Back when SWIM was 17 he was talking to his heavily-medicated friend one night. Overly-paranoid hypochondriac parents this guy had. 3 different psycho meds he was on. SWIM and he were discussing deep stuff, meaning of life, deep philosophy. 10-15 minutes after he'd popped one of his meds SWIM noticed the difference pretty explicitly. SWIM decided that experience was probably worth having once, so he copped a couple of each. Sadly didn't record the names on the bottles. The immediate effects were very hallucinatory, very disorienting. At one point in the woods SWIM kind of lost sense of gravity, up-from-down, that sort of thing. No euphoria, a little anxiety perhaps. The worst was yet to come. 2 days later, still pretty much there. Everything seemed.. blank. Almost pointless. Libido was decimated, trying to masturbate was pure frustration, except the chemicals didn't allow full emotions. On the other hand, just about any 'creative' activity like antique shop browsing was absolutely fascinating and met with enthusiasm. SWIM wondered if he'd just signed himself up for a new permanent lifestyle. Thankfully the effects subsided after 5 or 6 days much to SWIM's relief. SWIM guesses one of the drugs was Lithium as it was [b:dede83cbcd]de riguer[/b:dede83cbcd] in that era and would explain the emotionlessness. Any ideas what the second might be?
