Is there any ways to boost the hormones that makes you happy without drugs?

[Silent_cries]

I just read an article on a psychedelic that apparantly helps with depression but sadly I'm not currently able to get any rn so I was wondering if it's possible to do the same without drugs somehow? I've been struggling badly with depression lately and could really need something that could make me feel better. Thanks in advance.

There really ain't such a thing that compares. I would highly recommend just sticking to a weed most of the time, cause I think psychedelics & drugs are a bit unpredictable.

I believe so, but I can't guarantee that others have the same experience.

In my experience the long lasting anti-depressive effect of psychedelics isn't all that different from other intense experiences. Vacations have had a similar effect for me.

Psychadelics are a good reminder that it's possible to feel and see things differently. It relativizes thoughts and emotions, in a way which is hard to explain.
Compared to a vacation or other environmental changes, psychedelics doesn't require much of the user. They're also cheap and time efficient. A four hour trip can do as much for the mind as a full week vacation.
They are however unpredictable, illegal, and sometimes dangerous. When things go wrong you can experience a week of pure hell in just a few hours.

If you're able to, try a vacation to an unfamiliar place. To me that's the essence of what a psychedelic trip is.
