I’ve hit the 5 day mark about 6 times in my life. The progression is so strange.

Day 1 I was just tired and felt weak, my muscles hurt and I might have a headache.

Day 2 I started feeling almost a little high, but it’s a high that also has many uncomfortable aspects like my muscles felt dry and very tight.

Day 3 and food lost it’s flavor for me and the hallucinations became irritating, looked like there were mice running around in my peripheral vision.

Day 4 and I didn’t feel like I was inside my own body anymore, like I was just behind it and slightly above it...my whole body felt like I was being poisoned and everything hurt, but in a very dull flu-like way that was constant and amplified.

Day 5 and I don’t really remember much, like literally my memory was destroyed, the hallucinations were constant and disturbing, it’s as if I was in a dream state while awake...I seriously thought about killing myself a few times, eating became almost impossible. I could only drink water and that hurt to drink. One time on the evening of the 5th day I fell asleep and had nightmares for what felt like a week but ended up being 36 hours of uninterrupted unwakeable sleep.
