Consequence................

I have previously written about the origin of the name Furzl, Furzl reflecting a sound I heard while hallucinating thanks to the ingestion of LSD.

Being clean for perhaps 10 years, acid flash backs have become less and for the most part have occured in the comfort of my bed. I can ride them out no harm done.

I was somewhat taken by surprise this morning at my desk, when I started seeing a colourful flickers across my screen that seemed to spread out to the sides across my desk over my phone and up the wall, on the other side across my desk and onto a collegue. I could not see the characters on my screen to carry on typing. By the time the metallic taste crept into my mouth it dawned on me what was happening.

Understanding that not every trip feels good, I felt like utter crap, completely out of myself and dysfunctional. Everything became too bright and too loud. I switched off my screen and shut my eyes. that killed the brightness but not the sound or the colour.

Thankfully I am busy with month end functions so people tend not to disturb me.
A collegue who hung out in his youth at the same respectable establishments I did, did notice me and took a frighteningly accurate guess at why I looked like did. He then offered to put on some appropriate psychedelic music. Sick man.

I feel normal again now. A bizarre surreal experince of perhaps twenty minutes of office life. Just exhausted and craving sweetness. I hope I don't experience that again.

I think I have a renewed regret for indulging in chemicals.
