Hi everyone. A week ago me n my girl to x (1 mint each) and my friend took acid (1 strip or 1 dose i think). I also had another friend who was 17 who didnt take anything. Just tagged along because he wanted to smoke.

So were taking a long cruise on the high way smoking blunts, trippin out, just having a good time listening to music. I hop off the highway and ended up in downtown. After 30 minutes of getting lost, driving around, checking out the views, my friend starts spazzing out. Literally couldnt control himself. He starts yelling "DUDE I HAVE TO PEE SO FUCKIN BADDD UGHHHH" making these painful sounds like someone was poking his stomach while he had to pee like he really couldnt hold it apparently. Everyone in the car was like dude relax the gas station is right around the corner. He starts yelling again "OH MY GOD THIS GUY WANTS ME TO PEE ON HIS FUCKING HEAD" my girla like who? and he was like "THIS FUCKIN GUY" pointing at me. And im like wtf... And just as he said that i pulled up to the gas station. Man oh man did he piss me the fuck off. He straight up killed my rolls.

I could.t believe my own boy from like 3rd grade had just spoke to me in that tone of manner. Even the 17 year old was like dude wtfs wrong with him. Me n my girl came to conclusion that he was having a bad trip or something. But he serioisly acted like that without warning. Next thing u know hes walking out of the gas station with the most evilest look on his face. He gets the in the car looks at everybody like a demon had just taken over his body and then snap! He just starts smiling... And says woah. Im like are u fuckin kidding me.... No sorry no thank you after how u just talked to me u just smile and act like u have no clue what happened? Man my roll was officially gone after that. So i leave and the only thing i had on my mind was drop this bitch ass dude off for talking to me like that, acting like that, and for killing my roll. i shouldnt even have taken that roll if i knew this shit was gonna happen. So i drop him off cuz he freaked us all out and he hits me up like an hour later talking about whyd you guys leave so fast.

Like do u not know what u just did motherfucker? That was the first time he ever disrespected me. On top of that in front of my own girl. But im like man handle this like a man and talk to him about it later. So whatever 4 or 5 days go by and he had been hitting me up everyday and I couldn't stop thinking about how he was acting so I just didn't respond... I just ignored him. Then I get a text on the 5th or 6th day saying yo lowkey I heard u was talking shit about that day this n that. He told me he got up with a couple of his boys and they were making fun of him or some shit saying he can't handle acid. And I'm not the type to talk shit but when someone asks me what I did last night I'll tell em. So I told one of my other guys how I felt about the whole situation and what had happened so he goes and chills with my boy who took the acid and brought up that night. So automatically my boy (who I've known for years and years) thinks I'm talking shit and shoots me that text. I'm like wtf is wrong with u... Where the fuck is that coming from? I'm not the type that talks shit. I speaks d trooth! I'm like aight look I'm busy right now I'll come thru later and we'll talk man to man because obviously you heard something.

I get up with him later that night and remember, this is almost a week after he took that shit. He gets in the car and I'm lighting up a blunt I'm like alright dude start talking what's going on what's wrong with u. What did I say about u. He starts telling me how his guys we're like trying to make fun of him but he wasn't letting it slide and that he was talking shit back and that he was getting close to beating their asses. And the whole time I'm thinking why the fuck are u getting so hostile bro. I've never seen this side of you before. But I didn't say it I was just listening. I told him look bro I don't give a fuck what you heard or who you heard it from because I'm the closest friend you got. Why would u think I was talking shit... So he kind of just dropped it and started talking about how he thinks we're losing trust. I didn't understand. He was going through so many emotions the past week but yesterday topped it off.

Here's where he drew the line. This all happened yesterday:

(Yesterday)
After that night, a day or two goes by and I wake up early. The guy who was with us that night (the 17 year old) hits me up and says yo let's chill I didn't go to school today. I'm like fuck it I start heading that way and my guy who took the acid hits me up randomly at the same time. He's like yo me n my friend wanna match you down? I'm like shit me n my friend down to match too. And by the way, this little guy that was with us that night, we knew him for the longest time. Like this was the kid who would watch us grow up and see us doing cool things and wanted to be just like us.

So I pick them both up and we we're waiting on my boys friend some Mexican dude that was like 25. The guy was dragging so we stopped at McDonalds real quick. On the way to McDonalds, a cop got behind me and started following me at least a mile and a half down the road all the way to the McDonalds parking lot. Like the cop pulled into McDonalds with me and waited at the entrance to see what I was doing I Parked up, hopped out with my 2 boys and went inside while the cop was just staring at us. So we go inside and I'm just talking you know? Not giving a fuck who hears my conversation and I start saying yo u think we can call the cops on that cop if he's still there for following us? Lol seriously. I was just talking you know? My guy who took acid was like "dude can u stop talking about that shit it's getting really fucking annoying" .... I'm like wtf here he goes again with his rude self. He's never talked to me that way, never acted that way, idk.

I'm telling you his moodswings are un fuckin believable. I looked at him and he wasn't looking at me he just looked pissed for no reason seriously. I was about to say something but I just said I'm gonna go use the bathroom. I needed to get up and do something because he keeps stepping on that line and almost crosses it you know? I get back n he said his boy is waiting at his crib but I wasn't paying him no attention I was just talking to my lil buddy. So I'm like let's go then. We get in the car and he says can u turn on the heat and I'm like say it sorry. He's like what? I'm like say ur sorry for talking to me like that in McDonalds. He's like talking to u how? I'm like for saying stop talking about that shit it's getting really fuckin annoying you don't talk to me like that dude I don't appreciate that shit. He's like dude you we're talking about the cops right in front of people I'm like I don't give a fuck you don't talk to me like that I never disrespect you so why do you think u can disrespect me. I'm not turning the heat on until u say sorry.

He's like you want me to say sorry because of that... I'm like yea wtf don't talk to me like I'm some bitch dude I don't fuckin talk to u like that. So he's like w.e and I just kept driving and eventually turned the heat on. On the way to his house i stopped at the 17 year olds house real quick so he could grab some bud to match. As hes grabbin it im waiting in the car with my boy and out of no where hes just like dude im gonna slap the fuck out of him. He keeps talking shit about that night. Im like dude wtf are you talking about... This guy never said shit about that night. like he was getting pissed out of nowhere since we left mcdonalds. Just like the acid night when he said the piss on my head shit. So im like dont fuckin do nothing dude hes 17 and i kept trying to tell him he never said shit your trippin. So my other boy comes back and he hops in and right away i felt thia energy in the air that ive never felt before. I look in my rear view and i see my guy staring at the back of the 17 years olds head with the most evilest look ive ever seen. Same look he gave all of us the night he took acid and came back from the bathroom.

I just knew something was wrong. so i didnt say nothing yet cuz i was still piecing things togethere. We pull up to his house and the mexican guy was already there and he had 2 40 oz beers on him so my boy who took the acid drank 1 and the Mexican dude drank one. As he's drinking he started acting up out of nowhere just like the first night but this time he wasn't saying much he just kept shaking his head like he was fuckin pissed and he kept saying so fuckin stupid so fuckin stupid so fuckin stupid looking at my lil guy who was sitting up front. the 17 year old turned around and was like what? Cuz he heard him saying that and just wanted to see what he was talking about. And my guy in the back was just saying something I'm not sure and was just like seriously dude I'll fuckin slap you. Don't play with me. I'm like ain't nobody playing with u bro what's wrong with u. And he's like this fuckin guy pointing at my boy up front like he was doing with me that one night. He's like he keeps talking shit and smacks him in the back of the neck from behind and said that's strike 1. And that's when I gave him the evil look too saying "julez don't fuckin do it. He's a kid.

He was never talking shit dude your tripping." Even the Mexican guy was like relax nigga wtf are you talkin bout he ain't say nothing to u.. But he just kept shaking his head looking at him like he was about to attack. But my guy upfront got spooked like why did he just hit me and there was silence after I told Julez don't fuckin do it I'm not playing. And then I was like I'm just gonna drop him off dog your on bullshit and I'm not gonna have u hitting this little ass kid. And right away he's like no wtf nothings gonna happen I'm not gonna do shit calm down. I'm like I don't give a fuck u just hit him I'm dropping him off. And he looked at me like alright I'm not gonna do shit and just shutted up. Then there was another silence and I looked back and now my guy was tearing saying my bad to me and the Mexican dude but not to my boy sitting up front who just got smacked in the back of the neck. And then he stopped crying and got pissed again staring at the back of his head from behind him and then he kept shaking his head and smacking his hands together like he was gonna do something. And then he crossed the line...

im looking straight out the window and out of nowhere boom he smacks my guy sitting up front in his face hard as fuck from behind no warning. Then boom another one then he starts swinging off him from the backseat. I jump on top of him and I told my guy "run! Get the fuck out of here!" He opens the door starts walking a little doesn't know where to go cuz he's in shock he just got swung on and he had no clue why and I couldn't hold my boy long enough so he hopped out too and starts walking over to him I jump out grabbed my guy and he was trying to get crazy but I was just holding him telling him to stop and telling the other guy to run cuz my boy was Bouta eat this guy alive you should've seen his face.

So dude finally realizes wats going on and he just took off. I jump back in the car threw the 40s out and peeled off with my guy and his Mexican friend. Mexican dude was shocked as fuck like wtf u do that for u good bro? And I knew exactly what to do I answered for him I'm like yea he's good he just had to do what he had to do. (I was making him think I was on his side) and he's just like Yup that's right and started laughing obnoxiously. Acting like a straight up clown.

So I ride around for a but and made up a story about how I had to leave so I have to drop them off. I dropped them off and I haven't said a word to my boy since he did that. But he truly believed this kid was talking shit and didn't even confront or ask him if he was shit talking or anything. Before I dropped him off though he randomly dazed out and started crying again. I told him we'll talk later.

Is my guy still tripping? I feel like not being his friend anymore what do I do? No one deserves to get hit like that without warning so that's what's making me want to cut this guy off from my,life but idk if it's the acid still in him or what. I mean he never acted this way ever. And he even chilled the with the kid he hit numerous times like where the fuck did that come from? can anyone share some knowledge with me or give me advice on what to do because it seems to me like this guy didn't come down from his trip. When he first cried in the car after the first smack to the back of the neck and he apologized, he even admitted that he thinks he's having a bad trip. And then he snapped out of it back into the evil him. It's like a demon took him over! WTF DO I DO?!?!

Is this actually a friend or you? What drug was taken and how long ago? You're probably just freaking out a bit, keep your breathing slow and controlled and recognise that panic is not a useful state of mind and you'll be fine, kiddo.
 
Sorry guys i accidently pressed submit post before i got to typr anything. Im about to edit the first post please help me help my friend i dont know what to do!
 
You need to back the fuck out of this scene right away. Things like this can get way uglier then what you just described.

Disappear for like a month and don't answer your phone.

Stop doing drugs/ at least with these guys.

There's nothing you can do except get away from all of this.

If you stay involved you are going to get hurt or worse..

This is a bad situation. Sounds like you got a car? If you have a friend that's a good ways away and not involved, go chill with him for a couple weeks.
 
I edited this to make it easier to read. OK from what I gather, you guys tripped a week ago. Your friend is acting hostile and aggressively for no apparent reason. He's never been like this before? When you did the "acid" did he act strangely? Or it took days for this behavior to suddenly come on? Some people can't handle psychedelics, but being this was way after the trip it does seem odd. He needs to lay off the drugs. Cold cocking people out of the blue is not cool.

Did you talk to him about what happened during his trip? Perhaps he has some form of PTSD from it?

Either way, he's not in a good situation right now. Hitting people for no reason has ever ended well. Does he have any mental disorders that you know of? Does he do any other drugs/what has he done recently?
 
If it is as you say and your friend is acting aggressive and out of character without reason after the acid trip, then speak to him as a friend. Drop the hostility and ego trip business. Demanding an apology for his "tone" in front of others before you turn the heat on in your car is not going to help the situation - if he isn't in his right mind, this will just cause confusion and humiliation and make things worse. Use your head.

If your friend is acting out of sorts and you are genuinely concerned about his mental state, speak to him gently and with understanding. Assess the situation and perhaps speak to his family and friends, and try and get him to a doctor.

Although, there are two sides to every story. He may be acting out because he is embarrassed that you told people that he acted strangely while on acid. you should not have done this. He was then mocked by others. Did this 17 year old go around telling people that he was acting strange too? Maybe he is just pissed that you guys told others about how he behaved while intoxicated, and cannot express it appropriately? Perhaps he's seriously angry at you, and lashing out at the younger kid because he's intimidated by you? Or maybe the trip just did his head in a bit. Could be any number of things.

If your friend does something weird on a trip, it's not necessary to go and gossip about it. In fact, it's pretty rude, and I'd be pissed at you too. You shut him down when he confronted you about telling others, and you simply respond with "I speak the truth." Did you ever stop to think that you didn't need to divulge that information to others? It was unnecessary. You told them, they mocked him because of it, and now he's pissed off. I think you owe him an apology.

Anyway, sit down, talk to him, and LISTEN. Tell him that it's okay to tell you whatever is on his mind, and validate his concerns by paying attention, and not shooting them down as you did last time. You will then be able to judge whether he is in trouble, or whether you've just pissed him off. If its the latter, drop the pride and apologise, or risk losing a friend.

This... How old are you OP? You sound like a teenager. What else is going on in your life? Do you work or go to school? Do you live by yourself or with your parents? I spent most of my high school years doing drugs and drinking with people I thought were my friends but few really were. I did a lot of acid back then, and when I look back now I wish I had had more respect for it. It's not a recreational drug to just take lightly, so It's likely that your friend has some underlying issues and acid exacerbated them. I speak from experience when I say that the road you're heading down isn't a good one. It worries me that you seemingly don't mind doing drugs, driving and even getting followed by the police with a car load of others on drugs.

You may think you're above the law and that you're immune from anything bad happening now, but I can assure you nothing is further from the truth. While your friend was out of hand, talking about calling the cops on a cop in a public place would send anyone on acid into a bad trip. What do you think would've happened if your friend had freaked out and hit someone and the cops saw? You gotta realize there's consequences. You really don't want to end up in jail with your or your parent's car taken away. Although I know you probably won't I'd suggest distancing yourself from the people you hang out with, gaining some maturity, and working on other aspects of your life before messing with drugs anymore. If nothing more just stick with weed and DON'T DRIVE!!!

I think the doctors call it PTSD, haha. Initially set off by a bad trip I suppose. Unless maybe your friend is tripping a lot and you just don't know it, is that a possibility? Perhaps he just acts that way whenever he trips, which isn't out of the question because some people flip their lid on the stuff. I still wouldn't even deem that normal behavior though, just more explainable.
