[@Nick-lh7wi]

Happened to me when I took too much acid far too young. Took years to come back to this plane of existence… Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder (HPPD), felt like the acid never wore off and if I smoked weed at all it would send me to other dimensions. Profound deep thoughts would flood my mind and I was constantly aware of the “big picture”. Sounds cool but it was honestly very debilitating and hard to deal with, as a teen nonetheless. Glad I grew out of it and found my flow again.

Taking psychedelics as a teen is fucking stupid.

[@CPpdx20]

When he said "I would have killed myself but I knew I would be going into more of it." I've had that exact thing happen before on a really intense acid trip. I took too much and went way too far into that world and I thought I was never coming out of it and I actually considered offing myself as a solution but then was convinced that if I did that I would still be tripping.

[@SkitzWallaby]

Felt the exact same way many times! 800ug trips are all fun and games till suddenly it ain’t 😅 fucked my brain for a solid year and a half, finally feel like I’m back to normal but still not the same. I used to get visuals just staring at something for 10 seconds and my internal dialogue/voices were gettin freaky.. glad that’s stopped. I was in a bad psychosis for quite a while

[@ElyzaFlores]

i’ve felt this way after a shroom trip, i felt like i became too aware of everything around me. my mind became too open & it wasn’t something i was prepared for i guess. it scared me & i got anxiety because i felt like the shrooms fucked me up permanently so i had thoughts of ending myself.. it took me a couple of months to accept it & fully recover from that mindset.

[@CPpdx20]

I had a similar experience after the trip. I was fine the next day but gradually over the next 6 months or so I started disassociating more and more. And then I had a bad reaction to the COVID vaccine which triggered a really bad disassociation over a couple of weeks. There was one particular day where I felt like I was on an acid trip when I was completely sober. It's like I became acutely aware that everything is made of tiny molecules and atoms and it was like I could see that in everything and it became I sensory overload. I really thought I was going legitimately insane and was pretty scared for a bit.

[@adrianbiber5340]

mushrooms showed me a glimpse of what i thought was the afterlife & it seemed like a pleasant ocean of infinite energy, so i'm not afraid of death. i am however afraid of suicide because of the catholic idea of going to Hell, which becomes a paradox -- when I want to escape the Hell of life by suicide I can't because I'll end up in Eternal Hell. I guess that's a good move by the Catholics because it's kept me alive & life is not eternal Hell but fluctuates. better than Eternal

Unless you meditate, are serious about self betterment, are deeply curious about the nature of reality and consciousness, and have a high level of self awareness and the ability to accept things and not react emotionally stay the fuck away from psychedelics. It is not for fun nor is it a way to skip the hard work it takes to spiritually progress. It is a powerful tool that will bring any issues in your life or things you have suppressed to the forefront and will make you face them. Most people who have bad trips is because they weren’t ready to face those things and resisted instead of accepted. New perspectives can be challenging for some people.

Good to see that some of the negative sides of psychedelics get attention as well. People often think about psychedelics as something that can only help you and increase your knowledge.

Thats no the psychedelics problem, thats on the users frame of mind. Anything can be negative if you approach it from a negative position. If you actually look at any moment from a positive perspective, then you will have a positive experience. You get back what you put out. Its why happy go lucky people always luck in, because they are maintaining a positive mind frame regardless of the moment they are in. Reality is completely subjective.

[@Dremth]

I've never done DMT, but I know exactly what he's talking about. Even mild psychedelics or even just meditation can get you to that state. It's SO hard to describe, but it's like you're experiencing all of time at once. Your normal senses keep telling you that you're in the present, but there's a deep and profound feeling inside you that constantly makes it seem like you're experiencing every moment in the past, present, and future, in all possible timelines, from every possible perspective, all at once. So you end up with this disconnect, where your body is giving you signals of physical experiences in the present, but your brain is also almost "remembering" other things as if they're happening at the same time, even if they are things you have no real memory of. It's an incredibly trippy feeling, and it's something that really makes you feel deeply connected to the universe on a fundamental level, which can either be totally awe-inspiring or absolutely panic-inducing depending on your frame of mind.

[@bendahova6196]

I think I’ve experienced this and it was like a constant loop but like you said your are there experiencing everything but in the back of your mind you know that part of your soul is doing something so much bigger faster better. And it’s almost like the feeling of when a word is on the tip of your tongue. You know what the word is ( you know part of your soul is experiencing somethinguc greater at the exact same time your being present in your own consciousness).. and it’s almost a cycle where every so often both parts of my consciousness meet and I experience both and finally feel what that greater experience was but within a split second it almost feels like a dream you rapidly wake up from and forget the dream.. now you know your being consciously present but part of you is experiencing something mucin greater and for a split second you experienced it but now too does that feeling feel like a dream you can see and reach for but never touch and actually experience like a faint swift memory and within another split second your spin back around and sent through the patter again and it happens again

[@adamcross4382]

I have felt a lot of the feelings, but not from DMT or any drugs of that nature. I deal with a depersonalization disorder that generates a lot of these exact same thoughts when you’re in it and out of it. I would often wake up with a nocturnal panic attack and obsesses over a strange thought for days or weeks until eventually forgotten about it. It’s hard to explain, but I think some people with depersonalization disorder will get where I’m coming from. That feeling of crippling fear & disconnection from reality. To the point where you are at your breaking point. You either think, I don’t wanna live with this anymore OR I am losing my sanity and will eventually be in an asylum.

Sometimes people can't even explain what they have experienced, because words cannot describe it! DMT pulls you apart, I should say your brain taken to different dimensions all at once, this is why is so overwhelming and difficult to explain, sometimes!

I highly recommend not using psychedelics unless you're in a good place mentally and you have a sitter or someone experienced with you. You do not want to turn into Syd Barrett folks. But your brain can recover. Whole food, clean diet, meditation, and time.

I tripped on 5-10 grams twice a week for like 2 months, and I had a few ego deaths. I'm pretty much the same but now heavily into Buddhist philosophy and now a lot less pessimistic, but I already had a solid foundation on what reality was which was very fatalistic (no free will, we are completely powerless to our genetics and environment) and the Buddhist philosophy I looked at while tripping all day put it in a perspective that still allowed my fatalistic world view but with a happy spin on it to make my world view not completely depressing.

I used acid too much in highschool and I completely understand where he’s coming from. “What is this?” Where am I?” Who am I? What’s the fuck are emotions and where do they come from within my mind? What’s this ineffable substance that we call consciousness that I cannot escape?” All questions that of which I had never pondered before, it went deeper but this is merely a comment. It took me two years to be relatively back to normal. I continue to this day to be obsessed with knowledge. I also continue to try to understand the breadth and richness of the inner world I experienced back then, during and after those awakening trips. I’ll leave of with this: I remember thinking during the trip that “I will never be the same after this, I am fractured.” I haven’t ever been the same person, but I’m incredibly more wise and intelligent than the child that I was.

[@Hexnilium]

I'm not denying the ethereal, divine, spiritual, mystical, and other attributes of your experience and perceptions, but I think some of what you experienced can be explained as neuroplasticity induced by the hallucinogens, and at the time when you were really questioning everything in a fixation beyond the typical philosophic and paradigm altering experience of adolescence and entering adulthood you were most likely experiencing some HPPD from overuse of the substances. There's a fatigue going on in the inhibitory function of a brain to prevent the mind from being purely in a dream or uncontrolled hallucinatory state 24/7 and basically somewhat "grounded". This is relaxed during dreams and similar functionality of relaxing the inhibitory system causes hallucinations to occur when under the influence or under stress or during sensory depravation. In short, what you describe is somewhat scientifically understood from a physiological/neurological standpoint, and also at the very least categorized by a psychological/psychiatric / cognitive scientific perspective. The drugs induce a state of neuroplasticity that allows your brain to rewire to a certain extent, so you technically are different. My suggestion would be to try to look at the positives from your rewiring as a sort of enlightenment and to avoid fixating on any negative outcomes from it. I'm typing this out not just for you but everyone else that might read this and resonate with their own experiences. What has happened has occurred and there's very little chance of going back, but you were also given special perceptual powers that you can utilize to your benefit. If anyone is still experiencing distress or contemplating things as discussed in this interview, seek out help from medical professionals. Find out if HPPD is occurring, or if other conditions are what you are experiencing. There are some treatments and therapies that might work, and talking about it and categorizing it with labels will help in processing the distress.

And about an hour later it would build back up. Constantly made me rethink reality

After studying Hinduism for 15 years, I think the reason westerners have a hard time with feeling the same stuff that quantum physics teaches us, is because of being raised in a religion (monotheistic, Abrahamic, controlling instead of freeing). Hindus and Buddhists are usually taught these scientific style enlightenment aspects as part of natural learning and experience, so it’s not shocking (or needed really) to experience it with psychedelics.

At 6:40 Neil describes pretty much exactly what I went through after a series of 5 g mushroom trips. I did several years ago. After the final 7 g trip, I had what can only be described as a religious experience where my psyche reverted to how I used to be before I let the world change me. I was “pre-psychotic” for a month and felt very touch and go with what I could handle on a day to day basis. But as my psyche healed slowly, as the months went on, I became effortlessly more generous and conscious of how my actions and intention affected everyone around me. I felt true curiosity and wonder again after years of being comparatively dead inside, love felt sweet again, my own company was good to be in after a decade and change of hating myself. I put myself through the ringer with all of those trips with the intention of trimming the spiritual and emotional fat around my psyche, intuitively I knew that I had to put myself through this ordeal to become a better version of myself. Lord oh Lord, did it kick my ass, but it was worth it.

That's the point man, MUSHROOMS/Ayuausca is supposed to "HEAL" you in many different ways & sort of "clean" the dirt & junk out of your mind so you can think, feel, & be creative again. Its really a very remarkable thing to be able to do, using just a medium dose of magic mushrooms! Pure, 100% natural, organic medicine. No need for junk pills & poisonous drugs from the pharmacies, to be taken every day.

In March of 2001, I took 25 hits of acid, drank 8-10 beers, and smoked pot.... I crossed the Great Divide, yanked the eyelid off my third eye, opened myself up to the entire collective unconscious... Whatever you want to call it Basically I overloaded myself. I immediately started having panic attacks, I could not even drive 5 minutes to where I worked. I couldn't cope faz the overload of reality I was experiencing. I was also stuck with constant visual hallucinations. Like parallel lines would wiggle in my peripheral vision, Not the bullshit made up stuff like " I saw a pink elephant" I found that the only way to cope was to drink extremely large amounts of alcohol, and I basically stayed drunk 24/7 until my pancreas exploded. It's been 23 years now, and I'm still not 100% I'd say I'm back to 80 to 90% of my old self. You know after you're halfway through a haunted house and you've been jump scared a few times, you're walking around crouched over nervously expecting the next jump scare.... That's how I feel 24/7, like death itself is going to come around a corner and jump out at me It's like the world is muted. Once everything's been turned up to 11, going back to 5 just is underwhelming. I'm not depressed, I'm not super happy, If you came to my door and said "hey I have $100,000 for you here", I would just be like "oh okay thanks" Be careful out there guys

If you died right now are you a 100% sure you’d go to Heaven? It's because you have sin all people have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. What is sin? Sin is essentially any bad thing we've ever done. Because of sin this is is the punishment “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭21‬:‭8‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Jesus who is God in heaven came down to Do u know why you have to be saved? Do u know the story of Jesus? (If yes skip next step) if not do next step. God came down to earth as a man. Lived for 33 and a half years. He never sinned his whole life. Eventually some people got jealous of him and got him convicted of phony charges. He got crucified on the cross. Died. Was buried for 3 days then he was resurrected by his own power. Do you know why Jesus went through all this bloody mess for us? Remember how I said we can't go to heaven because of your sin? The only thing that can wash away your sins in the blood of Jesus Christ “But God shows his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬ ‭KJV‬‬ God did all that to save us from hell "Much more than, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭9‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Ephesians 2:8-9 “We’re saved by Grace through faith which is not of ourselves it is the gift of God not by works for fear any man should boast” Salvation is not by good works like “water baptism, attending church, any good thing you do” “For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭7‬:‭10‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Feeling godly sorrow leads to salvation “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭9‬ ‭KJV‬‬ All you gotta do is tell God out loud with your mouth you feel guilty and sorry for being a sinner. Then you just gotta tell him in a prayer. “Dear God I repent as a sinner. I believe Jesus is God who died buried and resurrected I accept his sacrifice for my sins I accept him as my lord and savior” But know just repeating these words won’t save you. You must genuinely mean them from your heart.

For me, the most profound benefit I have seen from psychedelics has been a broadened perspective. I find it easier to relate to others, understand their perspectives, understand myself, and I feel a stronger connection to the world around me. I also feel things more intensely. Like if emotions were colors, they are more vivid colors now than before. My experiences have included psilocybin and lsd a handful of times spread out over long periods of time. After my first experience about 19 years ago, I had the exact same feeling about my experience as they described in this episode. The experience was like reformatting my hard drive and installing a fresh/clean OS. I went sky diving for the first time in 2022. The experiences of sky diving and taking psychedelics to me feels similar in approach. You can imagine what either experience is like, but unless you actually do it, you will never truly comprehend....not even close. They both have possible risks participants must consider and weigh beforehand but the experiences are unlike anything else. I feel anxiousness and excitement leading up to a psychedelic trip similar to how I would feel before jumping out of a plane. They are both very intense experiences. But, unlike the 5 minutes journey back to earth skydiving, these psychedelics will take you on a wild 8-12 hour ride within yourself while stepping at least one foot outside of your previously normal standard perception of reality.

I saw another comment that put it quite simply; you are pretty much rolling the dice with psychosis purely for a bit more perspective on existence. I feel like my perspective has widened just about enough from smoking weed for 9 years since I was 17. I used to want to do LSD and psilocybin, but realised after a few bad nights from smoking too much weed around a year into it, and the effects on my thoughts for days afterwards, that I cannot handle the potential of fucking my mind up just for a bit more perspective. Perspective is one thing, but the actual tangible quality of a sound mind is worth more, in my humble opinion. I still smoke weed now. Why? I don't know. Just out of habit, I suppose. But I'm not gonna pretend that with the reality of probably getting engaged and hopefully married to my girlfriend soon, and having a secure job that I need to do well in to make a good life for myself, I'm not gonna bullshit myself into thinking that broadening my mind more is a good thing, or continuing to get stoned for no reason is a good thing. The really ironic thing is that it was Joe and Eddie's long conversations on the podcast years ago discussing smoking weed and doing psychadelics that got me in the mindset of "I wanna try this". Thankfully I just stopped at weed and went no further, and I'm realising now that the weed has run it's course for me. I could probably do with the occasional hit every now and again, but not 3 joints every evening for no reason. I guess what I'm tryna say here is don't disregard your sanity and hold on what you know matters, as that is more valuable than experimenting with the unknown and broadening your perspective.

Congratulations Neil. You are officially a multidimensional human being. You're describing most days of my life since 2005. No DMT or Ayahuasca necessary. It often felt like being on the verge of a psychotic episode in the beginning, although it's rare these days.

I took a little over 4grams of mushrooms and I went through the same thing. One week after i had one of those flashbacks/reactivation and been going through it for about a year. I remember the 1st couple months it felt like a barely got through the day everyday. 1 year later i feel fantastic and I literally feel like a new person, i still deal with a bit of anxiety but nothing that I can't handle. The end result was worth it but man was the post-anxiety one gnarly road I don't wish it upon anyone.

[@uunn1ttyy]

What he calls dmt flashback is a kundalini awakening.. it's your life force rising and opening you to the point there is no separation. the thing is, in the beginning after these experience is the EGO desperately tries to get grip again. Especially when you are a person who needs to be in control. When u cant fully surrender.. allot of the time it results in ego inflation. Enlightenment is a blessing for the ones who are ready for it but a nightmare for those who resist it and are not. It's peeling layers... until the point you know that the real you is. the all. The collective conciousness..

[@heidikeller50]

I understand what you are saying (mostly by amateur researching), some personal experience. For something to be gained, something must be lost. I remember crying for the loss. Spiritual disciplines prepare a person for years through discipline and daily practice. It must be such a sacrifice to allow the Kundalini to rise, one must need to be so ready...

[@keepitlowkey3053]

I agree. I felt exactly this when doing bath salts.

[@denisla3546]

Or it could just be psychotic brake there's that also... if it dosnt benefits u to survive better in this life right now and not lose grip on reality u can call it whatever i call it psychosis...EGO is keeping u alive my friend ,woo woo people are demonizing ego too much its not a bad guy its part of u like it or not..

[@ge0metr1xx]

A flashback is not a kundalini awakening. Not at all the same.

[@matthewguzda4075]

Funny thing, I was on shrooms one time starring at the stars on a cold clear night and kinda realizing how the stars are all in a depth of a field. They weren't just a big dipper one star next to another but appeared as the big dipper from our perspective but that in reality they are all closer and further away. I should say that it's like seeing and knowing something you're whole life but then one day you look at something and see it in a new way . You're way of seeing something you've seen forever becomes different. You pay attention a little more deeply. We filter out so much of the world around us because we must focus our minds on whatever task at hand that the experience with shrooms kinda free your mind from.

[@BenRichards-kh7bk]

You just described an interesting thing everyone does but no one knows they are doing. Perhaps the stars are just there, Or, are they for our viewing?

I'm so confused about this topic. I just started taking gummies to help me sleep and I'm sleeping better. I can't wrap my head around taking stronger mind altering medications. I would be too afraid of the unknown reactions I would have. I'm happy he made it through, but 18 months of anyone's life is a long time.

[@MichaelSkibitybados]

The state that he mentions he was in after the trip sounds like depersonalisation/derealisation/dissociation. I myself experienced this for years and definitely at the beginning it was a lot more intense. That feeling of complete disconnect from the world, yourself and everyone around you. Even visually, you’re not hallucinating but you feel like you’re looking at life through a screen, it’s really difficult to describe.. and then all the existential thoughts that come along with it e.g. life’s meaning, the point of all of this and how it’s even possible. I’m out of it now but I can truly say it was a terrifying time and deeply uncomfortable. Just my thoughts and experience

Acid-use played a role in my older brother's first psychosis hospitalization many years ago. Memories of my childhood NDE accident still pauses me from making that possible state of chemically induced parallel awareness. I enjoyed reading all of Carlos Castenada. Meanwhile, chemists and agriculturalists have made incredible advances with quality of life issues to help with disorders that may be unavoidably in our gene pool or from accidents and those unforeseen's. Perhaps it's also helpful to surround ourselves with folks that we may perceive as grander than ourselves, all the while contributing to the enjoyment of those times well spent. Thanks for the video. It is what it is, and this one triggered some fine memories, and for what this read may be worth.... In short and like so many, I've had appreciations of abundance many times, to give and receive thanks to the strength within gratefulness. ;)

Part of why a sound meditative practice is essential to both, well meditation, some powerful spiritual practices and some of the osychedelic ones. You learn to be able to observe calmly, stay rather impartial and understand that even unbearable is bearable step at a time, since you're bearing it. Highly recommend at least a simple meditation protocole and breathing exercises, either the simple brrath focus or some more advandec brrsth work like Wim Hof's or even some more traditional Buddhist or Hindu practice.

I recently had what I now know was a temporal lobe seizure. I had this incredible vision while sitting in my car where I was standing out in front of a school (like a daydream that completely overtook my awareness), & the crazy part was the overwhelming sense of familiarity (De Ja Vu). I couldn’t BELIEVE that I had forgotten about this place that I’d been to a million times before, it was like I was back home for 30 seconds, & then brought back to the matrix of my miserable life. You tell yourself that it’s a dream that you’re remembering, because you have no other frame of reference. The feeling of recognition about this place was so amazing. It’s happened to me 3 times, & just before I smelled the oddest smell each time, I thought my cars engine was burning up.

I had a dmt flashback just rubbing my eyes really hard. It was pretty wild. Just looked like flashing lights and shapes forming from a faded shade of light gradually increasing focus into a sharp looking kind of shattered glass and the lines forming like a sort of electricity

[@LitPenguin713]

Yea I use to do that as a kid. It’s just eye pressure u can push on ur eyes while closed not long it’s not good lol but u see crazy shapes and colors. Since I been doing shrooms the visuals are crazier but it’s normal u can do that anytime. I’m not sure u can call it a flash back. When you look at the bright sky and see things flying around with open eyes sober that’s a flash back lol.

Please elaborate. How did you not "feel normal?" What did it feel like? I kinda know what you mean with shrooms but DMT is a whole different level, or so they say

Jeez buddy. Its intense but you're being a bit dramatic

[@deepfiix]

@@mifegreen5960 Its feels like peeling back the face of reality and seeing what is behind it. If you imagine a painting and you rip the painting off the frame and you see what is behind the painting. Reality feels the same now, I saw what was behind reality and now I can't go back to normal. Nothing feels real anymore, even my own reflection in a mirror makes me trip out.

His 18 months are my last 28 years. I took the right (I did know nothing by the time) amount of mushrooms in August 1996 and since then my life has been funny and very intense. Timewise, experience-wise, love-wise etc. Actually it just fixed open my heart and my mind as it used to be until just before the esperience happened. It was hard at the beginning, but then quickly I got used to it. Strict probasketball discipline, wild parties, free travels around the world and loving friends and girlfriend made it possible. Very quickly. This means that now that I'm 50, in this single lifetime I lived various lifetimes and it feels like I'm still a child. By the way I successfully played pro basketball for 20 years, traveled around the world, help to raise two healthy boys, five of their childhood years in India, and still getting surprised by anything, anytime I aloud it to happen...be brave, talk to the plants and stay free

Dispair is the feeling he is trying to convey. I’ve felt that during a trip. Unfortunately it was on shrooms, so I knew it was going to last a while. I resolved to just lie motionless and wait for it to pass and it seemed like an eternity. It made me physically sick. The mind trauma lasted for months. DMT with a trusted friend brought me out of the gloom and now I don’t do any mind altering substances.
