Sorry the post is so long, I just wanted to share my experiences. Anyways...
It was friday night... just another party night in the dorms. I was just planning on getting drunk and high like usual, and i did. I drank about a bottle of wine and a couple shots of liquor, smoked a couple bowls, but then I got the opportunity of a lifetime. For the first time in my life, I had access to some acid. You know, LSD. Lysergic acid diethylamide. Cid. Strawberry fields. Of course I was nervous, I had heard about all the crazy things that can happen during a trip. I was especially scared of having a bad trip or a perma-trip. But then I said, what the hell, and took 2 hits. By this time I was already pretty drunk and fuckin high, and was feeling good. However, I didn't start tripping. I was like, wtf?, and after two hours I decided to take two more hits.
Immmediatly after I took those hits, I started tripping. It was pretty weak at first, all I really noticed was slight trails behind everything that moved. I looked at my hands for a while,
waving them around, watching the trails. Then we decided to listen to some trippy-ass music
and watch the visualizations on windows media player. We listened to everything; Pink Floyd, The Doors, the Grateful Dead, Radiohead, Mozart, everything. That was pretty sweet, the colors were kind of changing and they were right in my face, like 3d, but my trip had barely even begun.
My trip really really begun when I went to the bathroom. This was the first time I
was alone since taking the acid, and the bathroom was like a dark scary dungeon. I tried to take a shit, but I was way too scared, I don't know why. I got out of the stall and looked in the mirror. I was like a different person. I just stared at myself for 10 minutes. It's hard to explain, but my reflection was all wavy and disfigured, and that was reeally trippy.
I left the bathroom and came back to my room,but right when I got to the door, I just stopped and stared. I have a wooden door, and it looked like a waterfall. The grains of the wood were
moving slowly down the door, like some kind of crazy gel. I stared at that for like 5 minutes, then went back in my room.
We then watched Star Wars Episode III, and that was crazy trippy. All the special effects and lasers and shit were so trippy looking and I stayed interested in the movie the whole time even though I had no idea what was going on in the story. After the movie (which seemed like it took ten hours), I got my pet leopard gecko lizard, Mr. Mojo out of his tank and played with him. This was THE craziest part of my trip.
First, the lizard started melting in my hand. He turned into jello. A couple minutes later he turned solid again, but he wasn't the same. He looked like some cartoony shrek-dragon thing with a giant head and giant eyes. His head kept pulsating... It would be big, then small, then big, then small, etc.... Then all of his little black spots on his body turned into little eyes. Then all the eyes blinked at the same time, and wow. that was my sign that I needed to put him back before I go insane.
After I put Mr. Mojo away, I just layed in my bed in the dark, thinking. By this time, everyone else was asleep except me. I had all my thoughts to myelf.This is when the acid started fucking with my mind. Not only visual either. It started really fucking with my emotional state of mind.
It's so hard to explain but I'll try my best. I felt all my emotions
meld together... love,fear,hate,excitement,hapiness, they all melted
together into one. Same with my senses... I could taste every sound, feel
every sight, and hear every smell. It was insane. I felt like the
whole universe was just folding in on itself. I thought so much about
my life and how much it would be changed after the experience. I felt
so happy, like I was having a really long orgasm. I loved everyone,
everthing in the universe and felt like we all lived in harmony and
time would never end.
I was retarted though. I couldn't talk without fumbling my words, forgetting what i was talking about, and sounding like an insane person. I felt like I was just rambling on about nothing for hours.
I now know what it is like to be an insane person.
After a while, I started playing with my computer. Windows XP was awesome... the taskbar and all the blue stuff started shifting colors... pink, green, red, purple, everything. I went to the "Experimental" collection here on newgrounds, and watched some amazing trippy flashes. Then I played with photobooth on my roomate's mac, and that was awesome... I felt like I was in the computer. Then the trip started wearing off.
I didn't sleep that night. The trip lasted a total of 24 hours, from 11:00 PM Friday night to 11:00 PM Saturday night. It felt like an eternity.
Acid is a very, very powerful drug. I know what you kids are thinking, "I'm gonna go try some acid now". I do think everyone should experience a trip in their lifetime. It is an amazing, life-changing, insane experience. However, before you take this drug, please research it. It's impossible to know what it's going to feel like, but you should research and get as big of a glimpse of what it will feel like as possible. You want to be ready to have a good trip. If you're not ready, you'll have a bad trip, and trust me, it will scare the hell out of you. If you're tripping and you feel like you're starting to go crazy or get really scared, just think about good things. Play with toys. Stay with other people that you feel comfortable with in a place you feel comfortable.
Acid is insane. I'm not doing it again for a while. It was amazing, but it was emotionally, mentally, and physically exausting.
