My last experience with Psilocybin had kind of an opposite effect. I ate short of an eighth. I was to the point where I craved more. To fill the void I smoked an excessive amount of THC,(normally a bowl can last me a whole day.) And I drank way to much.(I'm not a drinker at all. Normally I cannot drink more then a couple beers/shots, before I dont want abide any more. Typically once or twice a year.) Though the cigarette thing kind of made sense. I'm normally a heavy chain smoker. Cigarettes were unfulfilling. Every time I lit a cigarette, I felt like I preferred it to be a joint. Often my cigarette use is to balance out a weed high.

Can I just say that this man is EFFORTLESSLY explaining something that has a pretty serious social stigma in a way that is approachable and informed, and is doing so in a way that is not condescending or know-it-all in any way. Simply an incredible job.

Schizophrenic here. I tried, and used lsd for years during my lowest point in life, and it helped me - my hallucinations, visual and auditory, became much more bearable. Distorted human shapes and screaming women in my ceiling turned into cats running about, and whispers telling me to hurt myself turned into nothing more than unintelligible murmurs. It helped me accept myself and it opened up much needed and new thought patterns. I quit acid when I was in a better place, when it no longer benefitted me. Even though it helped me personally, I do not recommend people try it if they don't know what they're doing - and I especially do not recommend it to people with schizophrenia. I don't think it's a miracle drug or anything, rather, I believe that there are benefits and dangers when it comes to lsd. My experience is not universal.

My favorite part of the "first trip" story as told by Dr. Hofmann in his book LSD: My Problem Child, is the next day: "Exhausted, I then slept, to awake next morning refreshed, with a clear head, though still somewhat tired physically. A sensation of well-being and renewed life flowed through me. Breakfast tasted delicious and gave me extraordinary pleasure. When I later walked out into the garden, in which the sun shone now after a spring rain, everything glistened and sparkled in a fresh light. The world was as if newly created.

I just had my first experience with golden teachers, it was really great! I loved it.

Michael Pollan is such an important figure within the psychedelic academia. He somehow manages to explain the inexplicable in an approachable way and that is an important element of the foundation of integrating psychedelics into society. They saved my life twice and have given me more than I could've ever asked for, made me a better person in every aspect imaginable. I could never express how much gratitude I have for them.

Is there any doubt as to whether Man investigates only his enemy? You know, I have a fake quote (which sometimes I say that Eric Clapton said) that I tell people, which is, "They call me a hippie because the hip is where the gun is attached". I used to "go all out", but I never had a gun, ya know ! kzread.info/dash/bejne/c2uu0dedirDehqg.html

This video is a testament to how "mainstream" and normative present-day attitudes are toward psychedelics. Even WIRED can confidently and proudly arrange and produce a video such as this one. This symbolizes a huge shift in public opinion (and de-stigmatization) of psychedelic substances. This is good news, and the hope for progress toward legalization. Marijuana is leading the charge, and has a long way to go. Psychedelics won't be far behind. The next decade is going to be interesting.

Be around good friends in a friendly place. Avoiding drunk people is a good general rule for psychedelics in my opinion. Like he said, you have to be willing to ride the wave and accept that you're going wherever the trip takes you - if you can't go with the flow you create stress and that's the trigger of a bad experience. Also, if you have mental health issues, be honest with yourself and strongly consider skipping the psychedelics unless you'll be guided through the experience by a very knowledgeable person. Those who have bad experiences a lot of the time are those that should have passed altogether.

I had a friend growing up that was like our psychs guru, he was constantly tripping and he was who we went to if we had any questions about a psych or its effects. Somehow, someway, in his 2nd year of taking them constantly, he just kinda, broke. Found himself in what he described as a "perma-trip" For the next few months it was a lot of me and my other roommate having to tell him what were hallucinations and what weren't, he started developing friends that he'd go "hang out with" and we'd find him sitting in his car talking to himself down the road. We were a house of heavy drug users at the time so we wrote it off as just his "perma-trip" and that hopefully it would end soon. The next month he was diagnosed with schizophrenia, and was given meds that culled the hallucinations quite a bit, and we had our friend back. Basically what I'm trying to say is that if you or a friend ever end up in what you think is a "perma-trip" PLEASE go see a psychiatrist. Our friend was lucky enough to be saved but schizophrenia can cause a lot of issues if left undiagnosed and untreated. Please be safe.

Thr value of "i dont know" is immeasurable, I love how when hes not sure of something he prettyu much tells it straight up. the people yall have on here are always amazing.

When I was just out of high school, I was offered lsd and the people I was hanging out with were very insistent that if I had any fear or anxiety going in, I shouldn't do it. On top of all the other warnings, timeframe needed, accidentally revealing deep secrets, dangers of off perception, they explained all the pros and cons and then said "of that scares you, don't take it". I always respected that

Peyote can, literally, take years to grow again once it's picked. A lot of people didn't realize that back in the 1960s, and a lot of, "Hippy" types went out to the desert and looked for patches of peyote to pick. Due to this, the Native Americans then had a very hard time finding peyote for their religious ceremonies. Not cool at all. Some people are very ignorant.

I have to admit I've done exactly that in the past, giving advice about a first mushroom experience and assuming that it would go well for the subject because they knew the ground rules. Which turned out not to be the case, he receded inwards, which isn't something that I do, I tend to be very emotional on shrooms, but they tend to make me more extroverted, where I'm normally an introvert. With him, he got super introverted and sank deep into himself and then kinda panicked, not a great first experience and not what I'd hoped for him. He didn't have a bad trip per se, but I was grateful he had a babysitter to help him through it. I don't recommend doing psychedelics without a sitter, especially if you're inexperienced. Milage definitely varies! Edit: The true psychonauts are people like Sasha Shulgin, may he rest in peace. His books TIHKAL and PIHKAL are an absolute treasure trove, and there's also the Erowid vaults, though some of the personal experiences probably need to be taken with a pinch of salt lol.

My first time trying DMT, I had no idea what it was. I had no preconceived ideas or concepts of what to expect. My friend just told me that it was intense, and that I would have a short but interesting trip and might have some visuals. I was taken down into a world of small elf like people who were apparently already there although I couldn’t see them before, and they were very happy and excited to have me as a guest. They showed me their houses and how they lived. It felt like I was there for an hour or two, but when I “came back” it hadn’t been very long at all. I was very surprised and somewhat confused about how that happened; it was very unexpected! It wasn’t until years later through youtube and internet research that I started hearing about these little elves being a common theme with DMT trips. Very strange!

Clinical setting is not great by default: it’s too clinical. You need to feel cozy, not lights blazing in your eyes. I’m familiar with the clinical trials they did in the UK, and I wasn’t a fan of their setting either. For example, their playlist that they played for your trip was cliché hippy music. Some people like that, but I wouldn’t have a great trip with this. As an experienced tripster, I’d advise either to join a psychedelic retreat (they aren’t strictly legal, but people do them anyways, they usually have amazing settings and experienced trip sitters), or find a good friend you’d like to do it with and just go for it 😊

Had a similar ego death as his, was going through a rough period freshman year of college was in my dorm and me and my friends took a few mushrooms about 2.5 grams each. And we are pretty experienced in psychedelics. At the peak of my trip, i go into my room and i saw myself sleeping on my bed, I went up to myself and I was dead. I went into the living room and started crying to my roommates. They were also on mushrooms so they gave me a hug, made me feel loved, and it is still the most life changing experience. I now am on my last year of college living a great life.

I absolutely love how inquisitive Michael Pollan's mind is, and what a fantastic critical thinker he is too. This is such a great example of just explaining what we know and don't know in a down-to-earth way. It's exciting to see psychedelics being explored in more mainstream channels.

It is to his credit that he offers answers that are both logical and practical. He has a vast understanding of the topic as a journalist. I value his objectivity, especially for someone who appreciates psychedelics so much. I enjoy how accurately he responds to every question with "we don't know."

So, when do we get to see him review hallucination/trip scenes in movies?

I will never forget the time i combined Isd, shrooms and weed I can tell you EXACTLY when my brain restarted fresh like a computer with too much tabs open and old stuff you dont need anymore I was doing smth and all of a sudden i not only forgot what i was doing, i forgot my name, location, everything for a few seconds just standing still And i felt completely different And once it was all done i realised my social anxiety which i had for over 10 years is gone (i used to break out sweating just talking to people) And the neuroplasticity part is definitely true.

Chemical pharmacology is what you want, double major if you can in Botany, if using plants to heal interests you.

Do it! I wish I was your age again and could treat my own mental health issues that manifested at age 16 with psychedelics. But at the same time I'm grateful that I'm not too old to miss the full benefits.

Hey young adult here with ADD that went untreated for 19 years. LSD literally saved my life in the sense that I no longer had a desire to end my unbearable reality I was living. Now being 20 years old it's been a long and hard road but thankfully now I'm doing a whole lot better being treated properly by professionals and living my best life.

Your brain isn't even developed yet. Stop taking psychedelics. My VERY SEVERE ADHD lessened significantly by the age of 25, and by 27 i had a solid grip in my life. It's much more related to your pre-frontal cortex development (in which you are stunted if you have ADHD) Than anything else. You should workout, meditate, and take care of your sleep schedule, and then wait until you are 25, AND THEN you can take LSD for its therapeutic benefits, but only if you have already tried therapy.

This guy is so smart and you can just tell he has a such a deep understanding of psychedelics, the human mind, and our world and the way it works. Great of y’all to get this dude on here for us to watch and see, I truly believe this can educate and help so many people question themselves and there thoughts and mind and views on things and try to improve there lives.

Great video and great questions and answers. What’s always helped me is to trip with someone I know, and who has experience. Also, I have a friend or two that don’t trip and know how to watch over tripping people. Also putting myself in a safe and comfortable location or locations so I don’t have to worry about unneeded things.

I was a addicted to several substances at the same time. I was mostly in opioids Roxy's cocaine and heroine mostly but there were several others. I decided that I was going to mix roughly 5 grams of mdma cocaine and 5 gel tabs. I don't know the strength of the LSD but what I do know is a put a face to my addiction. I looked into the tv and I looked at myself And I began to wave and morph into this evil distorted creature and I finally got a coherent thought and it was just "I don't like you". After that I cried for 3 or 4 hours with my mother just apologizing for the way I worried them with my drug problem. Now I'm 6 months clean( except for marijuana). I'm not a saint lol

This video and namely the talk of mental health made my day. I live with Depression, ADHD and am heavily dissociative almost all the time. I'm medicated and on top of things for the most part. But a tiny little amount of salvia actually takes all my trillions of thoughts and the haywire clusterfuck inside my own head, wraps it up in a neat bow, and I'm able to actually -think- and hold onto thoughts for more than a second, and my anxiety lifts for a few weeks afterwards. Hallucinogenics don't really do anything to me in terms of actually causing sensory experiences, but the positive effects are enough to make me consider bringing it up with my doctor sometime.

Pollan’s book How to Change Your Mind is one of the most interesting nonfiction books to come out in recent years.

I think psychedelics are disruptive to society and they should be! Our way of life, our society, is a major reason why we have so many issues with mental health. Psychedelics help you see beyond all of our societal constructs and pressures.

LSD and mushrooms completely changed my whole outlook on life..I became a better version of myself. This experience gave me a lot of confidence about myself and a bunch of bad thought/behaviour pattern were broken. One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands alot..it gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine, this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip. The main reason for the trip was my severe Depression and it definitely helped me. Before all I could do was lay in bed, now I am trying to rebuild my life one step at a time which wasn't possible before.

Not all people are affected however. Some actually thrive in this socioeconomic system, prob more than ever before.

I can confirm that it is the perception of the drug. I had extreme geometric and sharp patterns and visuals emerge when taking LSD and then I used mushrooms and had a different experience, which also changed my perception of LSD. My next trip was completely different than any other LSD experience I had, including a decrease in the geometric patterns and how sharp they were.

This guy is who we need more of, he doesn't look like the kind of guy who's gonna tell you about the potential medical uses for psychedelics, he appears very professional, and I believe that can allow him to slip into the thoughts of those very stubborn on the topic and plant a seed of doubt, a seed of "he might be right", and I believe that that is what we need if we wish to see change regarding psychedelics
