What An LSD Trip Is Like

by

Yeah, something like that, only darkerI’ve taken LSD once — but not by choice. My boyfriend at the time did the “open your mouth and close your eyes and you will get a big surprize” thing and boy, was it EVER a surprize! So, if you happen to be at a party or your significant other suddenly turns into a skeleton with a smile, don’t panic — it’s just LSD (also known as acid, Bartman, blotter paper, window pane). It will pass.

Nothing Can Hurt You

The first thing you have to realize that with LSD, you will see things. You may hear things, too or even smell things, just like an hallucination. But it’s like television — it seems like it’s right there with you, but it’s not.

So, get to a safe place, sit back and enjoy the show. Depending on the quality of the LSD and your general health, effects can last a few hours or a couple of days. There will be plenty of time later to inflict revenge on the person who spiked you.

What You See

Everyone’s LSD trips are different, so I’ll describe some of the things I saw. Everyone’s faces had lots of colorful squiggles on them and various flaces flashed over the face. The one that kept popping up on my boyfreind’s face was a vampire.

The great thing was the flashes. I could write in the air as if my finger was a pen. That was highly amusing.

I also saw a small grey, black and white wolf sitting in the corner of the room. However, he just sat there and watched and soon he was no big deal.

I also felt that my body had extended far beyond the borders of my skin. I could reach my hand out perhaps six inches from the wall — and feel the wall. Again, that was highly amusing, but it made going to the toilet a challenge worthy of climbing Mt. Everest.

The Come Down

Most of the visual hallucinations went away in about twelve hours and the feeling of beeing “trippy” (goofy yet calm) lasted for three days. And when I came back down to earth, I discovered my boyfriend had robbed me of nearly $1000.

So, I don’t recommend taking LSD, but you do get to see some pretty lights.
