Hey guys,

Pay attention to my username in case you are rolling your eyes thinking this is sooo normal...haha

I recently had 2g of base (my 4th time doing it) and this time things were slightly different to my previous experience.

Over a course of 2.5 days i was dabbling a bit at a time approximately every 2 hrs...and as previous times, id get the nice rush, speediness, euphoria and of course staying awake. I was awake for two nights. Now, besides the usual floaters and tiny specks or dashes of tiny astral lights i see...this time i saw disney characters and loony toons on my wall in front of me, almost like a projector was on it and watching a mini cartoon on my wall. It was like i was watching a mini cartoon show, the characters were moving so fast and they kept changing doing tiny little actions, it was all the original all time favourite characters, after blinking and freaking out and getting closer to my wall, i could still see it. The clarity is what scared me, the colours of the characters, the details of the hair and even the clarity of Donald Duck's beak left me shaking. I have never EVER in my previous experiences with base had visual hallucinations with such clarity. Could this have been a sleep deprived hallucination or an amphetamine hallucination?

I also want to add that these 4 occasions of base have been over the last 4 months and was my very first drug experience...hence my username.

Your experience is most likely a mixture of both sleep deprivation and amphetamine use. Pretty normal nothing to worry about. Get some sleep, stop using, eat healthy, take vitamins and you will be fine.

EDIT; Oh and drink plenty fluids.
 
You want to stop doing your stimulant Before you get to this stage, as the one after will be full blown Real thoughts, sounds and images i.e. Psycosis. Your body just needs some sleep, it happens to everyone that stays on stimulants for days, even just a couple of hours to ground your brain will do.
 
Yup, welcome to the fun-filled world of amphetamine psychosis, a condition that closely mimics full-blown schizophrenia, probable cause a combination of sleep deprivation and amphetamine's effects on brain chemistry putting the balance of neurotransmitters out of whack. High levels of dopamine I think are often posited as the cause of psychotic symptoms, of which amphetamines are a strong releaser. Not sleeping for days on end can cause hallucinations in its own right. Do shorter runs to avoid it next time.
 
Lower doses next time methinks =D

Lol, yeah, that too! ;) Most UK base is pretty poor stuff IME, 2g's not an enormous dose of the below-average stuff I've tended to come across in recent years. Properly good base though 2g's a fair old amount for someone new to it to be doing, even over a coupla days. Enough to have you pretty damn wired and no mistake!
 
Lol, 2g in that time frame is a huge dose if its anywhere near decent quality. I use like half a gram of crystal over that time frame and am very sufficiently fooked. Dont feel bad, I also underestimated dosages and would do a full g over that time and the visuals and audio and weird thoughts where almost near yours, and frankly i enjoy it immensely.
 
Thank you all for your replies.

It is a massive relief to hear that it was somewhat normal due to what I had and what i did. I cannot say i enjoyed reading the word psychosis and the high dosage BUT I am glad in one way because that will be it for me. My experience started in 2012 and ended in 2012 haha.

I got plenty of sleep last night, ate well and feel fine. However, i know for a fact my general mental state is not 100% as in i feel slightly down etc which i expect for a few days.
 
you will feel off for a good week mate do not worry its all normal just get vitamins into you and plenty of rest just dont linger on it in a bad way look at as ha ha silly me what was i thinking doh if you get what i mean :) .
