Magic Mushrooms and Mental Health?

Asa Soho: What is it with you? what are you seeking? You sound like a person daring him self to go into the dark room but wanting a guarantee from strangers that there are no Bogey men in there and the strangers have never been in your circumstances themselves. How can they advise you? What you need is a highly qualified psychiatrist specialising in people suffering from but seeking to overcome P.T.S.S.

Emilie Santmyer: I dunno.You could end up going completely insane knowing your history.People take lsd and never returned again

Elden Bardach: I'm usually ok with people dropping LSD and mushrooms. But I never will. I have a fairly severe case of bipolar type 1 with paranoia and hallucinations as it is. So in some respects, my brain already is on shrooms. But that's not the whole story, there are two reasons why I won't do anything that make me hallucinate. First is that is has a very high likelihood of messing me up further. So even though I'm stable now, I do! n't want to risk making it worse and losing the possibility of remaining stable. Second, there is no knowledge base at all about how these drugs will interact with your current medications.The reason why I hold the first view is not because of my own suppositions, but my psychiatrist's. I was discouraged from ever doing heroin or cocaine (which I've done in the past). But it was more of those "it's generally better to just stay away from things that can alter your mood". LSD, shrooms, and pot (which surprised me), were complete no-go drugs. Just flat out, these are drugs you do not take when you have a severe mental disorder. You could be fine, but it could very easily mess you up big time. Your brain is not normal, so treat it carefully. You probably do it already with meds that they put you on for your bipolar disorder, and those are controlled. Don't go putting uncontrolled substances that will significantly mess with your neurochemical balance.The second one is just str! aight up drug interactions. I'm guessing that you don't put an! ything in your body without checking for interactions with your pharmacist or doctor. Why would you toss that idea away now? You're on a lot of meds and who knows what the shrooms will interact with. No matter what anyone tells you about how they got a good trip, your brain chemistry is radically different and far more fragile.Seriously, just stay away from psychoactive drugs. Those of us with mental illness have to be highly protective of our mental health. You're stable now and you want to risk throwing that away for a single trip? What planet are you from? Those drugs you take control you in a normative environment, not against powerful hallucinogens. You don't want to exacerbate your condition more and develop psychosis (like I have). It's a whole new world of hurt and more brain fog and more powerful medications.Stick with other drugs if it pleases you, leave the psychoactive ones alone....Show more

Ronnie Sardi: Perfect I had lived in Vancouver for several years! and we ate them dry or raw, you on the other hand are requesting a death sentence. In vancouver so many people were hospitalized due to overdose and given you condition DO NOT ATTEMPT

Particia Thorton: It isn't God's will for you to continue doing this. God doesn't want us to cloud or confuse our minds in any way, whether with drugs, alcohol or anything else. When we do things like this, we endanger ourselves morally, spiritually and even physicallyâ€"and that is never God's will. We also compromise our witness with others (including some who may be struggling with addiction, or may be tempted to begin using drugs or alcohol in their search for inner peace). God gave our bodies to us, and He wants us to treat them wisely and use them for His glory. The Bible says, "I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to Godâ€"this is your spiritual act of worship" (Romans 12:1) God also gave us our minds, and the! y too are to be used for God's glory. Jesus commanded us to "Love the L! ord your God ... with all your mind" (Mark 12:30). One reason God gave us His Word, the Bible, was "to stimulate you to wholesome thinking" (2 Peter 3:1). I pray for you and encourage you to grow spiritually. I Pray not only that you will turn your back on this habit, but that you will put Christ first in your life. God's willâ€"for you and for everyone reading thisâ€"is that we would be "transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory" (2 Corinthians 3:18). http://peacewithgod.jesus.net/...Show more
