Tripping on Seroquel?
    #28600355 - 12/27/23 10:36 PM (1 month, 8 hours ago)

Okay, I have a confession. I was given Seroquel many months back when I was suffering from an anxiety attack (please no, "no drugs are bad, m'kay" lecture).

What shocked me was that as soon as it hit, it was like a psychedelic trip! I'm not kidding you. Here, I am thinking that this grounds people with psychosis (a "buzz" killer), now I'm seeing that it's providing yet another window into existence. It's very trippy to just think that every drug is another window into another reality,)

I'm not on it anymore, but it just makes me think. How exactly did I trip on Seroquel? Is this possible?

My point is that I think people give pharma drugs a bad rap. The suspicion is understandable, but, used in the right way, (though discovered by the scientific method), they too -- like LSD -- can be an access into a wider world, or a hint to "something more". Key is using it in the right way, which is admittedly tricky and requires uncertain balance.

Not advocating that people just take Seroquel, to be clear, but I wanted to provide a data point: I tripped on Seroquel, despite it being a so-called "antipsychotic".

Anyhow, I'm curious, has anyone else tripped on Seroquel? What have your experiences been?

In my trip, it felt like the world turned into a mouse-like film creation. Yeah, I know it sounds ridiculous, but there's some truth to it in the sense that it's how I felt. Like, what I was saying when "what would be like to be utterly convinced you could cast spells". On Seroquel, I was utterly convinced that reality just fundamentally changed... "mouse-like film creation" isn't meant to be taken literally. It just provides a "vibe" of what I felt by the experience. Also fell like I found the "missing piece" that made reality complete, that previously eluded me.

Anyhow, as soon as Seroquel hits, I see this red blast go off in my mind's eye, and then this other dream like world that I awaken opens to me. It feels like the veil is lifted. And, mind you, this wasn't just once. This was multiple times. Every time you hit me up with Seroquel, it was like clockwork: red blast in mind's eye, dream like work awakening, veil is lifted. I was only on it for something like 3 nights, maybe?

Mystical stuff.

Delirium Induced by Quetiapine and the Potential Role of Norquetiapine

Quetiapine can evidently produce such effects in a very small percentage of those who use it. Typically such results are considered undesirable. They are also so rare that they weren't even reported in the medical literature until after about 12 years of it being in circulation. I'd consult your doctor about this and seek a more effective medication.




Thanks for the reference.

Yeah, it's for sure interesting, although I definitely do not consider it undesirable. Maybe undesirable to popular culture, but, to me? It definitely was an altered state of consciousness. Not necessarily the same as shrooms, ketamine, or cannabis, but a distinct "world" all onto its own.

I just find it funny, here am I thinking it's going to be a buzz killer as a so-named "antipsychotic", and, nope, I just find out it's one other window into another reality. That really rocked my perception of what the mind is, and got me thinking more along the lines of brain as a limiter of consciousness. I mean, if we only filter it to see one end of reality, and drugs alter the brain, the mind can expand to "see" other things. That is, there's infinitely more perceptions to be had. For me, Seroquel made me more spiritual, not less--which is something I never expected, and to which (despite my sympathies for more "natural" medicine), I have to give it due credit. But, again, I only used it three times and each time it was incredibly enjoyable to me (and others around me), ha.

I still think the mania that develops as a result of some of these drugs (and there's more than just Quetiapine out there) is visionary, regardless of what anyone tells me. I know the importance of staying safe, but, yes, there were other "antipsychotics" and "antidepressents" that I tried, and they too only further broke the lid off my reality. None of it made me feel more "grounded", which is something I considered very desirable once I gave into my belief that the mystical world exists.

To be honest, it wasn't all good. It was unsettling at first, because it was like stepping onto something new. But, again, once I gave in that the mystical world was real all along, I found tremendous peace. These drugs did bring mental peace in mind... more comfortability with the reality of mystical experience and visionary encounters.

By the way, as context: this is part of what set me off from turning from a cafeteria-style spiritual denialist into someone who is now more open-minded towards mysticism. It was just WAY too much of a constant mystical "enlightenment" 24/7 going on during this "mental health scare" period, that eventually I needed to throw in the chips (a good thing), and admit that the mystical world existed, despite my childhood resistance.

I think the implications of tripping on Seroquel are pretty significant. Whereas before I thought that psychedelics were a symptom of the entheogen's expression, now I see it more as an alteration that comes from it, just like the case is for Seroquel. To me, it indicates that the mind is just a window into a broader awareness.
