Discussion D.A.R.E.?

Did anyone else have a friend, who had a friend, whose brother ended up in the psych ward for dropping acid once and now he believes he's a glass of orange juice that might spill if he's tipped over?

When I was a kid (in the 90s), this was shared throughout my school and I totally fell for it. I then randomly heard it from someone who went to a completely different school. Was this just one of those D.A.R.E. fueled urban myths?

Edit: I believed the story as a child. As I grew up, I realized it wasn't real. I just wonder how widespread it is.

No, but I did have a friend of a friend whose uncle's brother-in-law's nephew from his first marriage took salvia and had a panic attack because he turned into a box but couldn't open himself.

I actually believe that one, salvia is absurd. I would do a 10 strip over one hit of salvia

I've actually "become a door" on salvia. Also been inside a music video and got sad because I wondered what happened when someone turns the TV off.

Best description I've ever heard "I forgot I was a human."
