English to Italian: The e-psychonaut drugs’ psychopharmacology General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Pharmaceuticals
Source text - English E-psychonauts are those individuals aiming to experience self-induced altered states of consciousness in an attempt to investigate their own mind, while possibly addressing spiritual questions, through a direct experience. The typical key-skills of e-psychonauts include high levels of pharmacological/pharmaceutical knowledge of psychoactives and a strong desire to share/disseminate online their ‘on drug’ experiences. Psychonauts have been schematically defined as either ‘mind navigators’, where the use of drugs is carried out in order to explore the frontiers of the mind, typically preferring a range of entheogens/plant substances conferring the user a divine experience, or ‘chemicals’ experimenters, e.g. researchers/experimenters of novel chemicals in order to document the drug’s effects and to assess whether it is safe for others to use.
Translation - Italian Gli psiconauti elettronici sono quegli individui che mirano a sperimentare stati alterati di coscienza autoindotti nel tentativo di esplorare la propria mente, affrontando possibilmente questioni spirituali, attraverso un'esperienza diretta. Le abilità chiave tipiche degli psiconauti elettronici includono alti livelli di conoscenza farmacologica/farmaceutica degli psicoattivi e un forte desiderio di condividere/divulgare online le proprie esperienze "sotto effetto". Gli psiconauti sono stati schematicamente definiti "navigatori della mente", quando l'uso di droghe viene effettuato per esplorare le frontiere della mente, preferendo solitamente una gamma di enteogeni/sostanze vegetali che conferiscono all'utente un'esperienza divina, o "sperimentatori di sostanze chimiche", ad esempio ricercatori/sperimentatori di nuove sostanze chimiche, che documentano gli effetti del farmaco e valutano se è sicuro per essere utilizzato da altre persone.
