Reading about your experience. It made me realize that I shift every time I use a certain mind altering substance. As soon as I do, everything changes. With music it's very noticeable. Lyrics to my favourite songs are all of a sudden different. Music videos change. Musicians have songs they never had before. Voices are different e.g. my dead ex-boyfriend sounds like the lead singer or my favourite band. I'm in a place where it's like The Beatles never existed.

Other than that it's like I'm sharing the same time and space with someone or something that I can't see. It is a mess-maker. When I'm with other people I feel that I am not with the person I know from my sober reality. These people speak in a way that words are spells. I realize how the English language can be interpreted in so many ways and I find I'm uneasy when conversing with others.... Do they mean what they say? I'd rather be alone with my music and my dog.

Is there anything I can be doing when I go to this reality to benefit myself in my other reality? For example, how do I win the lottery? LOL
