Everywhere you look, psychedelics are making a hell of a comeback. People everywhere are eyeing these substances like candy in a world gone sour, and suddenly everyone's itching to see what's on the other side of consciousness. But here's the rub: you can't just plunge into this wild frontier with a shrug and a prayer. You need a map, a compass, maybe even a warning or two scrawled in the margins.Enter How to Do Drugs Like an Adult. Maximus Grey doesn't just walk you through this cosmic playground-he throws you the keys, gives you the rules, and dares you to face yourself in the process. This isn't some fluffy guide to bliss. No, Grey arms you with every piece of dirt and wisdom he's picked up from his own journeys, readying you for the swan dive into your soul with nerves of steel and an unshakable sense of humor.Think of it as your Explorer's Bible-once might be all you need to get through the pages, but you'll come crawling back, dog-eared and wild-eyed, for guidance before every trip. Grey's got it all here: DMT, LSD, MDMA, mushrooms, ketamine-the real heavy hitters that rip through time and ego, yanking you into the only time that's real: RIGHT NOW.
