Welcome!
I couldn't agree more with Loveall. I have found that psychedelics can definitely impart personal transformations, and strip away the social conditioning, until there isn't much left of you that's human. I have had the most trouble with letting go of my ego and I'm a pretty humble person. I wouldn't say that the western mind is at all prepared for that experience. This is when you go deep with the medicines, but I find myself journeying with the low doses more now.
I know there is another member here who was sober for a decade before he started taking psychedelics again so you are not alone. I'm new to this as well.
It's really scary sometimes how most people just go about their lives complacent, miserable, skeptical, and they don't quite realize how this world is the farce, the western fantasy. You take it on faith. We just don't see culture, laws, religion, education, and such for what it is because we were born into this world, and indoctrinated into it's game by the often deluded adults who raised us, and there are many others. Few challenge the status quo. I don't have life all together yet though, not even close yet.
I always believed in the supernatural, even prior to taking any substances. But I can tell you that it's all true. Magic is real and we witness this miracle of life every day. I don't find that organized religions parallel my own beliefs anymore either. Really find them pretty self limiting actually. It's hard to stay positive though sometimes.
