    THE RECIPE FOR THERAPEUTIC HALLUCINOGENS

    by Ivar Diederik

    These conditions are extremely helpful:

    1) If a novice, then a therapist or experienced guide. Once experienced, benefit can be derived from having the experience(s) in complete solitude.

    2) Carefully weigh the dose, so that there can be no uncertainty or panic about “having taken too much”. It’s alright, and even useful, to take a high dose, but it must be a carefully measured high dose.

    3) The most important part is the inner experience, not any conversation you have with the therapist. So the therapist must understand that he should not speak or ask more questions than is absolutely necessary. AFTER the experience on the other hand there can be lots of talking.

    4) Thick curtains for complete darkness, or a comfortable eye cover. Headphones with instrumental music. May be any type of instrumental (classical, ragas, ambient etc.), preferably nothing too bombastic. When tripping alone, prepare the music list, because you might not be able to operate your computer or remember the names of artists while having the peak experience. The peak of a mushroom trip will last for about 4 to 6 hours. For LSD it tends to be 6 to 8 hours, but plan for 10 or 12.

    5) When the peak of the experience is over but there are still some light after-effects, walk towards a body of water, like a river or a lake, and just enjoy the sight. If that is not an option, go sit in the garden with a glass of wine, or something like that.

    TRAUMA ETC

    (open book policy is the best self defense)

    Nah. No secret. Easy: Aspiness, Alcoholic father (but Amazing mother), violent childhood with lots of fist fighting. Long history of illness, Cancer twice, some nasty biz stuff. So, I’m not special in any of those regards. Autism can be best explained by the “intense world hypothesis” which basically means we have fewer filters. So everything is LOUDER (more intense) so to speak. It took a lot of work to develop enough filters (mindfulness). Hence my understanding of the combination of the stoics on method and nietzsche and aryanism on the ‘overman’. I’m hyper competitive and I love it, and I have low agreeableness, and an off the chart sense of orderliness, so you know…. I can (and love to) fight through anything – unfortunately, that too often includes my body’s ability to sustain life (and good judgement). lol. So it’s nothing complicated. Aspieness is just an amplifier, so Aspie+Trauma is … challenging. And that is why I try to help other guys on the spectrum. Because I understand there is very little help out there for them. When I went through it we didn’t know this stuff. I’d save others the pain if I can. It’s cathartic.

    ADVOCACY OF KETAMINE THERAPY

    As a trauma survivor myself, I would not wish on anyone the work it took me to leave it behind. And I have willpower few can imagine, and fewer can muster, and I also have had friends, partners, and family to help me. So I can’t recommend this ketamine (or hallucinogen) model (when controlled) enough. If the problem is trauma (memory) it can be fixed. If it is physical (immunological, or developmental) the individual will permanently need drugs to compensate. But if it’s trauma this family of treatments is both explicable (we can say why it works), has only lovely side effects, and is absurdly effective. Depression is pain. And it’s pain, largely from exhaustion, and exhaustion from trying to avoid trauma – each ‘revisitation’ (of memory) which reinforces it. These treatments create distance (separation) that allows you to easily retrain your brain. We are not talking 10 or 20% effectiveness here. We’re talking +70% effectiveness. It works.

    (Truth in Advertising: No I have not had this treatment, and I don’t have need to, although low dosing hallucinogens is common among my peers, and I’ve considered it for reaching peak performance. The data is just very, very, impressive whether formal (ketamine therapy by doctors) or informal (hallucinogens with friends). My brand of Aspiness is a sort of OCD-in-thought that seeks order in everything, and chemical assistance helps me change context rather than work myself to death. lol Which I seem to try to do at every opportunity.

    All you do is give them validity with their fellows, and inspire them. The most negative reinforcement is to ignore people, not play into their game, and pay them attention. All SJW antagonism is a currency in their book.

  • Yes, Stupid People Create More Crime

    YES, STUPID PEOPLE CREATE MORE CRIME People commit crimes across the spectrum. State and Local IQ corresponds to crime rates. Stupid people get caught more often. Stupid people tend to pursue low risk low reward crimes. (those requiring little planning and high opportunism) When it comes to murder a surprisingly high percentage of murderers are caught. I use the term evil 80’s but the average criminal has an IQ of 93, which only serves to confirm my position that while the median of the distribution is 100, the medium of the distribution needs to be above 106, and closer to 110, leaving a full standard deviation between the median and the border of criminality 95 to preserve a high trust society. But in general the evil 80’s (probably up to 95) demographic (a) is universally outcast, (b) undesirable even to each other, (c) cannot trust information, particularly from each other, (d) personalizes it to ‘oppression’ rather than “avoidance”, (e) justifies his behavior as retaliation for that treatment (f) is still smart enough to profit from immorality if not smart enough to profit from morality. (g) this includes the ability to practice all forms of criminal behavior and develop skill at avoiding being caught. Not surprisingly (which is worth noting) criminals consistently measure with lower verbal ability. Hence my arguments that I’m not sure that the primary evolution out of africa is almost entirely verbal. —“Lower verbal ability is due to the structure of the brain. The recognition of feeling occurs in the left hemisphere while the ability to speak is governed in the right. When there is a little cross over between the hemispheres alexithymia is common. Common in the people who demonstrate alexithymia are executive function defects.”— Liam Eddy So just as you see greater verbal ability in ashkenazi, greater spatial in east asians, a balance in whites, you see deficiencies in every other group. But out of these deficiencies, (a) personality defects (b) cultural reinforcement of those defects, and (c) lower verbal IQ – exaggerate the problem. Worse, the ‘multiplier’ is aggression. Meaning that the higher the aggression in the personality the more expressed is the criminality of low IQ. Again, this is why I’m a critic of adding peoples who have not undergone the manorial transformation (filter) to the european gene pool, and social and political orders. They bring with them permanently defective genes. We forget that the primary difference between whites and ashkenazi of same ability is aggression, and that this aggression is as much or more responsible for their ability to carry intellectual workloads as well as make use of their intelligence competitively. African americans are highly pro social (extroverted), but very negatively distributed, and even in that distribution they are negatively biased in verbal ability, AND they mature much earlier, faster, and deeper.

  • Consequences of Lower Verbal Ability (Crime)

    LOWER VERBAL ABILITY AND THE CONSEQUENCES by Liam Eddy Lower verbal ability is due to the structure of the brain. The recognition of feeling occurs in the left hemisphere while the ability to speak is governed in the right. When there is a little cross over between the hemispheres alexithymia is common.

    Common in the people who demonstrate alexithymia are executive function defects. What happens when a person who cannot label their emotions, with little executive function (Impulse control etc), is in a public environment? Opportunity leads to crime. Frustration leads to aggression. —- ALEXITHYMIA: the inability to identify and describe one’s emotions. Dysfunction in emotional awareness, social attachment, and interpersonal relations.
