Hello my fellow trippers, just a little introduction about myself. I live in Houston, Texas, and throughout my teens I was one of those "I get high off of life" type of guys. I found myself being very insecure with myself constantly around people and when I'm by myself before my journey. I am 23 years old now, and I would say that I used psychedelics more than probably and maybe more than 50 times(I love tripping) ranging from lsd(first psychedelic), shrooms, and dmt. Though a drug in mainstream media, I view it as a teacher, or a sage that doesn't show you what you want to see, but rather what you need to see bad or good. All of the experiences pushed me into spirituality introducing me to meditation, lucid dreaming, and self love.

The following I'll tell you about my worse/dangerous trip and my most awakening and spiritual trip(probably on another post):

Bad trip: I'll try to make it short.
This was the first time I was ever on real lsd, and not rc's. The trip started off with me and my friend in the swimming pool having a great come up. While wearing goggles underwater I could see geometric shapes passing me by every time I started to swim, felt like I was in space drifting though the cosmos. Well my step dad decided to come outside and hang out with us. This made me very uncomfortable and told my friend "Lets go for a walk. That was the worst decision of my life, due to it being sunday and that everybody was outside of their house. Well eventually I felt like everybody was looking at me, it was like their heads were turning at me but when I would look back, they'll just being doing their own thing(mowing the lawn, walking, etc.). An hour and a half into the trip is where I really went down the rabbit hole and became very confused. I'm just going to list the things that happened to me.
-thought I was doctor who, I needed to die to come back and save the world
-screaming unity at the top of my lungs
-Told my neighborhood cop to shoot me in the face(needed to die)
-Thinking I was in a dream and tried to fly in the middle of the street with cars passing
-Punched the concrete ground with all my strength(scarred my hands for life)
-Burned myself under a car that my friends tried to push me into
-Broke loose from 5 guys trying to put me in a cop car including the cop(really awesome cop).
-Picked up by ambulance and taken to the hospital.
-My neighborhood cop decide to have my back

I can go into more extreme detail but I feel this was already too long. Anyway that experience did not deter me from taking more lsd in the future, but I did have ptsd everytime I would trip again.
I'll post another one telling y'all about my best experience where I was a ascending into a high consciousness/ ego death, and haaving entity interaction. If you read it all, I appreciate your time, if not I still appreciate ya!

It sounds like you really need to reflect on why you’re using psychedelics and what you’re intentions are.

That sounds like an absolutely terrible experience that I certainly hoped you learned something from. Your set and setting were sub par to be sure. I don't think freaking out in the neighborhood is a typical reaction to LSD. Be careful my friend.

Why do you think you freaked out like you described? Is there more to the story? Did you get in any trouble? Continue please....

I'm sorry you had a rough time brother.

But I agree with the Alkemist, I think you should spend some time thinking about why you are using psychedelics, I believe they are great at helping to resolve issues going on with ones self, but if treated improperly they can definitely rush those problems that are being ignored to the surface and force you to deal with them.

Thanks for all your worry! I definitely had some self reflection after that incident 5 years ago. I dealt with some ptsd every other time I would trip again and basically relive that experience. Eventually I came to a understanding on what I should've done. I'm sure in that moment my ego was fighting the trip and was trying to rationalize/control it, as well as push me deeper into a bad trip. But now I've found that tripping by myself is the way to go. I could let go and not worry about the outside world. And in the moment of isolation from the outside world I was able to experience synchronicity in its entirety, and spiritual enlightenment.

To answer dmnstr8, yes I was extremely insecure when I was 18 and basically viewed myself based on how other people saw me, so I'm sure that why I started to freak out in the neighborhood. Also I don't have a real good relationship with my step dad so that is also why I felt very uncomfortable! thanks for your replies!
