Hey everyone! After quite a while of casually viewing forum threads from afar I've decided to take the plunge and join the community!
A little background about what led me to this: I grew up in a very religious and conservative home (rhymes with normon), then in my early twenties went through a faith crisis which ultimately resulted in me leaving religion altogether. The process of questioning my beliefs opened me up to a whole another world of experience, and not all for the good.
I graduated from college and began my professional life, and engaged in the typical heavy binge drinking that happens as a result of being young and immature and when you haven't dealt with many of your issues. I was drinking more than I wanted to and found several discussions about how psychedelic experiences have helped a lot of people with similar backgrounds to mine. By happenstance I stumbled upon some LSD and the experience changed me. I stopped binge drinking and generally my outlook on many things improved.
I very much view myself as a traveler now and feel a kinship with like-minded individuals-- and therefore finally wanted to connect and become part of such a wonderful, open, and understanding community.
If you got to the end then thank you! I enjoyed writing it! And I'm happy to be here!
