If you are still, then it would be lying to convince you otherwise.
Reality is the hallucination we choose to believe is real. We get reinforcement from those around us that the hallucination is the "real" one, not knowing that their hallucination and ours are completely different.
And of course being wilfully oblivious that right behind our hallucinations where we can't see is the empty void
Those around us are part of our hallucination. Just me all the way down.
9/11 was the start of the downfall. It really has become that ridiculous.
That nots how acid trips work, I don't believe you.
Fair
Don't mind them, Rocket Man, they do everything at an old master's pace. 🐌 They'll get there, eventually. You goan nah, catch those stars.
Acid doesn't take 20 years to metabolize. :)

"The half-life of LSD is 3.6 hours, which means it takes about that amount of time for half of the dose to be cleared from the bloodstream.4"
So, say you took a typical dose of 25μg to 150μg, 3.6 hours later you have 1/2 that... 12.5 to 75. Another 3.6 hours later, 6.25 to 37.5.
After even just a few days it would essentially be nothing. It's no longer detectable in hair past 90 days.
Never looked into the half life but first time it took like 6-7 hours to see the ceiling swirl nicely. I wouldn't assume many days lasting though. The wired framed mech I wanted to see out my 3rd story window at like 4am was beat though, especially when I made it walk back and forth.
But after many times, including after seeing the Teletubbies sun face randomly (actually not even the most awesome hallucination that trip), after 12 hours I was mostly sober.
Other time I recall was about 10 hours after first dropping went to a rave and got home,I saw some fun colours in the shower water, into infinity between the tiles, then yelled a Madeline cartoon cause they left their luggage 3 scenes before they checked in and had it next to them again..then went to bed and was all tired later cause my sleeping schedule was mixed up.
I wouldn't think it last longer than say 12 hours unless other factors are in play.
Edit forgot to say, most of my acid trips I saw no more than stucco ceiling swirling for a hallucination. So don't take these experiences as standard...well maybe the watching that Madeline episode that was stupid continuity but expected for a tv show made for kids.

Actually, I'd rather YOU convince me it isn't.
If you feel like you're starting to come out of it, bring us back there with you.
Luckily you would have never existed or only exist as some pseudo version of yourself here.
So I may shed my mortal flesh and exist as a shadow being upon the tapestry of the mind of another?
Sure yeah, I'm down
Fuck that, I'd ask if you have more.
so if you are still tripping, how so we try and convince you you're not?
that doesn't sound nice lol
