DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Re: Eat your Mushrooms

Fellow seers, I have come here to say my farewells, I will be going on a journey of self discovery, leaving my children behind. I may die and never return.
Do not lose yourselves, bright lights in the darkness. Seek me out.

The reason is I never quoted because I'm not speaking singularly. Sure can be confusing.
I've never changed my name. I made this account with this name

Ah the grand sage has come before us, respect his presence, a welcome addition to our party!
Clearly a sage would understand the uses of our myceilal fibers.

To answer your questions of my origin you must understand your own.

Rolling hills, dwarven fills rush out to greet you, showing wares a strange set of flares made from the skin of bears, three of the hundreds greet you in grumbles to gruff for you to hear.
The fell wind still blows right up your nose it seems to fill you with fear, push through this place with courage and care for one of you may never reach there.

Years of study of sciences that stem from times of alchemy and magik filtering through industrial revolution and need for compliant workforce, demonised the centuries perhaps millennia of hallucinogenic use?
Where does the time that spans multiple lives and generations lie? Is that to be forgotten and shunned because of the cultural deconstruction it fosters? Nothing wrong with calling bullshit on the rhetoric of society? Of course it is shunned because we fear the unknown. Lack of control. How can we be in control in the first place though. We are not and any thought that we are in control is a joke. In knowing this then what is so wrong with surrendering to your lack of control and going with the flow?

Imagine if raw electricity had the thought of trying to control itself?

I would rather not mention my age and living situation alas my age is not that of a teenager or child as multiple people have assumed.
Continue your assumptions with more assumptions, because it says plenty about who we are.

Who ever said the doctor knows best, oftentimes they give things out until something 'works' while having no clue to why it works. Is that good practice? Of course it is practice, not something they know will work, I would much prefer to find something myself and understand my processes instead of allowing a person to play with my mind and then wait for an outcome that is beneficial or just masks my problems. Problems developed as a child and teenager due to these mindsets of societies.
Sure accuse me of suggesting a natural approach to self care. Don't accuse these doctors though. They know what they are doing right?
It goes deeper beyond this mindset though.

I've obviously offended some of you in this discussion yet I never intended it and I would rather not offend anyone anymore. So I will step aside and leave it.
Thanks for the excitement

Yes poach that egg.
Vinegar the water so it coagulates the egg quicker. Not sure if its vinegar or just has to be more acidic. Probably the latter.
I want to see the egg!

While I do agree with you that it has its place, I disagree with the ones who suggest such things for minds which they do not reside.
Just like you suggest I used some metaphysical paint brush of negative energy, it was you who painted with negative energy like it's a bad thing. This is incorrect, positive and negative do not equal good and bad or darkness or light.

I understand these are the tools and failings of our language and cultures but it might help to get your point across without using 'negative' with the meaning of bad/evil.

People attack and become ignorant to what they do not or choose not to understand. It is a fear of the unknown and a fear of what has been pushed upon us to fear.
The truth is that these things they fear have a place within and without, no need to attack what you fear if it doesn't attack you right?
Hmmm speaks volumes of what our collective childhoods are repressed with.
Much love to all going through strife, I assure you this pain blossoms if you allowed it instead of repressing it. We've done enough as children, now is the time to look within not without.

Actually I was going to suggest to get off the ssri.
Then prescribe exercise and avoiding drugs all together.
If giving advice in a thread of sadness is to be attacked by a few reductionist claims due to my choice of poetry, profile picture and mycoremediation hobby (that is without doubt a good thing for our environment) then Of course I will lead you ashtray.
Cool keep funding Monsanto Bayer with your medication choices.
Mother knows best and its best you listen to her.
Like i said, you are riding your idealisms faster and faster away from forming your own opinion.
Of course its hard to get over the childhood brainwash.

Assuming conclusions due to post history.
This horse you rode in on seems to be the one im talking to, not the actual rider.
Neigh enough of that. I was simply here to offer help to someone who is hurting.
The fears and idealisms you hold onto will shape you in an image not of your choice. Tread the path of reductionist assumptions carefully. I care for you

I never once suggested 'psychoactive' compounds.
Are you projecting Arx?

I do not have a PhD though I am a Wizard.

It has culminating effects, but seeing as an intelligent individual as yourself missed my point. I was referring to alcohol specifically, yet all drugs have effects that go beyond what we know, as a whole we deny the chances to truly delve these depths.
As you would know this is out of fear, but what is to be feared if not fear itself. The mind? Bah never look into the reflections and fear that light, it is the truest sense we have and to deny this is to deny the one staring back. If it wasn't dancing around us all would be black

Alcohol is good for sterilisation.

I recently had to stop my caffeine, had not reached the depths of addiction but I noticed a dependency, fought a few nights of restlessness and constant waking up never finding comfort. Then my dreams returned with every night and I'm able to wake up easier now.
As much as my advice will most probably go unheeded it will help with your problems.
The hardest part is the first few weeks of dropping any habit.
It might help to tell yourself that the change is not a lifetime change and becoming a 'clean' person forever etc. The exercise is to assess ones mindstates without the oppression these chemicals oppose onto our consciousness.
It may be seen as a better state to reside.
I can guarantee these fatigues you fleetingly described are symptoms of your substance abuse

Stopping alcohol and caffeine consumption will help you with half of that, perhaps meditate on the thought of wrong. What is wrong? What is failure?
Don't let others tell you what is successful and righteous. Discover yourself.
