    I started drinking years ago as a teenage, got addicted to alcohol. Spent my whole life fighting alcohol addiction. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

    Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? I'm really interested in treating my mental health without Rxs. I live in Australia don't know much about these. I'm so glad they helped you. I can't wait to get them too. Really need a reliable source 🙏

    Congrats! I'm really happy for you that your wife decided to help you. I always admire those who beat their addiction. Knowing it's possible to fix your life knowing there's people out there that have done what I thought was impossible gives me hope I will make it through as well. Those who share their experiences don't know how much it helps when you're about to give up, it gives you the strength knowing somone who actully know what it's like to go through this tell you it's possible, it's not the same somone telling you you can do it when they have no idea what it's like, but hearing somone who knows what it's like that helps a lot since you understand it firsthand and made it out gives so much hope. so thanks for sharing.

    I’m a recovering piss head mate. What I will say is, it took me 18 months to beat the cravings. Now I wouldn’t drink the poison ☠️ if it were free mate. It seems a long time (18 months) bud, but if I can do it you can. Get a hobby. Try and break the structure around the times you drink mate. I’m here if you need me. It can be done, I’m proof. I’m 14 years clean now bud.

    I will be straightforward and hope you don't mind me being that. I am not judging you. God knows I've had problems, and I am only trying to be helpful. You are very likable, so I genuinely hope things will work out for you. That's why I want to share some of my thoughts. I don't know you; I've only watched a few of your videos today, but I do know I'm good at picking up energy. And you have an exhausting energy around you. Have you ever been tested for ADHD or ADD? Because many people who suffer from these conditions self-medicate with alcohol or drugs. Another thing I noticed is that you don't seem to have any help-no help with fighting your alcohol issues, moving house, or your financial situation. Also, you don't seem to share any of your goals and try to reach them together with your wife, family or friends. That seems exhausting and lonely to me. Alcohol clearly serves a purpose in your life. So, it's helpful to find out what the function of alcohol is. Then, you can make an informed choice about whether to use it whenever you need to or not. Or you can look for substitutes, like medicine or coaching. I hope you will succeed in overcoming your problems. I have a lot of faith in you, and I am sure you will eventually. Take care, my friend.

    I had a serious steelwork accident 4 years ago. Got into oral morphine and codeine. Used to smoke weed daily. Most days of my life I've drank took drugs and the rest of my time spent self loathing. The only time I had a release was when I moved in with an old friend who was in the British army. And he told me I was worth something. The best time of my life. I was sober. Had a good Job, and he kept me in check. But you can't rely on other people to sort out your mechanism. I'm seriously damaged and I know that.

    I remember having some minor surgery years ago and at that point I had never done any kind of drug at all. I didn't even drink small amounts of coffee or alcohol. They hit me with an intravenous dose of Demerol and I felt worst so after my mushroom hit I found a better part of myself.

    For anyone who is struggling with addiction, please look into IFS therapy. If you feel like a part of you wants to drink and another part of you doesn't, and these two are in battle - you understand the basics of this therapy. IFS works to have your parts integrate into your system in a very loving, caring and non judgmental way. I find it the most intuitive way to help me overcome my issues. It goes to the core, the root of my problems. I wish you all the best! ❤

    Booze has a tight grip. It’s legal, not hard to get, and puts you in a different state of mind. I battle all the time.. work 50 plus hours a week, married, two boys. Everyday I question how good I am for them… I’m here, we go and fish, swim, build.. but I wonder how they view me…? I know I’m sick, but I just say how worse others are…… Wasn’t a big user of anything, but it’s hard to get off of booze. Good luck brother, we all deserve to be on a better path

    I feel like im where you were. I've been smoking 12 to 13 years, and I'm pretty much blazed through my 20s. Just turned 30 this year. It has been a difficult task for me as i am prone to saying I'll quit, but I've been saying it for years. I'm hoping i figure it out soon. I look forward to the dreams being a lucid dreamer. i feel like weed and my old self unified, creating a powerful final boss i must face in order to start achieving my dream. I truly believe the key to that is within my dream world. Conquer that, and the rest of the bad tendencies will fall as well. Well, in theory. I've gotten to the point where there's only one thing to do and that's find out if im right or not.
