LSD was the most exhilarating, life-changing experience of my life

Last weekend my friend came over and we took 4.5 hits of LSD on each side of our tongues. She has never done it before, and I have done it a total of 5 times before. We were excited and nervous, but something told me that this trip was going to be different. <br><br>We were inside the house for the first 2 hours and it was just like any other trip. The visuals were intense, I was numb, and I thought it was the peak. We stayed inside for another 2 hours, and suddenly the visuals became even more intense. I didn't feel my legs or my body. It was insane. We decided to go out and take a walk to the beach. <br><br>The first 15 minutes of being outside, I was extremely overwhelmed. I felt like I was seeing the world for the first time. The visuals and the colors were unlike anything I've ever seen. Everything was so beautiful. I wasn't sure how I felt until we reached the beach. <br><br>Looking out to the ocean, I realized that I'm not scared of anything. I'm not scared of death or of anything that life throws my way. I realized how truly grateful I am for the life that I have. I felt like I can do anything I set my mind to, and that I am so proud of myself for how far I've come in life. I felt just so grateful and in awe of life. I felt whole. Everything made sense, and I understood the world. I understood how things work, and the basics of how the world came to be. I realized that life is so short and fleeting. That's why we must live every day to the fullest. It all makes sense. I felt like I knew everything. I'm not scared of anything. I feel like I can do anything. <br><br>I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, the comedown is fucking hell. The first hours are fine but then you truly feel like you've been sober for 5 hours. It's awful. Very hard to function. I was dead. <br><br>I'm now feeling more and more like myself. I'm back to doing my daily tasks, and going through my daily routine. But I feel like I'm coming back to things as if I'm exploring them for the first time. I'm seeing my clothes, my makeup, my shoes in a way I never have before. I'm taking the time to appreciate them, and enjoy the simple things in life. It's nice. <br><br>I know that it's going to take time, but I'm excited for what the future holds.
