A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

This isn’t meant to be a negative post. I wanted to tweak how I handle some things and have gotten better but I it made me think.

Could you turn someone 360 completely? Like from a freak to a mighty, a chad to a chud, a person to a stealers fan?

Really? I thought it was just a EDM party drug

If you wish to know more about the benefits through therapeutic approaches, I highly recommend Prof. James Fadiman's book titled 'The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide'. It is a rather large resource based on Fadiman's involvement in LSD trials before research was halted abruptly and without warning, and is as close to a scientific approach to developing better pathways to preferred thought processes (through the use of psychedelics mainly LSD) that I am aware of.

Other resources include a therapeutic handbook, provided to health professionals such as psychiatrists prior to the illegalisation of LSD. This can be found on Erowid, alongside other documents that have survived.

Weed helped me do a complete 180 on my lifestyle. I went from an unemployed overweight alcoholic retard to a barely employed mildly overweight idiot.

LSD as an EDM party drug is excellent in the same way Batman would make an excellent shade structure.
