I did LSD a month ago I have these massive panic attacks and i feel that i am dead or in a simulation. Can't really sleep either. I also see mild visual snow. What can i do to make this situation better? 

Thanks

Hello, 

You sound like you're in a tough place, I'm sorry to hear that.  This is a difficult disorder and everyones experience is a little different.  I tell everyone the same thing:

• Stop all drugs (even alcohol for a bit if you can) 
• Get as much sleep as you can 
• Exercise regularly even if it makes your symptoms worse
• Eat well 
• Stay busy with work/ school/ hobby etc
• Try not to worry 
• Learn to meditate if you can (this was really helpful for me) 
• If you're open to it, start praying to God (it doesn't have to be any particular religion and you don't even have to believe in anything just ask for help on your knees everyday.  I really believe help will come if we reach out)

I take it a day at a time, sometimes an hour at a time.  The emotional turmoil can be disturbing and debilitating.  However, you are on a good path.  Stay off drugs and your mind will have a chance to recover.   My advice to you is put your body and mind in the best possible conditions by living a healthy, mindful lifestyle.  Stay strong and stay positive. 

Take Care,

Nick
