Got high after 30 years
    #23970994 - 12/31/16 02:30 PM (7 years, 30 days ago)

Hi, I'm a newby but was interested in others experiences on shrooms. I used to do acid/ shrooms when I was a kid but just for fun and never really had profound experiences other that seeing music and watching trees melt - which was trippy.

So, last night I was hanging out with some younger dudes and told them that I really didn't do drugs any more but if I did it would be shrooms or maybe even aya.

So, I got a little drunk and young dude asked me if I wanted to do some shrooms and I said, "what the heck," and went for it.

Wow....I don't know what happened so wanted to check and see if others had had similar experiences.

All I can say is it felt like I spent 6 hours in another dimension where I wasn't even able to interact with this one. It was scary but once I managed the fear, I realized that I was not even sure I was in my own body. I had the sense that I could have been beaten up and lying in a coma somewhere or in the hospital or that I had been in a car accident and I wouldn't even know if I was dead or alive.

Then it dawned on me that I could already have been dead and wouldn't know it. I was sad but once I accepted the possibility, it was okay except that there seemed to be noway of interacting with this world.

There were no people in this dimension but I was sure I must be walking or sitting in the old dimension and probably raving and talking to myself. I worried about being hospitalized or arrested and not even knowing it. Maybe I was in a coma somewhere and already in jail but didn't know it. Maybe I was dead - everything was grey and dark but I was walking endlessly through deserted city-scapes with black, dead windows but everything seemed familiar as if I was walking as a ghost through haunted streets I had walked as a youth.

I was not sure if I could make it back but decided to just keep my arms to myself and remain passive hoping that if I was not aggressive in anyway that would translate peaceful intent back to my old dimension and I would not get beaten up or run over. I was wandering through a bad area of town and could not imagine being able to wander around completely out of my wits with no ability to perceive the real world without getting rolled or beaten up.

When I first got high my backpack was empty and I remember looking through and realizing that I had lost all my cash, id and credit cards and was in complete despair but later, as I started to peak, I looked again and all my possessions were there - I hadn't been rolled or beaten up at all.

I ran into a couple of cracker jacks and by this time I was so dry that if I didn't get water I was going to die but I couldn't find a store or even perceive how to enter one if I did find one. I told the couple I needed water and gave them money. They disappeared and I figured they had just left so layed down at a bus shelter and prepared to die of thirst.

I couldn't sit still though so staggered off to see if I was dead or still alive when I hear the guy calling me name and bringing me water. I told him he looked so real to me and he said, "I am real, Brian" I gave him and his girl a hug and told them they were so beautiful to me and I hoped they were really there and then wished them a happy new year. Hugs all around then they went to do a hoot.

I realized from my LSD days that I was starting to peak and I was getting glimpses of this dimension again. I realized I was probably still alive and that if I could make it home, I would be okay - as long as I wasn't in a hospital or a coma or actually dead.

I made it home at around 4 in the morning and things returned to normal but I am trying to make sense of this.

Did I have an out of body experience? Was I in another dimension. What happened while I was wandering around downtown completely out of my skull and unable to perceive my surroundings.

I am unhurt, still have all my belonging and relatively happy though still trying to come to grips with last night.

Sorry for such a long opening post. I just wondered if anyone else had had anything like this happen to them.

I thoroughly enjoyed this report, thank you for sharing! Can't say thats happened to me though... I always am in a safe place because the public & psychedelics don't like each other. Except for that time I smoked dmt at a concert.

Thanks for the responses both of you. DMT at a concert? Sounds existential. I remember doing acid at the Moody Blues show around '79 - just a wild experience. I still remember that one.

So, I've had a chance to process what happened a little bit and able to put the pieces together a bit more now that it is not so raw.

First of all, it was the intense paranoia I felt when first getting high that put me in danger because the dude who gave me the shrooms wanted me to stick around and chill but I thought people were trying to assassinate me. Why someone would want to assassinate someone as meaningless as me is a mystery but I really thought people were hunting me with crossbows and tripwires as I stumbled out of the guys place and into the street - apparently he tried to stop me but I was unstoppable.

So once I got control of the paranoia, things settled down for a while but I slowly lost my ability to interact meaningfully in what I call the real world.

I don't know if it was an OBE or disassociative state or whatever - which was what I was hoping to get some insight on when I posted here - but it seemed to me that my physical body must have been lurching around on autopilot while my mind was completely disconnected from my surroundings.

Very strange. The closest I can describe it was like being in a dream-state while fully conscious but unable to wake yourself up.

So, I remember walking for hours and hours through dark, deserted streets past buildings that hummed with low light but seemed completely devoid of life or colour. Sometimes I felt that everything was so familiar and I felt a longing to explore and find something or someone I could grab onto as being real. I had a feeling  I was being watched but I did not feel danger anymore - just a kind of wonderment and worry that my real body was somewhere I could not protect or help it and that anything could be happening to me in some other place. At times, I was sure I was walking through streets I had lived in my past - from childhood even. Strangely, today my toenails are bruised and falling off because I walked so far that night.

I stayed on the main streets but there were side streets that looked completely dark and dead and I felt that if I went down one of those side streets, I would meet something deadly and dark and never come back. I wasn't really afraid but I could feel something deadly if I strayed too far from the main path.

It was then that I had the strange sensation that I might already be dead. I remembered movies I had seen where ghosts were described as people who had died but didn't know it yet.

It came to my mind that I was completely lost and helpless and that this might be what had happened to me. I was dead and a ghost. I had to wrap my brain around that but at that point there was no doubt in my mind that I was someplace else other than the world and I did not know if I would ever make it back.

It was lonely.

This went on for a few hours before I ran into the people at the bus stop. It was then I realized I was starting to be able to interact with the world again.

So, all and all a very strange and humbling experience. There was no real flashing colour or psychedelia or even euphoria. It was more like being in an intense dream-like state or some kind of dimensional displacement. It felt like I was in between life and death somewhere.

My apologies for another long rambling post but I am really interested in the OBE experience. I have never really been a mystic or even very spiritual but I have had a couple of very strange experiences though nothing recent or as strangely intense as tripping the day before new years and so I'm trying to understand what it all means - if it means anything. Maybe I was just really, really high:-))

I have spent the last couple of days feeling very humble and grateful and realizing that there are things I will have to come to terms with going forward.

Thanks for listening,

Peace,
B

I'm glad to hear your friend at least tried to stop you from leaving - any idea how much you ate? Do you think you'll do them again? (Maybe a somewhat lower dose? lol)

I'm not sure how much I took. I was handed a plastic baggy about half full, if I remember correctly, of longish white stringy looking shrooms with kind of ruffled frilly caps.

I gobbled the whole thing down before really thinking about what I was doing (the booze stifling better judgement, no doubt)

So think a baggy about the size of half an ounce of pot only lighter because full of whole shrooms rather than dry weight pot, and you get the idea.

Yes, I would do it again. Not right away but maybe in a few months. I probably would not seek it out but if it came up again I might go for it.

Next time I would make sure I was better prepared and able manage my surroundings. I would probably do daytime and near the forest. I am not a city guy but was visiting for the holidays which was possibly part of the initial paranoia.

Once you've been blasted into outer space the way I was, a lower dose might be a bit of a disappointment, lol

I don't mean to sound like a dick but this is what tripping is. Set and setting plays into it a lot. Walking the streets at night can definitely catapult you into bleak feeling colorless grey trips.  Trips are not always classical psychedelia and good vibes. Sometimes they are dark, scary, and put you in places that exist purely to fuck with your head.

To explain a bit more about what "happened", For me narrative always plays a huge role in my trips, and It sounds to me like it might for you too.

The idea that you were dead/hurt and now exploring some after life or purgatory is something that is directly tied to the narrative that you were experiencing. At some point when you got lost and scared with no one around, because you had no one to interact with, and because you had no real preparation for this mindstate, you created a narrative that explained why you felt so weird and displaced that playfully forgot your consumption of  a large quantity (for your experience level and preparation) of psychedelics & drinks.

Psychonauts the world over are fascinated by the strange things that happen to them while tripping, and perceptual dimensional shifting is pretty well documented in trip reports at high doses. For me It's a mindstate that can feel a lot like a lucid dream or like I am the main player in a 4th dimensional videogame ( ie. the backpack moment). I would not describe it as an OBE, but psychedelics do cause dissociation, and that definitely played in to what you and I are describing.

Sometimes having people around to snap you out of your narrative can help with resetting your headspace. That's what happened at the bus stop. I think it's great to be fascinated by a crazy trip, but don't let the trip fuck with your head too much. It was a trip. No need to have to feed into it more than what you already experienced. Chew on it for a bit, then move on! Crazy shit happens!

Cheers to the fact that you got an interesting head change and made it home ok!
