How to illustrate a marijuana high?

i'm going to be making a indie film (drama) and part of it i planned would be my main character doing marijuana, how could i illustrate this in my movie what would it look like. please don't say theses two things "don't glamorize weed in movies" and on the other side of the spectrum "why don't you try yourself" i really don't feel like even taking a risk of being in trouble with the law (yes i do know that weed isn't very bad for you but it is still illegal) thank you so much, and if you can than can you describe an acid high and dmt high (the movie is going to be mostly based around dmt) the movie is going to be a movie about the connections to peoples thought religions and how some of this might be caused by dmt and my main character is going to sort of go crazy in a way, but i have a lot cooked up but don't want to share any more right now



thanks so much everyoneHow to illustrate a marijuana high?
My answer was too long to post so I'll send you the whole thing later. Here is some of it. You should look up Timothy Leary's model of the 8 circuits of the conscious mind. Your normal person usually operates with their mind in the third or forth circuit depending upon how mentally mature they are. Marijuana elevates the conscious mind to the fifth circuit, while acid to the 7th and DMT to the 8th. The higher your level of consciousness, the less you view the world with your five senses and more with the sixth sense, (the mind). The part of the brain most effected when on psychedelics and hallucinogens is the somatosensory cortex which is heavily responsible of our perception of reality. It acts as a filter that allows us to distinguish the real from the imaginary. This is why people think drugs are "bad", but the results are temporary. The only reason we have a "mind" that knows who we "are" is because of short term memory that our brains allows us to have. All that is happening while on these "drugs" is the barriers between our memory banks function a little differently and mesh if you will, so that we have a greater disconnect with any previously perceived notion about our reality. Basically you are viewing the world more like a baby with less bias. The "filter" gets thinner and thinner and when you are experiencing consciousness in the 8th circuit there is virtually no filter and you experience the world from a most pure state of mind without any judgments or dogmas and you loose any perspective of who you are. Your ego becomes ripped clean away. For some this is looked at as a negative thing, but for others this can be a very spiritual experience because they become closer to the cosmic consciousness, which is the consciousness of all that ever was and all that ever could be. According to many quantum physicists, theoretical physicists and Einstein himself, space and time are one tangible substance that create a grid that can be manipulated by gravity. When people do acid they all seem to have one thing they see in common, despite all their other "hallucinations", and that is a glowing green grid composed of vertical and horizontal lines everywhere they look. I have not met anyone who has done real pure acid, (most of what people do today is not real acid and is very harmful) and did not see the grid. It is speculated that this grid is the grid of spacetime itself. Also when you are on acid, (again real acid, not the imitation stuff that people make from batteries and other garbage), you have absolutely no idea what you look like. Really you just do not know. If you were to look at yourself in the mirror it would be like looking at a stranger for the first time. You are looking at the world with a more god-like consciousness so therefore you are more pure with little or no biases. You really can only perceive your mind/ soul/ spirit, whatever you would like to give that which is without a physical body a calling. You really have no opinion about yourself. You are experiencing the 7th circuit. The hallucinations people have on acid are not crazy random and outlandish as popular culture portrays. Colors become more vivid and everything becomes distorted and meshes together and them you begin to see the grid. On acid you loose and beliefs you had about your world and literally anything becomes possible. This is why you hallucinate. DMT is quite similar but much more intense. The brain, more specifically the pineal gland naturally produces DMT on a daily basis when we sleep. Without it we could not dream. On DMT, nothing looks the same as you previously knew it. You are literally in a different world. You have little or no control over your body. Some people even say that while on DMT, you are experiencing the real world, beyond the three dimensions and that you have an out of body experience. You really have no sense of your physical body, only your consciousness, while on acid you can sense your physical body but have no perception of it. This is the 8th circuit of the conscious mind. Plants with DMT and similar molecular structures are found in Africa and south America and have been used for thousands of years to "get closer to god" and "fly with spirits" so they say. It is also known as "The Spirit Molecule". There is also a book called, "DMT The Spirit Molecule" written by a doctor named Rick Strassman if you would like to learn more. Also for some inspiration about acid, you may want to watch "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas". It is about many trips the creator had. In the scene where he sees people as reptiles he is on acid.
I'll tell you about a bad trip I had when I smoked weed laced with PCP. I felt like I was swallowing my tongue so I went and drank some water. When I drank the water it started squirting out of my skin. Then the walls started to melt and I was sucked into a whirlpool.How to illustrate a marijuana high?
Take a look at the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers cartoons. There's good stuff right there!How to illustrate a marijuana high?

Kind of like this picture (cross your eyes until the two pictures meet in the center); objects seem two dimensional in a three dimensional world. Reality looks like a pop-up book (but way less pronounced than that picture).
