not to put too fine a point on it,but there are addictions,and then
addictions.i have been addicted to drugs b4, but never to psychedelics.
that is not to say that i haven't used them extensively.
my only addictions now,are caffiene,and nicotine.not to say that should
be taken lightly,thye are two very bad substances.
strange thing:
i quit enjoying grateful dead shows,about the same time i quit dosing.
i dosed at one hw show,and that recently.it was incredible.at least till
the lights came on at the end.then it was just something to deal with.
i dont think i will do it again.
my wallet can afford it,but my brain-cells are very much against it.
