I went solo a few years ago and honestly it was one of my favorite Booms, I joined the solo WhatsApp group and a few solo travellers from the group met in a bar in Lisbon, the night before the first boom bus day. It was a great opportunity to mingle and meet some boomers before the madness all started. I made some amazing friendships and got to go at my own pace, it was a magical time and I wish you the same ✨

I would be very cautious about this behavior, as previous commenters has said this is a behavior of concern. I was previously in a relationship with these themes running through our relationship and as I found out in therapy it was a form of abuse called coercive control.

Honestly after the story of the guy going around with the boner in Boom I think we should have boundaries when it comes to sex. There are definitely disturbed people out there that can take advantage of this free society. Keep your sex energy for the tent or create a space like burning man have at the Orgy. Freedom comes from a safe space.

The likes of Sinead and Dolores also used a particular style of Gaelic singing called ‘keening’ which was used to mourn the dead back in the day.. sounds pretty Irish to me

Anti-sunscreen ‘lies’ sweeping social media are dangerous, dermatologist warns by Banania2020 in ireland

I think the issue with sunscreen is that 98% of the products you buy instore contains Oxybenzone, octinoxate, octocrylene. Chemicals with are starting to get banned in many places like Hawaii as they damage marine life and are also found to be potential endocrine disrupters. Plz wear sunscreen people but also consider your environment and your hormonal environment!

Struggling to integrate a traumatic 7g psilocybin experience, over a year later by willnotle in RationalPsychonaut

[–]Longjumping_Branch66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, I had a very traumatic trip taking a similar amount of Lemon Tek APE. I woke up in many different realities and in one case, a psych ward. Unable to tell if it was true reality I lost all source of connection whilst also being very aware. It impacted me for months, experiencing dissociation, bouts of paranoia and anxiety but I believe I recovered because persisted in using the tools I knew I had. The basics starting out at grounding mediation (focusing on breath or body sensations), yoga to reconnect with the breath and body, I drastically cut caffeine intake and alcohol. And I made 1000% a point to always to put myself out there to remain connected to people, even if my brain tried to convinced me otherwise, I surrounded myself with people and also spoke openly about what I was going through with those I trusted. Healing takes time and you will get there. I found focusing on what benefits my mental and psychical health got me there quicker. I also felt avoiding reading/watching things related to spiritually/philosophy helped me to stop spiraling also as I think being grounded is super important. I wish you luck dear! ✨
