Have some childhood issues too and a hit of acid changed me for about fifteen years. Hadn't done it before or since. It was like my brain was suddenly rewired to see good in the world and desire to be a part of it. Literally I sprung out of my support job and launched a superstar career, changed the world a little through good honest work.
I'd done some 'e' before that but the positive effects lasted more on the order of several weeks, while I have some fond memories of feeling loved for the first time and meeting people and being social, I'm not sure if or how it contributed to my good years.
So apparently it is common for childhood issues to resurface during middle age. Common as in the therapists retort "Well what else do you expect?" I hope this doesn't happen to you... I am too old and responsible to be taking risks with street drugs. Mainstream pharma seems to affect patients very differently, and I have heard regrets about doing mdma and bad trip stories about LSD.
Thanks for relating your experience, it is very interesting to me because we have some similar background and got such great assistance from taboo chems. I have related the results of my acid trip to various kinds of people across the social spectrum, from beatniks to white shirt C levels and a USN Admiral, and not many people get it.
"No evidence of abuse" Ha. So, some people just turn out this way, for no reason?
I think I know what "no evidence of abuse" means, having lived through it. It means everyone believes you deserve it, or that it doesn't harm you, or that the people who are supposed to report and investigate abuse are at least not doing their jobs or are predators themselves. The kid shows up at school with a burnt hand, or bloodied and bruised. The kid describes watching pornography, being given drugs, and physical and sexual abuse in front of the teacher at age ten. The kid's parents admit, in direct language, to social workers and law enforcement that they commit abuse. A teacher visits the house and witnesses drunken dad beating up on the kid. The kid turns in a writing assignment which is a recollection of sexual abuse. Police officers eyewitness the kid being assaulted, take reports of abuse from the kid after the fact, and the dispatchers document requests for assistance. These are just some of the things that can add up to "no evidence of abuse."
I believe that it is no miracle that when I no longer experienced physical, sexual and drug abuse and psychological torture, that after some time I began to not hate, want to kill or harm, and be devoid of respect for anything, everything, and everyone. However, these experiences left me crippled because I was prevented from developing into a normal human being. Somehow, I managed to not physically harm or destroy anything more, and only caused emotional pain inadvertently (something that I feel shame and regret for - nB I did not experience these feelings at all during the first twenty years of my life.)
It was many years, only after I healed enough to begin processing my experiences and realized that these things should not have happened to me, and that many people should have acted differently, before I wanted to harm anything again. Nowadays, instead of anything and everything, I would like to cause harm, pain and suffering to some of the principals and accessories of the abuse I experienced. I have developed, despite tardily, a sense of morals that prevents me from committing crimes and doing evil, and a sense of justice that leaves me unable to forget that these people are still alive, not punished, and will die without paying for their crimes. The juvenile probation officer whose fat thighs flash before my eyes every time I try to be intimate with my wife, because her jowly privates were the first I'd smelled, decades ago. The principal who accused me of a petty theft from a class I never went to, who grabbed me and spread me open when I didn't understand what he meant by 'grab your buttocks.' The psychotherapist who listed and billed for me as a patient, despite primarily teaching my family members how to continue their abuse and remain undetected while manipulating me with shame to not speak of it. The Chesapeake Police officers who threw my reports away, and the Virginia State Police agents who threatened me with arrest should I not stop complaining about abuse. I want them to live long, and suffer in pain every day, and terrible as this is, to watch their innocent grandchildren be abused and know the ability to determine the terms of their first sexual experience was taken from them. I simply cannot stop fantasizing about harm coming to these people.
I want to stop thinking these things, and instead take care of my self and family. Instead of calling me a schizo or a psychopath, they now say I have PTSD and reassuredly tell me that I'm a victim and my thoughts are rational.
Well this is nice to read. I have PTSD, and attempted suicide three weeks ago. I was having a big problem last night and almost rang the same number. I'm glad that I didn't. So next time I'll probably just get into a bag, or jump from a higher place than last time.
Twitter shadowbanned me for posting details of child abuse I experienced that left me disabled. These details included the names of people involved and summaries of acts committed against me. Some of the principals in these acts and all of the accessories to them are employees of a school board, police department, city government, and political boards. I posted links to articles from local media showing that there's a culture of child abuse in the city and that it still pervades more than 25 years after I was abused. I identified a certain juvenile detention facility and explained how it was designed to be and operated as a wholesale child abuse factory. I posted a report from the Department of Justice calling out the state on the ways that it abuses children.
Twitter apparently thinks that trying to effect positive change, to-wit, ending the wide scale child abuse and holding the abusers accountable to law, is a bad thing.
I'd done some 'e' before that but the positive effects lasted more on the order of several weeks, while I have some fond memories of feeling loved for the first time and meeting people and being social, I'm not sure if or how it contributed to my good years.
