I really think that *everyone* should dose at least once. All the stupid people would try to fly, thus eliminating the stupids from the gene pool. The rest of us would evolve in some way from the experience.

Of course, only people who've had far too many such experiences actually still hold out a dim little flicker of hope for such utopias...*sigh*

Honestly, though, I owe an awful lot to that fabulous chemical... even, in a strange way, my life. If you're a very good boy and you ask nicely, maybe I'll tell you the story sometime. But only after you've fed me dates & honey :)

I have never had this chemical experience. I don't think that I would be one of those would try to fly but it seems that no one who has any experience with dosing will dose me. No one wants to be my "babysitter". Owner of this journal included. *grumble*

LOL...I don't know you, but I've "babysat" a number of (when sober) seriously fucked up individuals...they came out just fine. Granted, two of them had to be force-fed NyQuil so they'd pass out because things had gone in particularly bad directions for them, but they were okay when they woke up...they even turned out to be better people, even after their bad trips ( ... )

I think that he thinks that b/c of my some of my natural mental instabilities that I will have a "bad trip". Unfortunately, the only person I "trust" to have this experience with is completely unwilling to do so.

Thank you for the suggestions. Btw, I like to color when not "fucked up" on anything. I find it extremely relaxing. But then again, I'm strange. :P
