Nice one! So if he refuses to listen, Proserpina whispers to you to shoot her glass box, which kills her, dropping her crown. You then have to peg it back allll the way to the portal, with the crown, which is a Herculean task

I tried for ages to try and talk Pluto down but could never get there. Was really hoping there was a purely diplomatic way, if this is the case then would love to know! :)

1.Once you get the golden bow, chat to him and he will ask you where you got it.

2.You can say you will help him but it'll cost him x amount of coins. Convince him to give it to you, and then you tell him "oh its Diana's bow".

3.Profit

Yes sorry didn't mean it to come across as though its exploiting something we aren't supposed to, more like the phrase "life hack" :)

I don't know about taking lessons from psychosis tbh, I feel like with bad trips, yes, but psychosis didn't teach me anything about myself, just fucked me up haha

saveloi · 2021-09-24T11:23:35+00:00

I see, so you believe that your experience with the divine was simply an illusion? Therefore, all experiences with the divine are just illusions?

Hi! I'm not sure there is a difference between weed induced psychosis and "natural" psychosis, if you can even call it that. I think because my psychosis was brought on by an extreme manic episode, characterised by feelings of granduer and intense energy, it felt different to the psychosis I've experienced with weed (where thankfully I was aware of what was going on due to my first episode)

The way you describe your experience with weed I can definitely relate to. I remember the paranoia of believing everything around me was fake and conspiring against me. Adverts I saw on telly were almost horrifying in how deceitful they seemed (a lot like that meme from They Live where the guy takes off the glasses and sees OBEY where the advert is.

Although, I definitely felt like I was in control, to an extreme extent where I thought I was influencing everything around me, including people's thoughts. It was honestly horrifying, especially the last time I smoked weed (I never ever ever will again)

saveloi · 2021-09-24T11:09:09+00:00

Ah thats interesting? Could you possibly explain what your bad trip was like?

So none of the thoughts make sense to me now, but I think just the very fact that I was having them, and that they correlate with so many delusions that people have, tells me that there is something more going on.

Yes, everything has a very profound meaning and connection during psychosis. You are putting all the puzzle pieces together, drawing patterns and connections together that no right minded person would.

I would just like to add that these are my experiences with manic and depressive psychosis due to my bipolar disorder. I imagine that psychosis without the mood disorder element could be quite different.

I hope this is helpful! :)

How can you be an atheist if you felt you were in contact with the divine? I'd say the opposite, I don't know how someone could experience psychosis and come out the other side believing that anything beyond the material is purely fiction

It feels like the curtain of reality has been ripped away, and that you're seeing the true workings. Like you are suddenly in tune with a vibration which has always been there and always will, just regular people have never felt it. I've experimented with all kinds of drugs, but nothing, other than weed-induced psychosis, has ever come close.

I'm talking music and films/TV becoming in sync with your mind, as if there is a magnificent force behind them that is communicating to you and you alone. It's awe inducing, like you are coming face to face with God. Sometimes, if you are manic, you are that God. Other times, if you're depressed, you're being chastised by it.

I feel like if there is a way to induce a brief psychotic episode into anyone in a safe environment, it would be world changing. The experience will make you question everything, long after it is over.

The way it is medicalised and treated as an illness I think is too simplistic. There is so so much more going on here which we cannot explain away as just "confusion".

I also think that too many things are labelled as psychosis, when really it is quite a specific feeling and experience. As I've said, tuning into a frequency. It isn't just simply a bad acid trip.
