When i was around 15 I got a hold of an eighth of shrooms and I was a complete moron and took them all by myself at my house and made no plans for the day (please hold off on the scolding I am quite aware of how stupid that is thank you very much).
To be brief, I basically felt the worst I have ever felt in my life, worse then when I found out my mom was a heroin addict or when my parents got divorced, worse than ANYTHING I have EVER felt.
Luckily I was able to call my brother and he came over and took care of me and I slowly came out of it and was ok afterward, but still for a solid hour I was curled up in the corner of my living room wanting to die.
Fast forward to now, about 4 years later.
I didn't have any bad feelings or depression at all after the trip, but now, external forces seem to sort of "turn on" that spiraling terror I felt on that day. It's getting to the point where it's almost debilitating and making daily life much more stressful. I don't necessarily start tripping out or anything, I mean I feel a slight alteration of consciousness, but mainly it's just this frightening anxiety sort of feeling. It isn't quite as bad as it was on the day of the trauma, but it's still pretty bad.
So I'm wondering if this is still considered a sort of "flashback" because I don't have any visual distortions or anything, I just start feeling a lesser degree of that terror I described above.
Any responses would be much appreciated.
