What the hell is it with everybody here robotripping? seriously you guys, it's more stupid than you think. I suggest you give this a read.

I've taken the highlights of this article:

- Onley's Lesions (tiny holes all over the brain)

Damage To: (copied and pasted directly from the link)

Memory, especially language-related (e.g., finding words)
Understanding metaphors
Evaluating, and possibly controlling, your own behaviour
Multi-sensory thinking
Learning in new situations
Certain aspects of visual perception


With increasing doses, damage spreads beyond the posterior cingulate and retrosplenial cortex into other areas of the brain including the hippocampus and olfactory areas. Damage to the olfactory tubercule would, obviously, impair one's sense of smell. Damage to the limbic system itself could have wide-ranging consequences including:

Autobiographical memory
Declarative memory (as opposed to remembering skills)
Place-memory (learning and remembering your way around)
Coupling of emotions to experience

-Those with epilepsy can have seizures triggered.

- Bad trips for people with underlying mental conditions can lead to psychosis (not common though)


So for fuck sake, quit giving pharmacudical industries money to destroy your brain (and liver and pancreas), and support the black market of things like weed and shrooms.
