Seriously, thank you so much for posting this. Brought me back to some of my crazy trips back in the day... It's so validating to hear people have had experiences like this, and you articulate it in such a clear fashion, I can put myself in your shoes. I thought I was crazy for so long.

Pro tip for anyone reading this, if your buddy asks you if they're dead during an acid trip, do NOT say "I have no way of knowing for sure" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have to say that I admire you. If something told me that I could get what I want and stop suffering, and for whatever reason, I believed it, I would lie in bed and let everything take its course. The only thing that would convince me otherwise is that I am incapable of believing someone who tells me I can get what I want. In your situation, I would think some demon is deceiving me. If I were to confess (which I doubt), it would only be because it seems to be the opposite of what the malicious voice wants, but that action would stem more from my desire to oppose my imposed destiny than from any search for redemption. It would be the right response for the wrong reason. After all, my spiritual journey only exists because I reluctantly understood that I would never be happy in the physical realm.
