If you really listen, his “gibberish” makes perfect sense. In his best way, he is explaining that he suspects that his mother used LSD. He confronted his mother and accused her of taking the drug while pregnant with him but she denied it. He is also traumatized by the fact that his sister may not be his father’s child, which implies a family scandal if she’s his half sister. His sister also hated him and she had “red hair like the man up the street”, not like his dad’s hair. Furthermore he wonders where his strong addiction came from. He blames his mom for his addiction, which got worse while in Maryland. Again, you just have to listen...
Dude you might of just translated this Interview.
VidMerge you sound like your a great listener.... I couldn’t understand a word that man said
I wish Mark had more time and patience to sift through this mans thoughts and piece together a story. could've been interesting? maybe not
You appear to be quite an intellectuall.
How did you do that? I'm trying my best to listen but I really can't understand him. Fair play man - I appreciate the translation.
I’m no expert but I think he’s experiencing a permanent thought loop, meaning he’s fixating on one particular memory that he can’t get past.
Yup i feel him deeply I got stuck on 3 thought loops
Oh fuck no man. That's insane. I was curious about LSD. Not anymore.
That is scary as fuck
@@gtas321 it really depends man, I've done it 10 times I have no problem talking or anything. I've got stuck in a loop once and it was like a trip from hell off 3 or 4 tabs. But I was with a Friend so they calmed me down
gtas321 bro it’s best you do what feels right I’ll just let you know as someone who’s tripped multiple times not everyone will lose their grip on reality only with abuse or an underlying mental issue
Here's what I heard and my interpretation.
He grew up in Inglewood, California. He had both of his parents in his life, but his childhood was kind of messed up. He says he "seems" to have an older half-sister. He thinks his mother cheated on his father before he was born with "a red headed guy from the neighborhood", resulting in the sister. "In 1968 a nurse told" Steven's mother that his sister has a "rare blood type", a characteristic that is inherited from mother and father. She probably had a blood type that was impossible or very unlikely with his mother and father as the real parents. This leads to the assumption of infidelity. He said it "seems" that he has an older half-sister, so I take that to mean his mother denied the affair or it wasn't 100% certain that the blood type couldn't have been from his parents. He also said "I hate to say this, but she hated me."
Then the LSD questions start and Steven has another story that he can't seem to fully articulate. He says he "had an amazing psychedelic(?) trip(maybe dream here?) when he was in Maryland, of all places." He also describes event later: "In Maryland I had, I say, this wack(?) amazing dream, and it was so frickin' twisted." He says, "I accused my mother of taking LSD before I was born" When asked how long he has been using LSD he says, "I had this dream, as bizarre as it was, I thought my mother had taken LSD (unsure here, wack?)." Then he says she said no. He get frustrated when the interviewer wants to move on and says "let me finish".
Look at this guy though. He's got the suit coat, the Hurley tee, vans. Flashes the metal sign on the way out. He has a style and a personality under there. He probably needs social, medical, and emotional help from trained professionals. Just like damn near ever other person living in a tent on the side of America's main streets. Until we stop writing these people off like crazy lost souls and start treating them like members of our own families the problem will only continue to get worse.
I can't believe I spent as much time as I did going over this video. I rarely even comment on videos, but something about this one and the comments section really made me want to dig deeper here. Steven is a person, not too different from you and me really. He clearly has some things that he would like to get out and can't be heard. I can't imagine how that must feel.
Pin this fucking comment!!!! 👏👏👏👏
Thank you for “deciphering “ this bc it was very hard to understand him. I always try and listen to these videos and was going to give up until I found your comment. I appreciate your comments and agree with you. Have a good day!
What a service you’ve done for those of us who’ve watched this and not understood him. Thank you. And thank you for your thoughts. Very reality based and kind hearted.
Yeah the interviewer seems impatient with him, it almost came off rude lol.
PIN! THIS! FUCKING! COMMENT!
Let’s be clear here. This gentleman is exhibiting psychological issues that do not seem to represent the vast majority of people around the world that have used LSD.
@iicei To a certain point, when you start getting higher than 500microgram dose you get into puddle territory.
Have you ever taken LSD?
@@blakereneehope yes
The dude is crazy.
@Kyle Cromwell alcohol does the same. Impairment of motor function and its addictive.
He is still trying to answer the first question. He is stuck on the first question . I can see the frustration within himself to answer it.
The childhood question broke him
I agree Jessica 👍
My buddy had a friend, did loads of lsd every weekend, cooked his brain and can no longer even communicate with anyone.
I did a lot of acid. Learned a lot. Unfortunately, none of these lessons were particularly helpful in the area of fitting in with society. So I got to a point where I had to ask myself why I'm taking a drug that lets me clearly see the absurdity of all aspects of life, namely the work force and innumerable social conventions. I feel like whatever wisdom I got from it was outweighed by developing a distaste for mainstream society, which frankly, has not been helpful.
wow. best description of the effect of lsd right here
But it's true no?
Right! It can be useful for a while. But using it to party or having a good time (after the first couple or thirty times) loses it's "fun". I agree with you that after a certain point it loses it's positive effects
Why do you think all aspects of life are absurd?
@@barry.anderberg I didn't say everything is absurd, I just said acid let me see all the absurd aspects of life. This is probably a bad example, but without acid in your head, the idea of applying for a job, interviewing, and providing a clean urine sample might seem normal enough. On acid, it's preposterous--the idea that before you exchange your time for money, this person needs to run an analysis on your urine. Some things that pass for being normal will strike you as being insane on acid.
I know a guy exactly like this who has never done lsd but has been diagnosed with schizophrenia since he was in his mind teens. He talks exactly like this guy. If you listen closely, he's trying to make sense. These ppl fall thru the cracks all the time everywhere
Lsd has the potential to bring out mental illnesses mainly psychotic illnesses like schizophrenia. I've dealt with the dangers of lsd myself
@P E R S P E C T I V E mate. If you knew me you would know I'm all about psychedelics. I by no means regret any of my trips. I think about them often. Yes it can very much so even more so monitored by someone professional. What I'm saying is it has the potential to go bad after the trip is over. When it goes bad it's really fucking bad. It can be very damaging and people don't really know about this side of lsd.
@P E R S P E C T I V E when the trips done. It can change your brain. Look up hppd it's a rare disorder that in my case leaves me seeing visuals even when im sober and it doesn't go away. Some people it goes away after a few years, others it never goes away... if you're someone whos prone to mental illness genetically
Or you're just not in a good place when you have that trip. After THE trip that illness can start to come out. Depending on how the trip went. This is all individual ofc. The trip is done BUT once you go into that psychedelic world and open your mind up it can definitely change your life. I'm guessing you haven't tripped before because you'd already know that
I think your right on it in fact I think we all have at least seen someone like that and it’s sad and a bit unforgivable for society to treat them like they can’t see them
@P E R S P E C T I V E fuckin hell it's like talking to a child. The mental illness is due to the lsd. Ever heard of drug induced psychosis....
He felt totally dismissed at the end. I feel bad for him. He tried hard to express himself.
Mark got butt hurt when he threw the middle sign up 😂😂😂
I know what u mean, he was trying to vent and finish his story
I did LSD a few times when I was a kid, there’s more going on here than LSD
Yeah
Rs he seems to be on a high dose and a sprinkle of some other shit
Same but this guy is likely a daily user. The rare LSD junkie. He is fried bro. We didnt get perma-fried like this guy
Same here, I've done it maybe 40 or 50 times but I'd bet theres more here than LSD. For real, tho, I do know one dude that has fried his brain from to much of that stuff. His parents were dosing him and his brother at 9 or 10 yrs old, sending "stevie" to san Francisco on a bus with a back pack full of Lucy at 12 or 13. The brother is dead, has been. "Stevie" is on the streets of Santa Cruz, last I heard.
Hes kinda like this dude. Trying to converse is useless. To much of anything is bad for you/us.
Sad shit. Makes me grateful to have the sanity that I do have.
😔
Damn right. I've tripped a whole lot on lsd, 2cb, mescaline, psilocybin, mdma, mda, ketamine, even fucking dxm and am no worse for the wear. Even had a puddle dose of liquid LSD. This dude has some serious underlying issues
He was hurt at a very young age and has never gotten passed it, decades of alcohol & drug abuse have compounded a pre-existing mental problem, this is what you get.
Getting hurt as a child, seems a recurring tragedy, with divorced/split up patents being a major cause in the vast majority of these cases.
This interview broke my heart . Poor poor soul trapped in that living hell of mumbling and incoherent thoughts but fixated with a truth in there only he knows. I hope God wraps him tightly at night so his sleep is better than living
Identify as fuck with him. Pretty sure i'd end up just like him if I take some strange corridors. God is good , god is fair
Ur description of his soul made me laugh but it’s so true, poor guy.
Sweet message. We all will get that relief one day
Man Jody Banks I feel you on this i hope God comforts him and gives him peace couldn’t even imagine
Amen
I will admit, that was funny when you asked him if he had children, and he gave you the finger.
bro i was layin on the ground fr whahah
FRRR i screamed
LSD is most likely the last of Steve's problems.
bovko wdym?
@@danaelona4081 they mean that there's a lot more things wrong with him apart from LSD
anything to protect the deluded bullshit about your special drug huh?
rootkit bahahahahaha deluded bullshit, do some real research man there’s no need to be so fucking angry there is actually no proven bad effects of lsd on ur body, a bad trip can be very intense and on high doses can result in ptsd but there is no proven negatives besides this, people who are genetically predisposed to developing schizophrenia or psychosis psychedelics of any kind ( and weed) can bring it on faster. If ur going to be an asshole at least known what ur talkin about. Smh 🤦♂️ some ppl
rootkit you clearly have never taken or done any research on lsd
His brain is scrambling with his memories and thoughts a thousand miles an hour which causes him to mumble both truth and nonsense at the same time. He struggles being able to grasp a moment in reality, to him the world, reality, is moving too fast for him to function. I understand the dude, and its saddening to see. He can get back in his brain if he completely changes his life around and focuses on himself and getting back to normal. I dont see him as a lost cause like 100% of the people might think of him when hearing him talk. Theres a lost human being behind all that fog. My best wishes for him truly.
SLEEP-DEPRIVATION WILL DO THAT TO YOU! Per person, drug use may alleviate and ameliorate, moderate and mediate, or exacerbate, self-medication is a VERY big part of homeless crisis, unfortunately laborers or kids of laborers who end up homeless, generally lack a comprehensive pharmacological knowledge, due in part to fictional fear (moralising has broached)
I agree with this, that and it seems like hes having "thought loops" except hes trying to speak them - hence why hes constantly repeating himself. Not everyone has thought loops but I've experienced it; not to this extent obviously but high enough doses over that long period of time could probably cause this on someone who's affected differently by LSD or someone who has a form of Tourettes.
Listening to this guy I can now really appreciate what a great actor Johnny Depp really is for playing Raoul Duke.
Exactly he's there you can see his feelings under all the mess. He can come back with a lot of work
That’s crazy from a nigga named thanos
This guy's mind is gone and there's no coming back. The lights are on but nobody's home.
Reminds me of syd barrett from pink floyd . When the band members went to see him he didnt even know who they were
@@misstiffany614 funny that ssyd had severe schizophrenia, which is not caused by LSD. Still very sad syd barret days were some of my favorite
@@ChrististKing yeah I'm aware he most likely had schizo and it was brought out by lsd. It still sucks that this can happen. Lsd isnt for everyone
his family did that to him, when he was a kid.
Miss Tiffany He has Schizophrenia my guy MIXED with drugs haha
This is terrifying, it almost seems like he's stuck in a loop, there's something he's trying to process and get out but he mentally can't get past it. He knows what he's trying to get at and just expects the other person to understand what's going through his mind.
That's exactly what's going on. I don't know if it's paranoia that's doing it to him but this seems common with paranoid schizophrenics, the psychedelics amplify the behavior to the point where their thought loops take hold of them
Title is problematic. I seriously doubt LSD use is the largest obstacle in this guys life. I think there are other conditions there.
@killah5x X define "fried"?
nobody said LSD was the largest obstacle for him. you made that logical jump, not the video, its title, or anything anyone else said. i'd be willing to bet that LSD is not helping Stephen's mental state, and i think it's a fair logical jump to make, but don't call out the title for something you assumed on your own.
H H even IF it was due to LSD he probably just got a rlly shitty research chemicals or did it very often. looks like he had some sort of serious underlying mental condition. it definitely can’t just be LSD
i've seen perfectly healthy people turn into incoherent stringbeans when taking LSD so please, shut the fuck up...
@@ghostehh lsd is just so meaningful for people that they can't accept all the harm it can cause.
“LSD user” more like psychosis ridden man that has taken a lot of LSD, key word, a lot
Doubt its real lsd half the time.
LSD user with a whole lot of crack in-between
Bingo. Spot on answer.
He is definitely perma fried.
More like someone who took a lot of LSD very frequently and developed psychosis from it
All the people commenting about “this isn’t what lsd does.” Most people don’t use it from the age of 7, for years and years. After so many years of abusing it, it’s going to take a toll on you like any other drug. It’s so naive to say otherwise.
its not
learn pharmacology scrub
I WOULDN'T trust a single word this guy was able to drivel on about, the guy's ostensibly sleep-deprived or mentally-disordered (neuro-chemically, drugs just exacerbate visible signs and symptoms), if you think drugs are the primer, you're as funny as him!😅this guy is seriously sleep-deprived FIRST and FOREMOST, beside being HIGHLY LIKELY mentally-disordered.
The liklihood of this guy receiving long-term mental-social-economic support IS very low, especially with CENTRE-RIGHT led public-sectors throughout the anglo-west, guys like this WILL DIE long before assistance and aid are made available/accessible
Zoe Huerta he also said he does crack
Into The Void maybe you should learn up, you seem pretty naive buddy. Years of repeated doses of lsd can fry your brain especially if you are susceptible to mental illnesses. Maybe you should learn up of pharmacology instead of just spitting something out you know nothing about.
I’m still curious where he was going with his story. And why he felt the importance of telling these things. Hope we can see him again.
He's likely experiencing psychosis
I've taken LSD several times and continue to enjoy it on occasion along with psychedelic mushrooms. This man has way more going on than LSD.
Some people take everyday. It will definitely will mess your brain up
Nahh when I hear ‘LSD User’ I definitely think it implies someone who takes it often. In which a friend of mine is starting to become this way. I don’t frown upon the occasionally use of LSD, but slowly I’m starting to see how frequent users end up somewhat ‘twisted’, and think in very impractical ways.
The problom is most Defenetly not lsd but mental illness jus sayin if ur experienced u would know
He cant think straight he just keeps forgetting what there talking about. Its so sad.
You can microdose every day and it makes you more outgoing but there are bad chemicals out there mostly test drugs such as 2cb etc.. Government grade lsd is the purest form.. he got some bad shit it seems..
anyone that has taken LSD can relate to the exhausting thought loops and difficulties with speech, poor guy
I HATE LSD because of the loops I fall into coming down. I cant imagine that being my life..
Jackson Barry out of all the times I’ve taken it i’ve only gotten into a loop similar to this guy once for a very brief time. Can’t even think of being like that forever.
gclinton same. It’s awful, it’s like pressure is being put on you when you try and talk and you get so nervous the words won’t come out
My tolerance was to high after 2 days. It is impossible to keep tripping. And it does not make u act like this.
sadhu take it enough times and it will🤣🤣
One good dose of LSD put the nail in the coffin of my 16 year crack addiction so I guess it’s about moderation.
I just took LSD last night 3 tabs, amazing trip any bad thoughts or scary things I saw I knew it was the drugs it didn’t phase me. I haven’t been to sleep it I been awake for a full day bc I had work and I been moving to a new house. While the trip was amazing coming out of the drug is so painful and feels nasty
Maybe moderation but this dude also isnt you. He lived a traumatic life and took acid and pretty much fell into a rabbit hole of depravity and insanity. Wasnt just acid. It was life too.
TheRestlesstraveller ur calling me a liar?
@TheRestlesstraveller you've obviously never done LSD if you don't understand what he's saying. LSD isn't a normal drug, It opens your mind and can really show you what you need to do to change yourself for the better. I know people that have struggled with weight issues, took LSD, and were able to moderate their eating and have great results. As well, there are many stories of other examples of people taking LSD to knock horrible habits and better themselves all over the internet. Don't judge someones story if you don't know what they've been through or know what things are really like man. Be happy for the dude, he quit fucking crack. That's such an accomplishment. No need to be rude bro
Snnowyy 🙏
Follow up with him please, he has a story that needs to be heard.
But he can't even tell it. So sad.
His photo still looks like a gta loading screen
Dead😂
I love you
Lol it does
VSSKREAM I said the same thing
san andreas
i did over 500 hits of acid throughout my teenage years and i know people who have done way more then that, and iv never seen anyone turn out like this. acid is the least of this guys problems
@Homa Simpson Psychedelics are mostly leastly toxic. Meth is not LSD. Meth has been shown to cause psychosis, much more so than LSD or any psychedelic.
@Homa Simpson Way easier to abuse meth than to abuse psychedelics, that's the main difference. And hey, you even OD on caffeine, as you said, that is true for all substances, even water in excess is bad.
What I am saying is you are most likely to be healed by psychedelics than by smoking meth. I've done meth once and no, it's not like tripping. It's also compulsive as fuck. I still wanted the 3rd day in. No psych has done that to me. I would like to know if your other friends have also tried other hard drugs, because that makes a psychotic break from psychedelics more possible. Generally healthy people do come back to reality, I have experienced psychedelic overdose first hand and I know it's not pretty. But hey, what do you expect when you take more than 500 UG of acid and 100's of MG's of DMT at a time? First of all, that's immature and unresponsible.
My main point is: 1.-People with mental illness should avoid ALL drugs.
2.-Meth is not a psychedelic.
3.-ANY overdose is dangerous
4.-Psychedelics should not be considered in the same categories of drugs such as meth. They are way less dangerous and way more healing.
I simply won't accept the claim you make about meth and psychedelics being equally as dangerous. Psychedelics have given so much more than just a high.
Science tells us there is no evidence psychedelics cause psychosis or schizophrenia unless you are too young for them or are predisposed genetically. I agree with you, only up to certain parts. It CAN be dangerous, but it's not physically dangerous. The dangers come mentally (Not physically in the brain, supposing your brain is developed...). Someone can undergo what is called PTSD from psychedelic trips if they are not prepared and that trauma can seriously fuck them up. Not denying that.
But you want to make me think like it's going to cause some sort of disease or madness within itself and I don't think that is the case unless you OD hard and abuse it like Syd Barret (Yeah, thank you for putting a guy who took 1000's of UG's of acid every goddamn day. It really shows you the responsibility I'm advocating for.) I have a friend who is a Shaman, he does healing rituals with Ayahuasca, Yopo, Mushrooms, Bufo, and more. He's been in dozens if not hundreds of sessions and not once has he witnessed someone go through a psychotic break. Saying that tripping is more dangerous than meth, that's way too far of a stretch. Meth would have destroyed me and it never showed me the beauty of life. Mushrooms had made me appreciate my life and it was the reset I needed to take more positive and loving actions. I would prefer mushrooms every day of the week rather than a compound that has destroyed millions of lives. Also, meth is neurotoxic. You must know this, right? Psychedelics aren't, they even promote new neurons to grow and connect. "More dangerous" my bass man!
@Homa Simpson You are describing my old self. I used to go overboard with the DMT. I am no stranger to OD. It's wrong, it's awful. The time I overdosed on DMT I thought I ruined my brain for that moment too. I stopped breathing for like 10 minutes completely. One time I came back and my right side of the brain was freaking out, I was seeing everything trippy in my right eye but everything ok on the left. My friends told me I looked like shit and I felt like shit. There were lessons there but it just wasn't ok. And again, what do you expect when you snort like 150 MG of DMT and smoke like 90 MG or more. I´ve outgrown that. The last time I took LSD was half a hit of good 250 ug acid, I had a bad trip and thought I was going to go insane. Also got the worst headache ever. Your concerns are legitimate. I got scared shitless. I've learned to respect. In no way was I advocating for anything else but responsible and healing use of psychedelics. I just stick with mushies and I don't ever plan to go above 5 grams and even that is stretching it. It's not like I want to do it frequently as well.
Correct me if I'm wrong dude, please, I would appreciate it; Your friends either abused hard drugs like meth, heroin or crack in the past, had schizophrenic genetics, had a mental illness, took wayyyy too big of a dose, were already mentally unstable, became traumatic about the experience or were under 25 years of age. Am I wrong to assume any of these?
@Homa Simpson Psychedelics are not physically dangerous though, they literally are not. I agree though that in terms of the actual induced altered consciousness given by psychedelics has more potential to be dangerous than something like Meth. I have personally experienced psychosis on LSD because I took too much (not knowing the dose of the tabs) and ended up handcuffed at a police station even though I started the trip on the side of a mountain 1 hours drive from the nearest town. But you cannot die from overdosing psychedelics and when people say psychedelics are safe, they mean that no one has ever died from intoxication, because psychedelics are by nature, not toxic chemicals.
I say this respectfully in regards to your friends who unfortunately suffer with psychiatric illness as a supposed result of psychedelic use, but I am sceptical, I am a medical student doing a medicinal chemistry degree and a bachelor of medicine and will specialise in psychiatry when I am older, I do have educated knowledge of this subject, however, I totally concede that I am just a student and not a qualified doctor or scientist, therefore, nothing I say is factual but rather my somewhat educated opinion.
But I do think that psychedelics can't have caused your friend's psychiatric issues without other drug use or underlying conditions. Psychotic disorders, Schizophrenia and the many subsets of schizophrenia are a result of dopamine dysfunction in the brain, psychedelics are serotonergic drugs that mimic serotonin at specific receptors and the nature of the serotonin receptors is that they can rapidly adjust and regenerate/destroy themselves. Dopaminergic receptors don't though and that is why long binges of stimulants or large doses can cause psychosis as well. It is also why using dopaminergic drugs can permanently damage the sensitivity of dopamine receptors.
If someone is going to go schizophrenic or develop symptoms of psychotic disorders then they WILL be predisposed to it because of the placement and function of dopamine receptors in the brain and their associated brain regions that don't function properly causing symptoms, and I mean their brain will technically be physically shaped different and drugs can easily push the predisposed brain past the threshold so that dopaminergic neuron dysfunction really locks in. This can happen with psychedelics because as a result of very strong serotonergic effects there is a lot of indirect dopamine activity (what can cause temporary psychotic episodes during a trip) and it is never good for anyone with major psychiatric issues to take powerful psychological drugs.
This dude is in outer space....
Spittin "pure truths" (unintelligble garble)
You put him in a loop for a second, scary shit. I hope this man finds peace.
Are we gonna pretend that he didn’t flip the interviewer off for telling him that they already talked about his sister? He has Pure frustration for the world that he can’t get out of this though loop.
You see that in a different perspective, I see him flipping him off directly after he was asked
" do you have children or your own"
Saw this man yesterday (02/23/2020). He was walking on Sunset in Hollywood. I
recognized him and man, so sad. He does look very well out of it in person to the point people have to walk around him. I hope he finds help. He definitely should not be roaming and fending for himself. :(
@@allyeee I've watched a fair few of these videos and I've questioned whether some of these individuals are capable of giving consent. With regard to this gentleman - how does a person seek support if they are unaware they need it or incapable of verbalising it themselves. Somebody seriously needs to be advocating for this man. I pray he is on someone's radar!
I mean you saw him why didn't you take him in to help if you were so concerned? idk if I could just write about seeing someone in need just for bragging points of being included, he needed help right? did you stop to help? or did you go home and write about someone else taking the burden?
@@iamlame6370 what would you have done?
@@iamlame6370 stfu
@@iamlame6370 Some people can't be helped and many don't want help. I know these things because my brother had mental illness and died alone on the streets. He did not want help either. Believe me we tried. Spent tons of money. Brought him home a few times and he would try to fix himself but in the end he was most comfortable on the streets.
Now leave this girl alone. If you met this guy what would you do? Grab hold of him and pull him to the psych ward? No you would not. So shut your fucking mouth.
Mark: "Do you have children?"
Guy on LSD: "🖕"
🤭😬🤣💀💀💀
Chrysi Chrysi lmaoo😂💀
😭
i think he did that because the dude was degrading everything he was saying. he should have worked harder to understand what he was saying
it was because he slightly disrespectfully said "yes we already talked about your sister"
I thought that ment one tbh
As a former LSD abuser, not average user, this is the harsh reality. I was lucky to pull myself out while I could, but i have videos on my phone of me still, acting almost identical to this(even in between trips). It was always such a fun experience at first, but when you take to much of a good thing, it becomes a nightmare. To this day, I can take 4 tabs, barely feel a thing, because my brain has been so overloaded from it all(thats my theory at least) use it as a tool, not a vice
Abuse 5meodmt
Your comment makes sense because my cousin takes 7 now but he said 5 to actually feel it when 3 used to make him trip hard in the beginning after he first started using LSD 16 years ago.
I'm no expert, but I'm doing a thesis on psychedelics.. Psychedelics can actually stimulate psychospiritual experiences and expand one's consciousness... This is misleading as this man is not simply an LSD user.. He's clearly a man with a traumatic past who may also have genetic predispositions which have lead him to this point.. Ones biology and genetics interact with one's environment.. This is not simply LSD effects.. This is really sad tho 😔😔
Kim, how much LSD have you done? The reason I ask is your stupid statement. Can you even prove your spiritual awareness ? The cons of using is far greater than the pros. You nor no body else could prove that these drugs are beneficial, and yes Steve has done wayyyy too much.
@@firebreathinggarage2117 ahh blissful ignorance. So I'll throw the question back on you, have you tried psychedelics? The reason I ask is your stupid statement ofc. You have no idea the beneficial effects and properties these sacred "drugs" could have on the spiritual sike. Psilocybin decreases anxiety levels, takes people out of depression, gives you a clearer cognitive state with lower doses and can even bring people out of addiction, easier than you think. Inform yourself and stop living with what the government and Reagan proposed in the 70s and 80.
@@firebreathinggarage2117 I would also like to ask what cons you bring to the table and the research youve found
Talon Sharp just delete your comment if you haven’t experimented with it
@@firebreathinggarage2117 I agree, LSD does have long term affects unlike magic mushrooms. It can cause you to see or hear things that aren't there even when your not on LSD and it can get worse if you don't take time to recover. LSD isn't that bad if you don't abuse it. I knew someone that got stuck in a never-ending trip just like the man in this video.
“Do you have children ?”
*flips off camera man*
me too
I love his "rock on" exit stunt at the end, see what you did there steve
He did it with enough ferocity, he got the "whoosh" sound
🤣
Get this guy on again. Very Interesting
This man needs someone who can be patient and work to understand him. He’s so traumatized and this is painful for him to speak about, he is dissociating constantly. The interviewer brings him back each time he asks a question but unfortunately Steven is stuck trying to make sense. He needs someone to sit with him and hear his story as best as he can tell, to accept him and make him feel safe and loved. I really feel for him. I am disappointed with how the focus of this became LSD but I think the interviewer was trying to clarify Steven’s claim.
I’m sorry, not to be disrespectful, but when he shot the finger to the camera I had to laugh! It was so unexpected!
I rolled on the floor laughing. I used to do some LSD during my early 20's. But of course, just not like this guy, he's was in Pluto during the interview. It was only his body sitting on the chair.
Yeah I lost it, that made my day
Perfect execution on that one finger salute..
I didn't expect him to do that 😂😆😆😆 then he realized,he was like oh 😂...
This guy is the physical embodiment of the feeling I get when I’m Trippin and I can’t come up with the word.
I know exactly what your talking about. Exactly. I cant think of a word or a phrase for it either. But i wish i could eloquently explain it right now. But like you said i just cannot figure out how to verbalize it.
It’s a demonic “vibe” bruhhhh
It sounds as though you are experiencing psychosis on your trip? If so, i would strongly suggest that you do not use acid again. I wish you well my friend.
Thanks for the heads up John
John Moran I very much enjoy lsd, feel it gives me a break from the monotony. NEVER had a “bad trip”. If that’s psychosis, at least it’s good for a laugh later. So many miles we have come, many yet to go. Destination unknown, but that direction we all flow.
let’s make it clear. this is an LSD “abuser”. you can use LSD and not turn out like this. I hope he is doing okay and gets the help he needs.
True. I love lsd. Im 40 . Ive taken lsd Probably more than 200 times. Im perfectly normal
U can keep doin it dont worry
Even lsd “abuse” will probably not get you this. This is a result of severe trauma not lsd use.
I tried abusing it but I felt sober after 3 days of dosing. Googled lsd tolerance
Wolf have you ever ever EVER thought, just maybe... it wasn’t really lsd? Man, I’ve had hppd for the last 6 months. It’s not that bad, and trust me I’ve taken my fair share. This guy is not because lsd use, he’s just insane. Plain and simple. Sometimes there just isn’t a scapegoat. That is life.
Mark and his people are just wonderful for giving these souls a chance to let everyone into their world and giving a glimpse of them at their best.

I felt that
Soul on FIRE 😂💀💀 I had to laugh at that but damn I feel bad on how fried his brain is now he got lost ina loop and never came out

His mom did LSD when he was being carried and cheated on his Dad to give birth to his sister who had red hair like the guy who lived down the block from him. (Or The red hair part and the guy down the street is what his father thought which might have caused problems )

LMFAO
@ 5:30. the second " the question hit his Mind, the thought translated to an Action. That is the only time he stared right at the Camera.
He heard children he said fuck no😂😂
Fr😭
A rare moment of crystal clear clarity 😂😂😂
This hits close to home. My uncle developed schizophrenia because of lsd, it's literally as if I'm watching him. He should stay safe.
Well he had schizophrenia already, the lsd was just a catalyst.
just to clarify, lsd cant cause schizophrenia. it can however increase any pre-existing schizoid type mental illnesses, even if some one doesnt exhibit any symptoms before. with that being said, for any one reading this who is considering exploring psychoactive chemicals, please get a mental evaluation beforehand. lsd is generally safe, but it can cause problems if you have any mental problems already. to reiterate, lsd CAN NOT cause schizophrenia.
Rose Gold take it ur a med prof
I too, had a distant family member who abused drugs at a young age - unfortunately he had to move to a group home due to the severe schizophrenia. Not as severe as this guy but always seemed off / odd in later years.
@Rose Gold You're pretty uninformed huh
Please note that an average dose of LSD doesn’t make you like this guy. No where near it actually. There’s definitely other issues at play here.
Edit: like someone below said, it can be bad for people with serious underlying mental health issues like schizophrenia. if your family has a history of that, don’t take it. but unless you take like 100 tabs, then you’re fine.
That's where your wrong. A standard dose of lsd has the potential to go wrong with the wrong person. I.e if you have a history of mental illness like schizophrenia for example it can actually bring the illness out. My experiences can say so themselves. Lsd isn't a joke and has the potential to be dangerous. Like all psychs be cautious have a good set and setting
@@davechristian7543 real LSD is definitely still around. Clearly you don't trip. So you have no clue. Also this dude obviously does other drugs than lsd, maybe lsd contributed to his current state but you can't abuse lsd like other drugs you build immediate tolerance. He likely uses harder drugs like alcohol or meth which have exacerbated a pre-existing condition which for whatever reason he is attributing to lsd.
@@davechristian7543 Real LSD is still out and about, there's a few organizations that test pills/blotters in a lab and posts/sends you the results. One is called Energy Control based out of Spain and another is Ecstasy Data based in the US, and both regularly test and report real LSD sent to them.
That and 1p-LSD is easily available as a research chemical and gets hydrolyzed into regular LSD in the body, the two drugs are virtually indistinguishable because of this. L in the 60s was stronger but it's not extinct by any means.

STOP pushing about LSD.
It has nothing to do with him.
Ask about his trauma, etc.
but what about the LSD tho
jfc
100% true.
It really does, LSD is derived from ergot a fungus. Basically a poison that causes cognitive interruption in your brain and causes distorted thoughts and vision. Over too much use it will do irreversible damage to your brain. He most likely has mental health but it could have started after his first dose.
@@buddnety9456 get out of here with that swoony arsepiss.

This is bat country.
-- How does this guy get by with such an abstract interface with perception and communication ?
Steven is the prime example of what makes me so curious about human beings. Though I could barely understand him, I did everything in my power to actually really listen to him. Thanks to the comment below me I now have a better understanding of what he was trying to relay to us. Steven is one of a kind, may God bless his heart.
Dude, bring an emergency private-sector mental health service in to treat cases like this! You must be gaining contacts in that area by now!
NONE! Of his siblings WANT anything to do with him, steve is truly throughly royally screwly screwed, he's straight-up fucked
I think if he could just finish his thought about his sister he would have had a much more productive interview.
their interviewers do not relate to mental illness in the slightest. I could have easily led his thought process but I deal with ppl tripping and in a 'loop' quite often
I agree. Wanted to hear the story that he wanted to share.
Yea he was cut off every time .... lots of people could understand him I’m sure he has a crazy storie but couldn’t even get it out mark u should interview him again and just let him talk speak even tho u don’t understand lots of others will interpret
Feel so bad for him. :(
Don't, these guys ARE everywhere!
James Jerome 1/100 people are schizophrenic like this man. Doesn’t mean you should lack empathy.
M Jdhrvevshs Not Schizophrenic my brother and my mother and my father all live in this house with schizophrenia and this is not like it at all
extra leak schizophrenia can effect different people in different ways, there’s a lot of different symptoms and most schizophrenics only have some of them so therefore it will appear different in different people.
Y he's in heaven
1:41 ; when I’m heating up my dab rig and my dad walks in
chill hahhaha

Steve’s prob a pretty smart guy. He’s just on 10 hits at the moment... God Bless You Steve
It's so smart of you getting these interviews paying these people for their storys and creating a channel that will be nothing but prosperous not to mention you seem to be a good soul God bless
His brain is definitely fried, he's stuck in a forever trip. He's in the "cycle" of thinking the same thoughts over and over like on acid. He's literally mentally insane, I would say the definition of insanity is you don't even remember the last thought you just thought of but keep thinking it over and over again as if its a new thought. Acid is literally insanity on a tab, making you lose yourself, your ego. As a frequent LSD user I still see walls and trippy zooming in and out, I couldn't imagine what he's seeing. He's stuck in a loop hole of thoughts and can't get out of it, he definitely had a full on ego death.
i think you have HPPD
@@max-dy1iv nah I've never really had a flashback, besides when my brother freaked the fuck out and had an ego death and whenever I think about it my heart starts to race and I see the room as trippy

There is far more going on here than simple LSD usage. This man is exhibiting severe mental issues that have nothing to do with LSD or any drug usage.

His 3rd eye is open
@@bubblelsd5536 So is your asshole and alot of shit is falling out
You are very right. You can defiantly see some underlying disorder such as maybe drealizarion or something of that sort, I’m no expert. LSD would be very hard to become addicted to in many ways such the ones you stated.
Lsd has very little to do with how this man is acting.

Ok I knew this wouldn’t be a long interview. This guy is toast. Lord.
"She had a wack blood type and motorcycle teeth"
Lol
🤣🤣
Where does he say LSD did this to him? He has a mental problem and is probably normal on LSD.
I think it’s catatonic schizophrenia.
Lol all these druggie defenders. Enough lsd can do this. Cia did the same thing to people
You can seriously see him.acting ' normal' ifhe were on a trip?
@@jerenlancaster3767 catatonic schizophrenics don' t talk or move when they are episodic

And hasn’t slept in a week plus
its really sad he seems to be constantly repeating himself its almost as if he lost his mind and hes on a loop or something its actually really heartbreaking to watch this man go through this also the interview had to be cut short cause of that poor guy
I’m a little too high for this guy right now, I’ll check back later...
Guitar-ass me too bro, im starin at the screen wonderin why the fuck i was reccomended dis🤣
Check it now
I think it's the other way around and he's too high for us.
😂🤣oh boy.. That s exactly how I am feeling.
lmaoo i felt that
I've done thousands of hits of LSD over a period of 4 years traveling around with the grateful Dead family that are still around, I can say for a fact that he has probably taken very large quantities of LSD at one given time and it has caused his brain to regress and hide, he's almost in somewhat of a dream like state, and gets reality snapped back to him when questions are asked but as a safety precaution in his brain it shuts down and doesn't let him tell the whole story properly. My heart goes out to this dude I hope you're doing all right now, I had some crazy hard times myself lost in my head and I'm thankful I found my way.
All of these woke people in the comments defending LSD, I can almost feel their vibrations and frequencies
I don't even like LSD, but there's are a ton of objectively false rumors that get spread about it largely unchecked. Does fact checking bother you or something?
Most if not all of the people I know defending LSD don't seem particularly "smarter" or "awake" than the next guy to me. I've "babysat" a friend on that shit once, that was enough to not make me want to try it. Similarly I tried mushrooms and it was good fun but in no way did they make me smarter or "opened" any "doors". Quite the opposite tbh.
i like acid its chill and pretty normalized in the pacific northwest. not as eye opening and spiritual for me as it is for some but an enjoyable experience nonetheless, no different than enjoying being drunk on a friday night. idk why u ppl have decided its crack based on an interview of a schizo 🤷🏻♀️
LSD isn't an easily available drug and you build a tolerance so quick that it's impossible to become addicted. this guy has pre-existing mental problems obviously.
About the tolerance, yes. About the availability, not quite. LSD is far more common than you think.
He sounds similar to Hunter S. Thompson.
that's just what I was going to comment
He even dresses pretty cool just like thompson
I had a horrible trip 2 years ago my brain never fully recovered from but i pray this man finds peace some day it's hell even with the minor problems i have i couldn't imagine being like this 24/7
He should be in a psychiatric care setting or group home.
Agreed. Oh wait, if you have an addiction or mental illness, you have to PAY copious amounts of money here in the US. Damn.
Jennifer Parker Actually there are many group homes, available to people of any income amount, including those on medicaid. The problem is they need social workers to help them through the process of getting this set up. These social workers are available, but these mentally ill persons must follow up on their appts. and on taking their medications in order to make this happen.
exactly. this guy is perfection for a mental hospital. the work of a mental physician, the art even, is to deal with guys like that. when you see a video like this you could realise how serious psychiatry is. someone depressing or things like that is nothing compare to having to deal with people like that. you feel at any moment the guys is full of unconstructed/not managed emotions. Not like meths addicts crying for nothing or other kind of drug addicts. This guy have a mental disease, and really, really, should consult psychiatry or even being taking care by some fancy private clinics.
NOT IN AMERICA BABY!!!! USA USA USA
I have dropped A LOT of LSD, many different times (over 10 years) and I am not even close to as messed up as this. He has many other things beside LSD use going on.
Yes sir. I'm thinking meth and crack. Being up days at a time.
People have mental breakdowns sometimes due to any psychedelic. It's possible lsd or whatever he took threw him into skitzo
Ong bro acid don't make me tweak like that 👀😂
Schizophrenia.
My thoughts as well, I have taken lsd nearly 2000 times ( not including shrooms) in the course of 40 yrs. and no issues. I think some people already have pre existing mental health issues, that may be triggered from a bad or high dose experience.
He must have done a lot of lsd.. in my younger and more vulnerable years I dabbled with acid and I remember getting in a loop and remember friends getting in loops and forgetting who they were. Be careful frens. Bless this poor man.
You have to have him back on the show. And let him just talk for hours. People will watch it
5:47 "my older sister, she had a WHACK POTATE"
I'm sorry I couldn't stop laughing
rare blood type
Joseph fine lmao 🤣🤣🤣
😭😭😭
He said she had a whack blood type
This is exactly how i felt when i lost control of my mind one night. never touched it again after that.
Facts. 1st trip was perfect, 2nd turned bad towards the end and 3rd was bad the whole time. Never even had a thought of trying it a 4th time.
This is incorrect. The title you were looking for is "LSD ABUSER"
That man is a Spunion.
This is the most addicting channel to watch. As a former user of most of these, I find there are many paths a human can go down with each. My question is, why are we evolving this way? Using substances to escape our own minds?
If you look closely, Steve didnt give the middle finger at the end of the interview. He threw up the devils horns to say "rock on man."
But he did at 5:32 ...

@@skeletonking2352 Lottery tickets are non-addictive, yet there are so many people buying them every single day. LSD (along with any other substance) can be mentally addictive, depending on the type of personality. Sure, there's a tolerance, but it takes around 24 hours off of it to pretty much get back to default. Addiction does not necessarily mean a physical addiction.
Kevin Acid Not sure what acid you lot are taking but a full tolerance ends after 2 weeks. After the first 4 days you need 150% of original dose to feel the same effects
This guy seems like hes been in a HUGE thought loop for like eternity, extremely painful to see as to any normal person it would most likely be torment.
I imagine on the inside hes screaming for help
God bless this man.
He has probably seen the eye of RA and it wiped his senses clean.
You overreached!
Much love regardless to this man
There’s a documentary on Netflix called the sunshine makers it talks about the people that produced acid during the 60s they talked about regularly taking 2000 mics of acid by accident while working with it. And while they may be a bit odd to most even in there old age they are still just as sharp and articulate with there words. To say this guy just did a lot of acid and got fried is kinda sad to me because there is obviously something much deeper at play here so let’s not write it off as an LSD problem. It’s a mental health problem.
Not everyone that takes lsd will end up with way.
This man might be suffering from severe mental illness beside the lsd use.
Or from what I expect, an outcome of a lifelong experience of drug abuse, mental illness, and homelessness.
you guys are forgetting childhood trauma
@@univuniveral9713 I agree I totally forgot about the factor of childhood development. That is half of it probably in many cases more than half who knows. Life is a trip.
@Rose Gold No I am trying to spread awareness and knowledge of drugs. We shouldn't keep the wisdoms of drugs hidden and taboo.. We should "normalize" drugs, we should all understand the power of substances and instead of condemning them and being ignorant of them, we should spread awareness and factual truth from experience and data collected from years of research. Otherwise who's drugging who?
Rose Gold everything is a chemical. However lsd is much less harmful than alcohol and cigarettes and is mostly good for you.
9 : 11 “chemical drug” ok like most drugs, thanks for that one. And LSD doesn’t mess everyone up in the long run, actually it’s doesn’t affect most people who take it negatively in the long run
Imagine this man healthy again and listening to what he has to say about how he felt
Would love to see it, absolutely
"What Leary took down with him was the central illusion of a whole life-style that he helped create... a generation of permanent cripples, failed seekers, who never understood the essential old-mystic fallacy of the Acid Culture: the desperate assumption that somebody... or at least some force - is tending the light at the end of the tunnel."
- Hunter S Thompson
Wow, thats crazy. My experience has been totally different. I've only used LSD for a couple of times and its always been a pretty good experience. I have been extremely depressed for as long as I can remember and I used to be a cutter. I had been suffering from nightmares and sleep paralysis for every night for many months but after I tried it the first time it was gone. I could finally have a good night sleep. I dont remember the last time I had a nightmare. Generally it has helped me to be a happier person. I have started to get back in touch with my religion too. But again, thats just my experience. Some of my friends have had bad experiences and really gotten panic attacks. Its sad to see it but honestly i get it. When you're tripping i think you just kinda have to let yourself go with the flow and just enjoy yourself. Thats not easy for some people especially if they have some really harsh stuff going on in their lives.
Unfortunately I don understand what he said, but hoping he finds a way to get better ♥️
This has nothing to do with LSD. LSD does not cause motor and cognitive impairment like this. LSD can cause psychosis and derealization, but those are very different than what is displayed here.
