I used shrooms to cure myself of life long depression.

I`m unable to post a link, but there are guides online in pdf format. Literally just look up 'psychedelic therapy guide/questions' and you should find lots of useful information.

Ketamine is an older drug. Veterinarians have used it to anesthetize large animals for over 50 years. Recently it's become popular as a last-ditch treatment for recalcitrant depression. Google depression and ketamine and you'll find a lot of info about it.

These are known to help quite a bit. The problem is access to supplies without hassle from the 1984-style powers. Would think it of greatly valuable knowing about resources to tell folks about in that regard. Got any clues/tips? Not enough reason to move to New Mexico where it is entirely legal. But legitimate sources/sellers would prove of great value.

You know, there is much intelligent discussion that could and should flow from this introduction on the mushroom angle of things. Hope people will take it up.

Because some mushrooms are poisonous, it would take a leap of faith to try it. As a kid I worked in the Louisiana oilfields. Next to our rig was a horse farm. At night some of oilfield workers would sneak into the pasture looking for mushrooms growing out of manure piles. They'd boil the mushrooms to get VERY high.

Well most of the mushrooms we are talking about are in the "ergotamine" or "ergot" family...in fact pretty much all of them.

Yes, you have to trust who cultivated or found and processed them to know what they are doing...On the other hand, isn't that true about everything nowadays?

Every spring I see dogs that have eaten mushrooms growing on the lawn. They're vomiting but get better with charcoal.
