Darkness isn't inherently evil. It's only scary because you don't know what's coming. The key is in the understanding that by letting go and surrendering to it, you are embracing the darkness that is a part of you.
Think of darkness as a representation of everything we don't know. Walking fearlessly into the unknown is moving forward with confidence that whatever is out there has something to teach, if you are willing to learn.

Poppers are ubiquitous in the queer and kink communities, but they can have harmful effects when not used responsibly. When combined with blood pressure medications or meds for erectile dysfunction, they can cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. When combined with meth, cocaine, or other stimulants, they can increase heart rate and even cause irregular heartbeat.
