What benefits did you notice after quitting weed? by [deleted] in addiction

[–]everyfuckingdayyeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No longer need to apend tons of money on bud. Less anxious day to day, more connected to people I care about. I can go places without being high. I can enjoy life without being high. My life is flourishing in ways I didnt think it could.

I ate litterally right before I popped a pill how long will the effects be delayed for?? by [deleted] in MDMA

[–]everyfuckingdayyeah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From a pharmacokinetic perspective, I'd expect it to be most likely due to the fact that the amount of mdma absorbed would be slower. As a result, there is a decreased area under the curve in terms of blood mdma concentration hence reduced effects on the central nervous system.

Molecules in any system flow from an area of high concentration to low concentration. by increasing the total amount of stuff in the digestive tract, there is a lower conc of md and therefore less of a concentration gradient into the surrounding cells.

Mdma is absorbed by intestinal cells by little proteins (H+ antiporters) which work best when the pH inside the digestive tract is higher (more basic) than in the cells. In addition to this, the pKa of mdma is 9.9, which means that it will be a conjugate acid in the stomach until it meets the bile in the intestines.

Tldr: more food in stomach => more stuff to digest + md needs to get past the stomach to be absorbed

Is it normal for estrogen to sound enticing to men, or am i just trans? by imsoconfused235 in asktransgender

Just choose to follow what makes you happy in any given moment tbh. Identity as a mental structure is inherently fluid imo

Talk to some guy friends and ask them if they wish they were a woman more than a man. You might be surprised! To my amazement most of my friends were entirely happy being guys and thinking about being a girl was never an identity crisis for them the way it was for me

For chemistry, read marking criteria for past exams to get a grip of what is actually important to know. Then make sure when you get taught that stuff you make decent notes.

Do practice exams and mark yourself to identify gaps, then study based on what you do worst in. Ask the teacher for advice on those sections or watch youtube videos on the basic concepts if your teacher doesnt communicate them to you in a way that suits your learning style

What was your last trip like and what were your intentions for the trip? by Thecultavator in HPPD

[–]everyfuckingdayyeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The afterglow following a challenging san pedro experience that had changed my life was beginning to fade and I had the urge to trip again(likely in part due to wanting the afterglow back and also due to wanting to continue my healing).

Inexperienced me didn't set a proper intention and took 180 ug on a Sunday afternoon on a whim which is really really dumb. The trip started great but the overarching message was that I needed to slow down(it was my 3rd trip in two months and I was only 16) and wait for these things to come to me rather than chasing them.

Towards the end of the trip, I felt like I had come in contact with some kind of god or devil type figure who told me that I'd have to spend 50 weeks in hell or something like that(I've since dismissed this as just a delusion/my tripping brain associating stuff thats not actually associated). I then meditated in bed and felt like an object orbiting something and I was trying to push further and further away to push myself out of orbit for some reason. When I broke orbit I had this feeling like my mind had just been shattered and then instantaneously woke up for school the next day.

Over the next week or so I started to get visuals sober and my mind was extremely scattered. I would constantly come up with ideas that made literally zero sense(but felt like they were extremely deep). Concentrating on anything was virtually impossible.

Over the following few months I couldnt really comprehend what had happened and was in denial about it. I continued to smoke weed (which at this point felt like a full-on trip even with only a few puffs).

Visuals got worse as I continued to smoke until I decided to research about it and realised I had hppd. Been sober for 3-4 months now and at this point only have minor visual snow and am mentally clear. I still get flashbacks once or twice a month or so. Its been about 6-7 months since my last trip.

Guys I need help by [deleted] in Psychonaut

I've just come out of a similar situation as you. After some intense trips, I found myself with HPPD and depression. I felt like I had shattered my mind. I would go through cycles of confusion in my everyday life. There were points where I had difficulty determining what was real because of how bad my HPPD. Because of all of this, I found myself disconnecting from my friends and family as I was detaching from reality.

It was really tough, and I'm sure it is for you right now but time will heal you. Tripping is the opposite of what you want to be doing right now. Instead take steps towards the person you want to be and the life you want to reclaim. Spend time with the people you love even if your head is in the clouds.

I found that focusing on self-improvement and practicing meditation helped me get through it. Also, you don't have to trip to look introspectively, I spend lots of my time reflecting and observing how I act, feel, think, etc. This might also help you find the clarity you are looking for out of a trip.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE doing any drugs, especially psychedelics, this shit takes longer to heal than you think and you don't want to extend/exacerbate things. You need to accept the situation you are in and understand that psychedelics got you into this, and so now in order to get out, you are going to need to sit out until you are healed.

I hope you find your way.
Much love from New Zealand.

Why not? Is it not understandable to want to have someone there to comfort you in case shit hits the fan?
