Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.

Rules:

Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
Respect one another.
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.

Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

Yeah, I've used it to treat CPTSD. It has saved my life, not even an exaggeration, however I wish more people knew of the safeguards one should put in place (I surely didn't at first).

What would that be?

I've responded to kraftpudding above with two resources, which were rather valuable for my therapeutic trips, if you look above this comment string. Hope this helps!

Also it should go without saying that you should always test substances, if you're unable to professionally (in the UK Wedinos is a free testing service with anonymity) Ehrlich Reagents are very cheap online and allow you to quickly test a corner of a tab at home.
There are a LOT of substances with hallucinogenic effect, which can be mistaken by many for LSD however with a different effect in most cases, or more risk in others. AL-LAD, ETH-LAD, DOB/DOM, etc.

Happy tripping and be safe, remember that each journey is different for everyone but there are definitely things you can do to make the experience a good one, or even great.

Hah, I have the same shit. What's the safeguards you recommend? I found that some frequently given tips do not work well for me, especially the recommendation to have a trip sitter/not to trip alone. I have some trust issues, and other people in the room make me anxious. Honestly I even avoid mirrors because the visual delay can make smiles look demonic. But a familiar and clean environment, plenty of water and fruit, good smells, chill music and a big bottle of seroquel (to always have the option to kill the trip when it's too much) are very important for me to feel well prepared.

I could spend a while typing a bunch, however a better resource I could recommend is The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide, by James Fadiman. He was involved in legal LSD therapies right before all studies were told to abruptly end with little to no warning. I figured he would be a great resource on the subject.

Another resource is a pamphlet, which was sent to various psychologists in the '50s. You'd be able to find this on Erowid.org (sorry I'm away from my computer and it's rather late or I would directly link it, it shouldn't be difficult to find though).

Hope this helps!
