Hello,  I am delighted to have found this forum and hope to gain much knowledge and wisdom through it's discovery.  I used LSD, as a teenager in the 1970's, and was changed by the experience.  Later I took psilocybin and again felt expanded by what happened - although it was taken unthinkingly while intoxicated.  These days I stick to Marijuana which I use recreationally and for meditation.  Lately, I've been exploring all sorts of things and have been led here via Graham Hancock's work around psychoactive drugs and ancient civilisations.  I am very excited about being here and fully intend to expand my consciousness with your support.  I believe that individuals are stopped from exploring other realities as then we would aware and beyond control and manipulation.  As a mature and free thinking adult I choose this path, one I believe will lead me to personal growth and God  consciousness. I'm a mother and grandmother, I have no belief system as such, I buy everything second hand or find it on the street.  I work 3 days a week in a prison which is an extremely difficult job for somebody who thinks as I do and one that I hope to leave soon. I paint, I play guitar, I think a lot.  I'm single these days but cool with that.  I have cats.  I hope to be around for a few more years yet and want to expand my mind on the way.  When younger I was terrified of losing control while under the influence, now I'm older I'm ready.  Thanks for being here and thanks for reading about me.
