Speed Induced "hallucinations" Options

Now I know that everybody who has experienced "hallucinations" from staying up days on methamphetamine will almost always put it down to speed induced psychosis but after having a very lifelike conversation with a voice in after 3 days of sleep deprivation and lack of food im starting to question how imaginary these so called hallucinations really are.

Im interested in hearing opinions on the subject from occultists. I had no idea what psionics were until I had this experience. The voice talked about all sorts of things but at one point it said "Seeing as your more in tune with this dimension where deceased people reside, I can send you psionic frequencies". Also the voice asked me if it was my first psychedelic encounter.

Another very strange detail was the fact that after the voice told me it was going to give me a wet willy I actually felt a cold finger poke me in the back. It either felt like a cold finger or cold water seeping through my t-shirt.

Alot of very strange and unexplainable things happened. The voice seemed hellbent on convincing me I was dead too. It wanted me to face a certain direction and I noticed when I did the voice would get louder and more intense. At one point the voice said "Now that I have his undivided attention, I concentrate on his frontal lobe". I felt hands on each side of my face after that.

Something fairly strange that happened was after the voice told me I was going to get carpol tunnel syndrome my hands went ice cold and started sweating excessively for no logical reason.

Should I just assume it was my subconscious speaking to me or was there something else involved? The reason I posted in the psionics forum is because of that statement it made about psionic frequencies. I might have heard about psionics but I didnt know exactly what it was at the time.

Dude, Methamphetamine is NOT the way to go. Trust me. I have never tried it, never wanted to, because I've seen the havoc it wreaks in people's lives. It may seem an easy way to kick open the doors, but it's not. It will destroy you.

Self-discipline and study are really the ways to go. Yes, they're longer, and they require work, but you'll reap a lot of non-magical rewards along the way, not to mention having a much calmer and less drama-filled life. And your internal organs will thank you for not burning them out by age 30.

I'm with the others in that drug-induced hallucinations are not necessarily false, nor are the entities non-existent. Like anything else you have to consider the source and then test the information that you've been given. It may take a while, and this is where the self-discipline thing comes in.

As for my own history, I've never tried any street drug for any reason. Never had an interest in them, which is a good thing--I'm on a small pharmacy to keep me alive, but they're all immunosuppressants/anti-inflammatories, not psychotropics. I've never wanted to test my liver's limits though, so I do what the doc tells me.

I will occasionally use alcohol in ritual or magical use, though. I've found concentrating on a question for a while, drinking just enough to make me sleepy, and still concentrating on the question as I drift off will often help me solve the problem at hand. Usually I wake up with a clear answer, sometimes it takes a couple days. And occasionally I'll just offer wine or sake on my altar, or pour a cup outside on the ground to honour the gods.
