Hey, theres a coincidence Im studying for my private pilot cert. Anyway, I will not live a life of pain if their is anything I can do about it!!! Unless GOD is going to condemn me for eating a mushroom for medicinal purposes Im not concerned adout the negative opinions of others. It would be small minded if not stupid for me to make a decision not to try a potential medication based on a certain country's policy on the drug or a stigmatization on the drug by a certain country or culture's moral majority. If this mushroom thing works the stigma attached to it is a non-issue to me.ALL PRESCRIPTION MEDS ARE ILEGAL DRUGS UNLESS U HAVE A PRESCRIPTION, a prescription is basically a note from your doc to the pharmicist saying "hey, I know this guy fix 'em up." Furthermore many of these drug laws are in effect to prevent idiots and teenagers from becoming unproductive zombies and endangering themselves and the public. I can legally drink a glass of gasoline,but I cant eat a mushroom? I believe that those of a higher I.Q. can make analytical judgements factoring risks etc for themselves. this is a no-brainer! However, if the proposed treatment were to shoot-up heroine or smoke crack every day,forget it!!! The mushroom treatment, if it works, may mean no more pain, no more daily meds and since there are companies which sell complete "grow your own psylocibin" kits with EVERYTHING you need. This may be a way for some of us, especially those of us with frequent KIP 9-10's, to get our lives back!
I BELIEVE THAT WE MAY GET NEGATIVE POSTINGS FOR OUR EXPERIMENTATION. BUT I HAVE A SUSPICIAN THAT WE ARE BEING INFILTRATED BY THE "GLAUCOMA SITE." RUMOR HAS IT THAT THEY ARE WORRIED THAT OUR MUSHROOM TREATMENT MAY GIVE THEIR MARIJUANA TREATMENT STRONG COMPETITION AMONG GEN-XERS IN THE "YEA,I WISH I HAD THAT DISEASE" CATAGORY...LOL
