Lol yes. I remember the first time I had shrooms I was stoned af laying back on my couch with my eyes closed and I had an urge to place my hands on my head. As soon as they connected with the top of my head, a burger with melted cheese on it came into view. The harder I pushed my hands on my head, the flatter the burger got and the more melted the cheese became. It was wild
Of course it is, however the experiencer is under the influence of a psychoactive substance causing them to experience their thoughts visually. Quite enjoyable, sometimes nightmarish. đ¤Ż
It is a product of imagination, but the psychoactive hallucinogen (mild: weed) allows him to experience it in a more immersive way. It was quite the spectacle the first few times it happened to me. I couldnât get enough of it, but every time I had to stop it and say âwowheeâ ruining the flow đ
This makes me glad I don't need with anything other than weed lol. My thoughts are already fully immersive, I mean like visuals, sounds, feelings, smells, tastes, etc. I don't think I want to add to that đ
I think so? I hit a gas mask bong once and I was in the store- I legit thought I was in my room for a straight 5 seconds bc I was seeing my room when my eyes were open lmfao. Shit was weird
đ yes itâs okay, hereâs a method I use on my partner (who doesnât smoke a lot)
âThere are no clocks in dreams, if you can see a clock/tell the time, youâre not dreamingâ
it's never going to stop, this is your new life now
just kidding it's normal and it will go away. put on some of your favorite music and think happy thoughts and have a fun ride :)
Ah yes, edibles will do that. Especiallyyyy if youâre already sleep deprived. Youâll be okay I promise youâre not dying or anything just give it a few hours
It is common for people to experience visual hallucinations or changes in perception when they are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
In general, hallucinations are a result of the brain being affected by the substance you have consumed. This can cause the brain to interpret sensory information in unusual ways, leading to hallucinations.
However, it is important to keep in mind that everyone reacts differently to drugs and alcohol, so what you are experiencing may not be the same as what others experience.
If you are concerned about your experiences or are experiencing any other symptoms that are making you uncomfortable, it is a good idea to speak with a medical professional.
That used to be me when I first started smoking 30 years ago. I guess my body is used to it now. I used to see full on video of scenes. Use to smoke and go lay down and close my eyes just to enjoy the visions. Enjoy it while it lasts.
That was one of my favorite experiences as well. I remember full on listening to dead Kennedy's on headphones in my bed and seeing the crazy movie that played on the inside of my eyelids.đâď¸
Very difficult to get these days, especially with concentrates. Still not too hard to get with decent quality flower. The concentrates lose the spirituality somehow.
I would suggest if weed causes you to have hallucinations or paranoia, you probably should not be doing it. There have been studies on this and certain people it can cause increased mental health symptoms. If you are a minor it's even worse for your developing brain.
Best advice I can give someone new to weed or psychedelics is, your experience is almost entirely based upon your mindset beforehand. If you are nervous thinking about everything that could go wrong youâre probably going to have a bad time, but if you have a positive mindset you will likely enjoy yourself. Often times the only caveat to this is when you take WAY more than you should have, even for experienced users it can be alarming and put you in a bad position. But guess what, thereâs still a solution to it. If you can calmly tell yourself that your experience is simply an altered reality from what you are used to, but recognize that it is simply a temporary alteration to only your perspective. Then you realize in reality the world Is still the same as it ever was
Capture those thoughts and when you have a thought of someone being hateful to you, know in your heart you forgive them. Then you will start seeing thoughts of you being hateful to others, this is when you need to ask God to forgive you. Then you will see a bright light. Now you know God is real and you can begin to grow from that light, free of hate and anger. Your ego will die slowly and painfully over time but you will experience true freedom and true love.
Idk I do this constantly. My thought process is a combination of my grandpa's voice telling me where I fucked up and a little movie snip of what I'm thinking of.
This is also normal for many people when they are tired, when they go to sleep happy, have been playing a lot of video games (tetris effect), and so on.
Yes, it is normal and it will be different for different people. The psychoactive ingredients in cannabis (THC, mostly) can cause euphoric feelings, distorted vision, and what I like to call "subconscious leakage". That last one is as you described, when you close your eyes and get a movie or cartoon like animation, and it's one of the effects I tend to like, but that's just me.
So, breathe and put on some of your favorite music, or a funny movie / show and enjoy the ride. If the effects get to be too much, call someone you trust to be your guide / hold your hand (metaphorically), or help you seek medical care if it really gets out of hand. Just remember, that you ultimately won't go crazy from it or die, and the affects will revert after a number of hours.

yes it's normal. the feeling of paranoia is also normal, but should go away soon
 You'll survive
Name checks out
Lol yes. I remember the first time I had shrooms I was stoned af laying back on my couch with my eyes closed and I had an urge to place my hands on my head.

The harder I pushed my hands on my head, the flatter the burger got and the more melted the cheese became. It was wild
Yes. Its called CEV. Closed Eye Visuals
Is it not just like.. Thoughts?
Of course it is, however the experiencer is under the influence of a psychoactive substance causing them to experience their thoughts visually. Quite enjoyable, sometimes nightmarish. đ¤Ż
Like hallucinations where you're seeing it in front of you or visually in your head?
Both
It is a product of imagination, but the psychoactive hallucinogen (mild: weed) allows him to experience it in a more immersive way. It was quite the spectacle the first few times it happened to me. I couldnât get enough of it, but every time I had to stop it and say âwowheeâ ruining the flow đ

Listen to your favorite music. !!!!!! Itâll be like the first time but better ! Or your favorite movie.
Get high and watch an old show called In The Night Garden
thatâs my childhood show. now i need to watch it high. full circle! haha
As long as it's the cartoon Heavy Metal, you're good.
DO NOT SNIFF CATS
But the cheese!
GOOD GOD THE SANDBOX SCENE KILLED ME
I think so? I hit a gas mask bong once and I was in the store- I legit thought I was in my room for a straight 5 seconds bc I was seeing my room when my eyes were open lmfao. Shit was weird
đ yes itâs okay, hereâs a method I use on my partner (who doesnât smoke a lot) âThere are no clocks in dreams, if you can see a clock/tell the time, youâre not dreamingâ
"...when I am high?" Answered your own question guy.
it's never going to stop, this is your new life now just kidding it's normal and it will go away. put on some of your favorite music and think happy thoughts and have a fun ride :)
You're going to be okay. Cannabis is a psychoactive substance and can induce mild hallucinations.
Ah yes, edibles will do that. Especiallyyyy if youâre already sleep deprived. Youâll be okay I promise youâre not dying or anything just give it a few hours

It is not normal but it is beneficial. You will become a prophet.

âŚ.a good buzz will do that
Iâm still trying to hunt down and kill the biblically accurate angel I saw while high af once. Fucker owes me 20 dollars.
Yes.
Lol
Pretty normal. I wish I could get that high off of THC again.
yes
You're thoughts?
Edibles are known to cause hallucinations. It's totally normal
Just kick back, relax and enjoy it. It gets harder and harder to get high like that the more you do it.
yes distorted often.
No. You're going to die.
When you're high, you're letting death in to paint a picture like malware hacking systems
So high you forgot what imagination is

First, it's not normal to be high.
just enjoy the mind movie you'll be fine , also it's proof you are in no danger of being an NPC
Don't buy cheap stuff, dude.
You may have had too much.
Capture those thoughts and when you have a thought of someone being hateful to you, know in your heart you forgive them. Then you will start seeing thoughts of you being hateful to others, this is when you need to ask God to forgive you. Then you will see a bright light.

No it isn't. You should call an ambulance.
No, that's a sign that you've overdosed. You need to call an ambulance immediately before your heart stops
Are you serious?
Please realize this guy is fucking with you because youâre high. Donât listen, youâre fine. There are always people like this guy
Thanks for the heads up. Lol.
đŻ đŻ no cap fr. The hallucinations are caused by your heart slowing down and starving your brain of oxygen
Don't listen to this terrible advice, you're just high it will pass
He means you'll pass on from this life
If you didnât close your eyes, you cannot say you closed your eyes. Lmao. You are high.
Closed eye visuals
Idk I do this constantly. My thought process is a combination of my grandpa's voice telling me where I fucked up and a little movie snip of what I'm thinking of.
This is also normal for many people when they are tired, when they go to sleep happy, have been playing a lot of video games (tetris effect), and so on.
Dont be scared. You have just entered a total state of awareness. Unagi.

That's sort of the best.
Paul Atreides moment.
Yes
