I took lsd in my dream

[Joscha]

Hi guys! I have a difficult relationship with psychedelics, specifically lsd, ever since a horror trip a few years ago. Yesterday night in my dream, I was visiting dream Leo for some time and he offered me lsd. I find it interesting that he was the one who challenged me in the dream to face my fear of lsd (but then again he brought me onto psychedelics). He was super friendly and kind btw. I took it and became very nervous (I multiple times checked in the dream that I had my emergency benzo just in case, and I did. in retrospect I love how the dream allowed me to have this safery net, instead of pushing me into panic). The nervousness was however very bearbable compared to the usual anxiety attacks I get from real psychedelics in waking life after taking psychedelics. I think its because I didn’t really feel bodily sensations in the dream the same way (heartbeat sensations always trigger me). Nothing much trip wise happened for a bit, but then something fascinating happened. I was talking to dream leo about something unrelated, when suddenly I woke up. But the waking up from this dream was different than usual, in that I was never before so aware of the transition between dream and waking state. I completely felt the shift in consciosuness. The waking up was quite sudden. I could describe it like the way when you’re waiting and suddenly you feel the psychedelic kick in and raise your consiousness. I think I partly understand now why people call spiritual insight ‚awakening‘. The feeling reminded me so much of mystical trips in the past and also the way leo describes it in his video ˋwhat does awakening feel like‘. I really wonder how it works that the waking up felt so different from usual, as I didn’t take anything outside of the dream.
 

I just felt like sharing that story. Feel free to share your dream psychedelic experiences too, or other strange beautiful dream experiences!

Also thank you dream leo for taking me on a trip! And if you read this, thank you waking leo for opening me up to psychedelics. Its a difficult journey for me but even so I am very thankful for the experiences it has given me.

Very unique post....question....if Dream Leo tortured you....and turned into some demonic alien that strapped you to a table probed you anally for a million years while screaming at the top of his lungs that everything is love!!!.....Would you still thank him? 

^I know this sounds silly but I am actually honest about this question.

Why? Come on man you can't go thanking Leo for your Dream Leo....lol. Waking Leo has no clue what Dream Leo is up to!! LOL!! He should probably add to his disclaimers IF YOU SEE ME IN YOUR DREAMS, WAKING LEO HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT DREAM LEO ENGAGES IN. LOL!!

Haha, you've got good points. That's why I separated them in my post (dream Leo and waking Leo). I know of course they're not really connected. But perhaps it shows how my subconscious thinks of him as a guide, which is why it placed his image in the dream instead of someone else. I didn't thank waking Leo for what dream Leo did. I thanked him for education about psychedelics. 

I would not thank the torture dream Leo. It would make me wonder what my subconscious is thinking of him to put him in that position in the dream.

Cool....but let's be honest....that Leo *looks around* is lurking around some where....don't let him catch you!!! LOL!

Cool man glad you had a good dream. And yeah awakening is definitely like waking up from a dream....but for me it was like waking up from a force induced slumber in which I was asking myself...REALLY? Why in the hell would I ever hide this aspect from myself? Whhhhyyyy?

Lol I felt like a child who was growing up in a magical world and allowed myself to indoctrinate myself into thinking it was some machine oriented mechanical world and then you find out its freaking magic and you are like WHHHY??? LOL.

Are you sure that the dream Leo and the "real" Leo are two different beings, other than you believing and imagining them to be two different beings? 

 

[Joscha]

@Vibroverse No, I'm not sure. Right now they are both images in my awareness. But its still practical to make the distinction, otherwise I would constantly talk to people about things we did in my dreams, which they wouldn't remember.

When i had my first psychedelic ever ayahuasca, i was shown a quote that i've read from leo on the forum somewhere. 'I like how ayahuasca is gentle for beginners' or ' the thing i like about ayahuasca is that its so forgiving for beginners. Really helped me out.

 

Maybe he is an ascended master of psychedelics ahaha

Ayahuasca can be very brutal. Depends on the recipe and the strength of the brew.
