5-MEO-MiPT

Lest anyone doubt the psychedelic potency of this substance, an encounter with it has reminded me that tripping is not all sunflowers and daisies. Sometimes a trip, instead of bringing out the cosmic wonder, ends up dredging up the psychic pain. I suppose it happens in a much more insightful, productive way than in the everyday reactive mind (as L. Ron would put it), but it's not what I would call A+++ would buy again.

For two substances, in the space of barely a week, to have given me such contrasting views of my state of nature is pretty remarkable to me. I guess there are two lessons: lay off the drugs for a bit, and there's only so much into-the-fire to be had. One chooses to spend more time with the upside.
