So I've done acid a few times now, never more than 2 hits though. Yesterday me and a trusted friend took 3 hits of some pokemon blotters in my car and drove to his place. We were supposed to do it around 6:00 but due to unreliable people we didn't get it until about 11:00. When we get there with plans to play some Halo, his gf(who doesn't do drugs) was halfway through a movie so we went in his basement and smoked a couple bongs. The usual effects(twitchyness, feeling my spinal fluid, metallic taste) didn't start kicking in until about an hour and a half after we dropped, and they didn't get very intense for a long time. Don't get me wrong the trip was alright we had some good laughs and everything was perpetually moving, but it wasn't as intense as I was expecting considering my last trip was a good 6 months ago.
Fast forward to 5:00am. Me being 135 pounds, I was still seeing things move a little bit but my friend who is about 220 pounds trip was pretty much over. We start complaining that the night wasn't worth the money and decide to go smoke some more bongs(whenever I do cid I can't smoke because it makes me cough and gives me the weirdest feeling in my throat, so we waited until the trip was over.) My friend packs bong after bong after bong to try to get the feeling back but it has no effect on him. Me on the other hand, did it ever effect me! I somehow managed to get into my own head and control my senses, at one point i saw everything move frame by frame as if my mind was just a cheap cell phone camcorder. I saw sound burst out of the tv in a wave of amazing sharp rainbow patterns and ripple accross the room like a wave over and over, I saw scrolling words in my mind that made me realize everything i ever wanted to know. Every part of a structure that mattered was lit up in an amazing multicolor glow and everything was moving so fast yet so slow. I can't even stress how beautiful these colors were, they were like nothing I'd ever seen before.
And then the mind trip came. We were watching Just for Laughs on tv and I was thinking to myself how I always seem to think outside the box and notice things that other people don't, for instance that little devil guy thats decorating the back of the stage(yes there really is a little cartoon devil guy in that program.)... WRONG THING TO THINK OF! For some reason I subconsciously kept repeating the word devil over and over in my head until all my colors started appearing the darkest of dark blood red and emanating out of the tv and into my head. I suddenly realized how bad an idea it was to think of the devil and desperately tried to think of anything else I could, but my mind drew a blank. I looked at my friend who was sitting in front of me and the red color outlined devil horns on his head. At this point I got the worst sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach that I've ever had in my life and all I could think was "Oh god no this isn't happening." The back of my friends head turned into the face of the devil and it was the worst ugliest scariest thing I think I'll ever witness. This story ends well though.
Being a self proclaimed/diagnosed introvert(I'm inside my own head 9/10 of the day) I somehow told myself I could get over it and beat this devilish feeling. I turned back to my friend, forcing myself to look at him. I said, `talk to me about something buddy, anything!!` Luckily we had done acid with each other a few times and he realized the panic in my voice and asked if I wanted him to change the channel. I said yes change it to anything, the tv guide!! He changed the channel and I felt myself coming back to reality a little bit. It took me about 5 minutes to get over it and keep my mind off of the devil but it felt like an eternity. The color trip came back a short time later and i spent the next 2 hours playing halo with my friend until the effects were gone and I could drive home. I guess what I`m trying to say here is that even if you know you can control your own mind, there`s still a hell of a lot you don`t know about yourself and on such a powerful phsychadellic, anyone can find themselves slipping into the spiraly circle of doom without any hope of returning.
My advice to anyone and everyone is to keep your mind focused on good things and philosophize on life not death because the things you realize on acid can have a large impact on you for the rest of your life. I believe the things you realize on acid have great significance and you can`t ignore the feelings you get, but remember, not EVERYTHING you trip out about is real! This experience has not put me off of acid and I plan on doing it again in another couple of months on a larger dose(5 hits)
