Sick from a drug
I took a hallucenogen 5 days ago, and I think it's really messed me up. I researched it a lot before I did it, and it didn't seem to cause problems in anyone else or in medical studies.
But I feel so sick. My appetite is really inconsistent and food tastes digusting. I have constant headaches and I get disoriented really easily. I'm also having trouble recognizing familiar people. My emotions are weird too. I still get happy and sad, but really mildly.
I will never do it again. I'm too scared to go to a doctor about it. I'm afraid that I'll get sent to rehab, which is pointless because I only did it once and I'll never do it again.
So my question is, what do I do? Will I ever get back to normal, or did I _really_ screw up? Does anyone know how I might start feeling better?
Thanks in advance.

First, glad to hear you're doing better.
Second, I went to your 'diary' web site and I can see clear as day that you definitely have talent. You really should further your education in 'writing or journalism' something along that line if you're not already... Your description of your 'trip' was if I were in your shoes - i understood you. You're a good writer.
Hoping to read more from you,

Ok, first of all, you need to calm down. Don't get all hyper and parranoid and make yourself think that somethings wrong, otherwise thats exactly what will happen to you.
I think you took ACID ( blotter form ). Acid is very complicated, and shouldn't be taken by people that can be easily manipulated, that are parranoid, and/or have any mental issues including depression. Trust me on this - I've tripped over 500 times ( not bragging ), and seen certain "kinds" of people have bad trips because they couldnt handle the drug.
You're okay. The situation with your apetite will get back to normal w/in a week or so...so don;t worry about that or how food tastes.
As far as you saying you have a hard time recognizing people you know... seems like you had a pretty hard trip. You're reality was probably really bent out of shape while you were high yea? you probably also tripped for a good 12 hours or so. Try not to think about it... Drink a lot of Orange Juice, and take some vitamins. You're body/brain is just dehydrated and burnt right now.
My advice for you is -- yea -- don't trip again. Try to get a good 10 hr straight sleep. And most importantly you have to give your body good nutrition... Acid really drains a body man. Remember - Acid is a mind altering drug - it's not a joint, or a line of coke. You have to tell yourself everything is okay - to be okay. Got it?
Post a reply man --- i'll check up on ya.
Acid's no joke, but if you tell yourself it is --- then laugh it up, cause its just all so fucking hillarious.

talk to the person you got it from, i dont know what you took, so youd have to ask them if its normal and how long it lasts. you can also call an emergency room and ask to speak to a nurse run it by them you can tell them what you took without saying who you are. they can probably tell you if you need to see a doctor. also your doctor cant tell anyone that you tried a drug its against the law for a doctor to tell anything about a paitent's health. seems to me 5 days later is a long time to still be feeling off, so see what you can find out, but id really reccomend seeing a doctor. a doctor wont send you to rehab, they can only reccomend it to you. i dont know what you researched but far as i know any drug that makes you see crap that aint there is bound to have some side effects.

A doctor wouldn't send you to rehab unless you wanted to go, or you needed to desperately. It didn't sound from your question as if the drug you took was addictive, but you would know whether or not it was.
If it was addictive, then you're obviously suffering withdrawal, and you should go to a rehab clinic whether you want to or not, because the symptoms of withdrawal from some drugs can kill you, or leave you permanently damaged unless you're propperly supervised.
It sounds like perhaps the drug has triggered some kind of recessive psychosis, or medical condition that you were vulnerable to.
Aside from drinking a lot of water, and trying to flush it out of your system by doing sport, or just sitting around doing nothing while you drink more water the only thing you could do to help yourself out is go to the doctor.
Why are you scared of the doctor anyway? If you don't like your current doctor, go see a different one. If you're not going to ever do it again, then the doctor has no legal reason that they're ALLOWED to tell your parents, because you're not threatening further harm to yourself.
As I see it, you should probably be more afraid of what's going to happen to your body, and your life if you don't get treatment for what's going wrong as soon as possible.

it depends on what you took, and you don't wanna tell anybody, even though telling someone like one of your parents would be a good idea, and leaving your condition untreated can mess u up real good. So the best thing i can say is to tell an older person, or one of your friends that knows alotta about this crap. mmk
