I've listened to many trip reports, books, talks on psychedelics but yet to try them out. So rare in my area.

[@katlinkate]

For me psychedelics was the best thing I've done for my mental health. But I personally think it should be done along with therapy for the best outcome possible.

Such a coincidence I was just watching a documentary series about this a few weeks ago. As interesting as it may sound, Costa Rica is a long (and expensive) way from London. However I’d definitely like to try it one day. Hopefully I’ll find something similar on this side of the pond.

Hi there! That's so cool-what a coincidence indeed! Psychedelics are such a fascinating topic. We totally understand about Costa Rica being quite a trek from London. There are definitely some interesting opportunities closer to home, though. It's great to hear you're interested in exploring this further. Thanks for sharing. Keep us posted on your journey!😍
