What I thought was a 225ug tab, I was extremely wrong. I took the tab on my tongue, regular LSD. Went over to my friends house to ride the trip out, smoked a little bit, as per usual with an experience such as mushrooms. This being my first LSD trip I hadn't known what to expect - holy shit. I rode the wave for the first half an hour, not expecting much, however I felt an awful sense of dread... like I did something wrong, I never felt this before on any psychedelic, so something about this LSD wasn't right. Before long the effects set in, usual effects, geometric visuals... etc. However, I began to trip extremely hard... very... quickly. LOOPS. The world quickly turned into an everlasting loop, my friend repeatedly going up and down the stairs chanting in a rhythm like I had not heard before. The stairs became infinite. (M.C. Escher's Relativity), I felt trapped. My friend guided me up to his room. I lay on the bed, he is saging my aura at this point. I am nothing now. I see sigils everywhere, everything becomes one loop. I hear one frequency and it becomes everything. The world feels ancient, terrifying. My world... or at-least, my idea of the world... it was dead. Jesters danced to the symphony of my brain, rewiring everything. Time DIED. I was in pure nothingness and everything. I was told this would be everything forever, and I was forced to accept it. Within what felt like 2 minutes, or a lifetime, I regained conciousness, and dare-I-say with hardly a semblance of sanity. Woken up, my friend tells me I was on the bed for 2 and a half hours in pure torment the entire time. I wake up terrified. My world had simply dissolved. No time, no ego, no love. The experience made me REBORN. It took some time, I had trauma. Extensive trauma. I was terrified, until I came to the realisation that no matter if I didn't like the true nature of reality, I had to accept it so I could move on to regain a sense of self.. so I could remove the derealisation that rocked my life. Then, my world improved. This taught me life, how we are everything, we are the universe, and we are still a growing conciousness with little intelligence. Please check your LSD dosages, I only found out last week my tab was triple dipped unknowingly, creating a 675ug MONSTROSITY batch of LSD for all to enjoy. Combining this with WEED, it created ego-shattering torment for myself. I am extremely grateful for the experience presently, however... be careful. This LSD was dealt to a number of people. Many saw demons, many egos were broken, and terror did rock local psychonauts that week... many believed they were in for a fun experience. Please check your dosages before taking any substance, you may regret it, I don't regret it... however one may be driven insane. Safe travels. ✌️
