This is extremely amplified when taking psychedelics
4 comments

To be fair, almost everything is amplified by psychedelics. It's like their primary effect is turning everything into some sort of feedback loop.

When I tried LSD, I'd constantly forget where I was in the middle of sentences, because everything happening in my brain made it feel like way more time was passing than was actually. As a result it was harder to recall the topic of the sentence because it felt like many many topics ago.

I would describe it as "an entire universe happening each instant". It was honestly kind of cool.

Writing was far easier, because I'd always be looking at what I've already written, rather than trying to rely on my memory of what I've spoken.

Yeah, I've walked from my living room to the back yard on mushrooms, and the change in mindset was like I'd flown to another continent.
I was about to say this. Walking into a different room can vastly change your entire experience for the better (or worse)

Whatever you do, don't look in the mirror.

do look in the mirror, don't panic, face your fears, and look away full of love.
Memory aside, the sum of the colors reflected around the room is immediately noticeable as you cross the threshold.
