well i've said for years that my brain produces its own mind-altering substances, in larger amounts than other people produce it, and it does have an effect on me. i've always kinda seen the world very differently from other people ... yeah i do think that my mind actually produces its own ... how are they called? psychedelics.

That might just be a flavor autism honestly,

Source: i have one of these flavours of autism. People have often judged me for being high while i know there where no drugs were involved.

No OUTSIDE drugs involved, but maybe there are internal drugs involved. You wouldn't know, because you've always felt that way, it's normal to you. But those on the outside recognize typical trippy behavior.

Technically speaking its all drugs for everyone all the way down.

Even besides the fact that mood and emotions are largely controlled by endocannabinoids. The difference between normal chemicals, medical chemicals and drug ones is a cultural distinction.

yeah, well, the thing is that i've read many drug trip reports and what people describe there is often similar to what i experience anyways. so i see the connection there.
