Orange Sunshine
I am 55, I was a long haired hippie from 1969 to 1974 and did massive amounts of drugs, everyday of my high school I was stoned, I did manage to get into the Univ of Mich still. I did all kinds of LSD, mescaline and peyote (my favorite), the strongest acid I ever did was orange sunshine, it was 4 way acid, there were four hits in it. About five of us took half a hit around 8 pm in my senior year of high school on a Thrus night, seniors had the next day off. About 9 pm I decided I wasn't feeling it enough and ate the other half, big mistake. We all went to my friend's familly airplane hanger at the Pontiac, Michigan airpost, they owned a small freight airline. I started hallucinating really bad, they said I was turning green, I had them take me home, they told me I should stay with them, but I went into my house and went upstairs to my bedroom. I started getting way too high so I left the house around 11 pm, my Mom heard me leave, but at that time I basically came and went as I pleased. it was winter, snow on the ground, I lived in a subdivision that bordered woods, so I went into the woods, I thought I heard sirens, thought the police were after me so I ran. When I got further into the woods I remember seeing these wooden blocks floating in the air with pictures on them, it turns out these were the blocks I played with in my crib, the lsd brought out that memory which I still have to this day. I also was seeing all sorts of things floating in the air, I saw no reality, just 100% hallucinations, I thought I was going to lose my mind so I kept saying my name to myself, saying I am "my name" over and over, then I remember looking straight up into the air and seeing this beam of light come out of the sky and hit me in the eyes, and I got the message that this was God, which is strange because I didn't and still don't believe in the traditional god, I have a high IQ, when I was four I thought the bible was absurd, that adults were believing this book wrtten 2000 yrs ago by people who thought the earth was flat. Anyway that was my last memory, the next thing I knew I came back to consciousness, it was 7 am, and I had moved about 100 ft from where I saw that light, I don't know how, but I was in the middle of a swamp, it wasn't cold enough for it to have frozen over yet, it was the middle of December in Michigan, the suburbs of Detroit, and I was in a crouched position. I then remembered that when I came into the woods and I was running because I thought I heard sirens, I fell into the snow and lost my winter jacket and my eye glasses. I pulled my feet out of the muck, losing one shoe, winter shoe/boot, in the muck, it was sucked into the muck, there was no way I was in any condition to bend down and try to get it out, I was wet, cold and freezing. So I went to try and find my jacket and glasses, no luck, so I walked to the major road, two lane speed limit 45mph, which my high school was on, and so was where I worked after school, an automatic car wash, all I did was take the dollar and push a button, so I hitchhiked up there and got there before the morning shift, I got a pair of rubber boots and some old jacket in the back room and waited for my shift to start at 3:30 pm, the guys from the morning shift were friends, two yrs older and out of school. It took a couple of days for me to stop seeing trails and get my head back to normal. That was the only time I had a bad experience, I had a lot of fun doing peyote a few times, we would get a button for a dollar, all pills were a dollar, unless you bought quanity. I would do peyote way before acid, and you can go to the Church of Peyote in Arizona and do it legally. Look them up on the internet.
