I've taken acid five times, and the last trip my head felt particulary achy on one side of the brain. It was an overwhelming pain like I was thinking too hard (I THINK A LOT ON ACID, I over-analyze everything, even a conversation i just had with someone cuz i'm naturally over-analytical.) Since the trip, I still feel this ache like my head feels unbalanced and awkward. It's really uncomfortable and my neck hurts as well. Every once in a while my head will quiver a little. Should I get this checked out? I hope I wasn't close to getting a seizure or something and I have never had en epidemic seizure, nor do I have any family history or anything of the like.
dont know much about acid but drugs somtimes have aftershocks when used in big amounts or for a long period of time like me i took extacy continuously true out one week.when i stop for another week a hade wery weird like short dizzynes aftershocks but i was ok after about a week,so u shud be ok to in no time
If you think something is wrong you should go to a doctor, but I'm not sure that it's even possible it could have been because of the acid. And everyone thinks a lot on acid, its what it's for =)
i dont think you have anything to worry about cause i know what you mean, you only notice it when your environment is silent or near silent correct? and its like a little jump inside your skull but you can feel and hear it kinda right?im not sure what exactly is going on when that happens but i think it might be a different part of your brain pretty much jump starting really quickly so your brain almost lurches.
i regularly get funky body sensations... or rather I used to, I havent gotten a new one in a while but there was like a number of months were something we just feel abnormally different, one of them was pressure in the head. But I sort of attached it with the whole chakra energy system and letting energy flow through you. I don't know if it actually is that, but it worked... so ya
dont go see a doctor, you will be fine. if you can not relax this could last a long time. i had something similar and it lasted for a year. it is from stress and that is exactly what the doctor will tell you. sure the lsd has something to do with it but it is in your control. you must learn to relax. learn to meditate, and try a trip with less distractions and less talking, in a calm setting with only a few people you feel very close to. try meditating while on lsd. most of all RELAX. thinking too much is a disease and your head hurts so that you get the message. learn to calm your mind. learn to let go of thoughts through meditation and you will be fine. i would give the lsd a break for 1-3 months at least. learn how to get high through meditation and come back to lsd when the pain is gone and you feel like a more calm and relaxed person. we do not have to accept things like "i am over analytical" as something we are stuck with. the pain is telling you that something is wrong. if we were unable to heal what is wrong with us why would we even know that something is wrong?
Thanks for the advice. I have meditated a few times in my life, the first time was the only time it truly ever worked though, and I was high. I remember there being like a 20 minute period of pure bliss afterwards, almost like I was tripping. Do meditation and acid have parallels? When I say analytical, I mean I'm constantly conscious of how I appear in front of others. I can never let it go, and I always have this sickening feeling in my brain like I'm acting, or that multiple people are living inside of me and it drives me insane because I don't know how to be "myself" or what "myself" even is. And to the poster above about the quivers, yeah, typically when I'm alone and sitting on the computer it begins. Sometimes I get this sensation that I've changed since tripping (five times I've done it) like I'm a different person, or that I've gone insane.
It's very likely that what you are experiencing are mild seizures. I get them very often, during psychedelic trips, opiate highs, and sober, typically when Im in the process of falling asleep but sometimes during the day as well. I have not gone to a doctor, but I have had episodes being completley sober that scared the shit out of me. Full blown halllucinations both auditory and optical, and felt like I am being electrocuted as time stands still. Be careful, if it grows definitley go see a doctor. Im waiting to find if my own condition gets worse before I consider going, one more bad seizure like episode and Im definitley going. Good luck and good health friend, namaste
Yes, he does, and I do too, but it's not as simple as saying we do this to ourselves and if we just choose to stop it will go away. Everyone has to get over this at some point or another in their own way, and although most people usually get past it at a pretty young age, some people can't, but I do think that us acid eaters are on the right track to getting past or finding ways around the stuff in our minds that hold us back like that, if it's done positively and responsibly and knowledgeably. Not to say that it's the only answer, or even better than other options.
MDMA is the only thing that ever gave me brain zaps. And that was on the 2-3 day high dose crash. Talk about discomfort.
the only thing i can relate to their, is the first maybe 4-6 times i tripped. i had crazy headaches and sore neck to the end of the trip, so did my friends. my brain just felt so fried and so over-cocked. strange cause now days i dose higher and go harder and i get absolutly no headache, and no neckpane at all. zero. and my other friend who i just tripped with for the first time, complained of the headache and sore neck and feeling fried. so thats strange. my brain has passed it.
the only reason you "can't" is because you say you can't. all you have to do is believe that you can - the rest will happen naturally on its own. changing who we are is easy only if we believe that we CAN change. if you believe that you can't change you never will, which only gives strength to your belief that you can't change. you have to believe that you CAN change before a change is possible. if you wait for a change before you believe a change is possible you will never see change just like you are in a way asking or wishing for by believing that you can't change.
that is because most people cling to their ego the first few times. the more one trips the more they are able to let go and go with the trip/experience. headaches and any other body discomfort comes from fighting to hold onto your ego or from the stress of over thinking or from a fear of the unknown or tension from not being able to relax and enjoy your trip!
