I really don’t know what’s going on with me. I was laid off rather suddenly and unexpectedly. I spent the next 5 months looking for a job. I spent the day searching for jobs and networking and applying, then taking weekends off. Additionally, I’m already diagnosed with anxiety and take meds. It’s semi controlled.
I’ve had a job for 3 months now. (So it’s 8 months since I was laid off.) I’m completely drained by the time I get home and NOTHING is fun. I’ve quit all my hobbies. I want tot WANT my hobbies, but I just don’t. I want to just lay down and do nothing. I think I should be back to where I was before the layoff. My previous jobs never drained me this much. This job isn’t that far off from my last job.
Can it take months to get over being laid off or could there be something else going on?
Magic mushrooms (or any psychedelic drug) taken in the wrong state of mind are dangerous! Pervasive negativity in your thoughts can easily lead to a very bad trip, which I can only imagine would increase depression, possibly even lead to worse psychological issues. Now, from what I’ve been told, mushrooms are not as dangerous as say LSD, but they induce a significantly altered state of mind nonetheless. So that’s a very tricky thing to try to study, I’m sure!
If you do not have a friend who is familiar with their effects to give you advice and otherwise help you out, I would NOT recommend any psychedelic. Even if you’re not suffering depression or other debilitating mental/emotional issues.
