I mean having your head set on fire for a pepsi commercial might do that to a person

I've heard of people developing a dependence on it when taking it regularly. Especially kids.

I use it a couple times a year for the occasional restless night and it seems to work for me.

It's not inherently harmful afaik but it could disrupt your sleep if for any reason you have to stop taking it.

Yeah, tolerance and dosing with shrooms is kinda tricky (as in there's a trick to it, not that it's really difficult) if you're doing them with any regularity. I wouldn't be surprised if it's similar to that where you have to take quite a bit more to not only break the threshold to trip again but achieve the same level of trip, and your tolerance lessens with each day that passes.

I might be able to attest to that if I had been doing shrooms a little longer before I started strattera. Perhaps it's harder to achieve higher level trips, now that I think about it. But this is new information to me so it's something I'll have to keep an eye on. I happened to take .3g last night and got a bit more bang for my buck than expected. I also forgot to take my strattera yesterday. Coincidence? Maybe, maybe not. Low level trips are still valuable though imo.

My buddy told me about how his dad found this energy supplement next to the dick pills at a gas station, said 'what the hell, why not' and it made him feel really weird and gross, which took him by total surprise, and he had to pull over to avoid causing an accident because he was driving.

It was kratom. They sell kratom as an energy supplement at gas stations next to the dick pills. With no warning of the addiction or withdrawal symptoms associated with it being similar to that of opioids. He'd never even heard of the stuff before. (Apparently it's been dubbed 'gas station heroin', so maybe I was one of that day's lucky 1000. I only knew of it being sold at a lot of smoke shops, but at least you know what you're buying there.)

Now, I admit, I didn't see the bottle myself. Maybe my buddy's dad is a dumbass (actually, no maybe about it, he certainly is from the stories I've heard), maybe the people that buy those supplements from dick pill stand or drink strange elixirs without thinking much about it don't deserve my sympathy, but in an ideal world that kind of warning would at the very least be really hard to miss before you take it and especially before you get behind the wheel of a car...

although idk if there's just not a lot of content for it being a forum or if I'm just really bad at navigating it... the threads always seem abruptly short and I haven't found a good way to browse them but maybe I'm spoiled with modern social media.

The only time I've heard of serotonin syndrome being a real (common) risk is with MAOIs and alcohol...

Shrooms/SSRIs causing it is not something I've ever been able to find information about. Every time I try to dig something up, because I am pretty careful about mixing drugs, the vague consensus (that is, in sources that aren't making blanket statements about recreational drugs in general being bad because drugs are bad) is it's probably fine, maybe it lessens the trip altogether, maybe it lessens the negative side effects of the trip, we just need to look into it more. Serotonin syndrome is a conspicuous thing to not mention if that's a risk with any significant merit to it.

It's certainly an emerging field due to psilocybin's place on the drug schedule preventing any very extensive research. It seems to me like that claim is based mostly on conjecture that because they both can increase presence of serotonin, that has potential to become a risky situation with SSRIs. Mind you, however, that the exact mechanisms of this are not fully understood by science and so aren't very good bases to draw sweeping conclusions from without research or data.

I'm both an SNRI user (strattera) and occasional psychonaut (not more than once a month, if I had to give an average for the year). I've never had anything but positive experiences with mushrooms and haven't noticed any difference on vs off my SNRI.

Had a bad trip on acid once but that was more down to hubris than anything else. I wasn't even on the SNRI back then.

This is of course anecdotal so absolutely take in all the information and make your own decisions for your body. Just thought I'd share what I know.

The person stonewalling is a .world user?

This guy is definitely trolling

Doesn't sound like they avoided adding or widening a highway, just that what they did add is only accessible if you pay a toll.

Look up "thebootydiaries tumblr sweaty" and give the images that come up a brief scroll. I'm not very creative so I'm just gonna tell you that we can do this all day.

(edit: I've realized you probably already know about this and I'm the one missing the joke but i saw a brief opportunity to contribute and took it so I'm not taking it down.)

They didn't actually use either of those terms.
