fun(?) fact! ego death feels like death :D

you know that thing people say about how everyone's last thought is of their mother or their home?

when i first took LSD i experienced an ego death, and just before fully letting go i thought to myself "how will i tell my mum i died?"

it was, to put it blunt, quite fucking terrifying. thankfully i had enough logic in me to calm myself down and fully let go to experience it, after the you dies the world becomes so– fresh. i felt like an alien experiencing the Earth for the first time, there was no barrier between me and the world, because for a few hours there was no "me"
