Psychedelic therapy Netherlands

Let me put mine in then. 🙂 

On July 4th I had a medium/high dose (or was it more an extended medium?) in the Loft in Schiedam. Was my very first time with psychedelics.

The loft is a nice location, both the interior and the environment. Although sound does echo well because it is ultimately 1 large space. But the combination of modern yet cozy interior and the accepting influence of Marcel put me at ease.

The group of “psychonauts” was also interesting, from spiritual to recreational users with very diverse interests.

Truffle tea tasted better than I expected after all the stories, a bit planty / earthy taste.

I ended up lying on a mattress with my eyes closed all afternoon while I was flying inside. Found it amazing that people could talk and walk around. Marcel and Susanne also came to take a look in the meantime to make sure everything went well. Luckily I didn't need that much help.

Afterwards we had a nice meal together, discussed how it was and Marcel abused his Spotify to try out each other's music suggestions. I ended up talking to Susanne about spiritual topics for a few more hours because we could both look at it with an academic eye. That was really cool.

Then to bed. I still wanted to get my head around a blog before I went to sleep, so I was typing 5 pages until 2 AM, pausing every time because the space bar was so loud and I didn't want to wake anyone up.

Did some yoga in the morning and enjoyed a breakfast of fresh greens together with Marcel. Then back to reality.

All in all it was a nice experience for me. Glad I could do my first time in an environment where I felt safe. I'm going to do it alone this weekend and I've been doubting for two weeks whether it's wise, but for the truffle ceremony I was so excited for two weeks that I couldn't wait for it to happen.

At the end of August I will go again, this time for a trip with all the trimmings. If I still have both feet on the earth after that, I will probably have something to say about it.

Marcel, thanks for the support, both before, during and afterwards. I don't think I would have taken the step if it weren't for TripTherapy.

PS Of course I expect that you already put an egg in the loft for me in August. 🙂
