Psychedelics are nice. I personally take LSD anywhere from once every couple weeks to once every few days. One of the reasons I use it is actually for productivity, it works very well for treating my ADHD for some reason. I would never recommend it to anybody for that purpose, but it seems to work that way for me. I wonder why?

Once in a blue moon is fine but at that frequency? Sounds like you’re just short circuiting your brain and enjoying the sprays while they last.

Actually, the first time I used LSD that was partly the goal; I was trying to find some way to break my brain or otherwise manufacture some brand of insanity. For me though, it turned out not to be particularly capable of that on its own, or at least it doesn't seem to trigger that to happen. It did do something else that I ended up still liking, and that something else is what I use it for nowadays.
