Single psilocybin trip delivers two years of depression relief for cancer patients

Holy moly, they actually did it, awhile back I saw a research paper about the possibility to make designer psychedelics which don't have the hallucination issues but still provide the neuroplasticity benefits, and now of what little concerns there already were for it's safety, are now less of a concern.

Here is my specific prediction. I invite people to test this prediction and confirm or disconfirm it. Please don't pontificate, only reply with your test results.

I highly recommend this game.

Does anybody else have a theory about the subjective effects of cannabinoids? The linked page is a summary of my theory. This is based on my recent cannabis journey. Curious to hear any comments or feedback. Does it match your experience or not?

PLEASE DON'T DOWNVOTE WITHOUT ENGAGING. IF YOU DISAGREE, PUT THAT IN A COMMENT.

Since I enjoy cannabinol (CBN), I'm curious to learn about the acetylated version CBN-O. I've heard that CBN-O is stronger than CBN, but can anybody suggest anything more specific? Is CBN-O 10x stronger than CBN? What about duration? Is CBN-O more than 8 hour duration?

Any drug interaction that I should be worried about?

Church of the Sacred Synthesis March 7 Press Release

The Church of the Sacred Synthesis (The Church) is pleased to announce that it has confirmed the presence of Psilomethoxin (4-HO-5-MeO-DMT) in its mushroom fruiting bodies.

These findings have been independently confirmed using triple quadrupole LC/MS instrumentation at the Chemical Purification, Analysis, and Screening Facility supervised by its director at the University of South Florida (USF) on Tuesday March 5, 2024.

The Church made the Psilomethoxin reference standard that it promised and will be able to test submitted sacramental Psilomethoxin contained in fruiting bodies provided by others who grow the sacrament on their own.

The Church has a distribution partner who will be making Psilomethoxin available over the counter (OTC) in a GMP formulation. We have a biotech partner who will be making Psilomethoxin OTC in a GMP formulation from yeast using gene editing. We have a university partner who will be conducting clinical trials on Psilomethoxin on the way towards an FDA indication.

The Church has sued Usona and others for defamation in Texas state court in Austin. The basis for our suit is that Usona is liable for their test of the anonymous unauthenticated sacrament due to the reckless disregard for the truth (actual malice) in the failure of their methodology to extract Psilomethoxin using methanol rather than water which Psilomethoxin is soluble in.

Is it normal to feel/become so much more egotistic/self-absorbed (maybe become more aware about how egotistical you already are?) on acid? Is it possible to minimise or outright prevent those tendencies, during trips (or even just in day to day life)? I love almost everything about acid experiences except those ones that make me confront how sad, lonely and terrible of a person I am lol.

I guess, in some ways, bad trips are also good in that they can be really quite sobering and prevent me from outright abusing the stuff.

Similarly, if it weren't for the fact that ayahuasca tastes so fucking terrible and causes me to puke my guts out literally every single time, I reckon I'd probably consume it on the reg as I love the way it makes me feel like I'm one with everything and makes me forget who I am as an individual (not to mention all the pretty images of course). But unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), it tastes like what I imagine Satan's bunghole probably tastes like.

I'm shocked there isn't a community dedicated to all things LSD. Whoever knows how to make a community please do.

I'm looking to try a psychedelic but most seem at best to have blunted effects while on SSRIs or at worst be dangerous to take at the same time. It looks like ketamine might be relatively safe, but I'm looking for others that might be safe too.

Those two little dudes in the last panel looking at psilocybin the same way my friends look at me when I say shrooms saved my life

Hi trippers, glad to be here. If anyone finds or starts a mushroom community please let us know. Peace ✌️
