still tripping randomly?

Mabye fact for you.

 

right now i can if i choose to see many colors and patterns in my visual. i can see everything clearly and my vision is better than 20/20. if i pay attention i can see colors and patterns but if i don't think of it i don't notice. odds are what you are seeing was there before you took the lsd you just never noticed until now. i wouldn't let it get to you or you will make it worse - stop looking at the strange visuals and go about your life as you normally would - i assure you that the visuals will not disturb you - i seriously doubt that they are so intense that they are distracting you, it is more likely that you are seeing these things because you are looking. LSD opens you up in ways that you were not open before and if anything this visual thing is a blessing in disguise. if you learn to work with it you should be able to see peoples energy fields - objects also have energy fields - that is what you are seeing and when you realize that what you have done is actually discovered a new found ability, all of a sudden this visual thing is not so bad.

as for your memory, i have had hundreds of trips and my memory is better than anyone i know. i found that a good memory comes with being in the moment. if you are not all there at any given moment than of course your memory will suffer as well. are you loosing memory of stuff that happened before you tripped or are you noticing some short term memory loss? anyways, the memory thing is your own doing not because of the LSD. - you might have done something on your trip that has gotten you thinking about stuff all differently or maybe you are obsessing over things clouding your mind so your memory doesn't work so well.

whatever it is you are doing it to yourself or you are noticing something that was always there you just never noticed until now. if i was to guess i would say that you are just over thinking about lots of stuff and your memory is suffering because you are taking up valuable thought process with obsessing over things thanx to your new found insight. it will pass - or you will get used to it or learn to work with it - whatever the problem is you can fix it. LSD does not have any long lasting negative effects unless the user believes that it does. hppd is a term used by doctors who really have no idea what they are talking about.

ya do it to yourself ya do

 

very good point!

 

wtf.....im not insane
im far from that

it usualy doesnt happen if im occupied and not thinking about it.

the acid was on sugar cubes do you think theirs a chance there could have been more then 4 hits on it cuz i assume a suger cube could hold a lot of acid? but if it was more then 4 hits wouldnt it have lasted longer then 12 hours of visuals?

 

i wanna clearify
im not suffering at all....
the memory thing is mainly short term memory....ive always had a bad memory but it got significantly worse after acid. there was a few months where i smoked weed almost every day....and i barely remember it...i remember faces and stuff thats important too me perfectly but i dont remember unimportant stuff or historical facts and numbers well.
the visuals are just a little annoying
the mentals it gave me are amazing
im 10 times happier of a person after acid
and i dont have any anxiety problems and it gave me the confidence too tell the couple of my freands who were dicks and bad people to fuck off...id probably still be freands with them if i hadnt tripped and might even have turned out like them.
i was never realy depressed but im happier now and hav a lot more freands and am alot more open to people about my feeling and alot more closed to "bad people" who i shouldnt be with anyways. i dont let anyone put me down anymore. and dont think of stuff as a problem cuz then it just turns into a bigger problem. i have a hard time seeing a point in school but thats how ive always been.
i hate being alone now but ive always liked a social atmosphere soo thats not realy a change.
im much more confident and girls seem too like me alot more after acid maybe cuz im more open...who knows
soo dont say dont take it....
i think unless you hav bad anxiety or hav a mental illness, that everyone should take a hit atleast once in there life or you will never realy know what life is, if you know what i mean....

 

I agree everyone should try a hallucinogen somewhere down the road. Anything to alter your reality for a brief period, anything to humble you and show you that your life isn't the only way to live it. That's valuable. And it's good that LSD improved your life. Just don't start thinking that drugs are the *only* way to do that. As for your visual perception cues, it's because of the LSD, and some consider it 'brain damage'. It's common with LSD. It probably won't go away... it might in a year or two. But what you have isn't so bad. Some people who get trip echoes have them where really bad parts of the trip come back, and this can be terrible over and over.

As for the sugar cube, and acid in general, yeah he could've put more than 4 tabs in it. He could've put 1 tab in, and it could've been really potent. He could've put in 100 tabs of weak shit (exaggeratting obviously). The point is you never know with acid. Nowadays you can't trust the quality.

 

rygoody where did you read about that thing you said earlier....
about the synapses in the brain and how acid affects them?

if you could give me a link, i would really like to read about that.

 

the thing about the effect on the synapses is specifically from this documentary http://www.mininova.org/tor/512044

i honestly don't remember where I read the stuff about the metabolizing and rate of it's process through the body, but if I find it again I'll post it

 

LSD should be taken to cause change in your mind and personality and for understanding ect. Were did everyone get the idea that lsd is a party drug and should be taken as a pass time....Dam kidiots, sadly I'm one too =(

There is not a little portion of your brain with a bunch of words floating around in it. Words literally are synaptic knots, synaptic functions in your brain. Words physically and very literally wire your brain up. That is how your brain stores words, in synaptic connections.

The word OCD is not stored in some little bank of words in your brain. Your brain does not operate in words, words are an abstract description of synaptic functions. Speaking, writing, art is all just an abstract synaptic function. The word OCD is quite literally stored in your brain by creating a synaptic function of OCD. The word is synapses, words are literally and physically synaptic functions. Bad words make bad synaptic functions.

This is quite literally what was considerd a 'magick spell' or curse hundreds of years ago. People were so hypersensitive and open minded to all functions of the world that they could go around with their 'magick words' say them to people and quite literally, the person would hear it and it'd cause a synaptic change in the brain if they took the words in. If the word, if the metaphor was powerful enough it could cause remarkable changes if the person recieved it properly.

 

do most objects have a yellow energy field?

 

The only problem I've ever had dealing with LSD is the fact that people when they sell it to you lie about it. Oh yeah, I tripped balls. Oh yeah? I got a little headache. But anyway, I know what your talken about, flashbacks. I believe one guy here said it pretty well, I never regret doing acid. I've only had one really crazy flashback. For the visionary deja vus that trigger what you were feelings or thinking while you were tripping doesn't happen to much to me. I know if you smoke a grip of marijuana the same visuals can be reproduced if you stare at a certain point in space and let your eyes relax your eyes will pick up certain patterns in that vision so your brain can alter them. (differnt colors, shapes, etc.) Ok, little off point. My flashback experience.

So, i don't know if you people know of Tool? hahah but I saw them a tripped mad on mushrooms. This was my first real trip and it was friken fantastic. I saw this band that opened for them, Isis, I was so deep within myself seeing them, it was totally a differnt world (no other way to explain it). Keep in mind I have done acid once up to this point and it wasn't even a lot(my hands were tingly, thats all) I tripped acid for the first real time 6 months before my flashback occured. So, ISIS. Isis coms to town and I go see them. I wasn't even tripping when I saw this show, just really stoned. I go into the show and after the first band that opened for isis (Zozobra) I started getting a very peculiar sensation throughout my body. eventually the heads and the bodies in front of me started blending together in a uniform color. Above their heads was white and all the people were black. Somehow I was able to take that white light and impliment that in the black. Eventually I was blinded by a serious white light. I shook it off a.s.a.p. But it was no good, I let my body submit to this unnatural force. My vision was white, nothing else. During this 1 minute time I could not think, could not compute anything. The thought that lingered in my head was is this real? Or, where am I. Its a very strange situation that I hope I never go through again (doubt it ) Another thought that went through my head was I was hoping for someone to help me through this. I started swaying and eventually I hit someone in front of me and then it took about 5 minutes for me to completely regain my sanity. After Zozobra finished I went to the bathroom and my friends were like "dude, what are you trippen?"

It took me a good year to analyse this whole event. My conclusion is that seeing Isis so blitzed as I was, going to see them again brought those same feelings and emotions out of me.

Getting back to the subject, I think flashbacks are awesome. The DEA thinks flashbacks are very detrimental to people who do hallucinogens, I think differnt. I believe there are those that have the ability to do these certain drugs and those who should just stay sober. The only way to find out is to do it at least once.

To come really to the point, tripping randomly? I've done my fair share, lets go trip or something. I think LSD or even mushrooms should be used in a productive enviroment other than just lets get drunk and eat some mushrooms. These drugs should be used positively, so tripping randomly? No thanks.

 

my explanation of "tripping randomly" isnt what youre thinking.
its not like im having a full on acid trip at random times like your described flashback...not at all
it is just very mild visuals when i focus on stuff or stare at a black board, etc. and there more intense the more i think about it and the "harder" i stare or "space out". but there never soo intense that i would even consider it a trip or flashback more of just a mild visual illusion or that anyone else would notice that im seeing it.
im not like tripping ballz its just lik very mild if u know what i mean
not harsh enough that like it would stop me from being able to do a task unless its reading words on a computer but thats when im realy "zoned out" and its usualy more mild
hard to explain cuz you cant take a picture to capture what i occasionly "randomly' see.

P.S i didnt take it at a party..and i did use it positively.
i took it mostly outside in nature staring at the moon...it was a full moon that night and watching the clouds swirl in the moons glow as the outlines of everything beamed off colors. my freand said i was staring at the moon for a good 2 hours with my face in all awe the entire time. and then as i was walking (this girl held my hand the whole time soo i could walk and gave me a hug whenever i got scarred and i think that helped the trip alot) there were these 3 big dogs someone was walking and i thought they were santas raindeer and i just wanted to pet them but my freand didnt let me. and then i saw this brick wall and it changed into a mirrored surface with stripes going down it that i could see my reflection in, but with colors on my outline and i petted the wall and it was soft. and thats when my trip started to turn "cristmas related" and the clouds started spinning and then turned into snowmen and they "danced" and then once it was curfue we went in the car driving fast listening too loud techno music, while i played with the smoke from a ciggerat...i didnt even smoke it..i dont like ciggeretts....i just wanted to play with the smoke cuz it looked soooooooooo cool....one of the coolest things ive ever seen as it just swirled in the air in colors as my fingers gently cut through it....hard to describe but....simply amazing!!!
the trip was 100 times more then i ever even imagined acid being. i thought it would just be a fun night but it was soooooo much more then that.
after acid i felt like i didnt need weed to have fun and that tripping or taking a roll once in a while would be much more fun then smoking a bowl everyday....not saying weeds not fun but in excess it can be kinda bad, starts to turn into a neccesety and something you need to hav fun, rather then an accesory of the night if u know what i mean it sorta loses its specialness if overused.

 

What the fuck are you implying?? What are you a scientologist? So you're saying that I only have OCD because I believe I do...Which actually most of the time I don't. I believe I am schizophrenic, ACTUALLY have aids (despite many negative tests) and that my somethings horrible will happen to someone I love if I don't do some ritual. I've always doubted the fact that I have OCD, but my therapist insists that I do...Maybe Im not following your theory that well

 

its really funny, i didn't even know that my eyes/mind were doing this until i was really toked up today and looked at a table and realized that the way i look at certain objects now if i stare to hard is totally reminiscent of acid. not so much the actual object but the negative space around it. Everything gets a little fuzzy and it almost seems as if I'm observing the space from or in another spacial dimension...if that makes ANY sense at all.

does anyone else consider this sort of thing to be "acid visuals," other than breathing patterns or fractals and enhanced colors and lights? because i have never considered such a sensation to be visual, i've always thought of it as more mental or how I am thinking, rather then what I am actually seeing. which, has led me to believe that I don't get much visual stuff on acid except for a little 'breathing' here and there.

It's weird how difficult describing senses and sensations and what we think of them and how we process them in our mind. Certain things about other peoples experience, like acid trips, and synesthesia, or what life must be like for people missing multiple senses, we will never fully comprehend.

 

When on L, I see faces and sets of eyes everywhere and in everything! Now, if i stair at certain things I can see the same thing in them while not on L.

 

Depends on their mood

I am joking, but there is something in that joke. It depends on their temperature, material, are they conducting electricity, are they wet.....

Yes there is a slight yellowish coat around them, but the other layers around that yellow one are describing the object more. For example, if you check your stove when it is completely cold, and after somebody cooked something on it. There is difference in energy field. I don't know if you played with crystals, but if you didn't, find few, they don't even need to be expencive, the cheepest ones. Than when you are tripping, put them on the table in front of you. You will notice first that yellow coat around it, but you will see also the other different layers and they are different for every crystal. I told you to take crystals, because it is the easiest to see those energy fields on them, beside living things. Once you notice that while you are tripping, you will be able to see them even sober after that.

 

whatishappening you can't really argue with these guys because they are on lsd forums for a reason: it's their life. you are saying that the drug that they love is bad and they will have trouble even considering that.

 

no man i know a kid who went off the deep end. whenever he tries to talk, its just fragmented sentences or metaphors for metaphors for metaphors for metaphors with no actual point or direction.. he's falsely predicted the end of the world several times, and he is SURE that the energy inhabiting the kid that lives in with his family is beating and raping him in his sleep. and whats worse is his parents just pretend nothing is wrong. they'll talk about how weird he's been behaving when he's not around, but its been more than a year now and he's just getting worse and worse...

the kid CAN NOT function in society and he makes everyone he talks to nervous. i cant stand being around him without getting all shakey and anxious.

he would've gone crazy eventually anyway, but one night everything lined up for him (a low dose of LSD quite possibly triggered it), and after that night he was a completely different person. he was intelectual and friendly, and now he's paranoid and withdrawn.

i dont mean to scare anyone, but this is the shit that CAN happen if you're just tripping to see colors. im willing to bet that my friends case is a reletively rare one, but it happens. know YOUR body and mind.

 

so the whole time you were telling this kid he was insane. why? just because you think you're insane, so you need to come on here and tell people that they're fucked up just so you feel better because you're fucked up?

and for the kid that went nuts on acid that you knew jack. maybe he should get a fucking hold of himself. im sorry, but acid does not make you crazy. it's a fucking drug. he made himself that way and only he can fix it.
