Having taken many illicit / illegal substances myself over time, I can totally agree to this.

It makes you energetic, talkative, interested in everything, caring for everything. It really is a wonder drug for someone like me who can be low-energy and sometimes quite cynical about the World.

You feel a connection to everything that is genuinely very difficult to describe unless you’ve experienced it yourself. Your empathy is through the roof and you sincerely feel that when you’re talking with someone, you’re really listening and not just hearing.

Anyhow, that’s my 2 cents. Obviously if you ever try it, be mindful that these effects are the drugs working but it can help to break down some prejudices when you’re back in reality…which is nice.
