Psychedelic Analog Reduces Stress

Its an exciting finding that could lead to more fundamental comprehension of psychedelic drugs and hallucinations. The brain works similar to a phase transition, like a pot of boiling water, walking a fine line between order and chaos, in order to crunch the numbers more efficiently. Our brains even leverage the noise in all our sensory data, to crunch the numbers more efficiently. Stress can be thought of as noise, introduced into the system as a default way for our neurons to make more sense out of the big picture, and psychedelics may do something similar, but could also tap into more quantum mechanics in the brain, which can be 125% efficient.

 

Honestly,


someone who is legitimately struggling does not need to add mind altering, illicit substances into the mix - it's the wrong cocktail, IMO.




I'd recommend a hot tub to destress - it lets your psyche know that you're not kidding.

 

Frank Zappa has always sworn he never did drugs, and many are convinced he made the right choice.

 

That settles it... Hot Tub Time Machine!

 

I think I may sort of understand the noise that you are speaking of wooleeheron. Is this noise at the point where stress has passed being picked up by the sensory organs where it could be described as an active singularity. Rather than noise... Energy is too energetic of a word. Force is too forceful of a word. Is the noise like a psychological affect?

 

Think of it as background noise outside, that can either help you concentrate on what someone is saying to you, or drown out their voice. One man's noise is another's music, and the two can easily switch identities, while a perfectly quiet environment is impossible.

 

Two key words to help give context and perspective to this discussion are Frequency and Vibration. Each can have a relationship with existing forces and energies but are distinctly different in nature and impact on environmental dynamics.

When speaking of drugs and/or psychedelics my suggestion is to be more precise in describing a particular drug or psychedelic as it relates to impact on humans. When drugs are researched and applied a concerted effort is made to understand benefits and side effects. A part of this process is to understand the dose volume and frequency to achieve the desired outcome.

Psychedelics should be approached in a similar way and with an open mind, especially for plants and herbs from our precious earth. Small doses that do not overpower, but rather enhance and benefit is how humans prior to modern medicine helped each other.

There are many types of psychedelics, meaning things that impact human cognitive functions and each should be assessed on its own benefits and potential harmful side effects with dosage and frequency research to seek greater understanding.

My personal experience is very limited but I have an open mind to all things that are healthy and can benefit. Those with difficulties in substance abuse should especially take care and have guidance in their seeking of things to help.

Fortunately researchers are now conducting larger scale studies and social acceptance (or at least being open minded about health benefits) of natural medicines is continuing to grow.
