One of my stranger delusions

I took LSD when I was in my teens. I had good trips and a few bad trips. The last time I took it I was 19 and I had a nightmarish trip. I took too much. Then, 6 months later, enter schizophrenia. I believe the bad trip triggered my disease but I also believe I would have become schizophrenic eventually anyways whether I took the acid or not.

But for the next year, I thought could feel the LSD in my brain. It seemed like a little piece of something was physically in my brain, kind of like a like a sliver or a piece of tin foil. But I felt that if I worked at it I could get it out. It took me a year but I worked out that little piece of matter.

Yeah, Syd Barrett was pretty much the same that way. Only he wasn’t just doing acid, it was also pot, I think!

I think “Animals” is underrated. You never hear anything about it.

I sometimes wonder if I wouldn’t have cracked up so badly if I hadn’t joined the army. I think the alcoholism would have gotten me no matter what I did. It might not have happened as soon, which means I would have had more to lose if I succumbed to alcohol later in life. The schizophrenia probably would have gotten me no matter what I did also.
