>>13473528>>339466346>depressed as fuckI dont generally recommend psychedelics to people who are depressed, but I do understand the transformative nature they can have on people who are struggling with things. I would recommend that if you do it, go big and aim for ego loss. I would highly recommend a sitter, or at least someone keeping a distance to make sure they know what you're up to. Terrence McKenna used to talk about taking huge amounts of shrooms, laying in a dark room, and smoking weed heavily. That its best to get into ones head instead of focusing on the outer world and such.
As for what to take, idk. I would personally, if depressed, take something like ketemine, i know its not a psychedelic, but a disassociative is nice at re-centering yourself sometimes. This can be done somewhat with DXM, but not really the same IMO. For psychedelics, I prefer acid and exploring, at a festival or outside during the day is awesome. For mushrooms, I usually focus more inwards, and prefer night time isolated with myself or only a few others. I think either would work, depending on what you have access to.
If I was trying to reset some things, get out of a rut, etc I would try to get to ego loss. It's scary, and can have long lasting emotional consequences, but is really good at giving grand perspective and highlighting how trivial some shit really is.
I would again recommend a sitter, depression and trips is not good, and you should have someone in the right state of mind looking out for your best interests, hopefully without interfering. If you get too stupid on xanax, maybe a lower dose might help just take off the edge if you do start panicing a bit, its a nice safety net.
Good luck anon, I wish you luck on your journey. Remember that there doesn't always need to be some truth or pot of gold at the end of the tunnel, sometimes the journey is the prize.
