Do you understand the difference between taking LSD and seeing a hallucination of a skull, and literally dying?
so much talk about these skulls here, those arent the only visuals i see it was just an example. Death to me is leaving my body and not returning and i go somewhere else in the afterlife. i dont get where this is going you guys keep asking me questions like what is death to you which is pretty obvious since people on this earth DO in fact die.
ride it out---even with the most trippy bad stuff --u r learning---if you make it through the demons astral planes-yull come out stronger and wiser---that is if u dont go insane--i know this is a cheat but i only wanted good trips myself so i'd kill any bad trips with a bottle o'Jack---thats a cheat--but fuck demons--i didnt have time for their nonsense--and they were terrifying so double plus ungood that shit
yea the lower astral planes are terrifying, its as if they control my thoughts and guide them to think im going to hell or dieing. Its so hard to control these thoughts when im tripping hard and it seems as if the higher the dose the easier it is to slip into this stream of thinking. i completely understand that these thoughts are my own but even though they are my own i cant control them at all because of the way everything around me is sychronized and my exposure to it forces these thoughts in my head because all the visuals are communicating with me. its as if i feel and KNOW what my visuals are communicating because they are attached to me. My friends who i have known for years and years just turn into robot like people who have no personality and it feels as if another person is talking to me through them. My question is why are my visuals scaring me they used to never scare me and i could get out of a bad situation fast when i first started doing acid. Now its like a completely different trip.
because dude, if your deathly afraid of death, maybe your experience with lsd is bringing that out. straight up stop tripping if you dont like it anymore...
yea but it would be really hard for me to stop after seeing all the shit i have seen its a part of reality that i never ever would have imagined existed until i took lsd its fascinating
look man the choice is really, really simple. do you want to keep being afraid of death, or do you want to be ok with death? if you want to keep being afraid, just do what you're doing right now, including this thread, which will NOT help you. If you want to be ok with death, then next time you trip, do it with some fire in your belly. confront some shit! you give the impression of wilting away effortlessly at the first sign of anything remotely related to darkness or death in your trip. If you can dig Yin, don't you think it's about time that you should dip your toes in Yang? That's why your trips are moving in this direction, because you have a complete deficit in your being, you are utterly imbalanced onto one aspect of existence, and have simply awful preconceptions and thought-errors about the other aspect. The water's black, dive in. What's the worst that will happen? Not you dying, because that's not possible on LSD, right? So what are you so afraid of? no pain, no gain. this is it, right here, this moment is where you decide whether to put down tripping for the rest of your life and make threads like Peter Popper and forever tell everyone "acid fucked me up guy", or you actually take that first honest plunge into truly unknown territory and emerge something far wiser. its all on you. edit: look at the skull in my sig. Look at my sig. think about it. what is going on there. what is going on when YOU are there. what is the "you" that is terrified when the visual representation on the right side of the screen appears to you, and why is it different from the visual representation on any other part of the screen. silly mind! it's just playing favorites.
Ive left my body before. The curse isn't that you stay out of it. The curse is that you ALWAYS come back to it. You leave the body, you come back into the body, it's a cycle that is as real as the earth spinning. Something that really helped me get over my fear of leaving the body was engrossing myself in astral projection culture for a bit of time and their meditations and techniques. For people who are adept at astral projection, leaving the body for extended periods of time is a normal part of their life for them and completely comfortable. Theyve developed alot of interesting views about out of body exploration, you might find some value in it if you fear leaving your body.
after reading this thread ivei gained a great respect for mr.writer i've always answered my own questions while tripping to save myself from a bad one but i dont consider myself as wise as i perceive mr.writer
