This is all so very interesting - its rare to hear of others experience taking psychedelics. My experience of taking LSD quite a few times is mixed. My fist 'trip' was so amazing, expanding my mind into the beauty and connection with all of life. My senses were very acute, I could see wonderful coloured auras around everything, I could hear probably about 10 times the distance I normally could, I could hear peoples thoughts, feel what they were feeling, I could see a blade of grass in great detail plus its aura metres away, I felt a connection with all of nature and all people. It was a really awesome experience and it opened my mind to the knowledge that there was a lot more out there than I knew. Looking back I can see it made me more open minded and know that things are not always as they seem and there was a lot more out there that the 'average' person had no idea about, I had experienced a different dimension. After taking LSD several times there was the one (and last one)trip that was not so good - it was like being completely out of my head and in a place of near hell - this took about 2 years to recover from physically and who knows what the long term effects have been mentally.

However, after that I did smoke dope - and I think 'dope' was the right word as the last time I smoked, I found that I could not hold a thought in my mind, it was very frightening, and when I looked in the mirror I was horrified to see a deranged person looking back at me!

I am glad that I have had these experience, well the good ones anyway, but the bad ones I most certainly would not wish anyone to experience them. Much love Myra x
