In the moment It was mostly concerned with the task at hand, which was usually drawing, listening to music and adoring the funky visual effects (no halicunations tho). But the most specific thing that came out of it was changed relationship with some of my friends.
One of them was, for instance, quite annoying. I seem to be quite sensitive to the stuff, meaning that I was the first one "in" and the last one "out". He was the kind of guy to tease people a s a joke. It annoyed me before, but during the trips I finally realized how immature and annoying that stuff became. He was joking about me while I was in a vulnerable state and expected maturity from the people around me. The changed perspective meant that I finally got to look from the outside in and determine that I maybe should disengage from the relationship a bit.
It's not that I wouldn't recommend others to do it. I just won't do it again because I now realize how much this kind of stuff kan really affect you. As long as you're in the right headspace it can be a very cool experience. I still remember, after hours of chill music, how we all suddenly fell silent after an intense build-up followed by a heavy DnB drop. It felt physical, like I was suddenly pushed into the couch by the bass and couldn't get out. Not sure if I'll ever experience music in that way again.
