Anybody feel hung-over days after sex?

I wonder, x123, if your hung over feeling is actually a psychological issue and not related to physiological chemistry. So, you say you have looked negatively at masturbation - any chance you have some deep-seated, maybe even subconscious, negativity toward sex in general? Or, could it be perhaps be something as simple as a lack of sleep?

I'm glad you mentioned that, because I have wondered about it too. I have never taken medications in my life, so my uncommon response to acid was completely natural for me. It wasn't the acid, because my friends took the same stuff and reacted more normally.

Another interesting thing is my reaction to ecstasy. It did absolutely nothing to me. My friend took the same stuff and said he felt like kissing me. I couldn't tell I had taken anything.

Finally, my reaction to antidepressants seems uncommon. I tried to take them about 15 years ago, but they made me feel so terrible that I had to stop. Everything smelled and tasted sickly sweet like molasses or something. Normally the only thing that gives me relief from depression is the good feeling after cardio exercise. The antidepressants made it where exercise was total drudgery with no good feeling at the end. I finally stopped taking those antidepressants, and the exercise started working again, and I started feeling 100 times better.

These things might be clues to somebody who understood brain chemistry. I think there is something strange about my brain chemistry, because I respond in uncommon ways to drugs.

^ When I took acid, I think my senses reacted normally. My eyes got dilated, and I would see tracers, and hear details in music. I was more impulsive. Like I remember standing in line to pay the cover charge for a club, and I suddenly decided to try to go past the bouncer without paying to enter. When I am in high places, I often imagine myself jumping off. Under the acid, when that thought came to mind, I instantly began to climb onto the railing of a balcony.

Mostly I just wanted the acid to wear off, so I could go home and go to sleep. It was like being in the waiting room reading magazines for hours and hours. I would see weird cartoon people morphing and so forth when I closed my eyes. I never felt enlightened or frightened. It was just "yep, I goofed up and took this again, and now I have to wait hours and hours for it to wear off." (Also time seemed to pass VERY slowly sometimes due to the drug - LOL - that made it even worse.)

Probably both of those are likely explanations. For me, sex is simply masturbation, and I felt a lot of shame about that most of my life. Also, I notice that I can't get into a normal deep sleep after sex. It's like I am cat-napping all night. I don't do well when I lack sleep.
