mescaline

D a chapter is devoted to discussing the results of a study on the use of the psychedelic substance mescaline to enhance creative problem solving.

A little correction though, although Sartre found inspiration for his writing from his mescaline experiences (especially for Nausea) he did not write on mescaline, he rather preferred amphetamines.

So if you're concerned that LSD is just too easy to fuck up, in terms of dosage, try Mescaline instead.

I'd recommend using a milder drug like psylocibin, or maybe mescaline extracted from a farmed San Pedro cactus.

The 2C family, for example, arose because of the ban on LSD/mescaline/mushrooms, and is considered to have similar safety profile as the originals.

I've never used any psychedelic, legal or not - a quick Google makes mescaline via cactus sound fairly complicated..

Other hallucingenics are often mentioned in this regard, like LSD or mescaline.

I've never done DMT or Mescaline though they seem fairly similar in affect, but extremely different in intensity and duration.

The book also talks of later trips to Mexico where they did mescaline I believe.

In fact, things as random -- and ostensibly detrimental -- as mescaline[6] can improve certain aspects of mental functioning, albeit at the cost of others.

Unrelated, but have you ever tried mescaline via san pedro?

From the article: "We counted participants as having any lifetime psychedelic use if they reported use of LSD, psilocybin, mescaline or peyote." This is pretty typical use of the term.

My experiences with mescaline are that it has mostly wound down by 6-8 hours though I can tell that I am slightly "off" for a few hours after that.

For those curious about mescaline (mentioned in the article) and how it supposedly removes mental filters to allow you to see the world "as it is", I recommend Aldus Huxley's Doors of Perception.

Mescaline, for instance, requires around 100mg for a light dose, while for LSD it's over 1000 times smaller at about 20-70ug.

Mescaline and other psychedelics produce similar improvements in cognition, and have higher dosage requirements.
