  Yes. But, I’m sure the visuals didn’t help.

    To be fair they didn’t specifically say what he saw in the dark.

    Night patrol or machine elves. He saw what he saw.

      For example, a hypothetical, in low light the LSD has synapses firing so fast that one is very aware of every presence around them. But, everyone is a shadowy monster with glowing eyes. The color of their eye glow indicates their instentaneous level of hostility.

      The distortion of perception brings the subconscious to awareness. This is why hallucinogenics can sometimes be therapeutic. But, as the dose increases, so does the effect of the subconscious. Take too much and the perceptions no longer have much basis in reality.

      If anyone’s reading this and curious, don’t take LSD. There’s no escape from a bad trip. Try mushrooms instead. I keep a little around for when my head can’t reason out what the fuck my heart and ego are choosing.

        Listen up, buster, don’t you go trashing LSD just because you don’t like it. Many people, including myself, have had great experiences that, while different from mushrooms, were just as if not more profound while on LSD

        I used to live next to a big lake in Florida. One night while I was tripping, I walked out to the lake and shined my flashlight out on the water and saw hundreds of pairs of eyes looking at me. Figured it was the start of a bad trip and went back inside. A few days later (not tripping) I went back out with my flashlight and saw the same hundreds of eyes. Fucking gators.

        Mushrooms can give you a pretty bad trip as well, but at least it doesn’t last as long as acid. My advice for either one is make sure you have people around that you love and trust - being alone or being with strangers can be bad news.

        man the dark itself is a hallucinogen adding LSD and combat must be… one hell of a trip.
