I think I might have already asked this before but I forget.
We were house sitting a rich people's place that had a heated pool in the fall. They also had a large Great Dane. We decided to take shrooms and enjoy the pool. The dog started howling. It became increasingly agitated and whining. It ended up hiding in the back of the yard behind some bushes. Anytime we tried to approach it it would lash out aggressively. Eventually it died. My friend and I had to load up a dead Great Dane into the back of his van take it to the emergency vet where they told us that the dog had a cyst in its lung that burst and it slowly drowned on land. The family came back while we were high on shrooms in the waiting room of the vet and proceeded to freak out. They tried to blame us but the vet insisted it was a health issue and not our fault. Worst trip ever. Always keep a sober friend with you, I don't know what we would have done otherwise.
Did LSD once
Got dizzy, sat down for a second, ended up passing out and seeing the world's greatest laser rock show
Woke up the next day, the guy who gave me the acid was like, you just sat there all night singing The Who and shit
Solid 7/10 experience
i was cuddling with this girl and her legs were so soft that i felt like i could feel her skin cells individually
we were both so blasted and joking about it. i was high for like 8 hours and whenever i closed my eyes it felt like the whole world was vibrating
It's a tie between two things.
One time was when I was on mushrooms and took a big hit of nitrous. I felt like I had left my body entirely and was in a black void of space. I looked up to see this giant pyramid the size of a building. It had thousands of doors which were constantly opening and closing while it rotated like a rubik's cube. My first and only thought was "This is a god" and my then atheist ass averted my eyes and bowed down.
The next time it was just shrooms and I got this vivid picture of a traditional alien but with traditional DMT esque colors. I felt the strange urge to move my body and I did a series of weird dance moves. I got the vague sense it was exploring the human form or teaching my the dance. It was pretty cool I guess.
Psychs are kinda like the internet for me. I don't really get life-changing advice or secrets of the universe but I do meet strange little fellas and have unique interactions.
i've never seen anything weird on hallucinogens but i used to hallucinate pretty frequently when i was an alcoholic (and chronic insomniac)
i remember once as a teen i had been up for a few days in a row and was drinking pretty heavily sometime in the early morning. went to open my bedroom door for something and saw an incredibly tall shadow person. nearly shit my heart out despite not being a believer in the paranormal.
had a way worse one when i was quitting drinking, so not technically on drugs but related I guess? somewhere in the endless haze of puking, shitting, sweating and vivid hallucinations i rolled over to see a little girl's face maybe two or three inches from mine, looking like something out of junji ito's worst nightmares, like some fucked up fusion of the kids from the grudge and the ring (neither of which i have ever seen). i don't remember much beyond that but it has stuck with me for almost 10 years now.
nearly shit my heart out despite not being a believer in the paranormal.
Funny thing happened a few months ago, in the dead of winter. We were in the countryside, at my relative's land. I couldn't sleep so I went out in the middle of the night to his pond. It was cold, entirely silent, dark except for the stars, and utterly beautiful. Well, as I walked around of course I couldn't see a thing in the dark. A strange thing happened - I got that old-fashioned fear of the dark like you used to get when you were a kid. I was seriously afraid something was going to jump out of the dark and rip me up. It was kind of cool, having this kind of feeling. Even though my logical mind knew exactly what was happening, that didn't make it any less real. I was genuinely irrationally afraid of the dark. The most primal fear that children have.
Of course, this being in the country and in Texas, I had a loaded pistol on my hip. It was great to walk around without fear in the dark despite all my feelings screaming otherwise. ;)
That's actually really interesting! I get that feeling pretty consistently and kind of assumed it was a universal paranoia, but apparently not.
I'm glad you got to have such a novel experience though. That sounds like a genuinely fascinating headspace to be able to inhabit, simultaneously feeling your basest human instincts begging you to run for your life but knowing there's literally nothing to be frightened of.
Thinking on it, that's probably what people get out of horror movies too.
I did mushrooms once to see if it would help with my depression (no, unfortunately) and what I think happened was I was looking at a rug and thought it looked like a duck. And the thought process was that the shapes and colors and patterns were all things you'd find on a duck, even though the rug as a whole had nothing obviously duck like about it. With no basis i think the shrooms kind of turned off or altered some parts of my brain's pattern recognition and had me seeing mundane things in a totally novel way. I don't recall any halucinations, just seeing day to day things with utter fascination as I saw things about them that i'd never seen before.
I did a series of ketamine treatments (also for depression, also failed sadly) and a steady dose of iv ketamine administered over an hour is pretty wild. The sense of timelessness and distance from your life at the height of the drug's effects is strange, I don't have a better word. I found it gave me a lot of space for introspection, like my life was an object I could look at and turn around and examine. I also brought music for a couple of sessions. "The Wall" pairs very well with ketamine, which is the least surprising thing ever.
One time I took an advil then I saw two planes hit the twin towers.
I watched the second tower get hit live on TV the exact moment I was doing a bong rip lmao
Very mild but the one time I smoked weed while on my meds I saw patterns and shapes on the wall, pretty neat.
Wow that's really weird. I've never seen one of those before. :bird-screm1:
Someone made me watch an episode of rick and Morty the first time I was on acid. It was fine but later in the night I closed my eyes and amongst the kaleidoscope of colors my brain started recognizing holographic Rick and Morty characters marching along amongst lotto ticket artwork and emojis. It was horrifying that I couldnt make it stop. Whenever I saw him Rick was say, I'm shiny Rick! A real shiny rick!
And I feel very E M O T I O N A L L Y B A L A N C E D .
Like calm and centered, or all the things all at once? Sometimes when I'm high I'll get like an intense wave of energy rising up through my body and if I'm not in a good mental place for it, PANIC ATTACK CITY Population: ME!

You're tapping into your ki and powering up.
I never have open eye hallucinations at all on anything. I must have the minimum rolled stat for that.
You either need a shit ton of LSD or Shrooms or you need dmt. Nothing else beyond that will get you more than some colours or wavy walls. The traditional view of open-eyed hallucinations is mostly from people who have never done drugs and misunderstand how they work.
I think there's a lot of individual variation on sensitivity. 1.5 tabs (~180ug) gets me actual visions during the peak, break with reality type. Like dreaming while you're awake, eyeballs an input like how an alarm clock's sound might be incorporated into a dream. I would probably have to take like a third of a tab to actually be able to do anything while tripping.
Salvia works too, but why would you want to do that to yourself?
I bought Salvia from a friend who traveled to a legal state and all they could find was the 160x shit where a single dried leaf is a heroic dose.
I've tried to smoke it 3-4 times but I think its literally impossible. I don't think they make scales to measure out a dose small enough.
I can only imagine how much 160x Salvia would be brain breaking.
Are you on any SSRIs? My SO is and she never gets open eye hallucinations even if she takes a stupid amount of mushrooms.
I range from mild visuals at like 1.5g to reality melting stuff at 4g. The only shrooms I've ever had are ones I've grown and they're fairly strong so I don't know how that translates to other stuff.
Wowowow talk about DMT being something else. I had the exact same experience, but was the beings had more of a southeastern Asian stylistic depiction of dragon/oni type things. I was trying to get up off the table and they gently kept pushing me down telling me i wasn't ready yet.
Same on surgery wake up as a 4 year old kid.
Strange.
the two times I've had actual surgery, I've woken up halfway through.
:scared: that's one of my deepest fears. Holy shit
Probably the one time I took salvia and I was watching The Office but was in a black void and there was a group of people walking along the bottom of the screen in and out of doors, kinda like a movie theater.
I knew a guy who took a bunch of dramamine and thought bats were chasing him down the block, another guy on dramamine thought there was dozens of scorpions under his bed.
