    I understand why people do it (logically). But altering what I hear, see, taste, etc. is something that doesn’t call to me at all, so I don’t understand why people want to do it.

    I guess it’s more of a “I can’t relate”?

      That’s totally fair! I was straightedge for my early life and also didn’t understand. Something changed for me when I was in my 20s. I decided to try cannabis and realized everything I was told about drugs was wrong. I can’t smoke cannabis anymore, it gives me crazy anxiety. But I do take MDMA every four months or so with my partner, because it’s the best feeling I’ve ever experienced!

      The coolest drug I’ve taken was 5-MeO-DiPT, or “Foxy”. It altered everything about the world. It was the only thing I’ve ever tried that changed time. My partner at the time and I were listening to music familiar to us, and both noticed notes stretching out way longer than they usually do. The body feelings were also insane. I would never do it again hahaha
