Anyone ever witnessed someone get stuck in a loop on acid? Or any trip for that matter.
Month or so ago, one of my good mates double dropped at a free party and it was all good until we were chilling in a barn next door to the party. He started getting really stressed out about how we would get home and what we were going to do.
Took me a while to notice, being as bollocksed as I was (could barely even string a sentence together haha!) but he started going on a bit of a downwards spiral, asking what we were doing with our lives, saying it was all pointless and getting quite distressed. And then out of no-where he started saying he’d solved the universe, that we should walk forever until we find happiness. Over the next few hours I must have heard him repeat those few sentences hundreds of times!
It was surreal, like a switch had flicked in his brain and he was stuck in a constant loop. Then every so often you could see him come back for a few seconds and he’d say something like “I think i’m having a bad trip guys” and suddenly he’d be looping again.
It was a strange thing to see, especially considering how fucked I was, I never even knew it could happen before I saw it happen to him.
He’s all good now though, he just had a complete blank from the whole trip!
Peace :bounce_fl
I’ve not seen this from acid alone (nor ever experienced it), but it seems more to do with the set and setting and possibly the use of other stimulant drugs especially cathinones and MDMA combined or just tiredness.
Free parties are often some distance away from home and in unfamiliar surroundings, which can be fun when you are high on everything but what may happen is he is starting to come down and get the paranoia/dysphoria associated with stimulant comedown (as well as exhaustion/slowness of thought) and/or tiredness – hence the loop of paranoia / negative thoughts. Especially as weekends go quicker when you are on drugs and before you know it its Sunday afternoon and yet no one wants to go home even when really they should..
the first time i ever did acid i did it was with three other people at a festival (all newbies to acid), and we were all fucked, three of us decided to have another drop but my other mate ran off in terror at the thought of doing anymore. so a bit later on we’re all fucked im stumbling around the campsite and my mate who had ran off earlier came up to my and started shaking me like “OMG THERE YOU ARE IV BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU FOR AGES” and i could see he was clearly distressed so i was like yeah its cool man everyone is just down here, and he goes “can you see my tongue, ive swallowed my tongue” and he was putting his tongue out and speaking with a lisp, and i was like yeah dude its fine honestly. and he just was freaking out harddd. then we met up with everyone else and they were all being drunk and loud and jumping around my mate who had gone missing i was just like CHILL PEOPLE GIVE HIM SOME SPACE!! hahaha
Taking LSD and other psychedelics is all about set and setting as GL says.
You say he double dropped too so that would have been one hell of a come-up if it was some good acid. You never know though, could have been DOB, DOI, DOC etc. You can get looping thoughts on psychedelics, however, its usually caused by other drug interactions. Dissociatives such as Ketamine is famous for looping effects.
did he smoke weed? sends a lot of folk on a downward spiral whilst tripping.
also K like syconout said, did he have Ketamine?
Yeah I also forgot to mention, he’d eaten a sizeable rock of mandy earlier in the night, done a few bits of ketamine and it all went downhill shortly after we finished a joint.. Haha.
It was strange though, he was fine the whole time we were in the party, but as soon as we went to chill and go for a joint it went bad, like as soon as he had time to try and think properly it went downhill
I’ve seen people zone out like that before man, but only for a few minutes – even recall it happening to me many years ago, stood outside my mate’s house and I had this voice in my head saying ‘Ecstasy is a repetitive drug’ over and over again, which has a certain amount of irony to it!
I have seen looper with bruce willis. I don’t like bruce any more, he always looks like he doesn’t want to be there. Why doesn’t he just retire??

Bill Baily tells a funny story about when he took acid, and just got caught in a loop where he couldn’t stop thinking ” that chair, the legs look like a Z, the chair .. it’s a Z .. ” for abotu 12 hours lol
he said he didn’t enjoy acid much .. lol
I think I know what you mean, I think I had something like that when I took a ton of acid once and i was convinced I was gonna die kept saying “i’m fucked and really anoying everyone.
My usual loop is thinking i’m stuck in the trip forever, but happens almost every time so i’ve kinda learnt how to deal with it.
Is the whole trip not one big loop? :crazy:
No fucking way man this happened to me on saturday, never happened to me before, had a normal amount of the same batch of cid, nothing else with it, but suddenly weirded out massively, freaked out my friends, they got worried and I took it to mean I’d upset them, I went into a downward spiral of fear and paranoia, thought I’d been dumped by the universe, practically had to be pinned down and fed valium. Cant fathom why. I’ve cained it so much harder in the past.
