DOSE:
180 mg oral Pharms - Mirtazapine (pill / tablet)
  1 cig. smoked Cannabis (plant material)
BODY WEIGHT: 160 lb
my doctor had just put me on a new antidepressant called Remeron. it came in packs of six, and they dissolve in your mouth, tasting like oranges and aspartame. one day, just for the fuck of it, I decided to triple my recommended dose of 60mg. so I took the pills and smoked a j. about 45min to an hour later I was lying in bed with a blacklight on I began to feel strange, like I was trippin. With my eyes closed, I saw a kaleidescope of the most brilliant colors, forming so many different insane designs. then I opened my eyes and looked up at an abstract picture that I had painted - and cartoon characters formed resembling the simpsons - and they were talking to me. Things in my dark room would suddenly take a new shape and become animate - this shit was really freakin me out to the point that I thought I was going to die. Among the things I saw the most memorable was the face of a demon or devil of some sort while my eyes were closed.

I have used it about 3-4 times after then, but none as intense as the first. Random visual hallucinations - especially with closed eyes - moderate to extreme hallucinations. One time I kept on 'hearing' pages over the intercom at work all fucking night - but I was at home the whole time. I have also seen books held by someone else's hands in front of my eyes with an indescribably strange writing. I let one of my friends try it one time and he saw a book also. He said that he felt like there was a tv on in his head flipping through channels and shows that he had never seen before - really weird shit.

The bad part is that whenever I finally fall asleep - I don't plan on getting up for at least 12 hrs - I wont have a very productive next day.
