Psilocybin flipped the off switch on my social anxiety like a light switch. It's effect lasted long enough that I thought it permanent. My anxiety and doubts and lack of self worth was gone. Anything that can make you love yourself should be legal.

So weird. I met Josh in Prince William County jail and served him his commissary about 6yrs ago and caught him a few times at church in there right around the time dude was in the trenches finding God. I too found God (again) in that SAME jail literally in the housing dorm unit next to him. Just wild to see him being interviewed by my favorite DW host half a decade later. The lord works in amazing ways.

Psilocybin and psychedelics in general are amazing. I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with OCD. Spent my whole life fighting OCD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

Would like to know from those who have solved PTSD and anxiety, if they have solved it definitively and how to understand what quantity of psilocybin to take and when, for how long. And can you really heal without having an addiction? Thanks to everyone for helping me understand, I want to understand if it's something that can help me solve the problem (I have c-ptsd)

I was horrifically depressed since childhood. It was relentless. I assumed it would ultimately end me somehow. About twelve years ago I randomly accepted the offer from a friend of a few doses of mushrooms. I did them two consecutive nights alone. First night was pretty mild. The second night? Wow. I saw my depression from every angle, realized much. Next day: depression totally gone. Never came back, never coming back. It's like it's a forest far away I can remember, and could probably find again with enough effort, but it has zero impact on anything in my life or mind. They honestly saved my life and improved it immensely. I never did them again, either. I wish there was a good, organized way to administer them to people who would benefit from them.

From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later

I got into a very bad crash when I was 16. We were going 110mph (dumb I know). We crashed directly into a wooden utility pole & our car flipped about 12 times. I was knocked out unconscious immediately. I lost 40% of my blood, broke my neck in 3 places which resulted in paralysis on the left side of my body from the neck down. I also had a traumatic brain injury, broke 2 ribs, a collapsed lung, along with some other injuries. I was life flighted to the nearest trauma center & put into a medically induced coma. We were driving on country roads and there was almost never any other cars. We drove over a small hill that prevented us from seeing oncoming traffic. After going over the hill, there was a truck driving in the middle of the road(which we weren’t expecting to see), so we had to swerve out of the way. We ended up driving on the shoulder of the road, which was gravel. When we went to get back onto the road, we overcompensated, and drove directly into the ditch. I wasn’t able to remember the crash and although that’s a blessing, it was very traumatic to one day wake up in agonizing pain and not remember what happened. I prayed to God for the second time in my life. First time was in the hospital, I asked God to not let me wake up. The second time I asked him to let me remember the crash. I had a dream that night where I watched the crash happen from a third person point of view. Keep in mind, when we crashed, our car flipped before we hit the utility pole so our back bumper crashed into the pole. In the dream, right before the car flipped, I watched an angel wrap their arms around the front left tire. They were ghost like, and it looked like they were somewhat in the ground, if that makes sense. Their arms were able to go through the rim and they held the tire down. This lead to the tire getting stuck in the mud & causing the car to flip before we hit the pole, so we didn’t hit it head on. I knew right then that was the reason we were alive. Now the person that was driving the car was able to remember the entire crash. I asked him what happened. Everything he said was exactly how it played out in my dream. Every detail was spot on. I asked what color the truck was. When he said tan, I knew for sure my dream was from God, as the truck in my dream was tan. Not only did God save my life, he allowed me to regain complete mobility. Praise be to God🙏🏼

I'm not religious in any way, but today I took shrooms looking to 'feel' something. During my high I was aimlessly browsing through RU-vid videos for trippy videos to watch and this video was waiting for me in my RU-vid recommendations. I started watching and saw how 'heavy' the subject matter was, I paused it and resumed after my high so I could watch it with full clarity. .... I'm so speechless. The resonance I have right now, words spoken that awoke something inside of me. I was supposed to see this video and it was no accident. ❤

Please repent and turn to Jesus! Turn from your sins. God wants to save you! The rapture will happen soon where millions of believers will disappear. I don’t want you to be left behind! We must all be ready for the rapture, it is any day now! Jesus will snatch us away. I am ex-LGBT, and I know that I would go to hell if I continued in it. I also know that my divorced and remarried parents will die and go to hell if they don't repent and leave the adultery. For now, my Mom is a believer who goes to church and thinks that she and my Dad are going in the rapture. Her pastor is also divorced and remarried. It's a big lie from the devil that has MANY deceived. What does the Bible say? Loving Jesus means loving His Word. BUT from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; and they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. Mark 10:6‭-‬12 KJV And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery. Luke 16:14‭-‬18 KJV Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. Romans 7:1‭-‬3 KJV And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: but and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 7:10‭-‬11‭, ‬39 KJV “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭6‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭KJV‬‬ This is honestly what the Bible says. The road is definitely narrow. If people want to repent from this, they have got to leave the adulterous relationship altogether and get that divorce to get out of it. Hoping people will get born again now, before it’s too late!

We, as Catholics, are taught that God takes us out of this world when we are at our optimal point. Sounds like your dear son was taken to Christ. It’s normal that you miss him, and wonder what he could have been without the sins he willingly consented to. But, in your case, gratitude seems like a good reaction. Thanks be to God he loved Christ before his death. We all die. Please God, may we open our hearts and souls totally to you, every day that we have left on this earth, which is a school of Eternal Love.❤

If it goes against the word of God, no matter what man said it, it is wrong and a sin. Obey God rather than men.

I feel exactly the same as you my friend. I’ve had Jesus or God intervene in my life on a number of occasions. The most poignant time was when I was in prison and I was really struggling with it. I had started to self harm and cut myself up with a razor blade and I felt like I couldn’t go on any more. One night I was lying on my bed trying to go to sleep and I had all kinds of silly thoughts going around in my head and I decided to ask God for his help. I didn’t ask him to fix it all for me and get me out of prison. But, instead, I asked him to give me the strength to get through the rest of my sentence and stop feeling sorry for myself and to be strong and get through it like a man. The other time was after I had been kidnapped and tortured by some nasty people who were involved in drugs and crime and I was also involved and was an active criminal. I got into debt with these guys and they cut the top part of my ear off. It gave me serious PTSD and I left the area that I was living in and went to stay with one of my friends who lived near London where I was out of harms way. Things eventually turned a bit sour with my friend who was putting me up, so I went back to the area where I was from and was homeless and I stole a tent to sleep in. After a few weeks, the police came and woke me up in my tent and told me that they had got me a flat from the council. I got on the train to go and collect my belongings that were still at my friends apartment and then when I was on the train back to my new apartment, I noticed a black man who was sat on the other side of the aisle and was staring at me quite intently. I asked him if he was okay and his response was to say “ I’m good brother but can I tell you something? “ I replied to him and said “ yes of course you can “ . He then showed me the palm of his hand and on it was written the words, “ Neill , don’t ever forget that God is real and he’s standing by you every day “ . He had those exact words written on his hand and he had no way of knowing my name or what I was going through at the time . Those are just 2 examples of how I know that god is real. I’ve got other examples but those are the 2 that come to mind first. The guy on the train nearly made me burst into tears because I felt like he could see what I was thinking and feeling and he was so real . I could be making something out of nothing but I know that I’m not. And if I am wrong then I don’t care because it has given me the faith to believe that god is real and that he’s by my side. I would rather have the faith and belief that we go somewhere after we die and then be wrong and not even know it when I die than spend years of my life worrying about death and being scared when my time comes. But I do definitely believe that we go somewhere when we die.

@@kaefer_03 - I was raised to believe that anything other than Judaism-rooted Christianity is a distraction. Now, I can see that it's not maybe so simple as that, because people also mean well and just very well might be seeking Jesus Christ without realizing it yet. Still, Evil/Demons/Satan use anything, even things that seem quite calm and peaceful and spiritually en"light"ening, as distractions from the good and true God. There is a very war taking place in the spiritual realm, for us humans to NOT be in God's Army, so to speak, by resting in His Love and building the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. Evil itself want nothing less than to lie and torment and murder us. Distractions aid in that effort and come in a multitude of forms. EX: The Buddha was only a man. That's it. Jesus was not just a man, but God in revelation with humankind. A distraction such as Buddhism, though containing some Wisdom and Truth, if serving still to not ultimately relinquish itself and point ultimately to God/Christ, is quite possibly another ploy by Evil. Humans can also be curious on their own, coming off a bad experience with a church or Christian, and open to an outside point-of-view such as Buddhism. I don't mean it simplistically in an ALL BAD / ALL GOOD kind of way, as if Buddhists are seriously "off", but the nuance of being off by / not an end in itself is THE point. Following God, submitting oneself in humility, accepting Christ's teachings and lavishing Love and Forgiveness of one's sin, is the pinnacle of pursuits. Nothing higher. Nothing equal. IMHO, Buddhism can be a help until finding the Way. It is not the final stop.

Yes amen and all glory to God! I was studying Buddhism and meditating at one point as well! I pray in the name of Jesus that the Lord will touch us all in a new, fresh way! 🤗🥹🌬️. My testimony: I had a madame as a mother and an absent father- I was in the adult industry (a stripper, porn star), I was in 4 modeling agencies, I attended acting classes in New York and LA- I was booked for acting gigs, I was married and divorced already, I got asked to sell my soul in the music industry, I was almost human trafficked, I was in many car accidents and left unharmed, I tried every drug possible, I tried every other belief system like Hindu, witchcraft/new age, Muslim, - and I still didn’t have peace. Until, last year at Santa Monica beach at 3 am- I asked,” God of the universe, reveal yourself to me.” I then started to have a series of dreams and visions of Jesus Christ! I now have a online ministry. God gave me back my parents, my health, my joy, my calling in life, and my peace. There is nothing that compares to Him! Ask Him, He is faithful to reveal himself to you in a new and fresh way as an adult- no matter how many times you’ve strayed before- it’s never too late to come back to the Fathers arms- stronger and mightier than before!

From that point, I saw my need to change my lifestyle, but didn't have the strength to actually live the way I knew I needed to. About one year later, I heard the Gospel, repented of my sin and trusted in Jesus. He changed me at the core of who I am, and I was born again. Never been the same in 21 years!

The last time I took mushrooms was after I was in rehab and had a dream about a man with fire in his eyes standing in the doorway of my room saying follow me. I left rehab the next day and went on a 6 month drug fueled binge culminating in that final mushroom trip. I went to that other realm he spoke of, but I was in hell not purgatory. I died a thousand deaths and I remember each one of them as if they happened 2 seconds ago. Every painful death you can imagine I experienced over and over and over again. I had no relief from God that day because I did not know him and I had outright rejected him. It took me many years after that experience to have my spiritual awakening in Jesus Christ. I’m still terrified by the things I experienced that day but I am so so happy I know and am a child of God now.

Propaganda helps nobody. You don't just "see" things that aren't there, that would be a hallucinogen and not a psychedelic. Oh, right! You said it was a DREAM!! Because nobody else has wacky dreams or anything? Because the entire strangeness of psychedelics COMES from combining the dreamstate with the awake mind, why don't you realize what you saw was your subconscious telling you that you believe in the devil and he will take you if you continue! Of COURSE you felt like you were dying a million times, that's EXACTLY WHAT a high dose does!!!

lots of people have similar anecdotes for every religon after taking LSD. Its only after the trip, when you are trapped back in your ego that you attempt to rationalise it, and if you have already been religiously indoctrinated you will frame it within that. Cristianity just happened to be the way your brain rationalised it, but that doesn't mean its true. Its a similar story from all religons and they cant all be correct. Simply stating yours is the correct one without any evidence is hubris and ignorant of the burden of proof.

I grew up going to church and was a worship leader when i was younger but fell into drugs and life of sin in my college years. i was a drug dealer/ drug user for years and almost died in a car wreck when i was 23. I was in a coma and know 100% that God saved my life thanks to the many prayers said on my behalf(and by the grace of God). Hearing this testimony freaks me out and i know im blessed to have not been exposed to crazy demonic visions or voices despite my history of heavy drug use. If you are reading this please keep me in your prayers and i will keep praying for all the people in the world struggling to stay on the righteous path. God Bless

I use to do everything from DMT, shrooms, LSD, weed and any other psychedelics. I would micro dose and assume it was helping me. Through out my years I would still be sad and depressed. I was still empty and being tormented with regrets and sadness. I learned about christianity and the Bible . Once I did my research I realized I was opening portals for evil entities. My whole life was base off witchcraft and opening portals for evil entities that would help me but push me away from God. I converted from buddhist to Christianity and now I am more happier than ever that I found our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I still am in the process of learning but I do feel better praying and repenting. By the way I was a ex gang banger so I had alot of demons in me. I would pray my whole life to Buddha for help and guidance but didn't really have a answer. When I cried to lord Jesus and ask for help with my addiction and to help me if he was real. I surrendered and beg for help. I felt chills down my spine and the next morning my whole addiction for drugs went away. That's why I became a believer. Amen 🙏

I know him. Met him in the Prince William County Jail in the MOD unit. The M.I.N.D dorm he speaks of ALSO housed s*x offenders. They would go there for safety in a sense. He wasn’t there for that or anything but that alone was a reason a lot of inmate avoided it. Anyways, I remember him because I did commissary and he WAS obsessed with god. I thought he was a phony and gave me fake vibes but after listening to this interview, it makes a lot more sense now that he cleared it up. I’ve seen him slowly grow on FB and sort of became a Jesus freak so he stuck with it and now he’s being interviewed by the great Michael Knowels. I too found god (again) in that SAME MOD unit and caught Josh in church there so I can confirm 100% dude is speaking the truth because I know a lot of the people he ran with and the surrounding area he’s talking about and the drugs are out of control.

The sins in my life I have struggled with are addiction and sexual immorality. While doing hardcore drugs I had been smoking a synthetic "marijuana" (he mentions it in the video and called it K2) and had a seizure. I was with a group of people, I remember I really needed water, I was hearing a high pitched ringing sound, I felt like my mind was detached from my body, then the next thing I remember is seeing my entire life flash before my eyes, over and over again, like a movie reel. In that state I accepted death and that what I was seeing was my eternity. I saw everything good, bad, horrific, over and over again. Then I woke up and the group of people I was with were all standing around me frantically asking me if I was okay or not. No one called 911, no one tried to get help. God was with me that day, im grateful He did not let me die. He was looking out for me before He even saved me.

To this day one of the most spiritually profound moments of my life, I was drowning in a pool, but everything got still, and I was surrounded by light and kept hearing the words “this is not your time you are safe” and seconds later my fully clothed mother dives into the pool and drags me out…we both remember how adamant I was when I told my doctor I believed I encountered angels and I believe they protected me before my mom could get to me that day. I was 5 or 6 and probably sounded silly to my doctor but the way he described his suicide attempt reminds me of that moment, and it absolutely was real.

This is Satan’s final plan.

If you are hallucinating the same thing as other people what is the difference between that and reality. It is a spiritual portal. And every portal that isn’t Jesus Christ leads to the same place.

His testimony is very similar to mine. I used to use a lot of drugs, including psychedelics, and I had issues with addiction. I can really relate to describing substances as almost a romance, and using them to fill the God shaped hole. Four years ago I had my first “bad” trip. It was absolutely terrifying and after that, I was unable to do them, and the other drugs too, despite continuing to try, I couldn’t. And this was after struggling with addiction for ten years. I had bad trips and awful anxiety, even if only taking a little bit. I no longer enjoyed them or any of the other crap I was doing. Fast forward, both me and my husband got saved last year and baptized together. I believe God played a hand in that whole situation. It’s really hard to explain how much that one bad trip changed everything, for the good, of course. But praise God, He is so good.

I got mixed with the occult and started having sleep paralysis. During this time I would hear chains, blood curdling screams and a deep laugh. Every time it happened the room had day light but during the screaming a dark cloud would fill the room. I could move my head and legs but my shoulders were pinned down. It was terrifying. After time i started to leave the occult crap and move toward the light (Jesus). I would continue to have the 'sleep paralysis', once during this I even had the laughing thing communicate with me, and i would communicate with it - it would scream at me in anger when I told it I was trying to follow Jesus. I didn't know sleep paralysis was a thing, then to find out that people would attribute this to demonic activity blew my mind - because that's what i always thought it was. The last time it happened I call on the name of Jesus - the thing vanished and it hasn't happened since.

I found with sleep paralysis that you just need to face the fear head on, and then you realize the "demons" were a total illusion and that their trick was actually getting you to believe that they were real. I once had sleep paralysis and felt/saw a presence in the room. Filled with fear I decided to face it and to fully surrender to whatever happens. The demon/shadow figure approached me with a big knife in its hand and I was filled with terror of death. I kept trusting and eventually it struck me on the chest with the knife. What happened next was amazing. The being vanished, I vanished and just found myself floating in total emptiness. Until another dream formed from that empty space. But I for sure have not had any issues with sleep paralysis or weird beings after that. And I don't have fear in my mind towards supposed supernatural beings like that anymore either.. Basically, you only feed them by believing they are real. By fearing them you grant them reality. Really they are just symbols of that which you fear the most. They aren't actually real, just illusions of the mind. All the best to you.

I always attributed sleep paralysis to a sort of mid-sleep twilight phase (the phase that usually occurs when we’re partially aware of our environs but paddling upon the edges of a dream). One night, however, I was being oppressed & dreamt of a massive, growling shadow-being - who was blacker & denser than the darkness of this night-fallen corridor; & the next thing I knew, he gurgled & roared & rushed at me while my body rushed at him (like 2 powerful magnets rapidly clashing together); & then I instantly awoke to a violent, genuinely painful shove upon my back to my (paralyzed) body & I went flying off several feet to the floor at my bedside. My whole perspective on sleep-paralysis got the worst sort of reality check & I literally had whiplash from it.

I fell into that wrong thinking and spiritual practices. Over a couple decades it took me down increasingly dark paths. In the end, it led to demonic oppression. I was getting strong impulses towards immoral, disgusting behaviour that came from some external source. Luckily I had a Christian (Protestant) upbringing. I wasn't from a very devout family, but had enough of a foundation to recognize and resist the problem. Fr. Ripperger's deliverance prayers helped me and Mary helped me back to her son, my Lord and Savior. I entered RCIA and was confirmed in the Catholic church. I have not been bothered again since I denounced those falsities. Pagan gods really are demons and dabbling in occult, new-age practices is a spiritual dead end.

@Summer D Not quite, but almost! I'd nominate the DW's propagandized view that's clearly working on you, as it is the game of politics. These have been the most shallow talks I've seen, Michael's appearance on whatever was much more intellectually exercising despite being wasted entirely on the wrong demographic. Why reach out so poorly to each demographic, be it the "spiritual", the atheists who live by Satanism, or the actual psychonauts around the world who study the neuro and physiological effects of these substances, then actually use them for good? It's because DW is shallow propaganda, and I guarantee I'm more "extreme" to the right than anyone in this thread so that's no small statement. If we aren't going to accurately cover the subjects, it's a waste of everyone's time since it'll make zero difference politically and only create an echo chamber for well meaning people and another money maker for DW. When Tate was making the rounds and very obviously changing the modern youth's culture for the better by conservative measure, he was jailed and Michael sounded just like the news propaganda pieces. "If he's accused of these things, he CAN'T be a good guy", is what he said. That's not how justice works, and regardless it's a failed capitalization on genuine conservative momentum. Instead we got that long, and oh so cringe interview with the ex-witch. That's some prime sleep material there, it's so empty of substance. Wooo.... Then, the exorcist. Why can an auditorium of thousands witness the events he described but ZERO security cameras, throughout ALL these buildings and decades have ever caught one instance? I try to steelman that argument by asking if quantum observation could play an effect by having some type of reality-shifting consequence to the time-preserved recording of the paranormal, but obviously have never once heard anyone else ask that question nor answer it. I only grew comfortable with conceptualizing reality outside our known existence, because of the effects psychedelics have on our conscious and subconscious. Of which I turned to because a quarter century of begging God proved up fruitless in my efforts to find life after death, but sometimes, something answers the call through psychedelics. Unparalleled peace can strike but that's hard to decipher. This demographic of "spiritual" people is growing more every day as we lose sight of God, so why do such a poor job reaching out to them with videos like this? Psychs ARE physically safe but mentally eviscerating, the exact opposite of most drugs (including alcohol which Michael covered for) which trash the body to make the brain euphoric, and that nature of psychedelics crushing the consciousness leads anyone who's had a high dose to be wary of 'normal' substances like coffee. They gain IMMENSE respect for the power of substances. Because part of the experience is like if you cranked your sensities up to the max, then doubled it. That's the OPPOSITE of retreating from reality through substance, the OPPOSITE of doing oneself harm. The compounds very often show the individual their personalized flaws and faults, or lead them to revel in accomplishments. That's not self harm, that's self reflection which last I checked, is exactly where the benefits of prayer come from!! All that to say, DW is shallow and they end up limiting Michael and Peterson's *pOhtential*. I really wish they'd do these topics more justice, like having an experienced neurologist or even a freaking psychedelic therapist in a third seat explaining the compounds rather than trusting the inside of the head of a literal H addict. Psychedelics are not hallucinogens, you don't SEE things. Visual fields can become distorted to the point of seeming "draggy", "breathing", things very brighter, among other effects, but you don't just see things that aren't there. What's being confused is the fact that the imagination is more dreamlike, but you're awake, so thoughts and daydreams really start popping into your head much faster and much more chaotically. I randomly "felt" a tentacle-like thing stretch from my middle area once, that doesn't mean C'thulhu is inside me. It's more of an artistic subconscious expression that I've been eating like junk and my insides are writhing in need for real food! Imagine if we had someone intelligent analyze his experiences like this and contrast the possibilities? Much more convincing than pretending that the Lord of Creation just puts the prayers of others on hold just so he can wait for someone like this to screw up SO BADLY, that He needs to intervene almost daily after that point. I don't buy it. So why does ANYONE believe what this addict says about demons or light people, when the source of his problems clearly came from his own proclaimed desire to constantly seek more "feelings" from substances? Where would this talk even go, if not serving as the aforementioned echo chamber, a therapy session, and a payday for DW? Nowhere, that's why Michael was silent for almost the entirety and only chimed in with generic Christian teachings we already know.

I did LSD twice as a young teenager. I unfortunately had a horrible trip on my second one. I have a permanent visual perception problem due to this. I can't see clearly to say the least. Its very irritating not being able to see people's facial expressions or the stars at night. Its a purple haziness on everything, almost like a snow flake pattern. I saw the same thing the first time I used LSD but it went away after the trip. I found out years ago that im not the only one out there with this permanent problem. I found out through much research that the diagnosis is called "hallucinogenic persisting perception disorder". Im not alone but I have to live like this forever. I would do anything to see my loved ones faces clearly or the stars at night. I although thank God that I didn't lose all my sight or my life. I need to think on what im grateful for when I deal with this lasting problem.

I took Acid once in college, was always nervous about it, my friends all did it with no problems growing up. This one experience changed my life forever, at first it was bad and hard to deal with, but once i worked through it i found it probably saved my life bc i changed my whole life and how i think bc of it. The person i was before that was on auto pilot, LSD forced me to take control of my own thoughts and actions, it forced me to change my habits and how i perceived myself, the world, other people in my life, and my relationship with God. I might be in the minority in regards to its affect on me, but all the time i think how grateful i am for having that life changing experience. I was asleep before, i am now awake, aware and present. I realize i am a blessed man who could probably never express enough how truly grateful i am for the life ive been given. God is real and he loves us all.

@@aliasjones6381 youll get no arguments from me there. I know psychedelics can be used to treat addicts, and people with PTSD, and this is bc i breaks your perception of reality and allows the mind to perceive things from a different angle. Our minds and who we are is a culmination of all the things weve experienced, our brain makes connections through the things its experienced, psychedelics break those connections temporarily. I should also say that it took me close to 5 years to fully intergrate and comprehend what had happened to me. And the first few years were awful, so much inner dialogue took place in those years. When uve heard ur inner voice one way ur whole life and one day decide to challenge your own thoughts as to why u think the way u do, it becomes a sort of spiritual battle internally, bc u always thought one way without a second thought, and now ur standing up to your own inner voice. It was very hard to function during this period, maintain conversations or just be around people. It sounds crazy, and it was, at the time i didnt understand why it was happening, but now that im on the other side of it by 15+ years i can look back on it as one of the most transformative and important moments of my life.

When Michael said “I feel like my normal everyday is teaming with life” it really struck a chord in me. When I started experimenting with drugs, my life had already started falling apart and I was very depressed and apathetic and miserable. I felt completely disconnected from reality. Cannabis and mushrooms and LSD all made me feel like I had found reality, but it was a new more exciting reality that I’d never experienced before. Now that I’m sober again, my every day does feel like a total trip. Real life is so exciting and engaging and wild. The drugs dont make everything better, they reawaken that novel excitement in your mind when things are new. It’s so much better when you can have the same experience sober and grounded in reality. It took me a long time to find that excitement, and more importantly peace of mind, in sober life.

I do think novelty is a factor but not all. As a bored sperg cannabis would unlock ideas and sensations in my mind the more I would smoke. There was a time that no matter how much I smoked and I wasn’t getting any higher. I’ve never done shrooms or lsd but have had hallucinations twice in my life, neither fun just isolated incidences. I was on a trip in high school and the lights were on but I fell asleep. I woke to feeling and hearing a thud and I see a giant spider unnaturally large on me like it had fell and caused the thud. I looked around and saw more of the spiders crawling down the walls and over everyone else. I yelled “wake up! Spiders everywhere. I saw my friend wake up and it suddenly was dark, the lights were off, and my friend is cussing me about not messing with him. It wasn’t a dream. Maybe a hypnagogic hallucination. The other time was an out of body experience. Neither one did I consume hallucinogens that I know of or suspect being dosed or anything. I found neither fun but could see how people would be drawn to those experiences.

Interesting perspective - i've definitely felt that and had to cut back. Now I use weed as a end of the day, mentally unwind and relax/stop my body from hurting, once all work and chores are done and it's fantastic for me. I do a mushroom trip once every couple months for introspection. I can definitely see how consistent use of mushrooms or all day smoking of weed could dull your sense of reality.

This sounds like the journey (hornets nest) my eldest son took. He was diagnosed with adhd in 1996. I allowed the doctors to medicate (drug) him through first grade. About 6 months in I stood up to say, NO MORE DRUGS. My son turned into a zombie on those drugs. The school told me he would not be welcome at the school unless I drugged him. That began my homeschooling journey. But I think it was a gateway to him becoming addicted to drugs later in life. I don't know that for certain but I have a good bunch. He was the only one of my 5 kids to become an addict. Unfortunately, to my absolute dismay, my son ODed in 2017 from fentanyl at the age of 26. Please do not ever allow the doctors or teachers tell you you must put your baby on drugs!! It infuriates me fiercely!!

This is heartbreaking. May your son rest in peace with the Lord. The addiction altered his free will to where he was a slave. Through the grace of God, may he find the peace he yearned for. I will keep you in prayer. I work in schools, and do not agree with the general policy of medicating children willy nilly. Some children are just bouncy, others have severely chaotic dysfunctional families, some need a little more time to mature. It used to be that very few children had actual mental disorders that could possibly be treated with medications, but I'm seeing more mental illness in very young children nowadays. Even for those children, I think it's unwise to prescribe medications that might do serious damage over time. Mind you, I currently work with very young children who have injured school staff, and I still don't agree with medicating them except in extremely rare circumstances. Meds almost always only serve to solve the adults' problems, not the students. Some of the staff have siblings who have mental or neurological disabilities, and they think that it's normal to prescribe meds for behavior. They even think it's abuse if parents reject medication for their children. I'm thankful that my daughter rejected medication for my grandson even with the principal insisting he had to be on behavior drugs. My daughter told the principal, "I'm the one who has to look him in the eye when he's an adult struggling with long term side effects from the drugs that will make your workday easier." But I think she had that courage because I had shared my experiences, the facts I knew, and my opinions with her before she ever had children. Most parents don't have the luxury of knowing someone with reliable expertise, which makes them easy targets for misinformed, poorly educated school personnel and pill pushing doctors. My grandson was later diagnosed with a neurological condition called Tourette Syndrome. He's never been on pharmaceutical medications for it, although for some who have TS the muscle tics are so damaging that they can be very dangerous, to the point of needing hospitalization. Yet most medical staff are uninformed about the condition and see it as an annoying thing to deal with. Someone with that severity of TS does need muscle relaxants, but a child who has annoying muscle or vocal tics doesn't need medication. The singer Jamie Grace has TS, and so does a famous soccer player, and even some actors. And as with the ADHD drugs, some children who get automatically put on drug cocktails for TS end up with drug addiction in adulthood, which only compounds their struggles. P.S. My grandson will be graduated from high school this June and is applying to colleges. I don't know if that would have been possible had he been put on the "zombie drugs," and my heart breaks for every mother who doesn't have support to use natural solutions instead of prescribed medications.

This came on my feed months after it aired but is it ever awesome! Josh's testimony blew me away, as I'm sure it's done for a lot of people ❣️❣️❣️ I was riveted at the part where he sees "The Cloud of Witnesses, " the Saints praying for him and can feel their energy and love giving him strength 💖💖💖 I'm a Convert to Catholicism but know my Bible from many years as a Protestant and these two images come together beautifully into one mighty spiritual reality! And then The Cross manifests followed by the appearance of our LORD smiling like He's happy to see this silly, sinning human being, which we all are😭😭😭 Too beautiful ✝️✝️✝️ Michael, I think I just got catechized again listening to you repeat "This is My Body." Will be meditating on that. So much to take in from this one vid. And I didn't know you spoke such beautiful Italian! I hope we get to hear you speak it some more. The "non piange" from Beatrice reminded me if my favorite Italian Christmas song "Gesu Bambino," where they sung "O bel Bambin non piangere..." (Not sure about my spelling. Ilove the language but don't know it well) JESUS LORD of all creation, save Your people ✝️✝️✝️🙏💙🙏

I used to use drugs to escape the pain I felt with my family. First my little brother died, then my mom. It was an escape. I smoked pot, tripped on LSD, took other psychedelics from all kinds of natural sources from other countries where I used to travel and went to countless Dead shows, listened to Afro-Cuban music, which I didn't realise was tied to Santeria. I then got into coke and drinking. Finally, through the love of Jesus Christ, I confronted my pain from way back and became free. Yes, life constantly has challenges, but I do not need to "delve" in to psychedelics or numb myself with other drugs any longer. Praise Yeshua!!

Praise God for saving you! Jesus delivers. We must all be ready for the rapture, it is any day now! Jesus will snatch us away. I am ex-LGBT, and I know that I would go to hell if I continued in it. I also know that my divorced and remarried parents will die and go to hell if they don't repent and leave the adultery. For now, my Mom is a believer who goes to church and thinks that she and my Dad are going in the rapture. Her pastor is also divorced and remarried. It's a big lie from the devil that has MANY deceived. What does the Bible say? Loving Jesus means loving His Word. BUT from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; and they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. Mark 10:6‭-‬12 KJV And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery. Luke 16:14‭-‬18 KJV Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. Romans 7:1‭-‬3 KJV And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: but and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 7:10‭-‬11‭, ‬39 KJV “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭6‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭KJV‬‬ This is honestly what the Bible says. The road is definitely narrow. If people want to repent from this, they have got to leave the adulterous relationship altogether and get that divorce to get out of it. Hoping people will get born again now, before it’s too late! Maranatha!

The story that this guy is telling us and the way he’s explaining it to show how he’s not into the occult necessarily but does believe that there are other people or beings that are playing their part in influencing the decisions that he makes, is almost identical to the story that I have got and what I’ve been through as I was growing up and how I behaved as I was going through life and trying to make sense of it all. I really enjoyed watching this video and need to say it again that I really listened to every single word and I can relate to this so much. I’ve watched this video 3 times now back to back because I have missed a few parts where I wasn’t concentrating on every word that is being said.

Without His grace mercy and truth, we are blind.

Jesus eyes were burning bright like the sun , but you can see his silhouette, As he got closer and was right about to pick me up I awoke from the dream. Covered in sweat and I started to cry . Iam not a holy roller , Iam a similar age to Josh , and this happened right before COVID started. Scariest most real spiritual encounter I’ve ever had . Praise be to Jesus .

I hadn't slept for days and I was seeing hell and really weird things were happening and I then fought with my family and thought they had demons in them and hearing voices . My family even called our Pastors to pray for me. But that night I really found Jesus and I was praying and crying to Him to save me. I felt as if it was a battle for my soul. Since then I don't do narcotics and I'm a firm believer of Jesus ❤ it was a terrible ordeal and I'm so grateful that Jesus stood with me despite my sin and He brought me back to the fold.

I agree. I have tried a few different drugs including mushrooms. Around that time I started experiencing a lot of evil things, sleep paralysis, out of body experiences when I wasn’t on anything and my home was having serious paranormal activity. People who really believe they become more spiritual by doing these drugs need to understand it is all counterfeit and the only real way to have a spiritual encounter is through our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. It is very dangerous for us to open ourselves up and make ourselves vulnerable to that demonic activity and the devil is a liar and confuses which is why so many humans fall for it. I was having constant sleep paralysis and astral projecting on accident and than my home was having constant undeniable paranormal activity. Finally, I called on Jesus Christ and he rescued me like he has so many others. His love and patience and mercy and grace is endless and I am so grateful for all he has done in my life. Praise Jesus!

I was raised in a loving and Christian household so thankfully I have been very shielded from having many personal experiences of my own. My grandmother is a witch so my mother was very very diligent at teaching me about this side and taking it seriously. Growing up in the faith it’s sad to see how many Christians (Including my self) forget out how prevalent spirits are. It’s so fascinating to hear the relationship between demons and drugs. I’m a hairdresser and the vast majority of my coworkers are very “spiritual” drug users. There’s not a day it work that I don’t hear something about astrology or manifestation. And I’m struggling to trust God and have the confidence through Him to speak out against the evil that I’m surrounded by.

Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication.

Im an ex Muslim and I remember since i was 7 years old i started praying this "God lead me to the right way" it was also a Islamic (dua) prayer verse. Then i got into new age things but i was still asking for right way. Then i got saved the first thing i read when i just randomly opened bible for the first time in my life, the first verse I read was “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6).

The humility this guy has is something I deeply admire. If you take anything away from this, understand that remaining humble is another step closer to the Lord and who He is. This guy makes Jesus tangible to those who will never darken the doors of a church. Powerful. And the enemy will be overcome by the blood of the Lamb AND the word of our testimony.

I almost didn’t click on this because I had a very pompous eye rolling moment thinking I don’t need to hear about some guy on drugs. I am SO GLAD I was convicted to watch! God please forgive me for not loving others the way you ask us to. This man’s testimony was absolutely a beautiful tapestry of truth and transparency and the real love of our GOD! Wow! Thank you for this video! Keep them coming! I even subscribed to Joshua’s channel! God is using him in big ways and I pray I can help spread his story in his words to help others I love dearly. Thank you!!!!

Jesus Christ is Lord and he is coming soon. Catholicism is not biblical. Please repent and don’t pray to marry or worship statues. We must all be ready for the rapture, it is any day now! Jesus will snatch us away. I am ex-LGBT, and I know that I would go to hell if I continued in it. I also know that my divorced and remarried parents will die and go to hell if they don't repent and leave the adultery. For now, my Mom is a believer who goes to church and thinks that she and my Dad are going in the rapture. Her pastor is also divorced and remarried. It's a big lie from the devil that has MANY deceived. What does the Bible say? Loving Jesus means loving His Word. BUT from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; and they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter. And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery. Mark 10:6‭-‬12 KJV And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail. Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery. Luke 16:14‭-‬18 KJV Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. Romans 7:1‭-‬3 KJV And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: but and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 7:10‭-‬11‭, ‬39 KJV “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭6‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭19‬-‭21‬ ‭KJV‬‬ This is honestly what the Bible says. The road is definitely narrow. If people want to repent from this, they have got to leave the adulterous relationship altogether and get that divorce to get out of it. Hoping people will get born again now, before it’s too late! Maranatha!

“We’re sick of this kid. He’s coming in, and taking hard won souls from our kingdom, then has the audacity to eat off our table”. That gave me chills. What a wake up call, and a deep conviction about partaking in the worship of false idols and hedonisms of the world. Superb testimony. I’ve never understood what fear of the Lord is. I know we’re supposed to have a holy fear of God, but I’ve never understood how that works, or what it should look like. It’s always been such a contradicting phrase to my ears. I think his testimony has maybe helped me grapple with it a bit more.

As a believer I fell into the deception of psychedelics and thinking I could connect with God at a much deeper level, and it was something I did constantly, from shrooms to LSD to DMT, and at first I enjoyed it a lot, I was comfortable, I had a great time, it made entertainment that much more fun, until my first few “bad trips” where I could literally see demonic faces, at first I didn’t take it so serious, until the closer I tried getting to God with a sober mindset, I started feeling less drawn into acid, my drug of choice, so when I fell back into it, I could literally feel such a heavy demonic presents surrounding me, now when I’d listen to music or watch videos, I could see demons behind my screen, when I’d play my guitar and tried singing, I could feel a heavy presence in front of me as well, and I’ve always been the type to rebuked demons from my presence but at one point I was surrounded by demons and they were closing in and no matter how hard I tried, I could not get them to leave me, I begged God for mercy and grace and since then I haven’t cared to touch a single drug of any kind. To top it off, at the time of that bad trip, my wife was going through a hard time at work and feeling like she was being mistreated and not valued in any way, and it was shown to me by those exact demons, how they were the ones pulling those strings against my wife and so when I was trying to text her what was going on and what was truly going on, and how it was best for her to quit, anytime I tried texting out a word, my hands were dragged away, it got so difficult to try texting her that I had to just call her and afterwards I was able to be brought back to peace. Same happened the trip before that when I was trying to tell my wife about certain tv shows and music I didn’t want my daughter watching anymore, and how these demons were trying to poorly influence our daughter, but again I wasn’t even allowed to form a sentence before having to call my wife. When you’re doing these things comfortably or without an ounce of faith in you, it’s fun, but when you realize the spiritual realm you’re opening yourself up to, it gets much more deeper and scary.

Same with weed, I used to love and enjoy how it would make me feel, until it started making me feel really uncomfortable and paranoid, it opened my eyes to so much more, and how when I would do it with others, it would just draw me in to see how miserable literally everyone around me was and how broken they were, by how they would vent and deep down it hurt me to know this, because just like myself they’ve all come from broken backgrounds and not just that but they were attempting to fill voids, I know forsure they could never fill, without the presence of God and so after I stepped away, I literally started praying for those same friends and speaking on Gods behalf and sharing the gospel and living as a light for them.

I'm tempted to really dig this story. However, two things occur to me: A) His story is very flashy and dramatic. It's captivating. It could be made into a movie. There's lots of intriguing tidbits to unpack and it draws you totally in. That could be seen as a good thing and evidence of the truth of it... and I'm not saying he's not telling the truth, but I digress. The point is that it is a little too captivating. B) Michael Knowles is clearly a Catholic. Many psychedelic users are drawn to Catholicism. Why? Because Catholicism is very VISUAL oriented, and also there is a heavy emphasis on mystical experience. It's similar with Eastern Orthodoxy. Both are very attractive "Christian" denominations to more mystically minded and "heady" converts. Yet Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy are very unbiblical. I've been through all of this. I was attracted to both. I still find Gregorian and Orthodox chants to be entrancing... but I am wary of listening to them these days. The simple fact is that you cannot be a Catholic or Orthodox and claim to be a TRUE Christian because Christianity is SCRIPTURE based, CHRIST-alone centered, and not based upon man-made traditions, practices, or man-centered mystical experiences. We walk by faith, not by sight, and not by the traditions of men. The eucharist does not save you. Confession to a priest does not save you. Rituals do not save you. Baptism (although preferred) does not save you. Church buildings and "church people" do not save you. Religiously flavored mystical/psychedelic experiences do not save you. Christ alone saves. You do nothing. Ephesians 2:8-9 " For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast." Post-script: Some may ask "Well couldn't Christ use psychedelics to save someone? Couldn't Christ use the Catholic Church to save someone? Couldn't Christ use a mystical experience to save someone?" Sure he can... but we shouldn't worship these things. Essentially we're worshiping Lucifer if we seek these experiences or base our faith upon them. We're not worshiping God. Worshiping God is walking by faith in the Spirit, praying as ceaselessly as you can, and hoping in things NOT SEEN... since God is an invisible spirit. Curiously, we also have no idea what Jesus looks like since He existed before a time of photography or even self-portrait art., and I think that's for a reason. Worship Christ who is God incarnate in Spirit, and not by sight. Do not seek signs, or voices, or experiences, or tokens, or icons, or temples, or a place to call a spiritual home (for your home is not in this world)... just seek God. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. Post-post-script: I would advise all to examine this man's overall doctrinal beliefs. Both men, really. I am not saying this out of hatred or judgment. I think these guys are probably very likeable guys, probably genuine in their testimonies. Yet if they ultimately mislead people, even unknowingly, into false teachings... it hurts others who are probably very vulnerable and raw (as it seems many folks in the comments section are) and therefore very open to emotional manipulation and not rational examination of these matters.
