How exactly do you feel when you get high? Discuss what happens to your psyche, etc. We all know we get hungry and laugh when we are faded, but what exactly changes in your mind that makes the world seem so different?

I smoke every day. On week days I usually just smoke a bowl, and I get in somewhat of a comfort zone. I get very focused. When I am sober, my mind will become distracted by anything; any thought will come up and I have trouble focusing on something like a homework assignment or a movie. When Im high, i can focus directly on something. I smoked a bowl at school on Friday and went back to class and began to study my vocab list; I aced the test next period. I was only looking at my vocab list, and didn't feel the need to be bothered by anything else. My mind becomes more radical, it uses stranger methods to express itself. I think of more grotesque and repressed thoughts when I am high, my superego doesn't kick in and make me feel guilty and restrict me from exploring arears of my mind like it does when I am sober.

Then there is that next level of high. I get even more introverted. I feel like I am in my own world, I seclude myself and have fun doing something mindless such as eating. I will look at my food and eat it, and just think of nothing. I'll catch myself thinking of nothing, too. Again, thoughts and fantasies become vivid, especially scenarios. I can sit down and just think of a story for a long period of time, and it will be as entertaining as actually reading a novel. I become the character. That's all in my mind.

Then, you start to get real faded. Now it isn't all just mind soup. When I start getting real high, I will zone out for maybe 2 minutes. I will be looking at something or thinking of something, then I will look around and come back to reality. Looking around feels like I just stepped out of a more action-packed situation. Coming out of my thought makes me feel like I just turned off a good movie, and then just sit there with the TV off thinking "what the hell was I doing just sitting there?". My thoughts become even more strange as my mind dips freely into my subconcious and preconcious. I will also begin to use my imagination (something I believe most humans fail to use) at this point. I was faded and walking around Target today, and I was imagining there was a small character to the side of me, following along me. The character is maybe 8 inches tall, a stick-figure, and it must jump from shelf to shelf and hang onto price tags and run along shopping carts to stay by my side. I walked around for like 15 minutes imagining that, and was thorouhgly entertained.

After that the world changes. I call this being "gone". I have a very specific definition for being gone. You definitely are no longer on the normal plain of existence; this is more then just being high, you're, well gone. The world looks TOTALLY different to you than it does to a sober person or someone who isnt as high. It's like looking at the world with a new set of eyes. The first thing I notice is everything seems smaller. I was sitting in my backyard, and I looked up and it hit me that the whole yard only seemed like it was half the size than it usually is. Furniture seems tiny, like I am in a picture. I feel like a giant walking around in a different, mini-world. This is when I laugh. A lot of people will laugh from highs under this one, but I need to be GONE to really bust up at nothing. I kind of lose my mind when I am gone; i dont have as strong as an imagination or subconcsious toughts like when I am little below this. When Im gone I just walk around in this new fascinating world, looking at shit. Its fucking cool, but the farther away you travel from Earth (anything beyond this point is just going further) you might freak out or get sick. Once I vomitted from being too high, it was an interested experience.

Thats just the mind affects. I can talk about being high all day. I have way more affects I try to explain, thats just the levels of how your mind and perception change.

How about you guys?
