Discussion Users who have had psychedelic experiences, have you also felt like you lived you whole life like a retard?

I took acid, at first it was all very beautiful fractals, geometry, also some cool auditory hallucination of sounds that seemed to be from a radio from the 50s but then I started having close eyed images of myself but I was seeing myself as a stranger (maybe a sign of ego dissolution) and I looked at all of humanity and felt like everyone wasn't that different and I was just a narcissistic asshole for all these years for thinking that, then i got kinda desperate and started to think I was going to die

It took a few hours for the effect to completely wear off. In the final hours i was in the bathroom and I vomited a lot, i was still seeing some external hallucinations and patterns (which were really cool)
Then I started to experience anhedonia and a feeling that I had ruined my life by accessing knowledge that I shouldn't have or that I would be psychotic for the rest of my life.

But in the end this feeling only lasted a day, overall it was a good experience and gave me motivation

I did a lot of DMT last summer and the answer to your title is: no. But I do have other, long-lasting changes in my thinking and perception since then.

Do you think your neuro-divergences have been cured? Some people report this

I feel that without having done psychedelics

It's complicated but generally it feels like my social anxiety, aspie-like behavior and emotions in general are a little amplified.
