Ask Lemmy

At my age, ibuprofen.

As said on that one Dr. Dre song, smoke weed every day. Well, vape because my lungs aren't great, but same difference.

Mushrooms a few times a year are great. LSD is also beautiful but you really need to plan a full weekend for the experience (start early on Saturday and recover Sunday) to get the most out of it.

Alcohol. It’s easy to get and I know how I behave and what my limits are. Usually comes in a tasty package too

I did LSD for a few months when I lived with a few friends, I loved that stuff.

LSA is pretty cool too and you can make it yourself without any risk of poisoning. Not sure about the rules so I won't explain how unless someone says it's cool lol

Weed.

I have this spot on a low mountain that overlooks the valley I live in. A big boulder sits wedged into the mountainside with a lone scraggly pine giving it some shade. I just like to sit there sometimes, smoke and think. Relaxes me from all the stress I feel.

Don't want me to say "caffeine", huh?

Well then, sugar. I'm medically addicted to the stuff, and kicking the habit before my prediabetes turns to diabetes is showing itself to be a struggle.

Gen X here...MDMA late 80s, early 90s when the quality was good, and the party's still underground.

Caffeine.

Edit: damn, I didn’t read the body before submitting. You got me OP, but I’m actually straight edge!

Mushrooms of magic.

Nontoxic, non-addictive, mind-broadening, easy to safely dose and for me and my fellow psilocybinauts, a very comforting, mother-earthy, wavy high.

I take them very rarely, as in less than once every couple of years, but they are my favorite altered experience by far.

Cannabis for sure. I mostly do edibles, but every now and then, I light up, breathe deep, and relax.

In my 40s. I partake in alcohol here and there.

A CBD/THC gummy is not only good for relaxation, but I’ve found that it helps with runny nose issues when I’m sick and stops the mucus drainage because it dries me up.

In general though, weed is great in an edible form. I don’t smoke it.

Weed for regular use. But mushrooms changed my life. Can't trip regularly though or I'm pretty sure I'd understand so much I couldn't even semi-function in the world anymore.

Alcohol is the obly "proper" recreational drug I've tried so tjat has to be it. I'd like to try some others but them veing illegal makes it hsrdr. Me being very drunk while typing this might have something to do with somethkng

Definitely mushrooms.

The first time my friends and I tried them we took a LOT, and went walking through the woods by my house. It was a wild trip, and I'll never forget it.

I've only gotten my hands on them a few times since then, and never took as many, but even only taking 1-2g, everything just makes you feel happy and giggly like a kid who stayed up too late.

Cuno likes that brain boost shit

I like the old classic eight ball of coke with a pair of hookers to share it with.

Definitely LSD, but I haven’t gotten in a really long time

If I could choose only one? Alcohol, it's great for relaxing and having fun, it comes in delicious flavours and is easy and convinent.

Fondest memories? Ecstasy - dancing to great music with in a crowd can be amazing, but for me sober, or even just with booze, it's hard to bother with. But with some mdma I've had some truly amazing peak experiences. Although, I've found the aowish dose of psychocybin has a pretty similar effect without all the comedown nonsense.

But tbh, they're all pretty fun in the right time and place.

2C-B and 2C-I are great psychedelics. I’ve always had the time of my life.

Good ol mushrooms are all i really do anymore though

Sugar.

Can't live with, can't live without. Should be regulated.

Creatine

Helps me do more reps.

Weed, usually at least some at the end of every day to unwind, don't do it while working or for social situations (anymore) get too anxious lol

A good Scotch single malt, preferably from the Islay region.
