IAmA guy who's been injecting deadly snake venom into myself for 20 years (for nootropic properties). X-POST /r/AMA

Yeah, I read through his AMA earlier. He never once explains how he feels it's extending his life. It sounds like he has a mental disorder, and needs some therapy.

I started because I listened to a voice of inspiration that blasted into my head one cold night in Connecticut where I am from(20 mins from Newtown) I knew that night which venoms I was going to use and everything. I had a strong feeling that something good would come of it. Felt like Richard Dryfus in Close Encounters or something.

He's hearing voices in his head that tell him to inject snake venom to extend his life. Riiiiight...

EDIT: Another great quote:

Hemotoxic venoms taste ok and sweetish but the neurotoxins taste vile and bitter. Go figure

Swelling and burning pain from hemotoxins. Neurotoxins feel less painful but and seem cleaner, although I am newer to the neurotoxins and am thinking of backing off and sticking with hemotoxins, which was my (accidental) specialty.
