I actually think everyone should have to do two things before they hit their mid-20s in order to fix most of the problems of the world:

The first is to take a hallucinogen. Get out of your own head for a minute and see the world from a different perspective. Too many of us can't do this.

The second is to work as a server in a restaurant. Nuff said.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 1 points 14 hours ago

No thanks, I'm capable of having empathy without experiencing the hell of working customer service first-hand

[–] glibg@lemmy.ca 2 points 22 hours ago

Agreed, but sometime between 22-25 would be best. Hallucinogens at too young an age can be detrimental, as this meme alludes to.

[–] REDACTED@infosec.pub 2 points 1 day ago

I did alot and now I have reading comprehension problems, so it's good that you didn't

[–] RickyRigatoni@piefed.social 58 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I never did acid and I'm still a worthless sack of shit so maybe the acid has nothing to do with anything.

[–] Vupware@lemmy.zip 20 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Doing acid could change your perception of yourself for the better, if you go in with the right intentions and expectations.

That being said, I’ve never done acid or shrooms, although I very much want to.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago

You could do me if you really want to

Acid certainly changed my life for the better. I used to stress out about everything. I still stress out about things now, but I have the heads-up knowledge that all of reality is a fragile thread of consciousness where my brain is tricking itself into viewing and interpreting the world around me as a stable, solid thing, when the truth is that reality is as subjective as you want it to be.

There are no rules. You can make up and do whatever you want.

Then I stop worrying about why I got a $5 fee for some bullshit from my bank I'll have to call them about tomorrow.

[–] lemmy_outta_here@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Jesus, man, how much did you do? Mine wears off in, like, 8h

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

The trip doesn't fully end until you go to sleep.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I've never done any, but I used to work with someone who said he used to work with someone who had been a heavy acid user back in the day, but stopped.

The intermediary said that the original user would occasionally stretch, popping his vertebrae, then have to take a brief timeout as he'd released essentially a microdose.

I don't know enough about drugs to know if that's plausible (and haven't thought about this anecdote in years) but the idea of having an unexpected trip at any moment always sounded very worrying.

[–] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

That's been studied before, and IIRC, is not plausible, but is "acid lore".

Edit: Ah, here we go. Yeah, it's all bullshit, like I thought. It's just people making up stories unfortunately.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

TIL - thank you for the insight.

[–] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Eh, I sometimes think that had I not ridden the magic carpet back in the day, I'd probably would not have progressed nearly as much in life.

[–] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

that me,

i was a closed minded little fuckin prick till i saw i was a little piece of Zeus, little piece of paper letting me see im actually a big piece of Zeus

[–] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 days ago

Damn, that must've been some good acid.

[–] ghost_rider69@thelemmy.club 4 points 1 day ago (3 children)

guys what does doing acid means? I don't understand (I'm fr I don't understand)

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Lysergic acid diethylamide, aka LSD.

[–] ghost_rider69@thelemmy.club 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 21 hours ago

Yeah, I am confused about the acronym too. They use the L and S from lysergic instead of calling it LAD 🤷‍♂️

[–] markovs_gun@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why does every comment section on Lemmy seem to have at least one person who seems to have never gone outside

[–] ghost_rider69@thelemmy.club 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I do go outside and I do know what acid is but this post makes "doing acid" sound like doing drugs or something but even if that's how they are "get addicted to acid" then that would be really harmful to them that's how I understand this post and I know most likely this is wrong explanation so that's why I'm seeking answer

[–] GreenDust@lemmings.world 6 points 1 day ago

I don't think this post is implying "addiction" at all. I think it is more referring to the fact that taking any hallucinogen at such a young age is a bad idea because your brain is still developing. The drug is likely affecting brain development in some way or another.

LSD and shrooms are not addictive, and they actually have some really good outcomes for certain mental illnesses, such as depression and PTSD. I know several people who were suicidal and depressed teenagers whose entire outlook on life changed after one trip at a somewhat young age.

Yeah it was a useless response really and I misread your question a bit. Doing acid just means taking LSD.

[–] rmuk@feddit.uk -3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

LSD is fucking boring. There, I said it. People say 'on acid' to mean crazy, unhinged and over-the-top but it just makes you notice things like shapes more and you have to specifically remember to swing your arms when you walk.

[–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Boring compared to what, PCP? Every trip I've had has been enjoyable. Yeah I didn't see talking dragons or whatever but I had a shitload of fun spending the day in the woods with my friends watching the trees branch off and wondering about the nature of reality. I also got really fucking good at Rocket League for like 2 hours.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

If you really wanna see talking dragons, you have to go to a furry convention. You don't even have to be high!

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 7 points 2 days ago

You know all those pink and yellow suburban hells in Tim Burton movies?

I'm just asking, it's not relevant to the meme.

[–] burgermeister@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Bout the same.
