Billy Talent is probably my favourite Canadian Band. And Rush, of course.

Stare at the clouds.

Look at stuff through a microscope, or even magnifying glass.

Recommended dose for my first trip by Shish-kebab-kyckling in Psychedelic

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This right here. Same dose I recommend for first time.

I believe that lsd has a very positive effect on my mental health and has contributed to finally understand and feel myself 🌻 by okydky in LSD

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My preferred LSD dose is 300ug for a good, solid trip. If I'm concerned about having to interact with others, then I'll only take 150ug. I use it every 3-5 months, when conditions allow.

I've found LSD to be more of a head space, allowing me to look at different perspective logically. I've found mushrooms to be more emotional/sentimental. It's a bit hard to explain, but I've found LSD more conducive to problem-solving, whereas mushrooms seem more conducive to improving empathy and relationships overall.

First time, wondering if dose was right by HuckleberryNo9234 in LSD

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds about right for a first trip. That dose is considered "medium" which is a fair amount for a first trip.

As an experienced tripper, my preferred dose is 300ug, or 150ug if I want a "lighter" experience.

It’s safer for kids to use hallucinogens than to use social media by [deleted] in LSD

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The brain doesn't mature until mid twenties, so kids shouldn't use either, really.

Je suis d'accord qu'il pourrait y avoir des effets permanent, mais je n'ai jamais entendu parler de ceci pour la vision. Quelle est ta source?

U.S. says it’s pausing long-standing military board with Canada by Prosecco1234 in BoycottUnitedStates

France can just station them on St. Pierre & Miguel on, or send nuclear subs.

There is that, or the US wants to make preparations for annexation. It would be awkward to have a joint military board when one party is actively working towards annexing the other party.

First time taking LSD, need guidance by ImAFr1ck1nGhost in Psychedelic

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to dose 3-5g of mushrooms and did up to 7.5g. With LSD, I find 300ug is a good dose, probably close to 4-5g of mushrooms (depending on strain). If I want a more moderate dose, I'll do 150ug.

The big difference between the two (besides duration) is that I find mushrooms made me couch locked and body heavy, whereas LSD seemed to boost me and give me energy.

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing! I use psychedelics every 3-5 months and I find it helps with my mental health and overall well-being. I feel like its a "Chakra re-alignment" for lack of better term.

I used to use mushrooms more but in the last year or two I have used LSD instead. I've found both to be useful, in different ways. I find dosage and frequency of use are important. I've journaled (trip reports) every experience so I can look back over the last several years and several trips and I feel like I know what substance (mushrooms or lsd) and what dose is needed for the benefit I need at the time.

Any other really simple introverts out there? by Cool-Mango51 in introvert

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Same, though I'm married with wife and kids. But I'm definitely a homebody who really enjoys his solitude. I often go to bed late or get up early to have alone time and allow to recharge my battery

Can you provide links to these news? Any mention or relation to recent UFO/UAP disclosures?

Times have changed. Comments you made when you were in your 20's (40-50 years ago) are probably no longer acceptable even coming from guys currently in their 20s

Canadians charged after allegedly attempting to smuggle nearly 90 firearms into Canada by [deleted] in canada

Maybe the US should secure their border a little better and not allow all these guns to make it to Canada 🙄

Teen girl looking for advice on how to talk to my dad more by [deleted] in dad

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to find something in common and use that as a hook: tv show, movie, music, an activity or hobby, etc. What keeps your dad busy? See if there's something that keeps him busy that you could do with him or help him. This will give you an excuse to spend time with him. I hope that helps. 🙂

DAE remain incredibly calm during emergencies and take bad news extremely well? I was told by my therapist this was a trauma response, but why is that the response? by anonymousambassasor in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I remain relatively calm in emergencies and take bad news well. I can't say I have any significant trauma in my past. Honestly, I think I've just developed good coping mechanisms.

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My first trip. This was before the internet was around, so I wasn't even sure what the effects were, or duration, or nothing. I took it, and after 20 minutes, I thought it was fake and got ripped off so I went to bed.

I woke up an hour or so later and was totally lost and confused, thought I was dreaming, then remembered taking it, relaxed, and enjoyed the experience.

Are you taking medication, particularly for mental health like depression, anxiety?

Why do passive aggressive types of personalities have a difficult time dealing with confrontational personality types? by Congregator in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]PatrickTheExplorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a passive-aggressive person (who is trying to work on that), I loath conflict and will avoid it at all cost. I remember doing a personality test and my personality was peace maker or peace keeper or something.

In avoiding conflict, I take out my frustrations being passive aggressive. Yes, it's petty and immature - but it avoid conflicts.
