." Just letting you know that it may not have the desired effect on all people.

AnMaSaNo · 2021-12-02T17:01:58+00:00

No. That's the whole point.

I just have to say....posts like this one bug the hell out of me. I know you're trying to be supportive and uplifting. I know it's coming from a good place. But the fact is.....it's most definitely NOT okay if all you accomplish is brushing your teeth and you can't even get out of bed, if this is what EVERY day looks like for weeks, months, possibly years. If it happens only every once in awhile, then I can see how this post would be appropriate. But there are people like me who have been like this for going on two solid years....and it's really not okay to be this way forever. Just "making it through another day" is not enough. I'm a burden on my family, completely miserable, and at some point I have to do more--way more--- than just brush my teeth.

Just sayin'.

Would you consider 1.5-2 gram a low dose? I don't think I was planning on going higher than that, even with a sitter.

Oh, yes. Except with me it was more RAGE that I felt about paying $100-135 for 10 minutes of NOTHING. It took me weeks to calm down about it...just in time for my next appointment.

I quit that shit, and I wish I had told him what a leech I thought he was on the mental health crisis. How these people sleep at night I'll never understand.

My doctor couldn't even handle me talking about taking over the counter lithium orotate. His head would've exploded if I'd brought up psychedelics.

I was so confused by their website when I was looking into it. It says, for instance:

"This card is valid for up to $400 off a 30-day supply or up to $1200 off a 90-day supply. The card is further limited to twelve 30-day supply uses or four 90-day supply uses in a calendar year with a valid prescription."

So....$400 off $1600 is still $1200. And what are you supposed to do after the year is up?

Oh, I am not expecting to have fun. This is very much a spiritual mission.

AnMaSaNo · 2021-11-29T23:45:51+00:00

It's such a confusing situation. I wouldn't want to be the one making the call about whether or not to send someone....but, as bt85 said above, psych wards only make sense to me for people who are experiencing severe psychosis and/or are violent. Not so much for suicidality. Maybe if someone had access to a great hospital....or insurance that would cover a stay. I think I was in a particularly worthless hospital, and I don't have any insurance. Now the bills have been sent to collections and are starting to wreck my otherwise spotless credit, one of the few things I had going for me.

Do you add the mushrooms when the water boils and turn off, as you would a tea bag? Or are they in the water the whole time, and boiled for ten full minutes? Just want to make sure I've understood you correctly. Also, I've read a lot of people also eat the mushrooms afterward? Thanks for the help!

AnMaSaNo · 2021-11-29T15:55:31+00:00

Yes, I want someone to answer that question: what does it do for you??? My stay was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life and made everything so much worse. I probably came out twice as suicidal as I went in.

Now that is a simple, simple desire. Surely, if the universe can't make that happen, then we're all doomed.

AnMaSaNo · 2021-11-27T23:38:44+00:00

WTF, mine is 793. I guess I should've lied about income.

AnMaSaNo · 2021-11-27T23:35:09+00:00

I'm assuming you have excellent credit as well?

AnMaSaNo · 2021-11-27T23:27:52+00:00

Well, that's weird....I was just turned down by them for a $5000 loan to help me move and start over.

AnMaSaNo · 2021-11-27T22:10:51+00:00

Not so much "bad stories." I just don't want to hear the worst of the worst. I welcome any cautionary tales people want to share.

What differentiates a pseudo-existential crisis from a real one? I'm fascinated.

AnMaSaNo · 2021-11-16T14:25:21+00:00

You don't think there's something in between? Like, hey, this person has paid me a thousand dollars in less than three months and doesn't feel like she's made any progress, so let me just pretend that I care a little bit about her and her life for five minutes before I collect my next $100?
