Really good mushrooms can be equally cheap. They’re so much stronger than back in the day, 1g could be equal to 100mcg of LSD. Not to mention cultivating them is relatively easy as far as these sorts of things go.
I do ketamine infusion therapy as well. It’s a massive injection that is consistent and constant for about 90 minutes. It is one of the WILDEST experiences people can have, up there with DMT or DPT but instead of all of reality melting digitally disintegrating dripping all around you it’s much more like the classic description of a near death experience/OBE.
But it is very important to have a the prerequisite knowledge and the right intentions for first time psychedelic users. There’s a reason some of the greatest villains of history used these drugs to try to control human behavior and we don’t know the extent to which they were successful nor what they still do. I’m very suspicious of the predominant culture around psychedelic drugs, it’s just another example of colonial cultural appropriation and assimilation. The psychedelic experience is something that can be incredibly profound and powerful, but it can also fuck you up pretty good. These chemicals, the plants they come from, and the cultures that have been using them for hundreds to thousands of years demand a lot of respect. If you don’t respect them, you will quickly learn to.
Excuse me. Ive only done DMT once and it was a small dose. My experience with tryptamines is mostly 4-aco-DMT and DPT. But I get ketamine injections weekly.
