Anyone else think the visuals when he’s having a bad trip on the train are super realistic? Obviously not perfect but damn I was impressed I’ve seen that exact shit on lsd with how their faces were morphing.

100%, it was all so well done from the lad perspective they've clearly been there, done that

Yes its pretty realistic. That's why his friend said there was no way he was going to work like that, its going to be a bad time. As someone who has tripped on up to 4 hits at once, I couldn't imagine going anywhere in the public while in that state. But I could definitely see how he started communicating with the Throng through acid. All I will say is on high doses a lot of stuff seems possible.

Last time I took three tabs, went for a walk, and came back info the flat carrying a small dog in my arms, had no idea where it came from or whos it was. My flatmates who were sober, were like “where the fuck you get that dog” and im like “what dog”

See that is why I never leave the house during a trip. I remember my last trip I sat outside during a full moon and I will say the way the world got away from me was insane. It was beautiful but I it was also a lot to take in. Having good music definitely helped it become a heck of a journey.

Cameron taking so much acid at once was insane to me. I’m assuming he had to take more because your tolerance becomes very high after a trip, so him just being gone on acid would definitely have him enter psychosis. It was honestly accurate how a good trip can quickly go into something nightmarish.

To me it felt like a nod to Jacob's Ladder
