Monica, I just read your first post, and thank you for addressing the natural/synthetic issue. I find myself in agreement you, although I would like to try acid at least once. But mainly I am interested in the natural ones, Psilocybin, Mescaline, Ayahuasca.
In response to your second, I do think that this is possible. While they are not addictive in the physical, bodily sense, they can be addictive psychologically. And that can be bad news. On the other hand, I've heard of shamans that used ayahuasca very frequently for a number of years, and eventually they didn't need it anymore. They just always had their third eye opened, were always living in that world. I don't know if these are true, but it is an interesting thought. On the whole, I would agree with you again that one certainly ought to do these things in moderation. The closest thing to frequent tripping I might ever do is if I did repeated ceremonies within a short amount of time with shamans doing ayahuasca or something similar. Even then, it wouldn't be long-term.
