I have never felt compelled to post something like this on Reddit, but I have truly reached this state of mind regarding the community.

I want to let everyone know that I pass no judgment on doing whatever makes you happy, and whatever path you believe to be the best for you. Always walk that path. But, maybe it’s because I am old, or maybe it’s because of different factors that I cannot account for. Regardless, I am writing this post in order to feel better in my own mind, and walk my own path.

I don’t think I can be apart of this community anymore. Again, no judgement, and I mean that, but I just do not understand the internet trip culture that has been birthed from this community. Almost every post I see is from someone tripping and having a bad time, or not knowing what to do and asking for guidance. Perhaps in emergency situations, but overall, I don’t understand it whatsoever. It seems to be the exact opposite of what I believe LSD should create in a Community.

I just can’t imagine taking copious amounts of LSD for the first time, having done little to no research, and then posting on a Subreddit, asking for advice and guidance.

There is a lot I could say, a lot of feelings and examples I could give, but I think I have expressed the bulk of my concerns through paraphrasing.

Am I alone in these feelings? I guess that is what I am most curious about when writing this post and sharing my feelings.

Much love and light to everybody. 💜

Edit: Thank you to everyone so far, for contributing to such a good and healthy discussion. Reflecting on some of the things I have read from everyone, I realize that lack of understanding is the main wrench in my train of though on this subject. Leaving the community was/is a dramatic way to express that lack of understanding, and I really appreciate the time people have taken to share their perspectives that have helped enlighten me on the subject, and reassure some of the doubts I maybe had about all of us. Go team LSD !
