W.O.W.

ever since i was addicted to coke, i treated every drug the same. snorted oxys way too fast, snorted MDMA way too fast, drank patron way too fast, and acid was no different. i started by taking one, then ten minutes later my second. then said fuck it, i'll eat two more, and then finished the last one. my husband (then fiance at the time) and i had gotten 10 with the intention of us only eating 2 each and selling the remaining 6 to friends. not only did we fuck our friends over but i personally think i experienced ego death.

first cube, didn't feel much, which initiated eating a second. we were just sitting on our apartment floor listening to music. the second cube, things got reallll wobbly and spinny 10 minutes later. but that wasn't good enough for me. then i ate two more expecting to go to disney land. and i did. my then fiance got in the car and we drove (i don't remember where) but everything was pop up balloon like figures. inflated houses, like those jumpy houses you play in as a kid. colors were vibrant, it felt like i was on a rollercoaster. we were only going 35mph but the outside world sped up so fast it felt like we were going 60.

when we got back, with only two cubes left we both said fuck it and ate our last one. at this point my fiance wasn't tripping nearly as hard as i was and he was waving his hand infront of my face and i was seeing double, triple his fingers. i remember we left our phone charger in the car, and i kept saying WAIT WAIT, and getting all dolled up and putting my make up on like i was going to a restaurant or something, and 20 minutes later being like, what the fuck did i do this for? were going to the fucking car? and just bursting out laughing at the idocrisy of not realizing i was just going out to the car at 2 in the morning to get a car charger and come back in.

then things got BAD. i blacked out numerous times, woke up to the room spinning a grey color as if i was in purgatory. i was seeing 10-15 ghosts of myself kneeled over, throwing up, crying and flying all around me. the room was dark and grey when the lights were on, but everytime i looked at my fiance it stopped. but if i looked away it went right back to the same thing again. i saw myself how everyone else saw me, skin and bones, sickly, pale, constantly throwing up all the time from my stomach problems. it was a rude awakening. but like i said everytime i looked at my fiance it stopped. it was like everything was okay aslong as i just kept looking at him.

then i blacked out a few times, laid down on the floor on my back. my fiance kept asking me to get on the couch but i couldn't respond until he asked me why wasn't i getting on the couch? all icould say is what? i dont know? what do you mean get on the couch? fuck. fuck. i don't remember you saying that. he said i was saying this girls name 'miranda' over and over again. i don't know anyone named miranda, or anyone in my family named miranda. but that creeped me the fucked out when he told me that.

the next morning i woke up still tripping but as if i had only eaten two hits. everything was still wobbly and i was like fuuuuck. but oh well it's not so bad today. the scary part of the entire trip was knowing the next day that my fiance wasn't tripping nearly as hard as i was, and i thought he was on my level. i thought he was seeing everything i was seeing and he wasn't. the fact that i was completely alone in my own trip scared me even the next day.

but the next day (like most people experience), everything was really emotional for me. i appreciated songs more, i appreciated life more, my levels were reset. my anxiety went away, my depression went away. and it stayed like that for two to three days.

all in all i think i really lost myself that night and discovered a person entirely new, cause that was the last drug i've done. i've been sober since because it made me think, why the fuck am i doing this? i had no desire to trip again, and i suddenly hated being on my prescribed medication for my disorder. drugs and medication and even weed repulsed me. i really needed a trip like this as a wake up call. but if i didn't have my fiance there i don't know what would have happened

damn i need a cigarette after that

Getting all ready to go to your car at two in the morning to get something...I can relate to being high like that.

I totally canNOT relate to lobbing five hits down my throat. That is some gusto.

I'm fascinated that you haven't used anything since. I don't think you mentioned when the trip was though, so how long has it been ?
 
Your first hardcore LSD trip is something you take with you for the rest of your life(for the most part). I was young, and took 5 hits of clean blotter on the beach with my older experienced brother.......the beatles "within you without you" during the first part of the peak was life changing.

i just replied to another thread that was about "5 hits of lsd" but it seems to have been deleted? anyway one time i dosed a 5 strip of lsd that i would say felt something like 100u per blotter and it was one hell of a night. complete ego death, i was laying in fetal position on the floor for most of it. one of the most difficult, most rewarding, most euphoric, most painful, experiences i've ever had. i did it about 4 years ago and the changes it made to me are still with me to this day. in other words i think it changed me permanently but it was in a good way. having said that, the ego death experience was very difficult. once i got a grip on the anxiety and calmed myself down i felt the greatest sadness that i can remember ever feeling. because i felt like i was losing everything, all my loved ones, all those beautiful memories of me and my wife, were being destroyed and taken from me. after that i was left with nothing, i was stripped down from everything that made me who i was, everything good and everything bad. but at the time i only felt all the good things being stripped away and i was sad because i thought the memories were going to be gone forever, i was scared because i didn't know where it was taking me. it took me to the infinite, i was nothing individually because i was a part of everything. i was able to rebuild myself after that and came back a better person, it felt like i was able to rebuild my personality how i wanted and leave my negative traits behind. there were feelings and thoughts i experienced during that trip that put me on a quest to learn. i did a lot of reading for the next couple years, i had a strong interest in a lot of things i had experienced. the trip was insanely visual, but the feelings and experience was so strong i didn't get to appreciate the visuals, if that makes any sense. anyway ego death, to me, feels like literal death. in my case i was flying through a vortex and my body was breaking apart into fractals. i was watching pieces of me (body parts but also memories and traits) being ripped off me and flying off and disintegrating. i could actually feel the memories leaving my brain, no longer accessible, bad memories/good memories, everything that made me who i was. i went through a wild range of emotions depending on the memories that were being taken from me. at the end, i had nothing left but tons of sadness and loneliness. then when i came to grips with what had happened, i became ok with it, after i became ok with it i looked and saw infinite. the vortex had flattened out into a universe or something like that except without stars/planets/galaxies, it was infinite. i could feel it, i could feel "infinite" and i was a part of it. there was nothing special about me but i felt happy to be a part of this "thing". eventually i began to rebuild myself as an individual, i guess i was piecing my ego back together. it was a very intense experience and i wouldn't trade it for anything. but it was very difficult and i don't know if i have the balls to do it again, at least no time soon unless i felt i needed it.
 
Moderation is a word that cannot be stressed enough. Especially when it comes to psychedelics.

I agree, I guess. But from what I've read using psychedelics in moderation doesn't seem to take you to that place (ego death or whatever you want to call it), which sound like the most rewarding experiences, even though they can be scary. I've never experienced anything too intense as I've only ever been moderate with LSD. But I'm beginning to think that to take the full potential of the drug with you into the rest of your life you need to push the boat out and maybe not be so moderate with dosing anymore.

I could be wrong. But in my LSD use I've never had this sort of experience where it has effected me so greatly afterwards, but I really want to :D

You may want to push the envelope & over do it a tad but you are also taking a shot at possibly screwing your mind up forever. It doesnt happen often but there are those few that over do it & end up in an asylum.
