    that the mental health forum would fit more appropriately into Mind Trips rather than Alternative Life Styles?

    I think that Alternative Life Styles implies a conscious choice by the person (ie., I chose to be naked or I love camping)



    Also, mental disorders are definitely "mind trips" as anyone who suffers from them will tell you.

    i kind of think as mind trips as more just fun and somewhat enjoyable and interesting. and i obviously cant speak for EVERY person who has posted on mental health, but i tihnk of that as more falling victum to your mentality, many times in a negative manner. also, mind trips seem to be more of a spontaneous thing, while mental health is never ending and constant; effecting how you view everything around you.

    but maybe thats just the point your trying to make... i duno..

    but i, personally, dont tinhk mind trips and mental health are the same thing.

    Yeah thats true. Mental disorders are the worst kinds of illnesses. You could have your leg cut off but if you have a good mind then you can get over it but a mental illness lingers with you forever.

    Yeah. Because enough willpower will stop schizophrenia.

    mind trips dnt just happen like that... they come when there is the need for it. when the need to escape from the serious life to a calmer pace-this is a trip for me, even if it is in my mind

    I would say that mental health is a lifestyle, not a mind trip. Otherwise, I'm living one huge mind fuck... Maybe that's not far from the truth?!?

    peace and love
