Trance like states

Cw: drug mention

Night shift journal

Entry two

Hello again.

I've been working at this factory for a while now. I've noticed that being awake all night in a warehouse with no windows is doing strange things to my perception.

My bosses praise me for being able to stay up to speed on the assembly line. Sometimes they let me switch stations so I can "avoid burnout". What a joke.

But that doesn't matter because the rhythmic nature of my job has allowed me to enter an almost trance like state. But not fully. I am no stranger to meditation, though I have my own methods.

These methods include mind altering substances. My favorite at the moment is amanita muscaria. I am able to reach a place so far into my own mind on this drug that it feels like I'm dreaming while awake.

I'm going to try something that is definitely not a good idea.

I'm going to try micro dosing shrooms before work, just enough to push me closer to that threshold. I'm not able to fully let my body go on autopilot alone, but I think with practice I can get back to that lucid state.

I have all this free time at night while working to just think. They want me to be a robot well so be it. You cant put chains on someone's mind.

If you're reading this, do you have any meditation or psychedelic experiences?

I'll update soon.
