I was up for not more than 3/4 days doing glass, I had to work 60' up in the air the next day so even if i wasn't that tired yet I decided to pop 3mgs of ativan. About half hour later i started allucinating; but not the usual bugs, people calling/following you that I imagined in the past. I was seeing funny shit, people looking hilarious,things deforming etc. to the point that i spent most of the night laughing and I couldn't stop, the next day my abs were hurting like the day after a particularly funny acid trip. No paranoia whatsoever but pretty serious visual allucinations nevertheless.I started wondering if somebody had dosed me 'cause I never had anything like this happen before. But it's out of the question.I got the glass from my usual guy and the ativan was from a prescription .The only difference is that normally when coming down from a binge i take boring pills like valium, it was the first time that i had used ativan for that purpose.By the way I never got to sleep but the next day i was feeling pretty good. Has this happened to anybody else or.... am I losing my mind?
 
Lack of sleep and Meth combined with a benzos is mostly likely a good cause for hallucinations (w/ an h...). Staying up for a period of time in tself can cause one to hallucinate, then throwing the meth and ativan into the mix. Simple, your mind and body were tired, and the ativan just warped you mind to some degree-pretty coomon for a meth binge.....

I have had allucinations from staying up too long doing meth/coke many times, but they always involve paranoia; this time it was pleasant and funny didn't feel like ...everybody is after me, bugs crawling or any of that nasty shit.
 
I've gotten some strange visual hallucinations from Ativan before. It made everything seem a little trippy, like really weak acid mixed with xanax.
I don't know if this is normal, I took a pretty large dose.

We're all here because we're not all there.
 
usually when im tweekin i take ativan when i come down to help sleep...like ive been binging off glass off and on, and i take 2.5 to 3mg to sleep at nite...work, no hallucinations..but when i wake up in the morning, im totally lost, dizzy, dont wanna wake up, when i get up to take a piss i walk all wobbly and balance on the wall, ect..is that normal..anyhow...ive still got around 60mg of ativan (old RX i jacked from my grandma) and i never take no more than 4mg at a time....one time, i took 5mg, and snorted another mg...i was incapicated the entire day, i just leid in bed, and sleep zoned out..

Because i like to do lots of fuckin drugs and get fucked up ok!
 
I think it was just the Meth and the lack of sleep, mostly the lack of sleep. Your mind can mess with you all by itself if you do not sleep.
However, I get mad visuals all the time from Meth. I see things fly by me and weird shapes and animals. Also, if I drive or ride down the interstate the lights turn into rides like the fair or circus and once I saw a carosel (or however you spell it). It is quite fun. It doesn't always happen, mostly on or around the end of the second day, but I have gotten them right off the bat. So, I wouldn't worry too much.
