PSYCHEDELIC MONOLOGUES: The Experience, the Meaning, and the Integration

Psychedelic Monologues

Stories, Insights, Integration, and Community Connection

Have you ever had a psychedelic experience that blew your mind, changed your life, scared the hell out of you, or left you wondering what it all meant?

Well, here's your chance to tell your story!

Join the Los Angeles Medicinal Psychedelics Society (LAMPS) as we bring back one of our most popular events, Psychedelic Monologues, for an evening of storytelling, reflection, laughter, and community connection.

The idea is simple: We'll open up the mic to anyone who would like to share one of their most memorable, profound, bizarre, hilarious, challenging, or transformative psychedelic experiences. Whether you've journeyed through heavenly realms, descended into the depths of your psyche, encountered strange beings, experienced profound healing, or simply had an experience that defies explanation, we'd love to hear about it!

But this time, we're adding a new dimension: Integration.

Beyond sharing what happened during your journey, we invite you to explore what the experience meant to you. Did it change your understanding of yourself or the world? Did it lead to meaningful changes in your life? Did it raise more questions than answers? And what, if anything, did you do to integrate the experience afterward?

We'll have several experienced psychedelic integration practitioners on hand who can help storytellers explore these questions a little more deeply, if they wish. Storytellers can also invite questions from the audience—or simply share their stories without further discussion. It's entirely up to them.

You don't have to take the mic to participate! Come listen to some extraordinary stories, meet old friends and make new ones, and enjoy an evening with fellow members of LA's psychedelic community.

All kinds of experiences are welcome—the beautiful and the terrifying, the mystical and the mundane, the enlightening and the downright confusing. We believe there's something valuable to be learned from all of them.

Interested in Sharing Your Story?

We'll have a sign-up sheet at the event for those who would like to take the mic. We anticipate approximately 5–6 minutes per storyteller, with additional time for optional questions and integration.

No special preparation is necessary, and you certainly don't need to have all the answers. Sometimes the most interesting stories are the ones we're still trying to make sense of!

To help create a welcoming and respectful environment, we ask everyone to listen with an open mind, respect confidentiality, and refrain from offering unsolicited advice or interpretations. Participation in any discussion is entirely voluntary.

We hope you'll join us for what promises to be a fascinating evening of shared experiences, insights, and community connection!
