    Very good points. As in my reply above, I have in fact pretty much just done this. I went to South America last month and will be for a few months, volunteering. I left everything …

    I agree. I would never take drugs of any kind. I've seen what they do to people who are generally happy. I can only imagine what they'd do to someone with negative thoughts.
