    Many people cannot handle many medicines or drugs. Many people cannot handle alcohol. To say, "it doesn't work for me so it shouldn't be available to anyone" is selfish and narrow-minded.

    Also, "you need to be in a stable state of mind", is a false claim, unless you're claiming people suffering from PTSD or alcoholism are in a "stable state of mind".

    Big pharma would go out of business if people looked to nature for medicine. Sage and rosemary grow wild in my backyard so I don't go to the grocery store when I cook turkey or lamb. You may have started a thread on nature yet you're afraid of it.

    I'm glad it worked out for him because not every trip is a good one and the bad ones can be really bad.
    Don't be afraid to see what you see

    You sound like you're an expert on this matter, probably because of your experience.

    The mandatory covid jabs should've been enough to prove to everyone that our entire healthcare system is a scam. Covid messed me up but I made it through by taking vitamin D and drinking orange juice.

    Drinking a glass of wine and getting sick is not the same as taking an hallucinogenic that makes you think you are Superman and jump off a building

    Funny. I've never jumped off a building. I guess I must be special.

    Well crap why not let Walgreens just stock heroin and meth on their shelves then?

    Is that really going to be your argument?

    Reminds me of anti-drug movies they showed us in junior high.
    Some kid stands in traffic and says, "Stop, I am God!" My reaction was, cool, have to get that stuff.
