Man this shit is bad buzz.

I tripped out on mescaline brew on saturday with some friends. It was average strength, not very intense but some good closed and open eyed visuals. I didnt sleep at all till sunday around 5pm, we took the brew at 10:30pm-11:30pm on saturday.

Anyway, i had a headache all sunday afternoon and just drank heaps every time i woke up till 10am monday(17hrs sleep).

So, i felt fine(no headache) monday, tuesday, and today(wednesday). I didnt notice any visual distortions or anything.

I get home just about an hour ago and literally as soon as i walked inside, i get this wierd visual distortion.. like, a blind spot-ring. Its hard to explain so i attached a picture, but basically, half my vision(my left half) has got a odd shaped ring around it which consists of trip-type visuals(red blue green flickering).

I cant read the word directly to the left of the next as the ring cuts through that area. Its pretty intense and it seems to be getting bigger as time goes on.

I have a headache which is very focused on the top right hand side of my head, which also came on about the same time the visuals.

Anyone know what i should do? I seriously cant live with this shit.

I came on this thread ready to rain on your parade by telling you that HPPD lasts a long ass time if not permanent, but this?

This is much worse than any HPPD i have heard of. I would go to a doctor man, but i don't know if there will be anything you can do about it besides wait. (unless i am wrong and this is just a very bad case of HPPD, but i really don't think so.)

I would try standing close to a wall and tracing the part of the wall that you can't see. Then periodically look at what you traced from the same exact spot/distance from the wall every time. Then you will know if it's actually getting worse.

Ophthalmic Migraine perhaps?

Thank you! Oh man thats such a relief. The headache has reduced and the visuals have too. Still noticable but yeah. I wonder why i would get a migraine the second i step inside my house? :\
*shrugs* anyways...
 
had my first mescaline trip on sunday; the strain on my eyes was very uncomfortable and is lasting days and am having some difficulties focusing.

It was like my eyes didn't know what to focus on and all the muscles in my eyes were getting cramped (even when I closed them). definitely doing a much lower dose next time as I don't know how to avoid this from happening in the future (and my eyes are something I really don't want to fuck with. (on the plus side I did see some amazing visuals, but others be warned, not so sure it's worth it, if you are to go through the same thing!)
 
wow, moonyham. when I saw your drawing I was like: Jesus, these must be those "fortification spectra" I only read about in biopsychology.....polidelaiko had the same idea obviously... ;)
really interesting...

did you experience this before? (I def. hope you don't experience it again as it's an indicator for a migraine attack not just a simple headache...)
 
OP: I get migraine attacks about twice a year and its exactly like you describe it.

Dehydration seems to trigger it for me, so I always drink lots of water :)

You know i didnt think i had, but i remember a few months/half a year ago, i had a blindspot(similar to this, but alot smaller) to the left hand side of my vision.

I think im going to get an MRI soon, my brain has had a focused brain-ache(top right) for quite a while now(since i crashed a motorbike) and generally doesnt ache/hurt unless im doing something strenuous(running, tripping out, holding breath, dehydration). I thought it was healing but i dont think it is. Grr.... brain damage ftl.
 
Yes, optical migraines ... I get them several times a year (no pain, but I have a far-away feeling for some time afterwards). The first time I had one I got really worried, like I was having a stroke or something... took a while before I discovered what they were.
 
Seen it

I have had this experience....it was not really like I thought I was dying...maybe having a mini stroke....

I had been working in the yard, smoking...getting really sweatty, summer hot as hell and humid...I also later remembered that I had pulled up and broke off lots of Moon flower (datura) plants that were in the back yard....

[any possibility your brew had ...add mixtures...?]

I went to the ER...as it kept on for over an hour.....ER was a waste of time..

After that day I always handled datura with rubber gloves....I believe you could definately trip by rubbing a broken stem on your sweaty skin...

So, no one really knows all the possibilities of alkaloids in these 'clones' that are being ingested...lots of possibilites..

No it was just (organic)cacti, no additives(seeds, chemicals etc). Just plain old water and san pedro.

But yeah i definitly wont be doing mescaline for a while.. a bit too.. strenuous.. ive never been a fan of stimulants so i think ill just stick to mushies and maybe try some ayahuasca in the near future.

As a side note though. My cacti aged for aprox 2 months in the dark(under my bed). It went a bit soft and darker. I only had maybe.. 40 or so cm of cacti, and it was quite thin.. like maybe 3-5cm wide. Me and 2 friends made a brew and we had pretty average/intense trip which i was quite surprised by considering that amount of cacti would normally be only 1 trip worth.

Ive heard that aging cacti does make them stronger and i firmly believe this to be the case now. Maybe certain alkaloids are created exponentially more so than others when they age? ie; Stimulate ones as i was definitly very very amped compared to the visuals i was getting, when comparing to other trips where cacti hasnt aged.
