Gues you could get in trouble with valve software then...  Everything is always okay in the end, if it's not, then it's not the end.

But I can't help but think maybe one day, if I can find someone who actually knows what they're doing...
Anyone else here ever think about/research this? Or already have a hole in their skull? I have several holes in my skull. My wife drilled them because she said they would help oxygenate my brain and add a new twist on our love life. I noticed a pronounced CNS stimulation during the operation! Now I can't seem to remember our anneversary and key details of her personality, among many other positive benefits.

DMT is my alternative headache therapy. You could say that DMT kept/keeps me from putting a hole in my head that I wasn't born with.

Do you suffer from chronic headaches, migraines, Cluster Headaches? Just curious.

Not to sound like totally judgmental meany head. But I think this idea is probably one of the stupidest things I've ever heard of. And even if it was the only way on earth to induce a psychedelic experience or any altered state of consciousness I would never even begin to consider it. Why would you even contemplate this when there are so many ways to alter your mind? Not to mention the fact it does nothjng more than kill you or cause extreme pain and permanent discomfort. That moment when you wonder if this time you went too far....
Obviously everything discussed here is the fictional accounts of someone with an out there imagination. I mean really could any of these tales be real?

I can understand the OPs obsession with drilling a hole in their skull. Sometimes, when i am using a chainsaw, i get the urge to grab the chain while revving the engine to the max. Or when i am driving i get the urge to veer off of the road. Also, when i was a little boy of about 6 years old, my mum had a food blender (the type with the spinning blades on that you use to push into jars to macerate fruit and suchlike). I turned it on and shoved into my cheek. It actually managed to get stuck on my face as far as i can remember. If anyone wants to drill holes in their heads i would recommend using a good quality cordless variable speed drill. If it has a hammer action function make sure that it is switched off, as this could possibly result in splintering bone. Maybe put it on a low speed setting in order maintain some control once the skull has been pierced. Or you could use a drill stop just to be extra sure that no brain damage occurred . A smaller sized drill bit of about 6mm would need a bit of extra RPM but i personally would go for something like 10mm. Below is a link on how to cheaply and efficiently drill holes to required depths . http://www.ronhazelton.c..._depth_using_drill_stops

This is on my bucket list, right after I've bifurcated my penis. I think even spiritual technologies themselves have to evolve or die. Trepanning, like bifurcation, probably has its reasons for disappearing. Notwithstanding some British aristocrat who seems to be intent on pushing it forwards. And she sounds so smart! I might be wrong, but I'm happy to take the risk on this one. “I sometimes marvel at how far I’ve come - blissful, even, in the knowledge that I am slowly becoming a well-evolved human being - only to have the illusion shattered by an episode of bad behaviour that contradicts the new and reinforces the old. At these junctures of self-reflection, I ask the question: “are all my years of hard work unraveling before my eyes, or am I just having an episode?” For the sake of personal growth and the pursuit of equanimity, I choose the latter and accept that, on this journey of evolution, I may not encounter just one bad day, but a group of many.” ― B.G.

^ Very interesting video... I wonder why the penis bifurcation died off?

Zolmitriptan, Sumatriptan, etc Also I heard somewhere that LSD is effective in treating cluster headaches? So the 5HT receptors must play a role..

This is an unhealthy obsession slewb. You will like your skull intact. With a hole in your skull, won't the fluid surrounding the brain leak out? Don't you think all sorts of nasty bacteria and molds could get into that hole and infect your brain? Also consider that cranial bone is very thick and very dense and will require alot of pushing force to be drilled through. This will increase the chance of suddenly drilling through and pushing the drill too far, into the brains below a bit. Seems completely irresponsible and quite frankly delusional from a medical point of view. I too recall the story of the guy who drilled the hole in his skull. Weird stuff. Whatever ailments you're trying to alleviate, there are surely other ways that aren't so dangerous. For instance: Tryptamines like Psilocin & LSD are amazingly succesfull in aborting migraine/cluster head ache attacks. LSD & Psilocin do this at low doses that are hardily even noticably psychoactive. Try this first, before drilling into your cranium. Hell get that deluded idea out of your cranium  No disrespect, but this is wildly irresponsible and indifferent to your health. I'd look into other, lesk risky ways of altering consciousness if I were you.... Have you tried Psychedelics?  I love psychedelics because they offer temporary alteration of consciousness. Why would you want to risk damaging your brain to permanently alter your consciousness? Why would you want to permanently alter your consciousness anyways? I can only once recall semi seriously joking to myself that I'd have liked to destroy certain parts of my brains once: It was when I was in the deepest depth of a horrible depression in which I was overwhelmed by all flavors of disphoric sensations and emotions and I just wanted it to stop. Or when my mind became persistantly overactive at night, not allowing me to sleep untill after at least 4 in the morning. I wanted to stop feeling so overcharged and restless veeery badly too. Willing to damage my brain was how bad I wanted to stop feeling that way. Luckily I wasn't entirely serious and it was that humor kept me going and got me out of the deepest depths of depression into a more friendly mindspace again. Are these feelings I described the kinds of feelings that got you interrested into drilling holes into your cranium?

here is a little trick for getting rid of headaches and even migrianes , this works without need of psyhedelics or any medication as the headache arises , whether in the back of the brain , frontal lobes or any other part of the head , concentrate on the third eye and bring all the energy there , keep concentrating inbetween the eyebrows till the headache is gone and only an intense pressure remains only on the third eye, while doing this also focus on exhaling your breath with a calm attitude after the headache is gone there will still be pressure on third eye , now at this point forget about the third eye and shift total attention to breath , exhaling in a calm manner remember eventually the attention needs to be on breath , not the third eye as the attention moves to breathing/exhaling mostly , the pressure on the third eye will disappear works in 2 minutes or less depending on skill illusions !, there are no illusions there is only that which is the truth

After posting, I wondered (briefly) if I'd been a bit "closed-minded" (pardon the pun) on body-modding as a possible path to enlightenment. But the more I thought about it, I don't think so. All the weird shit we can do to ourselves, others (including animals) well, it's just violence written in flesh. Nature strives to send us all into the world perfectly designed, so it seems something of an epistemological error to assume otherwise. When flint axes were all we had to play with, I can sorta see the fascination, but mutilation is no longer an answer to anything, if it ever was. “I sometimes marvel at how far I’ve come - blissful, even, in the knowledge that I am slowly becoming a well-evolved human being - only to have the illusion shattered by an episode of bad behaviour that contradicts the new and reinforces the old.

as the headache arises , whether in the back of the brain , frontal lobes or any other part of the head ,
concentrate on the third eye and bring all the energy there , keep concentrating inbetween the eyebrows till the headache is gone and only an intense pressure remains only on the third eye, while doing this also focus on exhaling your breath with a calm attitude
after the headache is gone there will still be pressure on third eye , now at this point forget about the third eye and shift total attention to breath , exhaling in a calm manner
remember eventually the attention needs to be on breath , not the third eye
as the attention moves to breathing/exhaling mostly , the pressure on the third eye will disappear
works in 2 minutes or less depending on skill Very sound advice Jin. Or better still, once the pressure has been transferred to the third eye, drill a hole in your head in front it. It not only relieves the unwanted pressure but you are also able to see a lot more with the third eye without all the skin and bone in the way. I think that body modification is an individual choice and we have to respect our fellow sentient beings choices, as long as they arnt hurting others.

A guy down the road from me drilled 12 holes in his head before he died . It doesnt realy hurt because there are very few nerves in the way . The problem is that the brain lives in a sort of sack that protects it from infection . If you break through it you are in danger of serious infection . Question ---- > " Third eye " ?????? What third eye ? The one that doesnt exist that " spiritual " people sell expensive books about ? Mushrooms are sensative to light but they have no eyes , so are trees = Just because an organ is said to be light sensative it doesnt mean that it is , was or ever will be an eye . I am autism spectum ........ please dont burn me at the stake for being honest .
