21. One thing about LSD

Is that I think the key thing is simply to hold on, at one’s core level, to the idea that you have taken a substance which is altering your perceptual mechanism. This may lead to having a different perspective on your existence from which you may have periods of valuable insight, or you may have periods of apprehensiveness or obsessive preoccupation with disturbing thoughts. The key, however, is to not let go of that little piece of you which knows that it will wear off in a period of hours, and that if you ride it out, you will be fine and can later reflect on your thought process.

This alternate timeline, like some bad episode of Star Trek, is annoying the fuck out of me. I have to wonder whether the version of myself that managed to swap timelines with me is happy with himself. Because, damn that guy! This is simply not wearing off fast enough.
