/lit/ - Literature

I know this is an issue most of us who post here suffer, but I feel the need to share it regardless. I felt like in my teens I felt the most I will ever feel. My appetite for music and literature were at it's height. Everything brought me some sort of feeling.

Now I'm older. Now I feel hardly anything. I feel like I've lost all feeling, lost everything that made me what I am. I know people change, and I'm okay with that, but I feel like what was essential to me was somehow lost in growing up. How the fuck can I feel complete again? I feel like such a child for caring about something so abstract and pointless. I don't even know what I'm so upset about, except that I'm dissatisfied with something. What the fuck is wrong with me?

I've done acid a few times. Anybody who claims to have found any "secret to the universe" or "spirit realm" is a complete moron. Psychedelics, or at the very least Acid, provides insight only in the mind. It's only worth is allowing broader insight into the ego and how you process emotions, thoughts, those sort of things.

I've had profound experiences with psychedelics. It helped me realize things about myself- nothing that would be interesting to anybody else, really. Just personal introspection.

As for the philosophical uses of the drug, I don't know. Spirituality is deeply personal, so I do think it can help you realize a part of you that was starving for some sort of faith, but if somebody says that they "found God" or "uncovered the secrets of the universe" while tripping, their head is far up their ass.
