RE: Psychology Addict # 47 | Putting Ourselves in Other’s Shoes

She excitedly asked him in front of everyone “Oh Lucas, do you want to be my boyfriend?”, just to hear “No, you are too ugly

You didn't tell us if she really is..


But, what about for those of us whose childhood years are long gone? Is there hope?

Dunno where I stand in the empathy scale. But after my first experience with psilocybin mushrooms I have certainly become a more empathic (is that even a word?) person, after the "heavy", mushroom induced reflection that followed a couple hours later. If you ask me, something changed permanently on my brain that day.

Interestingly, there is also some research on that but I am too tired and not really interested to check it out XD

But maybe you do:

I don't want to talk about this. 😌

Oh! Have you used psylocibin? 😃 I have read quite a few studies on psylocibin. It appears to be incredibly promising for actually curing affective disorders. Have you considered writing a post about your experience? As far as I understand you need to be under strict supervision to use it. Although, I have spoken to someone who self-administers it. He has PTSD, he said that nothing worked for him in the past (therapies or medication). But after using the mushroom his mental healthy has improved considerably. It rewires neural networks faster, it has been suggested.

Thanks for sharing this study here. Most of the material I have come across was in relation do major depression and trauma! :D

Yeah, tried them a few times at around the age of 28. If by strict supervision you mean my friend next door who was diagnosed with schizo, yeah, I was under that XD

Overall, it was an amazing experience that any man should give a try in their life. All my experiences with the mushroom were amazing and mind-opening, but I would describe them as really heavy to absorb... I can't really put it in words. But it's definitely something I won't try for many years to come. It feels like the mushroom has already given what there is to give :)

The way music sounded, the pictures my brain created, the self reflection... It's a totally different experience compared to for example weed, which just makes you dumb and laugh ... Ok, deal, I will make a post about it one of these days :D

Excellent!! :D
