LSD- a concept

Here is some more research I conducted on the use of LSD and its distortion which could be of great help to my concept.

  • Delusions
  • Visual hallucinations
  • An artificial sense of euphoria or certainty
  • Distortion of one’s sense of time and identity
  • Impaired depth perception
  • Impaired time perception, distorted perception of the size and shape of objects, movements, color, sounds, touch and the user’s own body image
  • Severe, terrifying thoughts and feelings
  • Fear of losing control
  • Panic attacks
  • Flashbacks, or a recurrence of the LSD trip, often without warning long after taking LSD
  • Severe depression or psychosis
Time perception: he sees himself first introduced to the girl 

Taken in a large enough dose, LSD produces delusions and visual hallucinations. The user’s sense of time and self changes. Sizes and shapes of objects become distorted, as do movements, colors and sounds. Even one’s sense of touch and the normal bodily sensations turn into something strange and bizarre. Sensations may seem to “cross over,” giving the user the feeling of hearing colors and seeing sounds. These changes can be frightening and can cause panic.

Possible production choices and themes:
  1. Denial – Mirrors, can't face the truth every time he turns away it keeps coming back. Putting the hand through the mirror, the girl appears and he's lost he doesn't know why Hess there. She is angelic. 
  1. Anger – Red, fire, gold, the denial is too heavy for them to keep in so they rage.this could be portrayed through a news outlet story on a tv. And the protagonist does not want to accept it. 
  1. Depression – Blue light reflected off of face 

Nicknames:
LSD Acid Battery acid Blotter Boomers California Sunshine Cid Doses Dots Golden Dragon Heavenly Blue Hippie Loony toons Lucy in the sky with diamonds Microdot Pane Purple Heart Superman Tab Window pane Yellow sunshine Zen 

The ability to make sensible judgments and see common dangers is impaired. An LSD user might try to step out a window to get a “closer look” at the ground. He might consider it fun to admire the sunset, blissfully unaware that he is standing in the middle of a busy intersection.
Many LSD users experience flashbacks, or a recurrence of the LSD trip, often without warning, long after taking LSD.
Bad trips and flashbacks are only part of the risks of LSD use. LSD users may manifest relatively long-lasting psychoses or severe depression.
