It wasn't that bad for me. In fact it was kind of seductive. The intensity lessened as time went on and I discontinued the topomax for unrelated reasons. But it was a very distinctive state and it left me a nagging sense that things arent what they seem. I never tried any recreational drugs but I can sympathize with the hippies back in the sixties....because it seemed like there was some great insight there just out of reach
