Hello Ben, and hello to all the community! I've joined this as a psychonaut, and please let me say that, in the welcome poll, I feel that the option "for neurosciences" is missing, so I did not vote. I'm also a philosopher and I'm about to publish a philosophical project named "philosophy of nothingless" on my web, it will be mainly based in existencialism, where the counciousness will be the protagonist and consequently, so are the neurosciences. I've created some hypotesis and tesis about the counciousness, including altered states of counciousness, so including drug-induced altered states of counciousness and how it affects the perception of the reality. Also I write about the war on drugs that has already ended after the vietnam war but how some governments, and social stigmas, still fighting against drugs, instead of fighting against their consequences and agains narcotraffic, I write about liberty, and a lot more things. I've still not published it, because I'm finishing the main ideas and will keep spreading in my web, through a digital environment, instead of writting a book. After that introduction, although I'm busy with my project and also involved into politics and geopolitics, I hope to be useful on this community with my experience on almost every known substancess, like LSD, MDMA, 2-CB (not tussi), ketamine, heroin (never injected, and yeah, I feel it's not what I expected, was just "meh..."), cocaine, meth, mushrooms, mescaline, DMT,... and also some RC, tryptamines, lysergamides, fenetylamines,... like 5-MeO-MiPT (Moxy), also Foxy, allylescaline, 4-HO-MET, 2-FMA, some cathinones, some RC opioids too like isotonitazepyne, metonitazepyne, cychlorphyne, IC-26, U-44770... I know how this drugs work on the brain synapsis, I know about neuroplasticity induced by psychedelic drugs (and ketamine or other dissos)... I have to say sorry in advance, because English is my third language. I was born in Catalonia, Spain; I'm 26 years old, and to express myself on my phylosophy project, I've written it in Spanish. My posts here will be not really very much, but share my opinions and my experiences written in english without using any translator. Hope to be learning english in the process by thinking directly in english, and please, feel free to correct me on any grammar error you find in my posts ;)
