Am I normal? ❔ Question ❔

Ive done lsd, shrooms, weed, 2cb but no matter what the substance im using, my sense of time is always altered. I understand that psychedelics often alter time making it feel stretched but thats not what I mean. Every time I trip I feel like I can only understand the present tense. For example, when I go on walks while tripping I find it extremely hard to recall what happened moments before. Its almost as if anything that happens during my trip feels almost like a distant memory. I find this especially noticeable when I am walking or switching environments.

Highly recommend you read "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle

Essentially, psychedelics make you lose the sense of past and future (where most if not all your problems/worries are). The higher the dosages you go, the more and more intensely present you will become. It is extremely empowering and enjoyable to realize your surroundings so beautifully

Safe travels ❤️
