While doing acid for the first time last weekend, I was hanging out with a good friend of mine while I was coming up to keep me calm. She and I just sat around in a park and talked on the swings for an hour or two, and there wasn't anything that really went wrong while we were chilling together. I walked back to my house when it started to really kick in, and had a really good trip. It was an excellent experience. Anyways, ever since hanging out with her that night I have really felt a sense of dislike towards her. It seemed as if I saw a very subtle part of her personality that I'd never noticed before, and it really bothered me. I just felt like she was completely faking every bit of emotion she had put into her friendship. Has anyone else ever experienced something like this? I just found it incredibly strange that I felt such a resentment towards her after one night when I have known her for a few years.

often times when i'm tripping on LSD i start to become really aware of social structures and the roles people play in groups.  i don't know exactly what you saw in her personality that you didn't like, but in my experience everyone, even the best of my friends, can become annoying given the proper circumstances and state of mind.  like BH said, we all do things and act in way that are somewhat less than enlightened from time to time.  in fact, i find that i'm personally most bothered when i see my own problems in others.  or its certainly possible that this chick is no good and you just now realized it

i must admit it seems odd to me that you felt the trip was positive despite dealing with those sorts of thoughts.  i'd suggest that you were just tripping out, but you say the feelings are lingering beyond the trip.

in any case, i'd suggest taking some time away from her - don't hang out with her for a couple weeks and see if you start to miss her.  then hang out and see if you still feel the same way.

hope that helps!
