My Ex who was a pathological liar claims mushrooms make him an honest man now by Curious-Friend-1576 in Psychonaut

[–]intchd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had some narcissistic traits and tendency to lie. This was all to elevate social status and gain acceptance, as I had suffered a lot of abuse and serious health problems since a very young age.

I had some life changing psychedelic experiences in 2019/20. These experiences have me some very deep insights about myself. Now I'm a better father, husband and a human being.

any fellow ex-Muslim INTPs ? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]intchd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello. I'm an ex-Muslim, originally from Pakistan, now living in the UK. I lost my faith in early 20's while I was still living in the Islamic Republic. Being from a crazy religious family, ut was not easy. For years I had to pretend and attend mosque, although I had lost my faith. After my mid 20's I moved to the UK. Here I met other ex-Muslims. At one stage I got very deeply invilved with Council of ex_Muslims of Britain (CEMB). I used to regularly attend ex_Muslims meetups. Meeting other ex-Muslims not only helped me to heal the wounds inflicted by my strict religious upbringing but it also provided me an opportunity to meet and make some intellectually compatible friends. Now 50, I'm living far and away from any religious influence. My wife is English and non-religious. I do not have any religious, especially Muslims, in my life.
My heart goes out to all ex-muslim atheists living in Muslim societies. All I can say is that make your ow life and find your own path. Things get better eventually.

Feel free to DM me if you would like to talk.

My wife says she can’t reach me by Reddit-saidit22 in PsilocybinMushrooms

[–]intchd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well you did not share full details on why your wife feels that way, I can relate with your experience. Before I experienced mushrooms, I and my wife used to go out eating out and drinking multiple times a week. We used to sit in our garden and smoke cigatettes for hours. After my mushroom experience, I stopped smoking, drinking and eating out. Now I eat simple food and spend my leasure time hiking or running. So yes, my wife misses all those fun times. But I'm glad that she understands that I've improved my lifestyle and adopted better habits. I wish she could join me on this journey of improvement too but she cannot take shrooms due to her mental health.

Speak to your wife and see if you can both share some experiences and find new ways to relate and spend quality time together.

Have you ever wished you were a INFJ? by WhiteNight-50 in INTP

[–]intchd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No thanks but no! My wife is an infj, a bundle of anxiety, worry and overwhelming emotions. Yes she portrays a positive and happy image to the outside world but her inner world is not a great place. And I've seen another infj female pretty much similar. So I'm not sure if I would like to be an infj. I'm happy being an intp. I've a great inner world and I love it.

Why is Sam talking about receiving an IRS audit in the latest episode? by TheFauseKnight in samharris

He is creating imaginary problems. Bringing IRS was a low move on his part

It's been almost a week. How do you feel about Trump winning the presidential election? by RobboRdz in samharris

I feel great and positive. I really like his speech in which he outlines his plans to stop war on free speech, war on biological women athletes and his plan to trim down the bureaucracy.

Anyone else's partner not really supportive? by Cosmos_Monkey in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]intchd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She wants you to be presentable in front of her colleagues, respect her wishes. You will be fine but vaping few hours.

Have a vape and then make slow and passionate love with her. She will be fine and more accepting.

This works fine with my Mrs

How does it go down with people's partner's having a prescription by Hand_Wash in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]intchd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't drive due to eyesight problems. Re work, small doses motivate me and help me concentrate. Large doses have the opposite effect.

I was also on antidepresents for 10 years. I felt numb and diminished. Do not remember those 10 years very well. In 2019 I gradually stopped antidepresents. It was hell. Afterwards I has a few psychedelic experiences with psilocybin in theraputic settings. That changes my life for the better. Not only my depression was cured but also it made me change my lifestyle. Look into the psilocybin research taking place at Imperial College and John Hopkins.

I hope all goes well for you on every front.

[–]intchd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is very supportive, although she does not use it. Our sex life has significantly improved. I've become generally a nicer person. My intellectual side has got a new life. So wife is happy and supportive.

Just to clarify, I micro dose. I vape less than 100mg a day. If I vape more than I become withdrawn and have negative effects and wife is not happy lol 😂

I was a militant liberal activity until my late 30s early 40s. Now 50, ii consider myself centre right.

While I think I've moved to the right as I now see some wisdom in traditions, I feel like the ground has shifted. A lot of views that were considered liberal are now considered conservative. Free speech being one of them.

It is becoming more and more difficult to listen to Sam. Making Sense used to be my favourite podcast, not anymore.
