i'm high on life

“All of a sudden, everything familiar started evaporating,” he recalled. “Imagine you fall off a boat out in the open ocean, and you turn around, and the boat is gone. And then the water’s gone. And then you’re gone.”

written by a clinical  psychologist after taking shrooms (or, to make those MDs out there feel a little bit better, a purified controlled version of psilocybin, the psychoactive drug found in mushrooms).  A 6 hour hallucinogen experience was the turning point in this man's struggle with depression.  ready about it here .


interestingly, although i have never experienced shrooms myself, I have learned that my experiences in meditation are extremely similar to this hallucinogenic drug.  no drugs needed...


let's get high on life :-)
