Just wondering if anyone has ever had a true epiphany on shrooms. About 3 months ago I was on a few pills, some ket, and 4 or 5 grams of proper English shrooms, top quality. I felt amazing, as always, although I don't shroom too much, to keep each one special. I really needed some weed, as I always do when tripping, and I had an oz waiting for me not far off, but I couldn't make it, so my friend went for me. There was a block of someone's hash on the table, so I had some of that, and then I went into a trip unlike any other I'd ever had. I didn't really register where I was, or what was going on, but I had this image of the entire world in my head, and I couldn't understand it. I kept on telling my friends that I had this question, although I didn't really know what it was - something like what is the world, and what is life,and what is a person (evolution mystified me), I couldn't understand the concept that something can live (and still don't). Someone gave me a blanket because I was really scared - not paranoid but resigned to the fact that there is just us, and that's it, and that scared me so much I was almost crying. Then after a few hours, I realised that it didn't matter, the answer was to have a good time, and have fun and not worry, whatever the question was. I told my friends to remind me not to worry, that I had found the answer, and every time I got worried because of the question I didn't understand, I was reassured. Then I went to my friends house with a load of sober people and got really pissed and ketted out. I was completely changed by this experience - I took quite a lot of shit before but now I truly understand that at the end of the day happiness is all that matters - my own and other people's. I joined this forum recently to meet other people who rejected the 9 to 5 world, and I'm going to stop writing now because it's no longer interesting. Still, any similar stories or opinions would be much appreciated.j
i had a vision once, more like a realisation actually. it came to me in a split second that i could fix up my life and become teh prime minister of australia or continue down the road of drugs into nothingness. but really, who wants to be prime minister
i've been getting alot of shit from my mother about weed killing my brain and how it's gonna send me insane because i have depression, etc etc. it was part of the realisation as well. i don't necassarily believe it, but whatever.
Unlucky man, I get the same shit, but it'll stop one day and you'll decide a reasonable amount to smoke (not an ocean).
it's the shrooms that did that to you. i've been through that for an hour and a bastard half. not the nicest experience in the world.
yea i been tehre too man. one time i ate an eighth then re-dosed another 2 grams of shake from the bottom of an O. let me tell you man, fucked up nights happen when you take that much shrooms lol. i ate em around 11 and by 1230 i was under the impression that i was insane, and then by 130 i was under the impression that i was dead. i did not move or sleep but i just lay there until 6 oclock in the morning when i finally fell asleep. i couldn't move, i really thought i was dead but could still see and hear and smell, i thought thats what death was and it freaked me out. i thought i was just gonna have to watch my parents come in my room and find me the next morning and watch them cry and watch the ambulance and watch the cops look around my room for evidence of how i died, i saw all of that while i lay there. and that spun me to new thoughts of remorse and longingness for the past, thats what i get alot from shrooms, a longing for being a child again, and everything that goes along with that. then i started thinking about if life was even important or significant, and i kept looking at humans as scared little organisms that dont konw much more than a squirrel, only humans ahppen to have a harder working larger brain. and it kind of amazed me that my whole life i looked at poeple like they knew what they're life was about, they had it all figured out adn never wondered. but i realized everyone thinks like that at somepoint, and everyone is no better than anyone else. idk it was a very memorable experience and i haven't really shroomed since then, it was april 2005. im gonna be tripin pretty soon here so i hope it will be more on the fun side of all my other shroom trips. im getting acid pretty shortly too i'm kind of excited about that.
Shit man that sounds scary. I know what you mean about seeing people as just clever animals, in the trip i was talking about i couldn't work out what a person was, it was such a strange concept, and i saw everyone being the same and it scared me.
