What I think everyone should experience (at least once) in their lifetime?

I grew up a very sheltered girl, in a suburban town, with very little to do and go to. When I met my boyfriend, who lives in the city, has a variety of places to go and a variety of things to do-things like thebadthing or Raves were absolutely Beyond me. I was terrified when I went to my first Rave with him, and moreso when I walked around and saw people do things I know they shouldn't be doing in a public-ish setting.

Mind you, I was 24 when this happened-not 16 or 18 like the majority of the people there was.

But I learned very quickly how beautiful, caring, and kind the community was. I got complimented on my outfit, people kept asking me if I was hydrated and made sure I was comfortable in the setting. I made a lot of friends in such a short amount of time and every one of them was honest, kind and open!

Then I got offered thebagthing for the first time, at a convention after we went to the cons rave. We were in a parkinglot with a bunch of friend I was and wasn't familiar with. I was afraid I'd have a bad experience, but I tried it anyway. An hour passed by and suddenly I felt like every negative vibe in my body just dismissed itself.

I have VERY bad self-esteem and often put myself down. I have a hard time speaking up because of a very manipulative relationship I was in. After the effects of thebadthing kicked in, I felt absolutely liberated. I could talk about everything that was on my mind, and tell people every good thing they needed to know about themselves. It felt like I was floating, time passed so quickly and everything was just so emotional and beautiful.

My boyfriend always told me to try it once.
I joked with him that I would.
But I thought to myself that'd never happen-because it was abadthing.

But it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it'd be.

I DO WANT TO SAY THAT SINCE THEN I'VE ONLY DONE IT ONCE.
As it was an event and I wanted to share the experience, I have not done it again. It can effect the seratonin levels of your brain if used frequently.

Fortunately I have a rave veteran on my side who doesn't abuse things like this and instead educates me :) so please keep that in mind.

I work long hours in an office with very little traffic, so I'm constantly trying to find ways to consume my time. It gets VERY boring, VERY fast. How many of you are around the same age as me? I hope I'm not the only oldie here... /cri
