I thought it might be, see lots of vids saying how mis-understood it is, think been too brainwashed to give it a go now. Have some 'God Molecule’ which we are going to try over Christmas, slightly terrified.

No it’s here in Ireland, they rent a bit of private land from a friend of ours only 10 minutes from our house, the guy who does the ceremony travels 4hrs he loves the location…

Oh yes…really important topic, sometimes all you need is something to get you back on track with your thoughts, which is really difficult during this, shall we say, post-human condition we’re in now.

Mental health is something that will be succumbing somewhere behind all the virtual masks we end up creating and making things even worse if we’re not careful:

try martial arts, books, good friends, or just one is enough, or better, be friends with people much older than you, distance yourself from people who make your stomach churn… choose an instrument instead, go get it somewhere far away, come back home and play it regardless record it, just do something, observe, and don’t think twice about calling someone if you feel ‘those things’… anyway, did you watch Wire - On The Box - Live at Rockpalast 1979? that’s the best antidepressant you’ll find out there.

:wink:

Eat as well as possible, exercise, listen to good music, see your mates, love your fam, no matter what has always got me through all the darkness since I realised.
