To avoid confusion I just want to make it clear that I am using the pronoun "they" to refer to a singular person here as my friend identifies as gender-neutral.)
This friend recently experienced an overly intense trip on two hits of LSD at a music festival, they were looping intensely and not making any sense, repeating the same few phrases over and over again. The trip was somewhat aborted with large amounts of valium and after that they seemed ok if a little fried. As a result of this I was reluctant for them to take acid again, however I believe in letting people make their own decisions.
A few weeks later at a gathering we attended in the forest they took 15mg of 2CI and then a few hours into the trip they decided to take a hit of LSD as well, against my warning. They eventually started to trip even harder and loop more intensely than at the music festival. At the peak of this for around two hours they were unable to speak or comprehend anything that was going on, they looked like a frightened animal and kept repeatedly moving their hands in a strange fashion. After some comfort and reassurance they seemed almost sober and had definitely broken out of the loop. The last I saw of them they seemed happy and if a little spaced out, relatively back to baseline. I got a lift back from the gathering and went home. Two days later I received a message from their brother saying that they had been picked up wandering around the forest clearly in some distress talking nonsense to themselves. I'm mystified as they honestly seemed fine when I last saw them but clearly this was far from true. I can't imagine how horrible it was wandering around a forest in a delirious psychotic state for two days.
They are currently in the hospital and while they are still not making much sense they are apparently calming down significantly. They are currently receiving a psychiatric evaluation. I really really hope they're okay again Has anybody experience similar things? I know it's obviously hugely variable but what sort of time period can you expect for some sort of return to relative normality? Is it likely they will be given antipsychotics of any variety? I'm just very worried for my friend right now as i've never seen such an extreme reaction to such a low dose of LSD and 2ci, a psychedelic I personally consider to be somewhat light and fluffy. Obviously in combination for those with a low tolerance it's a different story. Apologies for the somewhat cluttered nature of this post.
