Hi (Mom?)
Heavy meth use can effect the brain physiologically, but since your medical tests were clear, let's not worry about that. That's what tests are for. A good result is a good thing.
Would spiking your meth with LSD make you 'trip' on it now? LSD is a very powerful hallucinogen and can induce severe states of dissociation - that's true. It also does induce altered states of consciousness which poses ongoing questions about what is real and normative for the individual. What is not true is that LSD remains in the body and can trigger flashbacks years after usage is stopped. LSD has a half-life of approximately 2 - 4 hours and then is metabolized by the body like any other chemical. A very small percentage of chronic users do experience HPPD, but the effects are not what you describe.
But, you're not even sure that your meth was spiked.
The mind is a constantly evolving, self-organizing system responsible for consciousness, subjective experience and information processing. At some point during your life you went through a lot of trauma, experienced a lot of problems because of it, and subjected yourself to drug use. This all shapes the mind. It is called Life and it's a wonderful experience.
You did not damage your brain and your mind will continue to evolve and respond to Life. Embrace your experiences and do not push back. Accept where you are, what you are and what you have.
I wish you all the Love for your all son... Brett
