Thanks, it's all good, and I know how you feel, we are in a vicious cycle, well most of modern society. It's just as hard as it is easy to escape it. In this cycle there is no time for journey, new experiences. We'd like to think about a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow we're searching for. That there is a destination at the end of our journey, but from what I gather it seems like the journey never stops it is the only destination we know of, and maybe the only glorious destination of our dreams is the eternal dreamland in the after life. I rode in to town today and in my heart I said "Lord I'd love to stay" But somethin' in me said "Boy move along" Don't know what it is The good Lord bred it in my bones. And I'm searchin' for a rainbow And if the wind only shows me where to go You'll be waitin' at the end, and I'll know I'll say "To Hell with that pot of gold" This mare I'm ridin', yeah, she's gettin' kind of tired But in my heart she knows my one desire She's gonna take me to the end of that road, She lay down and die, I'll say "God rest here soul!"

It's always crazy how whilst during a bad trip, there's nothing you would want more than to leave it, but then afterwards, you realize that the trip wasn't bad at all. Sometimes we all need to get punched in the face, just wish it didn't have to hurt so fucking much lol!
Your welcome man and to answer your first post iam happy that the new perspective was found... Wow that was phenomenal to listen to while i was searching the web...Thank you lol....If anyone here lives near a train station or a populated urban area listen to some enigma while walking through, its hilarious with a taste of pure brilliance.
I think the main problem actually came from you worrying that you couldn't go to sleep loll. my first trip thats what screwed me over was the thought that i wouldn't be able to sleep! Better luck next time. btw dont rely on drugs so much to help you sleep, try drinking tea. also try drawing or watching television. nickelodean is pretty peaceful lol or so i thought!
Doesn't seem like such a bad trip. I loved the part when you were talking about the rusty pipes, spider visuals, and dirty floors in your story, it reminds me of how my visuals sometimes changed when the vibes got a bit negative amongst one of my last group trips, things seemed like that and sort of 'stagnant' at the same time. But yeah as for it occuring, I don't know, these things happen in trips. Just gotta relax and let them roll out once it starts. Deep slow even breaths may help relax your heart beat, which can also sometimes chill out anxiety for some people. GL
Wiggley, yeah I had a feeling that was a major influence on my negativity. I didn't completely rely on drugs, I actually fell asleep very fast after I relaxed playing some blues on my guitar. However, Valerian isn't a drug, it's an herb, and is just as legitimate for healthy relaxation. Sorry Nickelodeon turned on you too! Thanks for the advice Swoosh. This could have been me being bitten in my existential ass for abusing a sacrament.
Yeah mon, here's a cool Enigma remix in case you missed... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGy...B8570D3F&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=46 Some other various semi-related favorites that come to mind... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-r4Yc7UW2xk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfgdjfgtJw4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDnIxxWXB-E (Duniya is probably my favorite come down album of all time, especially the long ambient piece The Third Chamber pt. 4)
