Okay, I've been smoking for a couple of years, and I always used to love it. It just made me happy as hell, content with my life, etc.
Try to follow me while I describe these effects to you, as they're the paranoid rantings of a stoner, so I'm sure this all seems a bit excessive, but your reassurance that this is normal could help me greatly.
Recently, I've started to notice some weird effects, and they've been carrying over into my real life.
These effects aren't simple, but I'll explain them as well as possible:
1. World becomes broader. I'm forced to take everything around me in. Normally, I'll be able to focus on one thing in my field of vision, and that thing becomes clear and everything else is easy to ignore. When I smoke, I'm forced to pay attention to everything, all of it becomes clear. Colors are intensified, interior decoration makes sense, rooms give off *vibes* that effect my mood.
My vision also seems to zoom in. I suppose this is because I constantly wear contacts
2. Sounds become much more clear. I can easily hear the tones in people's voices, and I can pick up on the smallest sounds.
In my home, there are usually at least 3 tvs on, when I'm sober, I sit in my room and I'm oblivious to everything else, but when I smoke, I can hear all 3 tvs, any conversations that are going on, etc.
3. People's actions, facial expressions, voice, all evoke a *vibe*. A vibe allows me to look at the person and read into their actions, how they're feeling, see their values, etc. to the point that everything the person says becomes more clear, because I can see their reasoning behind it.
4. Physical feeling is intensified. I can sense every little movement in my body, the surface I'm on, etc. This makes getting comfortable very hard.
5. Stupid mistakes become blatently obvious. Little things, like taking my shoes off and leaving them on the floor, rather than a mat, make me feel like an idiot, and I wonder how often I do that in sober life and never notice.
All of these effects lead me to call being high "Hyper Reality". It's weird, sense none of my friends seem to experience this. The weirdest part is that it sometimes carries over into my real life, making everyone around me seem incredibly stupid.
Other Stuff:
I get really paranoid, because I feel everything on/in my body and things around me, I sometimes get the notion in my head that I'm acting ridiculous, farting over and over, pissing myself, etc. None of this has ever happened.
I can experience closed eye visuals whenever I choose
I'm fairly baked for at least 7 hours after a good smoking session.
The interesting thing is, Acid makes me feel the same way, only I feel complete euphoria the whole time, I'm never confused by the intensified world, I just feel like I understand it better, and I talk a LOT more. Hallucinations on acid are very slight, unless I smoke weed with it. I actually notice that I sometimes hallucinate more with just weed than just acid.
Shrooms, on the other hand, I experience no intensifying, it's actually more like the world is dulled down, and the hallucinations come from my mind's inattention to the details.
Are the effects of weed for me normal?
Should I be worried that I experience these, and there's a history of schizophrenia in my family? Why would I hallucinate more on weed than I do on acid?
