Learning how I respond to psychedelics
    #21577800 - 04/21/15 07:20 PM (9 years, 29 days ago)

I love how mushrooms and lsd make me think and feel, but no so much act. In fact lack there of, of acting. When Im tripping I always feel like I cant think of anything to say. Im always with friends so there is no issue and its not really awkward but I want to be in on stupid nonsense conversations. I am a total introvert but can normally carry on an in depth conversation if Im in the mood.

Does anyone else have the issue of wanting to express and be vocal when tripping but i guess just kinda being mind fucked and not even knowing what to say?

I guess a lot of times I feel like I have something to say but when I think about it it seems out of place to say or I just wait to long.

Stupid problem I know but I dont really know how to explain it. any thoughts appreciated. Thanks guys

psychs are not meant for you to take and say the right thing to friends.


--------------------
Something there is mysteriously formed,
Existing before Heaven and Earth,
Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging,
All-pervading, unfailing,
I do not know its name; I call it tao.
If forced to give it a name, I call it
Great (ta). Being great, it flows out;
Flowing out means far-reaching;
Being far-reaching, it is said to return.


It's just a shot away..

I agree with bill. Maybe try tripping alone? I get introverted and it can be difficult to really participate in conversation to the fullest with my gf even though she is cool with it and i act fairly normal. Unless its mescaline or something like that she loves it when i eat cactus because i act myself just a little more outgoing and im able to think of more fun activities for us

I'm an introvert and very awkward in social settings. Although, I rarely trip with friends. I mostly trip alone by myself so I don't have to worry too much about these kind of things so I can just focus on myself which pays off in the end, for me that is.
But the few times I did trip with close friends I found myself to be very outgoing. The thought "Why not?" always came to my mind which motivated me to do/say what I wanted, and also I think to myself that I'm tripping so it's okay to act weird because I'm not trying to trip just to act and feel normal.

Hopefully this makes sense. I typed it out pretty quickly and I'm a little sleepy.

Yea now I usually trip alone. I just wish I could kinda settle into a shared trip with friends. I suppose my time will come with more experience.

I have that same problem, except when i'm sober! I always like to trip alone because i'm such an introvert, so i'm much more comfortable being alone. I really suck at small talk, i'm only really interesting when we get into a more interesting conversation.

You are an introvert, be an introvert, you enjoy being an introvert more than acting, talking, etc. They accept you for who you are.

I'm also very introverted and one of the reasons I prefer not to talk is because I practically end up speaking gibberish whenever I’m trying to say something. Not due to a speech disorder, no, but due to the fact that there’s so many thoughts going in my head at once that I get distracted and confused from what I’m actually trying to say.

The stuff! It did the thing! Events occurred! You know?

There are times when I’m so lost in abstract thought that my mind completely wipes out all knowledge of simple, practical vocabulary. So I’m stuck trying to explain a complex concept by pointing at objects and trying to mime my way through, then obviously and hilariously failing, ha. And don’t even try talking to me when I’m high unless you’re looking for a “conversation” of disjointed sentence fragments and a seemingly random word soup.

And concerning small talk to keep those wacky conversations going;
While I don’t initiate it, I do try my best to respond as appropriately and as comprehensively as possible. However, there are certain people who are just not satisfied with my efforts and will simply stand there, smiling and staring at me with that creepy, frozen, slightly open-mouthed smile, expecting me to keep the conversation going. It’s amazing just how long it takes them to realize that I have no intention of doing so. What makes it even worse is that I can’t make eye contact, so I end up looking around the room while they simply carry on with their gawking.

When it comes to complete strangers, I have a serious problem giving a shit about their day, their kids, their car, their recent vacation, their friends, what they had for breakfast, or what brand of toiler paper they wipe their ass with. That is, unless they’ve proven to be interesting in some way, by other means. If we already have something in common, it becomes easier to care about the small details of their life. Otherwise it’s a huge pain in the buttocks coming up with something genuine to say. Just once I’d like to see a stranger come up and engage me in a stimulating conversation about something relevant…like the meaning of life. I’d gladly discuss that over my morning coffee.

Your friends enjoy your company, the things you say sporadically, etc.

I often trip alone or with a friend who I am very comfortable with. It's not about socializing. It's about exploring your consciousness. At least that's how it is from my perspective.

Yep I trip alone mostly. So I can concentrate on my thoughts more easily. Trying to vocalize these thoughts and pause any other thought can be a waste if doing it in the moment
Best to observe and share later. I don't like people distracting me from my own personal revelations. Don't get me wrong I love tripping with friends, I just don't expect to get much introspection or meditation done. Psychs aren't the best bonding drug. But i feel during a comedown, I love hanging out with friends and communication improves.

But yeah, I know you want to tell your friends everything you're thinking and seeing, but remember this: can you even keep Track of your friends words/thoughts that well? If not, then neither can they and you should just shut up and tell them later when coming down. Coming up and peaking is for pure observation and self exploration

I sometimes whilst tripping get very self conscious about whether I'm 'acting appropriately' around other people.

I can sometimes be a little socially awkward anyway in certain circumstances, but psychs seem to amplify that x10 and even around good friends I seem to have to over analyse conversation and body language manually in order to pick up on normally easy social cues, which makes it quite hard to keep things flowing in a non retarded way.

Something I'll have to practice on i reckon :wink:

Is this anything like what you mean?
