That’s wonderful. I wish I had waited to try psychedelics until I was a little older and more mature. When we used them as kids, it was with an irreverence and complete lack of respect for the power of the drugs. I don’t smoke pot much anymore, but when I do, I use it as a tool for more objective introspection in the way you describe. Sometimes that can be pretty painful too, but it is also, like the bad trips you describe, an opportunity for growth. But as far as psychedelics, I think I burned that bridge. Hard to say how they may have changed me, for good or ill.
