Hello everyone I'm brand new to the forum its nice to meeteveryone . I'm 24 and I've been tripping for about 3 years now on a pretty consistent basis. I've always thoroughly enjoyed the experiences I've had on LSD and I've always taking something good out of every one trip that I've taken. A very important fact to note about myself is that my family has a history of manic depression. My father was manic, before he passed away, and 3 of his brothers were recently diagnosed with it. About a week and a half ago I tripped with my brother at a concert and we had an incredible time. We left the concert and I continued to have a great time in fact it was the best trip I think I've ever had. I woke up in the morning and I didn't feel like myself, now this is typical for me to feel different in the morning for me but I've always felt great, I felt a bit depressed but really didn't think much of it. Over the course of the week the depression started to get a little more intense each day. Thoughts that were alien to me seemed to be running rampant in my mind, and I started to feel out of control of my self. I can't tell if I'm still being affected by my trip a week and a half later? So my question is do you think I should see a doctor if it continues to get worse? I've already decided to stop using LSD (at least for a good while) to see if my mood increases. Thanks for your input.
with your family history of mental illness it might be a good idea, but I'd give it some more time. make sure you're eating healthy and getting lots of exercise though, it'll help with your mood. ps. welcome to the forums
He'll stick you on SSRIs/antipsychotics . . . you can try good diet, exercise, being outside, being with people, doing what brings meaning to your life, reading, sex, whatever.
I have had steady girls with DEPRESSION. all Drs. seems to suggest that meditation is very good for depressed people(not that they care about meditation) ,because it oxigenates the brain, besides exercises . Depressed people have a tendency to go too much into the mind, too much thinking, meditation makes them feel good, with no thinking, gives their head a rest. A bit like turning off the TV set, or internet.
