The last time i was tripping, i became everything i touched... i touched things and it was like they were a part of me, everything was a part of me. I ended up having a really good night tripping, a bit scary at times but an amazing night. I took the lsd at about 10 oclock on the night. i ended up sleeping for a while at about 7 in the morning, but when i woke up i started freaking out and not being able to handle it and nobody could touch me, i couldnt touch anything, my sensations were reallly reallly intense and scary, everything was really intense and scary. Since that trip, which was 3weeks ago i havnt been the same.. i still get that very frightening sensation but only slightly, its really weird. my last trip has really fucked with me. i cant even smoke spliffs now becuz everytime i have just even one spliff everything gets really intense and i feel as if im outta my body, i really cant explain the feeling.. the problem is its not very fun. i cant control it and its pretty scary. has this ever happened to anyone??
damn dude....how much did u take? i had a pretty bad experience with dxm - been scared of doing drugs ever since then... i had such a bad trip on it, i called ppl crying and saying "no more drugs EVER!" about a few weeks later, i got some lsd (and i was scared as hell of doing it), dropped it, got over it its just a matter of conquering your fear man, once u get over it, u just feel kind of dumb for ever being so freaked out
That feeling won't go away until you embrace it. You are a part of everything. Your conflict stems from you denying that and thinking that it's just "something trippy" that happens on LSD and that it's supposed to go away when you are sober again. Also, after dropping LSD all drugs will be more intense. This is due to what some say is your "doors of perception" having been opened. I'm afraid there may not be a way to take this feeling away, and you should embrace it and enjoy how intense everything is. It's always been this intense, you just didn't know because you had been filtering so much of it out. I wondered for a few minutes if you might be experiencing HPPD, but there are some important things that make such a conclussion simply incorrect. For one, it's only been 3 weeks. This is normal. If you are still having clearly altered sensory feedback in 6 months, HPPD is a consideration, but not until then. Second, HPPD is only visual. I imagine that it could simply be translated to auditory and tactile hallucinations, but what you describe is an overall increase in the intensity of all significant stimulae, including other drug effects, which is very characteristic of post-LSD effects and is no cause for worry. Like I said, enjoy it. If you wanna think about it another way: There is nothing anyone can do to help you, and there is no medicine to make it go away. None. Doctors have nothing to offer you. So your choice is: Be overwhelmed by it and stricken with fear and tension, or simply accept it and move on, hoping that it becomes easier to live with in time (it will). Go for a few walks and learn how to experience sensations again
what Mr. Writer said. Smoking pot after a really intense trip is always a bit more wild then usual... if its bothering you that much then just lay off the weed for a little while, or alternately just do what i did and smoke small amounts everyday so you get used to it. embrace it and everything will be sweet! :cheers2:
As usual, outstanding post from Mr. Writer. Some people recovery quickly from trips. Others need time to "come down" or integrate what happened. You will be ok. I would be much more worried if you were paranoid about people, yourself, the supernatural, etc. Just take a break from smoking weed, relax, and accept what is going on. I'm actually tripping out just thinking about what you're experiencing Don't fear yourself or your mind or experiences, and just relax. Relaxing is the key. What you are experiencing is totally normal after an intense trip, and if you just chill for a while, it will either go away or you won't even notice it anymore. You're just in a mindfuck, and mindfucks take time to go away. The less you freak out about it, the sooner it will go away. Right now you are probably thinking about the mindfuck every few minutes, or every hour. If you chill out, in a few days you will experience a stretch of several hours where you don't notice the mindfuck. This will be encouraging to you. In a few more days or weeks, you will go through a whole day or almost a whole day without thinking about it. Sometime around this experience you will realize that it will go away if you let it go away, and then you won't be scared anymore, and you'll be fine Edit: I meant to say a couple more things... you probably just didn't get enough sleep the night after your trip, so you were still tripping a little bit the next day, and then you felt like you would never get back to normal. It often takes a really good night's sleep before you feel normal again after a trip. Also, it's perfectly normal for weed to be extra-intense following a trip. Hence my advice to take a break from weed.
well put, i have gone through the same troubles about a month ago and this advice is the best you can get, i thought i would never come out of it and fail school, ect. but if you just accept it and put your mind on other things, you will get better and appreciate life that much more
Thanks everyone. i feel like ive opened another door into my mind, it was pretty scary but now im getting used to it, sometimes it does get really intense though.. just need to relax.
dude. Go sit out by your favorite tree and commune with it. Trees are awesome when you can feel them in that way.
Its so hard to explain what the feeling is like... its intense and weird. but i suppose i will get used to it, i feel more connected to everything, i feel more connected to my inner self if you understand me, everything looks more beautiful in the world. I dont know... i have moments where its really intense. my whole self feels different. kinda in a good way... thanks for your comments
yeah..a lot of people feel that way after tripping...i have before. dont let it consume you. lay off the weed. get used to your new self. youll be fine.
You keep describing these beautiful changes in you, followed by basically "im so scared" lol . If it's all positive, why be scared? It's overwhelming, I know, but don't be scared of being overwhelmed. Love is also overwhelming. Seeing your first lunar or solar eclipse is overwhelming. Do not associate level of sensory input/importance with fear. Bill, that is the DSM diagnosis according to wiki. Weird, I know. Specifically visual. But that's dsm for ya.
