Eesh.
Okay, so, this happened back in February, and I've been holding onto it, waiting for any possible residual flames to die down.

There is this one person who was on my LJ friends list. She also went to a couple IRC channels I frequent. A few years ago, she was ... shall we say ... unpredictable. Basically, she'd come on, and you could say the same thing to her on two different days and get completely opposite reactions, ranging all the way to screaming, bitter hysterics. I had a few minor altercations with her, all pretty much her fault, then she disappeared for about a year or so. She came back, was infinitely calmer, and much more pleasant to talk to, and everyone thought the change was for the better.

Fast forward a little bit, to this February. She makes a post about how she's contemplating trying acid, and two people express concern about this. She then proceeds to write a longer, somewhat bitchy post that completely slams said two people for being the slightest bit concerned. One of said original two posters, a friend of mine, points out that he's still concerned, and she pooh-poohs him. I step in, and pretty much everything blows up.

The names have been changed to One Hundred Years of Solitude characters mostly to protect the innocent and guilty, plus I felt like it. There were a few more comments, but I didn't have them in my log and said journal has since been deleted.

Whoa. Attitude much? Excuse anyone for giving a crap! I don't know if this is wanky...but it's definitely hard to tear yourself away from reading her horrid replies. She's like a road accident in a way.

Probably not a nice thing to say . . .

If she tries it, I certainly hope she gets a better trip than she deserves.

>>That comment was so laughable, I'm not even going to justify it with a decent response.>>

Punchworthy reaction. God forbid someone should care about your well-being. Even if you don't agree, goddammit, show some gratitude that someone actually worries about you.

Yes, I'm biased. I've had friends have bad - like really, REALLY bad - experiences with hallucinogens, though not LSD. Even so. I really hate the rude reactions to people who are being sincere.

And the friend I had? Most responsible drug user I ever knew. He knew EXACTLY what he was taking, down to the molecule. Unfortunately, it didn't mesh well with latent schizophrenia. And that wasn't accounted for.

Ugh, I'm done with my lame little rant. Things like this make me sad. I know that's lame, but they do.

Something similar happened to someone I used to know. He went on a Robitussin spree, not realizing that he was a latent schizophrenic. He spent a good long time in the mental hospital, and is still fucked up several years later.

She's a prize. Speaking of flashbacks, I'm having a few to a former *Nsync BNF right now.

Oh god that hurts my head.

I'm speaking, mind, as someone who'd be interested in someday, maybe, trying a hallucinogen ONCE to say I did, assuming I could find someone I trusted enough to watch me through the trip (God knows I've done it for other people)...but getting angry at people for showing CONCERN? Give me a bleeding break.

People that dumb don't have the mental stability a hallucinogen requires...

Anyone with an attitude like that won't be helped with drugs, other than the prescription variety.

Of course, being bipolar on medication, taking acid in my case is an extremely horrible idea.

Ah, don't you love those people that are like "Here, here is something I am pondering doing, and I want your opinions. Now keep in mind, if you give me the RIGHT opinion, you are a good friend, and thank you for your help. If you give me the WRONG opinion, FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU, I HATE YOU, HOW DARE YOU PRETEND TO BE MY FRIEND?!?!!?!"

Interesting. I encountered a person just like that. One of the many reasons I got tired of a certain IRC channel, because the person was just too much insane

Yeah how DARE those people tell her things she doesn't want to hear!

Really, call me Goody McTwoshoes if you want but if she does take acid and nothing bad happens what do you gain? Really you took a drug that might render you batshit insane and it didn't! Good for you here's a cookie!

If you want enlightenment aren't there better ways of getting it? Like reading or traveling?

All of this is IMO of course, please don't hurt me.
