- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I’ve long been interested in this and dph for the large number of “don’t do it” stories. Same with h, but that one tends to be “don’t do it because it’s so good”.
Don’t think I ever will, but stories like yours always give me a tingle.
Clearly for some folks it's great. I dunno maybe I just wasn't in the right frame of mind. It hits you all at once, there is no buildup, and that may have contributed to me freaking out.
Don't get me wrong, I intended my comment as a warning, but with a trusted sitter in a safe space maybe someone else will have a better first time.
My understanding is it's not a particularly high risk drug, despite how intensely it kicks you (or at least me) in the face. (but again, don't take my word for it)
I haven’t heard that it’s high risk either, merely that it’s usually miserable. Part of me wants to know what that feels like though.
Honestly, hats off to those who enjoy it
It’s a very weird drug. I only know one person who actually likes the experience.
I went to a white and grey world where I became a bookshelf and the corner brick of a building for a bit.
I tried it a couple of times and have no desire to try it again. It’s more of a drug for people who want to explore and experiment.
My tips: sit down when doing it. Have a sober person present. People sometimes start moving around and injure themselves.
