We Are Live!
Hello Reddit, after many crazy years and a psychedelic tidal wave, we at Heroic Hearts Project are back to answer your questions on veterans issues, mental health, and of course psychedelics. You may not have seen our previous AMA but this time I will be hanging out at home instead of doing a crazy ultramarathon. Previous AMA
Proof: Here's my proof! Check out our website Heroic Hearts Project
Some updates on HHP since we last talked:
We have curated a variety of veteran programs that may include the following substances: ayahuasca, psilocybin, ibogaine, ketamine, and 5-MeO-DMT
Working with partners like the Mission Within we have been able to help hundreds of veterans find healing through psychedelics including Army Rangers, Marine Raiders, Pararescue Jumpers, Navy SEALs and Top Gun Pilots as well as amazing service men and women from a variety of branches and specialties.
We have worked closely with amazing organizations like MAPS, Charuna, Fireside Project, The Hope Project, Reconsider
Since the last AMA, Heroic Hearts Project has been featured in the Economist, Forbes, USA Today, and the New York Times i, ii, iii as well as the personal highlight of being on the Montel Williams podcast
We now have branches in the US, UK, and Canada to better serve the local veteran voice.
2I am a marine biologist and the author of the new book "why sharks matter: a deep dive with the world's most misunderstood predator."
EDIT: Will try to answer other questions later today, but have done the one hour scheduled for this. Thanks everyone for your fun and interesting questions!

Hey Reddit
I’m James Vaughan, Founder of Ndemic Creations, and creator of hit mobile/PC/console games Plague Inc. and Rebel Inc. (as well as a board game)
Today is Plague Inc’s 10 year anniversary and over 180 million people have played it! I started making Plague Inc. as a hobby in 2011. Since its launch in May 2012, I quit my job and now spend all my time making games with 12 other people at Ndemic Creations.
A lot of people don't know about Plague Inc: The Cure. We made it with the help of the WHO back in 2020 and it's free at the moment. https://plagueinc.com/cure
Ask Me Anything!
Proof: Here's my proof!
Edit5: Right - I've done a pass of the questions that came in over night. If I haven't answered your question - it means I've already answered a similar question already. Thanks so much everyone for getting involved - maybe see you all in another 10 years lol!

Reality check, now!
WE ARE AWAKE! (or are we?)
That very basic premise is the jumping point for my new novel, A Dream of Waking Life, which I'm so excited to finally share with everyone. In celebration of the release of my novel, I've decided to host another AMA.
Link to the AMA from last year with thousands of wonderful questions from all of you: Past AMA
My free guide to the basics of lucid dreaming: Lucid Dreaming Guide
To follow me on social media, check out any of my work, or reach out to me personally, everything you need to know (I think?) can be found on my site, https://officialesfein.com/
Tens of thousands of people over the past decade have reached out to me for help with starting (and stopping!) their lucid dreaming journey, asking for insight beyond what I provided in the beginner's guide that millions have viewed. So, ask away, fellow oneironauts, psychonauts, and generally curious minds! Let's go lucid!
Proof: Here's my proof!
Edit: Additional Proof in the form of an instagram post I just posted: proof
Edit 2: Once again, you are all blowing my mind at how interested you are in lucid dreaming. I love to see this level of passion for lucidity! It wasn't always so popular! I just want to assure you that I am still answering questions. I like to give everyone a genuine answer. I'll be here all day, and if the questions keep coming, I'll be here for 3 full days just like last AMA. So, keep asking, and I will get to your question in time. I'm sorting by oldest, so first come first serve. If I skip your question, it's probably because it was already answered, so make sure to check some of the answers too. Thanks everyone!
