Problems perceiving reality correctly after lsd
    #23731924 - 10/12/16 05:20 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Hey everyone,

Needing some guidance in regards to how I have started perceiving reality after quite an intense trip on lad I had. Basically, as the story is quite a long one ( if anybody is interested pm me) I believe I died and ascended to the after life and for what was 5 minutes in reality but felt like hours to me, I was speaking to a sort of God like entity. He explained to me in metaphors so that I could understand, that each human is just a character and is being played (so to speak) by the conciousness that is God and that is all of reality. The after life was a beautiful place and I all I felt was a sort of full body orgasm the whole time. Super euphoric and beautiful, full of love and togetherness. For about a week after this experience I was feeling great. However, for some reason I do not know I started feeling terrible and I started and still do to some extent, believe that all of reality is just a projection cast on our eyes from information our brain gathers and that nothing is really real. Including my loved ones and everything around me. This meant that I felt like no one really loved me and that I was completely alone walking though a projection. It has gotten better and I do feel a lot better now (a few months on) but I still get the feeling if I think about it that nothing is real.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, sometimes on Occassion I can feel these entities influencing my life, only in positive ways and it has let me realise that everything is of a master plan for me, created by these being and this has let me flow with life a lot easier.

Has anyone had any similar experiences?

And most importantly, does anyone have any advice and/or insight to share with me on how to overcome this fear and anxiety I feel from this.

Thank you so much and all opinions are welcome if they will help me.

Much love and thanks again

I'm not entirely sure there's anything wrong with you mentally. You might shake it off. Your position is actually pretty valid existentially. I mean, sure, there are actual external beings corresponding to the mental phenomena that is your entire life, but in a way its true that everything you perceive isn't real except in your mind.

So it is understandable that you might feel that you can't be sure if you're loved or not. The fact of the matter is that the questions your raising are serious questions in philosophy, and you're not necessarily insane for thinking them. You just gotta try and cope with the uncertainty. If this kind of thing really bothers you too much then you might wanna stop taking psychedelics. They will always bring these kinds of questions to the fore.

Thanks for the reply man, I have gotten a lot better then I used to be but yeh it's just the fact that I will never know that bothers me, is it normal to think things like this from taking psychs? Like this sort of subject matter, is it common? I don't think I'll stop though it really does interest me and it's very purculiar, it hasn't Broken me or anything bad and I haven't developed or felt any real mental issues from it it just really confuses me and every now and again I get a bit anxious. Do you know of any where that would be good for me to continue my investigation or any good sources or anything like that? Really appreciate your response man!

Created after a potentially similar trip. It may help a bit:shrug:

I think I was deluded so maybe I couldn't have been.
Self important, egotistical meanings, purposeful outcomes unseen.
The pointlessly whimsical Meandering of somebody going nowhere.
When in fact I thought maybe there was a purpose, I found out what a scare!

Now here is where a few journeyman may have fallen.
The realisation of uselessness to much for an ego swollen.
Delusions of purpose is all that they are.
When in fact comfort is found on a bridge too far.

We ain't going nowhere we ain't already been.
You can relax like a sunset a beautiful slate cleaned.
You see your unimportant's should allow a liberation.
Help you dispel linear a scientific aberration.

Why did I think it was for a reason.
I'm important an understandings treason.
Needless Like a flower a smile or even a tasty treat.
Otherwise the shock of it all might knock you off your feet.

I guess what I'm trying to say is its ok.
Please don't feel wasted or a societal stray.
When the burden of a never ending why is replaced by the simple glorious sky.
Delusions of destinations will be defeated it's ok to fly.

Well nothing is real, what is real? An illusion? You're just fine and on track in my eyes. The experience you had is sacred, and of rarity. Feel blessed to be who you are, because you truly are!

Accepting the new you, and your embedded viewpoints on reality that will never leave you, it's a beautiful thing, let me remind you. To be who you are. Truly.

You're not alone, I'm here with you as well as others across the Globe. We are in the golden age of remembering who we are. Or "The age of Re-awakening" globally and consciously, we were just lost as humans, we lost our ways from Nature. We forgot what it meant to be human. Globally we are growing consciously at an exponential rate hop on the train! And I'll see you in the end :smile:

The very fabric of your sense of self has been questioned. All those things you may have taken as absolutes and something to base your self worth and actions from has been shifted. Once as Eclipse said you realise that its ok to question everything then flux and growth can occur. Don't believe anybody elses answers if they conflict with yours, but here on  the shroomery you may find opinions and experiences that mesh with yours. Deep breaths and welcome in:thumbsup:

Thanks man that's great to hear! How do you mean remembering who we are? It's funny you say that about nature though man because ever since the trip and a trip I had a month after this one, I felt a connection with trees and literally felt a somewhat teleconectic connection of communication. Now since then I call feel and draw upon their energy when I'm feeling down and I have such a relationship with nature now that I'm so great full for! Swear I'm being truthful with this!

Thanks man makes sense, since the expletive I believe I have grown tremendously and it's let me understand and experience things entirely differently! Cheers for your help!

Dude click the "conciousness" link in my signature. What you have explained is the same conclusion I have reached through multiple psychedelic trips.

You had a conversation with god who basically told you that you are the only person who exists and everyone else is a projection of god and is just playing some sort of role in yoyr life.

Did you ever stop to think that maybe you are also god and this situation applies to everyone on earth as well. That would mean that everyone is experiencing life and you are just a projection to them.

Equals the playing field now doesnt it?

I believe you are the only thing that exists. But i believe that I am a seperate instance of the only thing that exists. In a universe where time is only created by man, you and I are essentially the same being. God if you will.

If we are the only thing that exists then what is the pourpose of life?
Well if we are all that there is than we are everything and nothing at the same time. To understand how magnificant we are we must create how insignificant we are. To understand how good we are we must create a reference point therefore creating all the evil that we are as well.
The pourpose of our life is to carry out the human experience that we are given. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

Do with it as you please. You have been given the gift of free will. The world is your oyster. You create your own reality every day.

Glad that hit it home! It's no coincidence we often come to similar conclusions while tripping.

Take that idea with you next time you trip and you can really start to explore how amazing it really is.
Connection between family and friends becomes so much more important.
People rely on you just as much as you rely on them to create the most pleasurable human experience for eachother as you possibly can.

Its that big secret we knew all along. Next time you're caught up with lifes struggles just give yourself a little reminder that you're just doing your part like everyone else and be on your way.

:hug:

"So it goes."

check out gary weber, he talks about getting to a place like this through meditation. if you can get back there sober, it might help your mind make sense of the experience

:whathesaid:

Astral travel, astral projection (my profile picture) eventually you will be able to develop that innate ability to travel lucidly and spiritually (through spirit body) with no drugs at all. I'm glad it's all making sense. The beginning stages of an awakening are the hardest parts, conflict of ideas with close peers, wondering if you're going "crazy" diagnosing yourself with medical conditions, the list goes on. Trust your feelings and you'll be okay.

It's just a trip bro, dont take it too seriously, God is just a creation of the human mind from a time where  psychedelics were socially accepted.

Like when the greeks used to trip on ergot drinks and created all their mythology and religions

The problem with all is one is there is no two. Sounds like you had ego death, I've been there a few times. Was an amazing experience which resulted in a sort of existential crisis. I've come to two conclusions: One, trying to rationalize the experience in a sober mind state is futile. Two, I'm not sure of anything anyway, yeah that could be the "true nature of reality" or maybe I was just really high. I'll never truly know so why worry about it.
