    isn’t that like the nightmare drug, that you can rather easily die from?

      Yeh, I just want to make a weak tea and slowly try it out. The seed pods sound horrible, but I’m probably going to make tea from the flowers.

        I’ve eaten the seeds, they’re nasty unless dried out. Read the dangers beforehand. It’ll mess with your vision the next day, supposedly there is a chance of going blind. The hallucinations I experienced were pretty convincing, you might want to have a friend keep an eye on you. My buddy overdid things and got picked up by the cops, they put him in the psych ward

          Nah, that’s what I expect. I have the chillest sober sitter in the world. I’m already going blind, so vision stuff doesn’t freak me out. (I have recurring uveitis) I hope that doesn’t happen, though.

            Wouldn’t it makes more sense to take it then once you’re already blind? Then there’s less risk of blindness technically

              Eh, when your vision rapidly declines you don’t really care about the long term. I was born with the ability to see, which makes it a little worse. I also make visual art, so that’s not fun.
