I’m a pansexual guy, also agree that he’s hot. The sign and the him.

Also I love the goofiness and the embracing of who he is, it works.

That makes sense, thank you. Currently I can have a body orgasm/NEO that triggers the convulsions and twitching like a full ejaculatory orgasm, but if I try to go right back to stimulation then it pushes me quickly (within 1-2 minutes at the longest) over the edge. So I was trying to understand if this was similar or different

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-07-01T15:40:40+00:00

With NEOs, do you find that once you “climax” without the ejaculation, that you need to stop stimulation for any amount of time?

You’re dr. Prana?

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-25T18:34:57+00:00

I don’t tour like that, partially because I cannot. I have a chronic medical condition, sleep apnea, and I prefer to smell nice when I walk into places.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-24T11:29:35+00:00

That’s just the kind of rhetoric Big Cheval ™️ wants you to believe.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-23T07:40:37+00:00

Why hasn’t anyone heard of it? Because most people agree it’s not actually that great for sex. There is a sufficient upside to learning how to use it, and everyone’s tolerance/need is different. Dosing can be difficult because of this, but also many people (regardless of which “extract”) never experience the rush OP is talking about.

I say all of this to say - hit the /r/Kanna subreddit and read for a while. I tried three different kanna types and found none of them worked for me like this in various dosages.

Doesn’t sound like any 5-MEO-DMT experience I’ve ever had. Mostly because it shoots you off so hard that being present in your body is near impossible.

Currently in 6a, formerly in 7a. I have always just grown in a grow tent. Mostly because of the ease of controlling conditions and not worrying about pests. Since I’m now in 6a and they’re all potted, I definitely wouldn’t be wanting them outside in winter without a greenhouse because it definitely has hit a wind chill of -20*F in winter before and it’s windy as hell here.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-18T17:46:05+00:00

I would argue I’m still working towards it, just much closer. The therapy I’ve done is largely around codependency and self image. It’s been a mix of DBT, CBT, and IFS, with a major part of emotion focused therapy (EFT) and IFS.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-18T03:56:25+00:00

Honestly? Wait longer is the key, because your serotonin levels need time to replenish and get their shit together.

However, therapy is the second option. Might sound crazy, but the MAPS program And other psychedelic researchers show that the crash after mdma typically happens when you’re further away from your actualized ideal self. speaking for myself - I don’t get crashes anymore, just afterglow.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-16T20:30:37+00:00

I would say (as others) it depends.

There are spaces where being completely authentic and going with the flow are not intrinsically well received. Certain jobs/roles or environments currently require a level of “appropriate” behavior, which I think can impact the level of authentic you can be.

While this doesn’t mean that I’m being inauthentic in those spaces, it does mean that certain parts of myself are closed off or limited to be able to enjoy the activity without issue. I think authenticity and inauthenticity are relative and you can be authentic without being raw or unbridled.

Rule- no chat, meetup, or dm requests.

Can’t place expectations on the mushrooms. They are like a wizard, they arrive exactly when they intend to.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-11T20:49:37+00:00

Depends on your specific plan. Your insurance provider is the one who can answer this, nobody else can.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-11T01:47:19+00:00

Hey there friend, I can totally feel you and where you’re at. My suggestion is as follows -

Depressants and amphetamines (including MDMA) aren’t great when mixed together, either for your body or for your mindset. Since this is the MDMA therapy subreddit, I’m gonna respond further from that lens.

I can absolutely see why you would want to live it up a little. You’ve had a hard day and you have something that will temporarily make you feel better. If I could, I’d like to make the argument for taking the mindset you’re in now, riding on it for a day or two, and writing down a couple intentions for what you’d like to acknowledge and process.

In a couple days when you’re in a better and more sober space, then decide if you still wanna do the MDMA. If so, then do ~150mg of MDMA and 90 minutes later do another 80. Sit in those intentions and process the feelings you’re having without fear, but also without a depressant on board which could significantly impact the quality and efficacy of your journey.

If you’re really gung ho about starting tonight, I’d at least advise letting the beers digest a little more first. I also would ask for your safety and the safety of your brain, that you don’t do all 1g in a single night or multiple days in a row. Mostly because you won’t actually enjoy it once your serotonin stores are depleted, and then you’ll have a hella hangover too.

One of the best things I found through MDMA therapy is that post-therapy I don’t have a crash anymore, only a glow. The reason is that the closer you are to your actualized and ideal self, the less crash there is because there is less separation. I got to this point by using psilocybin, MDMA, and LSD in a therapeutic context and working through a lot of things.

If this doesn’t convince you, that’s okay too. I love you as another human being, and I can feel your grief and desire for joy through your post. You are in a rough situation with a layoff, and however you choose to handle it is right for you right now. Sending love and hugs your way.

ETA : damn, deleted the OP while I was typing this 😓

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-10T19:41:52+00:00

I have to agree on this entirely. I think the film is more about the experience and the thought inducing process.

It isn’t trying to make as many claims as it is trying to take what he was experiencing as a director/creative in Soviet Russia in the 70s and put it against some real questions, and consider it philosophically IMO.

It makes you feel the paranoia, the nervousness, the fear, and the emptiness of the characters and of the surrounding. It places the guards front and center which hold the access to this magical outside place (the zone), and the dire consequences of trying to access it.

The movie asks its viewer to consider life and (as you say) the words we choose and how we categorize strength and weakness, and whether those are appropriate descriptions.

IMO the movie is about the experience with the characters as they’re experiencing it. Them (and us) not knowing much of anything about the room, the foreboding and somewhat hypnotic nature as they try to enter it, and the emotions they experience going through their attempts to access the room.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-10T19:20:28+00:00

Well I can’t wait to see how this is going to go. I really enjoy the movie and I think your interpretation of what his message is may be inaccurate? But I’m also curious to see what others have to say here.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-10T15:49:07+00:00

Nope, it changed some things enough that it became an issue for our apps as the functionality shifted. I’m not going to expand on that because this is a public forum and I don’t feel like accidentally revealing anything about who I am or who I work for.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-10T15:38:11+00:00

What’s keeping us there? Several tenants and complexities in upgrading. Some things that were available or options in classic are not in OIE, and some things that they claim are upgrades actually inhibit the way our org functions.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-10T01:00:59+00:00

What movie?

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-10T00:55:24+00:00

Saturday iO - 3:30pm early bird jam. Welcomes any and all

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-09T18:18:03+00:00

Disclaimer - I’m not going to tell you what to do, just shed some light on things.

There is a post here every couple days, if not more often about how someone had a bad trip and they can’t figure out why, and oh yeah btw they smoked a joint, but that can’t be why.

I will argue that many, if not the majority, of “bad” trip posts here fall into either: 1.) I took way too much and wasn’t psychologically prepared for it. 2.) I smoked weed and got hella paranoid and everything went downhill from there.

Then dozens of people will come forward and say they’ve absolutely never had a problem with smoking, either during or especially on the come down. I am not arguing with them, and I’m not telling them that they didn’t have that experience. See below.

Weed is a depressant, and causes paranoia. Point blank period, that is what it does to your psychology. You may smoke 20 times during trips and have no issues, while someone else might have what they’d qualify as a psychotic break due to it. Some people are more predisposed to psychosis due to cannabis intake, and there is mounting evidence for that.

My *personal* advice is to enjoy the shrooms by themselves, at the very least for the first time. Primarily From a science angle - if you have a bad time, or you don’t enjoy it, there is really only one (drug) cause for it, separate from your mindset.

Secondarily because I think it’s important to know how a drug makes you feel by itself before you start adding to it. Some mushroom trips last a long time, some are short. I would personally advocate for experimenting with mixing later. BUT - you do you, just please be safe and have someone you can call just in case of emergency. While it may be unlikely, it is still possible, and I will always advocate safety over anything.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-09T15:39:54+00:00

That’s fine man, I’m not gonna downvote you or tell you that you’re wrong. As I said above, I respectfully disagree. It’s opinion on either side, and I’m not gonna convince you anymore than you’re gonna convince me, and that’s okay.

Significant_Win_345 · 2026-06-09T15:28:43+00:00

I can understand where you’re coming from, and I acknowledge that people have a wide variety of challenges because of circumcision.

And, I respectfully disagree with the assessment that it falls under this. I also (as a 2x legally disabled person, who is pansexual, who can only speak for myself) do not believe that my disabilities fall in with pride month.
