How does it feel like to be under the influence of drugs? People who don't do drugs can never understand the feeling. Those who do drugs know it but they find it extremely difficult to explain. People use different kinds of recreational drugs from marijuana, cocaine, heroin to LSD to get 'high', which is a phenomenon of consciousness being altered. Of all the drugs, LSD is the most powerful hallucinogenic drug. A Swiss chemist named Albert Hoffman discovered LSD while he was working on a medicine to treat common cold.
What makes LSD (acid) different? It causes hallucinations. It completely alters the way your mind perceives things. The LSD experience or 'trip' is no less than a deeply disturbing horror story for an ordinary person. A typical acid trip lasts 10 to 12 hours.
A woman drew 11 self-portraits of her during her first acid (LSD) trip while a friend was there with her all the time. The pictures are an accurate depiction of hallucinations people go through when they are on drugs like LSD.
10.After 8 Hours and 45 Minutes
The lady wasn't satisfied with the previous picture. She wanted to draw a more accurate portrait of herself as seen through her eyes. She drew this one.
11.After 9 Hours and 30 Minutes
The psychedelic effects were disappearing quickly. She still didn't draw the eyes because she doesn't want the picture to look back at her!
