Now I'm not sure if this only happened because I've heard about other people encountering entities on other substances such as DMT and shrooms, but when I first tried LSD, I had the most wonderful experience I could hope for. I was at a social gathering with a bunch of my close friends. I had recently picked up some LSD on a candy (6 "hits" I was told, I'd assume 100ug per hit but I'm not positive) with four strips. LSD is very hard to come by where I live, so I consider myself a very lucky person. After being assured that it was indeed LSD, (by someone on this site) I was psyched to take it. I took a strip at 4;00, and couldn't wait to experience it. I could feel light effects pretty soon afterwards, minor visual hallucinations and body high, and at 5;00 (approx) I took another. Now the visuals were really starting to kick in. Colors were enhanced, all the posters and tapestries were moving and swirling, and the body high was starting to get intense. People in images seemed to be looking around and changing their expressions. Surprisingly, the drug still increased my social skills. I was funny and clever, I laughed at everything, I could appreciate irony I never could have picked out sober, and I felt so much more comfortable around everyone there. I had realizations similar to when I started smoking weed which I wish I had written down. I began to understand my personality in a way I couldn't before, and I liked it. This made me more confident than I had felt in a long time, zero anxiety. I just honestly had so much fun. Everyone else there smoked bud, so it wasn't like they all had to be sober and watch me trip. Around 10 I felt like I was starting to peak, just as everyone except the hosts were starting to leave. I took another half strip, put my headphones in, and closed my eyes. I saw a swirling, geometric pattern. It started less vivid, and increasingly became more so. Colors burst out, and tubes (sort of tubes, sort of hallways) lashed around. It would be impossible to explain this, but I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about. I heard people talking, as if the room was full and I was at a party. I decided the trip was trying to distract me, to see if I cared more about socializing than tripping. I delved deeper. The trip was incredibly interactive, and I could control my movement around the labyrinth before me. I underwent several puzzles to get to the "core" of what I was seeing. The entire area seemed alive, but my first encounter with tangible intelligent beings was when, all at once, I was surrounded by a swarm of squids. They wrapped all around me, and dragged me forward. I was right outside the core when they disappeared: it resembled the sun, a burning sphere, but with bursts of deep red, green, and yellow. Suddenly I was in the presence of a woman with tentacles for hair. I could communicate with her via emotion and willpower, but other than an occasional shriek she didn't say anything at all. This next part is a little embarrassing... Before I go any further I need you to understand that I am not a sexually starved individual, nor am I obsessed with sex. This wasn't some wet dream, it was just another puzzle. At first I couldn't get along with her. She was easily pissed off, and my attempts to communicate were met with aggression. She attacked me with a force I couldn't really describe. This is when the shrieking I was talking about happened. I fought back, and as I eluded to earlier, I fucked her. There was really nothing sexual about it, I just sensed thats what I needed to do. After this she seemed nicer, and she pulled me into the sphere, and transformed. She became the most glorious thing I've ever imagined. Her head looked like an octopus, she was robed and sitting cross-legged in from of a brilliant light, surrounded by whirling pentagrams of every color. Just then my friends came back. They had been stuck in the snow for the last hour and a half, and couldn't get out of the driveway. We had ourselves a nice all-nighter, but I kinda wish I had stayed there. Since then I've been drawing more than I have ever before, but I know I'll never be able to capture what I saw. It's not very likely, but let me know if anything similar to this has happened to you. That would help me believe it was "real". I'm somewhat agnostic by nature. I understand experiences like this aren't very common on LSD, nor are they for inexperienced trippers, but I swear on anything you like that its what happened.
-------------------- The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
