Comment on Psychedelic Truth
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 8 hours agoGotta be desperate for a high to take datura. That is a poisonous plant with unpredictable results. It grew regularly where we lived, and we had a physician family member who basically said if you’re going to get high even some of the harder drugs were a better choice than datura. He’d seen too many people who didn’t survive or came out with permanent damage. It was a poorer rural area where they worked, and combined with boredom people tried other shit to get high. Datura’s got a bad track record.

I was young and I honestly had no idea what I was doing. A friend of mine gave me the seeds and I had never even heard of the plant before that point, and 5 minutes later I was choking down the seeds. I was young and dumb, and this was a gigantic mistake I made that caused me extreme trauma for about 10 years afterward. I didn’t actually even know what a deliriant was, or that it was even possible to trip like that and have hallucinations that were absolutely terrifying, fully formed, and were much more real than reality itself.
