    Blind folks who take acid have visuals. Like our closed eye visuals, but more intense.

    If i was blind, i would either do drugs until i died or stick a gun down my throat

    seriously, if it was the case where I lost my vision, i wouldnt want to live anymore

    also, me and my buddies always say that if we ever become a parapalegic etc. Just roll us out to a cabin or the woods, and have an IV drip of heroin or acid, and see where it goes from there

    An odl friend of mine is deaf.. he use to trip with me. he told me he "visioned things" he couldnt really explain it. But, it sounded to me like he was seeing crazy close eyed visuals. To understand you'd have to know how acid effects your mind. If you've taken it, you should know why they would get an affect.

    I've always said if I lost my legs, arms ect. Lost my sight, hearing, I'd kill myself or take out a public figure, or something else crazy. But, I'd love to have liek 10 IV's pumping all kinds of shit into me.

    that'd be cool only on my death bed. after i was already on some kind of drugs, of course. you'd need to give me something by mouth to put any kind of needles in me.

    If you were blind from birth you wouldnt know what anything looks like, but you could still trip on acid. Acid is not all about the visuals, when a person looses their sight their other senses eg hearing, smelling are enhanced, so a blind person who took acid may experience the most amazing aural hallucinations, it would be a totaly different experience. Also I do believe people blind from birth to experience some visual activity when they are dreaming at night. Interesting stuff.

    Their "visuals" tend to be from other senses such as feeling and are vague.
    For instancea blind man, with his finger draws a circle in the sand. he then understands the concept of a circle. their "visuals are metaphoric in nature.

    this visual reference seems to be metaphoric in nature, employing a frequently used conceptual metaphor in which "knowing" or "experiencing" is "seeing" (Matlock, 1988; Matlock & Sweetser, 1989; Sweetser, 1990).

    It depends what you mean by blind. A person blind at birth cannot see in their dreams, it is possible they see metaphoricaly as described above.
    A person who went blind at the age of five can see coulors and stuff in their dreams as they remember what they look like.

    A lot of people in the deaf community feel like hearing people are the freaks. I knew one family that was a deaf mom and deaf dad and a hearing baby. They decided to only teach their son ASL rather than getting him speech classes because ASL is part of their culture. Being blind and deaf is no different than being "normal", especially if you have been that way since birth. They adapt.

    You guys are ignorant, if you were born blind, you would not wanna fucking kill yourself, youwould be fucking greatful for how much life you have now. I would wayy rather be blind than def. People who use any type of hallucinogens get closed and open eye visuals. All of their other sense are so much more intense.
