So over the course of the last 1.5 years ive tripped about 20+ times on LSD compounding in well over 100+hits. Mushrooms about 10 times. DMT about 10 times. 4-ACO-DMT about 5 times. 2C-I 3 times. Countless MDMA uses its say over 30. And ive been having a bit of personality trouble.

Before about 3 months ago i had alot of self confidence, always knew what to say in any situation, was great with expressing my self, and always really energetic, and motivational.

Then i got in a little trouble with the law, and ever sence then ive been having problems expressing exactly whats on my mind, weather it be in words or in other forms. Its kind like like tip of the tounge syndrome. Also my confidence level has been rather low. Its like i lost who i was before i got in trouble. My energy level has also been terrible. I have no drive on anything unless ingest in terrible amounts of caffeine.

Its almost like permanet Ego-Loss. Think this could be from tripping too much? Has this ever happened to anyone, and will it go away?
 
If it happened following trouble with the law, as you said, why not look to that as a cause? Prolonged use of psychedelics can certainly make one feel disconnected, but I often note that people tend to attribute natural changes in their life to the psychedelics in fright. They're naturally afraid that they've damaged themselves. It couldn't hurt to take it easy for a while, but I can say my encounter with the law left a lasting impression. I would have anxiety attacks whenever spoken to sternly, and I felt incredibly self conscious in crowded environments. The justice system has a way of making you feel that way.

Just my two cents.

In my experience, over extended periods of time with frequent psychedelic use you begin to detach from old habits and routines which were the identifying elements of your personality.. this isn't necessarily always bad as it can provide the pathway needed to redefine yourself as an individual, but if your not ready to make these changes it can be very difficult.

I'd take a break for a long while, and see where it goes from there.

Take care. :)
 
depersonalization, stay away from all psychs and drugs if you can for like a year and you should be back to normal. You basically gotta rebuild your entire personality.
 
The Law, causing PTSD since the dawn of order and control. I'd say that you basically opened yourself up with all the tripping, and then had the unfortunate run in with the law, which has imprinted upon you a negative state. Or something like that...I'd stay away from heavy trips for a little bit, do a lot of out-doorsie (Schumann Resonance FTW!) stuff. It really does help to center and ground you to be out in Nature. Also, make sure you hang out with people, have a few drinks to relax and get the words flowing out of your mouth again, and get back into the old groove of being who you were before all that. I wouldn't say you have to give anything up forever, but give yourself time to heal up. It's almost no different than pulling a hamstring or some other muscle, you gotta give yourself some time and some rehabilitative efforts to relax back into yourself. You of course now know more of the way your self can be shaped and molded, and the possibility of other modes of being has been shown to you. Most of the time we don't take notice unless we're being kicked in the crotch by life...so, try not to look at this all as a negative. What you've really found out is that the potential to change who you are and how you experience yourself DOES INDEED EXIST. So, with that understood, feel free to be who you need to be. Good Luck, you'll be fine if you give yourself the chance.
 
^ this. psychedelics can really open people up, then when you see the disregard with which many, though not all, law enforcement treat other human beings, and become acutely aware of the shit end of the justice system, it can really have a lasting impact. By no means permanent though, unless you make it that way.

I've unfortunately had quite a bit of experience with law enforcement/justice system and sometimes an arrest and/or prosecution can leave one feeling quite out of sorts. I've had the feeling you mention a number of times before and fortunately (or unfortunately depending on how you look at it, ;) ) the feeling tends to have a shorter duration the more times you get arrested. I believe in more gangsa-ish drug cultures the feeling you describe is referred to as "shook"

and I would think that this is probably more related to your trouble with the law than your drug use, but like has been said before, it never hurts to take a break.

Thanks for the advise guys. Ive been planning a 6-8 month break on all psychedelics for the winter. Ive been smoking Medical marijuana 1-3 times a day, i dont think that will stall my healing.
 
you would be surprised at how much anxiety marijuanna can induce....

Stopping smoking weed was the best thing I have ever done for my anxieties. I used to smoke a quarter of dro every 2 or 3 days too... Was a huge pot head.

One day, I just realized how dumb it was to spend so much money on weed. When I stopped smoking weed within a few days I noticed myself with drastically less anxiety about everything. Now I find myself going out to the club and meeting people on a regular basis. Where as before I would just sit at my house watching movies by myself due to crippling anxiety.

I do however smoke synthetic cannabinoids, but not very often anymore. Used to smoke like a gram of JWH-018 in 2 weeks, now I smoke maybe 100mg a week MAX, probably a lot less than that.... They dont seem to cause the anxiety as much for me.
