[@iamV10010]

Always. Especially if it's a top post and well upvoted. These things are engineered. I didn't see it for the longest time but after so many years, they are EVERYWHERE. If you're looking for something that's most likely true it's gonna be found in posts that have little to no attention.

[@MegaOverclocked]

This should always be the very first thought, I know sometimes a person may feel like an asshole doubting without reason but it's the internet and even worse is Reddit, where people do shit just for the brownie points. Everything about this post felt so bullshit and artificial I'm glad Nexpo brought in the hint of doubt instead of lapping it up like any other content creator.

When in doubt, it usually always is false. Everything on that site should be taken with a huge grain of salt.

In my country Nepal, Datura is offered to lord Shiva on the day of shivratri (Hindu festival). Mind you lord Shiva is know as the lord of destruction. Datura is said to have grown from the chest of lord Shiva after he had consumed poison in an event in the religious texts (puran) so it already has a pretty hardcore reputation in my culture. Worshippers offer datura to lord Shiva on that day. My mom, dad and grandparents have told me stories of people who consumed it and have either died or have never regained sanity after consumption. Don't try it, it's definitely not worth it.

[@fieryspysixty9711]

@@skinsubtlety No problem man, my pleasure. Also some extra info for people who want to know more; hippies love lord Shiva since he is usually associated with consuming stuff like cannabis. Nepal used to be the hippie centre of the world back in the 60s/70s before consumption of such stuff was banned. The word datura is also originated from Sanskrit. There is a temple called Pashupatinath which is considered the most important temple for hindus which here in Kathmandu, Nepal. Pashupatinath is temple of lord Shiva. Temples usually distribute bhang (edible cannabis) boiled with milk or mixed in sweets during shivratri to pilgrims and worshippers. It's completely legal to consume marijuana/ cannabis on shivratri in pashupatinath for everyone. All the sages that come from all over the world are high as a kite that day and will even offer you some to smoke. If you're into spirituality and smoking marijuana you should come visit Nepal some day on shivratri, Nepal's also the birthplace of Buddha so if you're into Buddhism too it's a place you won't want to miss.

In my dumb youth I tried datura. The dry mouth is very real and the first thing you notice. This is manageable at first because you have your wits about you and can drink copious amounts of water. The next thing that goes is your vision. Your eyes turn into one big pupil. This means reading your phone is impossible and the ability to call for help a matter of luck. This is when you begin your lucid hallucinations which can be fun but are a 30 or so minutes of of a 12 hour experience. Your body temperature increases rapidly and you can’t sweat so your skin is beet red at this point you begin having your out of bodily experience. You literally feel like you are watching your self from above like GTA and I remember having thoughts like “weird, I guess I’m pat today” it wasn’t spiritual it was terrifying having the lack of self. Then you have your black in black out period where you only remember some of the night but the idea of where, who, what you are let alone that you are on drugs is gone. When your trip is over the events you do remember don’t go away. You believe them as a full blown memory. I was convinced I cheated on my current girlfriend with my ex and my friend confronted his math teacher because he was convinced “he solved the problems they learned in his 1:1 tutoring” that never occurred. As we both came to I could hear him yelling in the living room in my parents basement that he needed water. I some how found the door knob and crawled toward the kictchen. My parents had an open layout for the living room and kitchen with the only distinction being about 1 foot of wall extending out of the 8 foot entrance . When I grabbed us water and tried to bring some to my friend I couldn’t find the end of that one foot extension and or lights or anything of use. I started punching the wall to break through and luckily he found me before I did more damage or hit a wire. About 4 hours later 16 hrs in. We found the light switch. We both had heavy fevers and chalk white mouths from severe dehydration. My vision took over a week to come back to 100% and like I said our visions were 100% true to us for a long time. This is not something anyone should try. You are walking a tight rope of life and death this isn’t a psychedelic and shouldn’t be treated as one it’s a deliriant and even if you don’t of there are so many ways it can kill you. Stay away. All out of love I promise

Some years ago in the late summer, we noticed that one of our geese was acting very peculiar. He seemed completely out of it and was stumbling around like a drunk and bumping into stuff. Fearing some horrible neurological condition, my husband took him to the emergency vet while I checked out the geese's enclosure to see if I could find any clues as to the origin of his condition. And I did. During the monsoon season, datura grows all over our property. We keep the geese's enclosure free of it, but hadn't noticed one plant just outside the fence in a far corner. A couple of its leaves were sticking through the fence, and they had beak marks all over them. Dude was high as a kite. It was about four days before he was normal enough to eat and function on his own again. Since then, we inspect the fence a lot more carefully, as we would rather not have to tube-feed a hallucinating goose ever again.

It was so intense I had to quickly put myself in "safemode", favorite blanket most comfy pillow and hurrying to put on The Office (my comfort show", and tried to be as comfortable and calm as possible. I even wrote myself a note saying "you took datura of your own will, everything will be okay". I took 20 seeds ground up in water sat overnight and then sieved out. I had the same euphoric and dysphoric experience at first which then turned into complete dysphoria. It took me about 2 minutes standing in front of the toilet trying to urinate and my skin puffed up really red and puffy throughout the experience. The headspace was NOT psychedelic, very confusing, and not something I'd recommend even for experienced Psychonauts. Especially if you've never been in a situation where you are tripping very hard but your brain can't remember that you even took a substance so you start to separate from your identity (AKA: delirium) leading to potentially really really bad choices you don't even know you're making. STAY AWAY from Datura no matter what you've tried, how potent, or how often you've tripped its not going to feel like any tryptamine, phenethylamine, or any other deliriant like Ketamine for that matter. It's a different beast. Even with proper harm reduction practices just stay away. Please.

[@K.Marie119]

Even if this person wasn't serious about taking it, there are still plenty that do. I'll never understand why people insist on messing with Datura. It's nothing like classic psychedelics. It's a deliriant. Unlike the classic recreational psychedelics, you won't be able to tell where reality ends and the hallucinations begin. Not to mention the alkaloids all but guarantees the experience will be dysphoric as hell. Atropine, scopolamine, and hyocine are also anticholinergics. And like it said, the dose for a trip is also enough to put someone into anticholinergic syndrome. The window of safety is incredibly narrow and anticholinergic syndrome is no joke. It's pretty scary to witness. And, as someone who is Rx'd levsin for IBS symptoms, even therapeutic doses give me enough of an idea to know how nasty they can be.

[@wulfherecyning1282]

(See second paragraph for context) I'll never understand why people insist on taking drugs, whether it is heroin, psychedelics, weed, or plain old alcohol. Unlike doing a rewarding fun safe activity which naturally causes you to release endorphins, drugs put you in a state where you cannot take account of your surroundings, which is incredibly unsafe unless you make other people take care of you. ^ This isn't actually my opinion. I'm just pointing out that, the same reasons that you will have to argue why the above is irrelevant, also applies to people who take Datura. In short, for them it doesn't matter that the window of safety is narrower, in the same way that you don't mind being intoxicated despite knowing that there are big metal boxes outside that can decimate you if you don't pay attention when you cross the road. People take risks regardless of the safety. This also applies to sky divers, basejumpers, wingsuiters, prop-plane pilots, skateboarders, etc. They *could* get equal enjoyment from, like, ping pong or a marathon, so why take the risk when the window of safety is considerably narrower? The answer, as always with humans, is "why not?".

After doing a bunch of research on mushrooms I realized they're actually pretty safe and seemed really interesting. 2 years later I tried them and it was great. Really ironic stuff, had no interest in doing any drugs before that.

[@Elegant_Sausage]

@@McFwoupson The D.A.R.E. program helped get me into drugs. They preach that Marijuana is the worst of all of them, so when I finally did try it and it was really harmless it made me wonder what else they were lying about. Then began the dip into everything. I regret some of it, and I think those programs entice people who otherwise wouldnt know about the drug.

First time I found out about this stuff, I had a neighbour over and mid conversation he noticed a tree in my garden, the one with the pink trumpets and was like "you need to get rid of that tree". He told me about this time he visited Cape Town (we're from South Africa btw) and was given this tea made from the leaves of the same type tree in my garden. I cant remember if he was tricked into it or if the effects of it were misrepresented but he said he'd have never taken it had he known what a fcked up time he was in for. He said he was talking to people that werent there, smoking cigarettes that werent there among other hallucinations and apparently went on to experience this delerium for 6 months. He said that the experience gave him PTSD and changed him for life. I did think he was maybe lying. I mean 6 months?? I'd never heard of anything so powerful thats allowed to just grow in peoples yards. But then about a year later I came across this very thread through another thread on Reddit and reading others experiences, I realised he was not bullshitting. And now I've decided to watch this video. Interesting side note, I noticed specifically lighting and smoking a cigarette thats not there and even feeling the feel of a cigarette as if it were real is actually a very common thing people seem to experience.

HI! I made the mistake of ingesting datura as a teenager, and though it was only one time (don't really know anyone who has ever intentionally taken datura more than once), I can tell you right now: this post is fake. One of the immediate side effects of datura is your pupils dilating to the brink. Legit, no color whatsoever is left in your eye. This makes viewing any sort of backlit device like a computer screen, phone screen, television screen, even digital clock almost impossible. The fact this guy got on reddit to type two separate posts is absolutely unbelievable. The google post, and the "big dog" comment are absolutely contrived. On top of massive pupil dilation, you also get an effect known as "eye jitters" which happens when you t5ry to focus your eye on any one thing in particular. The second you look at any texts, images etc, your eyes will begin to almost vibrate back and forth. Posting is, for lack of a better word, impossible. This story is interesting, but definitely a work of fiction.

A friend of mine from a couple years ago (6/7 years) was a heavy user that would usually answer the question "What drugs do you most commonly take?" with "Yes.". Now he'd done some sketchy shit before, including experimenting with his own cuts of god knows what (i don't know that much about drugs so i hope that makes sense). This story stands out to me because he changed after taking (smoking, drinking, idk) Datura based stuff. I'd forgotten the name of it until now. He went off to home excited because he was going to try some 'real experimental shit', "Datura" he called it, which of course meant fuck all to me at the time. Hours later i met another friend of his and we got to talking, and of course i'm thinking i'll tell him about our mutual friend and what he's up to... I kid you not that dude froze straight in his tracks: "Jesus christ, if it doesn't kill him he'll wish it did.". Neither of us knew where he lived exactly, and we couldn't contact him for a solid 2 days. That was 6 years ago. He's a twitchy mess, locked himself up for weeks on end, terrified of just about everything. I swear to god it's like he went on a bad trip and never came down. ... Hell, at least it's gotten better the last couple years. Let me tell you one thing, having known someone like that, i'm never touching drugs other than caffeine. I don't think i'd be lying if i said he died because of it. His body's still there, but whatever's left inside of him isn't him.

I kinda view it as the same reason anyone takes drugs that are very clearly dangerous. Not like weed and them, but more like heroin or crack. You don't need to be a smart person to realize these kinds of drugs are dangerous, but a person who is determined to get to feel high will throw any and all caution to the wind. It doesn't matter how many people tell you how horrid it is, you'll do it because you want to get high and the people telling you off are just like everyone else in your family telling you not to. Of course, after the first time, addiction can be a major cause of people refusing to listen to reason, but beyond measures of common sense and minimal levels of willpower, peer pressure and such are the only reasons beyond sheer idiocy that people do the hardcore shit (Aside from any medical based reasonings that you basically went over with a doctor of course). People want escapes from reality and will go to absurd lengths to get it. It's what makes it even sadder when someone does something like this and it makes them feel worse or straight up kills them.

One of my friends in high school, her brother (claimed anyway) to have found Detura plants in the woods behind their house. He made tea out of them like Flippinflop in this video. He done it in the morning when the house was clear. My friend got gone late in the afternoon and she found her brother naked in the front yard staring up at the son, digging up all the grass within arms length. Judging by the fact he’d basically created a “snow angel” equivalent of pulled grass around him; he’d been there quite some time. He was institutionalized until he came down and I think it took a week or so. What I remember most is my friend didn’t know the name of the plant, only that her brother called it “devils weed” and she had no clue why anyone would take a plant with such an ominous name. He’s doing ok now. No permanent damage as far as I know but it took weeks for him to recover.

I’d recommend not Don’t an drugs, since they’re all not good, but definitely don’t try Datura Innoxia and don’t ever do Heroin. They’re both bad, but one will kill you over the course of several months/years and the other will possibly kill you in several hours.

[@snowzZzZz]

@@zaynes5094 I agree, but just for the sake of debate... not all drugs are physically harmful and even the ones that are harmful, when used responsibly, can have beneficial effects (for some). Marijuana while not perfect, is an effective pain killer for a lot of people and it can help with a lot of other things as well, it's also far less dangerous than opioids. Lung health is an issue though so alternative methods of consumption is recommended, maybe not edibles since dosage is unpredictable and potency can be indescribably scary and/or on the verge of physically dangerous. De-realization and increased anxiety after usage (when you are sober) also occurs in some. Traditional Psychedelics, again when used responsibly, can help people isolate and identify problems within themselves. Just don't take absurd amounts, or at least be aware of what could happen, what to expect, and be in a comfortable environment when taking them. Physically they are non-harmful aside from 5-meo-dmt, but the experiences can be so overwhelming that they can cause long term PTSD. Real life experiences can cause PTSD too though so it's not really the drug destroying your brain, it's your reaction to the experience delivered by the drug. Dosage is the main variable. No one takes Tylenol in large quantities thinking that it's good for them and that they will be fine, they would consider themselves poisoned and it would be labelled as their fault, not the drug. Under the same breath, if someone takes an absurd amount of Mushrooms or LSD and they walk away a different person, it's not the drug that forced them to take such a large amount. As for alcohol, it has no medical benefits aside from killing bacteria on the surface of your body. It's has only ever been used recreationally and therefore there is no real benefit aside from lowered inhibitions in social environments, if you want to call that a good thing. If you need a drug to talk to the people that you're surrounded by, maybe that says something about the environment (just my opinion). Also, lowered inhibitions pushes your inner dialogue of things that you would never say in person, to the outside, causing you to say or do things that you would normally never do. This is great if a person is in a good mood, but if someone is in a bad mood, or if the person is mentally deranged, good luck... I actually consider alcohol one of the most harmful substances in society when you consider the number of relationships it's destroyed, the amount of car crashes it's contributed to, and the amount of deaths it's caused from over consumption or severe withdraw (severe alcoholics have died from quitting too abruptly). It's still not alcohols fault, we choose to consume it, but I believe it's over-glorified and it gets a free pass just like smoking due to how culturally en-grained it is. I'm not anti-alcohol, some people enjoy themselves on it and they use it fairly responsibly, I just don't think it's dangers are communicated nearly enough. Even in normal amounts life long usage is hard on the body. As with anything, the risk is heightened in larger amounts. People have died from water overdoses as well. For the most part though, avoiding all of it if possible is the best way to not get hurt. Abstinence is bliss.

BlackSn0wz the edible thing needs to be talked about more man i was 14 and 90 pounds when i took large unknown dose at school(bad idea right) i felt like i had some of the effects for two months (weird tingling double hands thing idk it was weird) it left me in a weird mental state that id only ever really been in once before when i got older smoking it didn’t leave those effects but it still reminds me of them so i don’t do it much at all

[@hihunter7]

Psychedelics are no joke. I last did acid over a year ago and the bad trips I'd occasionally have really fucked up my mental health. Even with medication, I've turned to hard drugs to cope and my mental health as been pretty frail and fucked up even worse than it was before. I definitely appreciate my new perspective of the world, but I wouldn't wish the mental and emotion consequences on my worst enemy

You've honestly never heard of erowid?

[@josephmatthews7698]

Erowids amazing. It has saved countless lives. When I was a kid it was the only place to get honest information on drugs. If you went anywhere else they all just said, "IF YOU SMOKE EVEN ONE WEED YOU WILL GET SCHIZOPHRENIA OR DIE." I was a psychonaut for years and every trip enriched my life and gave me new viewpoints to experience thanks to them. Before you ask I haven't touched an illegal drug in ten years now though I do occasionally miss experiencing a mellow shroom trip to re balance my perspective.

[@SynchronisationFailed]

It looks like that, but Erowid actually really did help me with my art assignments when I was in high school (I used a lot of it for reference photos!). It's a fantastic site that, while the graphics are outdated and goofy, provides a lot of information that, frankly, you COULD NOT get most places, including what the actual chemical makeup of the drug is, and what it even LOOKS like chemically. It never encourages use, but has detailed info about what COULD happen should you take a drug, and that's a lifesaver in so, so many circumstances.

[@annasaringer3729]

@@SynchronisationFailed that's so cool! I didn't know the page, and I didn't mean to insult it or its creators, its layout just seemed kinda funny to me😂

[@alexbennett6023]

I'm going to come straight out with this: Who ever this is/was seems like they're probably a teenager. My estimation comes from two fronts: 1. They said they have the house to themselves for the weekend. Sure, this could imply a number of living situations, but it reads like a parent's weekend away on vacation to me. 2. Datura can pretty readily be bought online (as this video states, DON'T), so why would he have trouble getting his hands on it? Because he has to hide it from his parents. 3. This is just such a "dumb-ass kid" thing to do. Don't get me wrong, I've BEEN that dumb-ass kid; in saying that, when you're young and you want to get thwacked out on something, you might not have connections to the "good" stuff. Teenagers look for alternatives (Morning Glory, smoking cooking spices, etc.) that give similar effects. Obviously, it's not hard evidence, but there's just something about it that sticks out to me.

[@2wenty7even95]

damn didnt think of it that way

[@jamier65551]

I had the exact same idea. It just seems to similar to a naive teen's behavior.

[@yorak13]

if he was a teen and if his parents came back home, it definitely could be that he wasn’t able to get back online because of his parents

[@RenegadeRi]

And an explanation for no update could be that their parents found out somehow and took away all electronics:

I was thinking the same exact thing. funny you even mention morning glory because when I was in highschool I did the stupid morning glory seed tea just to try that trip. just seems like another kid experimenting with drugs

Exactly. No offense to Nexpo, but he's above doing one of these "Reddit Mystery" videos. It's just a lazy thing to make a video on.

[@oscarwang7227]

@@YouOnlyIiveTwice Reddit mysteries can be interesting to listen to though. Reddit definitely isn’t the best for mystery content as most people automatically assume it’s false. Fallacies in the story and all. But most importantly as long as Nexpo enjoys the content he’s making then I think it’s fine.

Look up on google his message at 6.33 in the video. A yahoo at the same year asked the same thing. Also talked about stomach pains. Feeling like he was getting stabbed in the stomach with a blade. Could be over thinking but it gives another name. Only reason I say look into it. Is they type word for word this same question. They went by the name lazar.

shouldnt have done it yourself lmao

[@FreeKnilly]

@@jackiechen3820 well now its story time. so i was 16 or 17 when i did it. i took it at a friends house who lived about 20 minutes away from my house via bike, and a bike is how i got there. we broke up several of the pods and split the seeds into three piles. i took one pile, and the other two people i was with took theirs. after i ate the seeds my friend turns to me and say "i cant believe you wanted to do this with us, this shit is kind of hardcore" this was a surprise to me, becuase the other friend we were with told me it was "like acid" which i had already done and thus didnt think it was a big deal. this shit was not like acid. i was lied to. after about 30 minutes i noticed myself getting confused over stupid things, troubles speaking, and just generally feeling like i did something wrong, that deep gut feeling. so i decided it was time to go home, i got on my bike and started to peddal and then immediately blacked out. now from here on this story will be told through the bits i could remember, but mostly what i was told the next day by my family. it took me probably 6ish hours to get home and i dont remember any of it. i was wearing one shoe on one foot and a torn up sock covered in blood on the other foot, i didnt have a shirt on and i had a flat tire on my bike (which after hearing how fucked up i was the next day, i was surprised i got it home). i didnt make any sense to anyone who could hear me. my dad said i just gave up on trying to talk a couple minutes after i got home. anything i tried to say would just come out as word vomit to everyone else but to me it was fine. since i couldnt talk, that meant i couldnt tell me family where i was or who with, so my dad went on a fucking rampage to all my friends houses and my girlfriends house at the time trying to find out where i went and what i was on. my brother figured out that i had taken datura by talking to me like a baby and asking very simple questions, i remember the look of horror on his face when he told me that months prior one of his friends had taken it and flatlined 7 times after taking a does way smaller than what i took. i went to the bathroom and put my head under water from the faucet and just puked my fucking guts out, and when i looked up into the mirror, i didnt seemyself, i saw a pile of glass in the shape of me cracking and falling apart while reassembling itself. my brother said i froze for a long time just starring in the mirror. i remember feeling tired but my family shaking me awake any time i tried to knock out. the didnt want me to die in my sleep and let it go unnoticed. i could go on but honestly i think i got the point across. stick to weed, you dont need anything else.
