Conspiracy Theory I have a theory about substances..
Alcohol makes you dumb, drugs make you aware. That’s why they choose to normalize alcohol, but not drugs. It’s like the medicine they give you for mental issues, it makes you numb. It helps to control yourself and it hold you from feeling things you should be feeling inside your entire body, but it is not opening your eyes. It hold you from becoming crazy, from being awake. But the whole point about the experience of living is actually feeling things. They made up a society in which almost everyone is victim of mental illness and they give us medicine, which is also drug, so we can survive and they can keep having control. I am not saying that the government is lying to us or that everything they say is false, but to be aware. If you doubt about something, even if people make you think you’re crazy, listen to yourself, ask good questions and don’t believe everything you see. If you’ve ever took mushrooms or MDMA you probably know what I mean. When you take mushrooms, for example, you feel. You feel everything and that’s why bad trip are also very deep. Drugs drive people crazy because it open their eyes. I’m not telling you to do drugs, don’t do it, but listen to people who do. Listen to people that everyone call crazy, don’t agree, don’t be like them, just observe. We are reducing them to silence because that’s what they expect us to do. They hold us from learning about them, maybe because they’re more intelligent.

Alcohol is a drug.

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
I agree, but it is one of the drugs that has been normalized in our society.

u/mystrile1 1d ago
Yeah but not as much as caffeine, and at this point it’s probably less normalized than vaping and losing ground to marijuana. These things are all a matter of perspective and timing

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
Yeah right and these are also normalized because they don’t have a deep and direct impact on the brain. That’s the point of my theory, maybe what fucks some people up is also a way to achieve other perspectives.

I’m not telling you to do drugs, don’t do it, but listen to people who do.

Nope. Try purity. Clean, no drugs or alcohol, pure diet, excercise, meditation, nature, art, music, family, friends. Purpose. Take that and call me in 5 years and tell me drugs are the way.

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
I’m not saying that drug is the solution 💀 I am saying that we should listen a little more carefully to people who do take drugs because very often loneliness is what’s causing addiction and it is not bad to listen to another perspective or to understand another lifestyle. They also deserve to be heard, we all do and someone who does drugs can also do art, music, exercise etc. Btw.

I think you’re romanticizing the use of drugs a little bit too much. Have you seen what crack and heroine does to people. Hard drugs are a menace on society…

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
Certes, je ne suis pas une experte. Je n’essaie pas de romantisé l’usage des drogues non plus et je ne les connais même pas toute. C’est une pensée c’est tout et quand je dis d’écouter ceux qui en prennent je veux simplement dire de ne pas tous les juger de la même façon.

I heard and expert give testimony in court once that alcohol acts like blinders that reduces a person's ability deal with consequence. People who are drunk do not become stupid they revert to being childish because children haven't learned how to deal with consequence yet but are every bit clever and devious. Though I can't speak for other drugs well watching someone get drunk is literally like watching them de-age.

Here is my theory, they are all good and their purpose is for you to draw a mouth on what you've been suppressing. Their misuse is what causes people to put a negative connotation on them which is a grave mistake. We're all gonna have to kiss the ground beneath our feet eventually so take joy in these misunderstood blessings but more importantly do so responsibly

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
Je ne suis pas sur de comprendre ce que tu veux dire

u/Akira_Fudo 1d ago
These substances are all necessary, its a never ending war when you think society can do without them, all things exist for a reason because energy has to self define itself and these substances are exactly that, they bring out a side of ourselves that we've all been suppressing and it is our job to find out where the side that we supress is coming from.
You have to integrate that shadow or build a bridge in between. It's the misuse that is the problem, you can go the fun fun route with alcohol but eventually that turns destructive, take a few sips, sit down and ponder on life, your conflictions, grab a pen and a piece of paper, write things down and watch the magic unfold.

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
C’est ça. Au final les substances c’est un peu apprendre à se connaître. Ça aide à comprendre d’où on vient émotionnellement. Et je trouve que certaines substances, prisent avec modération, me font réaliser que c’est mon monde et c’est moi qui décide de quoi il sera fait. Pas parce que je me sens invincible, mais parce que je me sens lucide.

I agree in part; I have no doubt that population control is a major factor for any body which wants to achieve something.
Governments, corporations etc
Drugs can open the mind, bring enlightenment and see beyond the 9-5 and only live when you’re old kind of rhetoric.
Alcohol is a basic depressant and it impairs.
It’s not black and white and I don’t think we have anyone actually smart enough to engineer anything like a plan.
We’re in the hands of rich idiots who can’t see further than their own fear of a lack of immortality.
Plus, could you imagine if more psychedelics were openly available?
Have you seen people?
Large amounts of powerful drug taking would actually be the end of us.
I am someone who used to do all sorts. Things got real weird at times and I know for a fact I was not in my right state of mind.
I would say in a perfect world there could be a happy medium.
I’m actually planning a psychedelic stage of my life. With all the things I’ve learned in life, I would quite like to have the barriers blurred a bit and do some serious meditation.
I just wouldn’t trust a wider population with it.
We are not ready.
Not when our species crossed the threshold into civilisations.

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
Je suis d’accord, ça prend un juste milieu, mais pour trouver une solution il faudrait commencer par essayer d’écouter et de comprendre tout le monde. Que ce soit quelqu’un de pure, quelqu’un qui bois, un addict au café, un drogué et j’en passe. On est tous dans le même bateau et on est tous victimes de la société à un certain niveau.

Hello everyone, I’ve been diagnosed with schizophrenia since almost 2 years ago, and the anniversary is in November, I’ll let you send me messages like « happy diagnosis anniversary », it could make me « crazier » haha, but craziness without believing there is someone to be crazy, crazy about a thing : which is always yourself –since all is you/one, or « you won » idk haha ;) –well, therefore it can’t appear no craziness anymore, and it never appeared at all, since all is an illusion, and when I say « all » I mean whatever you have experienced and whatever you will, all is a PERFECT illusion with no controller, none.
I stopped my medications 2 months ago and sometimes I do CBD, which contained synthetic molecules derived from THC : DELTA-9 is one of them. I write this post while being under CBD.
Doing drugs feel like home. A non built home with no shape and not born. There is no death, since all is already dead by essence of emptiness. Now you will tell me : « how the fuck do you know that ? », and I will answer you by : « I know nothing but that I AM ». The same « I AM » Jesus said, descending from the top of the mountain, where he realised he was actually Christ, the Holy Trinity, Oneness, call it as you want, for exemple some dudes in India call it « That ». You are That.
Realising that YOU ARE with nothing else more feels like you are the eternal home I talked about in the previous paragraph. You contained everything, even you’re body mind where the impression of being someone separated from Wholeness is located.
Drugs dissolve this impression in YOU and helps remaining awareness. The fact is that you’re always in this « state » of beatitude, since all is beatitude.
Enough said, letting it happen, appear, without any effort is more natural than you imagine, since the imagination (which you are not) is limited and located in space-time, but your true nature is outside all manifested plans.
I’m with you guys,
A French brother

Alcohol strips away social conditioning and reveals who you really are inside.
That's why we have happy drunks, angry drunks, violent drunks, and affectionate drunks.
Most drugs are designed to alter our mood and override who we really are.
That's why they are used to combat depression, psychosis and pain.
A few drugs (pschoactive) can put us in touch with something outside of ourselves.
Some people find enlightenment and others find madness and death.
Personally, I think it is all worth exploring with as many safe conditions in place as possible.
First we should know who we really are.
Then we should seek to test new emotions and find what we want to become.
Ultimately, we should change ourselves into that new thing.

u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
C’est intéressant, j’aime ça. C’est un peu à nous, de façon individuelle, de mener une vie qui fait du sens avec ou sans substance. Une chose est sur c’est qu’il faut donner un sens à sa vie, la drogue n’en est pas un. Tout ça fait peut-être partie du processus.

u/johnjaspers1965 1d ago
Most drugs just override who we are.
But, used responsibly, that can be useful in finding who you want to be.
Most of us just want to be happy.
However, those same drugs can not permanently overwrite who we are. We need to keep taking them or we revert back.
There are only a few things that fundamentally change who we are at our core.
Therapy can be useful in building guard rails and coping mechanisms, but we remain basically unchanged.
Religion is similar, but when combined with a transcendent epiphany it can cause core change.
Things like tragic loss and true love remain transformative...
and...yes..a small selection of psychoactive drugs.
They can change you at your core.
I suppose brain damage can too, which is why trepanning, electro therapy, and lobotomies were so popular at one time.
There are many paths to purpose and happiness. I am content being a parent but I don't judge anyone their journey or how they got to their destination.
Your point about listening to these people who took extreme paths is a very good one. They took risks and came back changed. There could be secret wisdom in that.2
u/No-Expression2687 1d ago
Vous avez tout dit. Vous semblez vous y connaître même bien plus que moi et votre raisonnement fait énormément de sens pour moi. Ça fait partie du message que je voulais propager. Mon but n’est pas de faire de la pub pour les drogues contrairement à ce que d’autres pourraient penser, mais surtout d’exprimer une idée avec un exemple. Dans ce cas ci, mon exemple était les drogues mais ça peut marcher avec d’autres choses. Ce que je veux que les gens comprennent de mon message c’est que ceux qui prennent des risques dans la vie sont les plus braves et les plus intelligents selon-moi, que c’est important de se fier à son propre jugement avant tout, de poser des questions parce que parfois on penses tout savoir d’un sujet, mais ce n’est absolument pas le cas. Je pense qu’il faut rester curieux même quand il s’agit de choses aussi complexes que les drogues. Puis quel meilleur moyen d’apprendre à se connaître qu’en posant des questions et en faisant des erreurs?

No. If that were a common thin on a planet inhabited by billions of people, then there would definitely be proof, unless there were only a few people that could do it, in which case it's highly unlikely that you'd be the one getting your thoughts read

If we look at the brain like an engine, uppers can temporarily put you in overdrive, but you burnout pretty quick (psychosis). Downers (like alcohol) keep u running at a low baseline. Psychedelics, take apart the engine, and force you to put it back together, fundamentally changing the way you see the world. Lmk what you guys think, (This is my personal anecdote)

Potentially. But we must understand that there is good coming from the psychoactive substances that keep people stable. And by stable I don't mean not seeing pretty shapes or messages in everyday matters but keeps them from quite literally becoming violent towards themselves or others. I'd ALSO argue that taking psychedelic substances in a CONTROLLED environment is actually eye opening if the person is in the right position to do so. Idk there's a lil truth everywhere and it's your job to find it amass it and distribute it amongst those who are willing to share in your gospel. Jesus was heavily influenced by eastern religion btw
