Is it normal people think getting high is real?

I don't get this logic. You get high and know you are going to hallucinate. So why would people say they saw something unbelievable while high and assume its real.

    How do you know what you see normally is real?

    Ive seen lots of things high and never believed any of it was real. I mean unless you're causing serious brain damage with the drugs you're taking youd have to be an idiot to believe the moon is melting or that you're walking on a bridge made of a trolls braided pink and blue beard hairs.

    • So you are saying this is the after effects?

      • Depends on the drug. They all effect people differently. Usually people don't have long term after effects unless they use drugs a lot.

    I've done literally thousands of hits of acid since the 80z and have never mistaken mind-manifested things 4 reality. I have had persistant trails since 1985...

    You are assuming the mind of a person who's tripping is rational, I've tried lsd, trust me it's not.

    And I'll never touch that shit again

    When you are on drugs reality and fantasy is not a factor when you see colors flying through the air you dont think its real or just a hallucination you simple enjoy what you are seeing this is why people do them in the first place

    What makes you think every way to get high gives you hallucinations? Some drugs allow one to see and hear things which we don't notice when straight, and that is not hallucinating. Far from it. An open mind (or expanded consciousness, if you prefer) is not at all the same thing as a hallucination, nor does it lead to them.
    Sorry, wrong tree here.

        I guess not, but then again you did not mention any particular drug, so "You get high and know you are going to hallucinate." could mean you know nothing of what you are talking about and assume all drugs will make you hallucinate, right?

        • I was speaking of hallucinogens specifically. If you knew anything about drugs you would know hallucinogens is a category. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucinogen Just read the wikipedia. Dont have time to deal with your idiocy.

          • Stimulants(Uppers) and depressants(Downers) are another type but I am sure you wouldn't know anything about that either.

              "Stimulants(Uppers)" Really, stims are uppers, are you sure?
              "depressants(Downers)" Really, depressants are downers, are you sure?

            Did you mention them at all? I'll reread your post, hold on a second. Nope, no mention of "hallucinogens", here read it for yourself; "I don't get this logic. You get high and know you are going to hallucinate. So why would people say they saw something unbelievable while high and assume its real."

          It doesn't mean that. Do you really not understand the question? I think your just trying to be a troublemaker.

          • That is very clear. I was going under the assumption they were a troll since they do this type of stuff so often.

              Yes, a troll I think it is too. Just out to cause trouble. Troublemaker.

              With all the misinformation going on on this site regarding drugs, I thought, by your post, you were another ill informed person talking about all drugs. You certainly did not specify "hallucinogens" did you?
              So jump all over my back and call me a troll because YOU can't write a post that specifies what you mean to say. Good job of communication there Mr. poster.

            Post on the subject, don't post to me.
            Once again, what makes you think I give a flying fuck what YOU think of me?

              My question was to you, duh.

              Why don't you just admit that you misunderstood the post??
              It doesn't say that all drugs give hallucinations.

              I'm just pointing out that you're wrong and you should be grown up enough to admit that. You sound like an angry teenager.

    Nobody hallucinates on drugs. Nobody sees things that aren't actually there. Drugs distort what is there. Illusionate would be a better description. The 'illusion' may be that things are moving when they are not. The carpets and curtains frequently do this when under the influence of LSD. I mean the person is under the influence, not the carpets/curtains. Being chased by a giant mars bar? Maybe in your minds eye, but you would never hallucinate anything like this. If you do, its probably schizophrenia, or a tumor. Enjoy your drugs you crazy kids!
