so lately I've been having crazy relapses or I've been tripping w/o tripping persay. Its totally lame... im tempted to give up the psychedelic act if this keep up cause it seems like there is always a mouse running by my foot or a wall vibrating or a side eye visual that isnt there. Not to mention the audio hallucinations I've been getting lately. I never thought I was at risk of possibly going schizo... now im kinda getting worried. Any comments? im not to worried bout door handles zooming in and out or things running across my vision but hearing whispers you cant understand or just blurps here and there are sorta pissin me off. Im not really afraid of the voices or visuals but some of them have just been sneakin up on me. God now im feeling paranoid.... Ok so I was just reading up on schizophrenia and I found out a drug used to treat it is called risperdal and I just realized thats the name of a drug my brother takes for "depression" hes always been a little un-social and quiet not to mention very immature for his age. Could he have schizophrenia and no one ever told me just because of the social factor of being classified as a schizo or the fact I could prossibly make fun of him for it (I wouldnt but im his brother and when we were kids im sure I would of used it). btw I took a bottle of DXM pills a few weekends ago and smoked over a dime of weed on top of it.
hmmm how much were you doing? are u on anything else even prescription meds? this sounds like something i experienced not from psychodelis but regular prescription meds twice once when the dr made the dosage too high & again when accidently took the lower dose but meds that were past the use by date it could also be schitso & if bro is possibly then that may be worth checking into it doesnt sound lsd related unless you were way way overusing
I had risperdal before I threw it all away. Looked it up online, and it said you can take one, and if subjected to LSD, no trip will result. Why would I want that sick shit? It is schizoprenic medicine, I still got the bottle. I could be wrong, but I don't think your bro takes that for depression, check the label on the bottle.
hmm I havent taken LSD(2x this summer) or LSA(1) very much but I've done DXM 3 times this summer 1st time was 20pills w/ 12 dramine pills (benadrly), 2nd time was 40pills+salvia+weed, 3rd time 20 pills and some marijuana. I dont think I've done any other drugs this summer but then again im not good at remembering a long night of tripping and smoking very well.
Drugs are often marketed for an array of things, so I doubt your brother is trying to hide being schizophrenic. I used to have some relevant story to go along with posts like this about how some drug made originally for epileptics was marketed for a slew of other conditions. Maybe it killed a bunch of babies or maybe nothing happened; I don't remember, but my point is not to trust the pharmaceutical industry because drug companies basically bribe doctors into prescribing drugs by inviting them to a bunch of free "conferences" in lavish, exotic locations and by giving them free crap. The next time you visit a doctor, try to take note of his or her office's decor and see how many advertisements you can count.
You probably should mello off the drugs for a while, stressing over mental problems while doing mental drugs is not good.
well idk im just kinda worried if I keep doing "mental" drugs I might go schizo. I love tripping... its my favorite past time haha but I'll stop if I gotta. I'll definetely ask my bro but for some reason I doubt he is... he just doesnt seem very schizo... but its still odd to me thats hes taking a drug to treat schizophrenia.
yes from smoking weed a lot I always think my cell phone is ringing but it's not and also one of my friends moved to illnois and yesterday whenever I looked forward I thought he was sitting on the right of me but I look over and he's not there he's in illnois. it's just that I chilled with him everyday so im so used to him being there so I have flash backs lol
fuck so it turns out my bro is a schizo. my mom didnt tell me exactly and my bro wont tell me but its so obvious now... fuck... I would never have taken dramine if I knew this. ok so suggestions? I mean probably most of the damage is done if there is any but what should I avoid for now on? I know I wont be roboing or taking benadryl ever again and I doubt I'll be taking LSD but what about weed, alcohol, shrooms, ketamine, nitr. oxide, well an even better question would be what can I take now that I know there is a small history of schizophrenia in the family... anything slightly risky I wont do... I do not want to be schizophrenic... thats the last thing I want. Recently I've been doing fine... no audio hallucinations... and I doubt they were looking back cause I've been able to pick things out in reality that were causing these sounds but what about visual hallucinations. whenever im tired walls or objects will shake or I'll have things run acorss my vision but I figure there just floaters on my eyes.
If I were you I'd probably cut it down to alcohol, ketamine, and nitrous. I started to get some dodgy shit like you after heavily tripping last year and having some bad trips/flashbacks, and since then I've cut down/out of pretty much everything but ketamine and nitrous, and the occasional toke on a spliff if it's handed to me. Everything's a-ok when I stick to that regime, and my balance only really gets messed up when I start getting back into the habit of tripping, or when I take MDMA (which sometimes gives me some scary flashbacks). In your mind, you probably know which drugs are responsible for these unwanted effects, so just stop taking them, and stick to more comfortable drugs. As I say, ketamine and the occasional nitrous balloon are pretty much perfect for me, things might be different for you, so it'll have to be a case of trial and error until you find what works. Also, you say "the damage is probably done" - that's crazy talk. Your phsyical brain chemistry is probably just fine, it's just the psychological side that's a bit wonky at the moment. Mental scars heal just like physical ones, it just takes time. Don't worry yourself over the thought that these effects will never go away, because given time, they probably will, just be more cautious in the future - you're obviously not crazy, or even schizo, but your mind has given you a warning, it's up to you to act on that to prevent things like this - and worse - from happening in the future.
so no... dare I say.. no marijuana thats so sad haha but I'll definetely take your advice and just try things out. I've never had issues w/ weed, nitrous, alcohol, and ketamine before so I think they may be safe but I think drugs to avoid for me are most pharmaceuticals and crazy mental psychedelics like acid in general and well I could go on w/ other "mind fuck" drugs but I think everyone knows where im going w/ this. yah man well thanks for the reply! its nice to hear im not the only one who has gotten slightly "fucked" if thats the right word for habitually tripping... if you dont mind I'll probably keep in touch w/ you over the forums if I have any more questions.
Long term marijuana use is often associated with psychosis. I've never been a regular user so I don't speak from experience, but I've heard a lot of first hand stories (and not just on Internet forums ). I think you're right about avoiding headfuck drugs. If a drug gives you a headfuck, you should either steer clear of it entirely, or if you HAVE to take it, make sure you do it VERY occasionally. No matter how many times I tell myself I should never take acid again, the urge always comes eventually. I've had breaks of almost half a year between acid trips, and judging by my last trip, I think another half year break may be in order
Man, I'm in a situation like you, except I've only just become very interested in the psychedelics. I've never tried anything, but really wanna try acid or shrooms. I have 2 schizo unlces though, but could one or two trips fuck me up? Its a big risk. Would small doses be safe just to see how i react?
idk if schizophrenia is a big thing like that in your family Id watch out sometimes people who dont know there backgrounds or minds well take acid and just totally lose it.
look if your brother is schizo then you have a very high probability compared to anyone else (except one: if your identical twin was schizo). so be careful. dont take drugs if it makes you feel bad about your situation in life
drugs have never made me depressed I mean somtimes on the come down I'll regret something small... but then I smoke another bowl so im finee . This last saturday I decided to give my mind a test. I took 2 hits of acid, downed just less then an 1/8th of shrooms, smoked an 1/8th of weed and I had 1 pill of x so I rolled that. Now I cant honestly remember saturday night very well other then I remember I got trapped into one of the songs (interesting feeling, to bad it was a doom metal song... scary butttt wow... it was an amazing feeling.) and my room sorta warped and the ground under neither me was going up and down to the music sorta like those computer music visualizer things. Also I remember feeling like I was inside out and I was examining my body... but it wasnt to bad. But I feel fine... I did fine in school today and I havent had any relpase. Any comments? should I still be worried about what I use? .. for some reason I think my confident attitude and social behaviors may put me out of the possible schizo risk. I think maybe the dxm got to me when I made this post :/.
Its that benadryl man dont fuck with that stuff anymore. Your fine, take all the drugs you want to just not deleriants. Just smoke a lot of weed and relax and it'll probably go away. Its probably all in your head. Diphen sux
but man that stuff is fun I doubt I'll do it again (even tho its so hard not to do it maybe one more time) but wow... its probably one of the craziest trips I've ever taken part in...
if i were you id steer clear of dissociates like pcp, dxm and ketamine. and deleriants. those are the ones that make you feel crazy..
