  • Most people I know ended up on the max dose, first few weeks of each adjustment you’ll get a boost but eventually it becomes background noise. The background noise part of it is even more helpful over time but it won’t solve all problems and the early boost should be used to learn about your condition and build coping mechanisms systems and mitigation strategies to reduce your reliance on the medication.

  • OSX already does this so many will be. I don’t use it when I’m texting something but it helps me follow group chats id usually ignore or if my wife has texted me a bunch of stuff I’ll see a quick summary including ‘make sure to do x’

  • Salvia if you’re brave. World might fold in on you briefly and it’s legal because nobody has fun on it lol. But it is strong as shit and will certain fuck up your perception for a few minutes.

    Most of the other legal things are pretty naff and will probably just make you feel a bit sick and fuzzy around the edges (morning glory seeds).

    Depending on how strict the laws are in your area there might be some loopholes for exotic psychs but probably not the best entry. Probably best just going looking for some mushrooms, they won’t show on a standard panel.

  • Using it like that sounds more American.

    Uk loves to binge. Take a couple dozen pills each over a long weekend and people will start talking absolute nonsense. Lots of weed and coke mixed in too but seemed to be mostly the mdma and sleep deprivation that triggered it.

    Small stuff like them continuing a conversation with you that you weren’t having, and then acting like a dementia patient when you correct them. To walking in on someone having a full blown conversation with a laundry detergent bottle.

    No set name for the usual level of hallucinations that weren’t delirium. Usually just say something like out my tits/box, full of it, completely fucking spangled, etc.

  • We seem to use spatial reasoning to compensate for episodic memory.

    If I try and remember something, it’s usually my position in the room I remember first. And instead of remembering a picture of an elephant we store the dimensions.

    And the reading is because you don’t have to say it aloud in your head, most people only read as fast as they can talk.

  • I’ve taken every exotic research chemical and psychedelic you can think of. I can confirm hallucinations work the same with aphantasia.

    Although I didn’t ‘trip’, which is the delusional state people get into when they take pills/mdma and stay up for a few days. Start talking to plastic bags, on the phone with their hand, etc. might just be me though.

  • Welcome to the club. In that case you might have SDAM too (hope not!)

    On the plus side we get a boost to abstract thinking, spatial reasoning and speed reading (if you also don’t have an involuntary monologue when reading).

  • I don’t really dream much but my watch says my REM is fine.

    Cutting out weed after a stint gives me more dreams than usual, but then cuts back to my baseline once in a blue moon after a while.

    Take lots of magnesium, have always been like this. Also have aphantasia though so not much to my dreams to remember.

  • I have aphantasia so don’t really have full fledged scenic dreams with a narrative like some people have.

    It’s more like I see my daughter crawling and falling into the plug socket so I need to go in after her, and then I’m suddenly in a field full of wasps.

    I don’t ‘see’ much, it’s more like flashes of images and emotions; and I’ll often open my eyes and talk or shout but still be asleep mentally.

  • Because it means there will be a larger burden on (smaller) younger generations to look after the aging ones.

    Instead of 6 kids and 30 grandkids, you maybe have 2 kids and 1 grandkid, if you're lucky.
