I've experienced an insanely high 'High' (yet peaceful and pleasant feeling) very much like tackattack describes it for 8 weeks while I was in hospital and I ended up getting diagnosed with the possibility of bi-polar due to the kind of psychosis I experienced. I then had a weird residue of the feelings during my recovery and I still take 800 mg of Lithium a night now. Now I feel very empty then suddenly pretty good then suddenly very empty again. Dunno if that's anything to do with the drugs or if I am just not the sort of excitable person I used to be (apart from for brief moments).
It takes a long while to come off a drug like Lithium even if it's thought to not be required anymore, I have to come off it very gradually. Unless I have a 2nd mental episode I'm not confirmed as actually having Bi-polar and it may have been a 'one off' due to a lot of stress and other factors.
One can feel the most amazing things when one is delusional... and heck, I would have believed anything back then, if someone mentioned the holy spirit, sure I'd believe it. I was super high and ultra gullible. I was high and could have easily attributed it to the Holy Spirit. I don't see how being high and attributing means fuck-all. You have to have some way of genuinely knowing it is the Holy Spirit if you are to claim it is... and I know of such way. How can you know what the 'holy spirit' feels like? And personal experience isn't remotely valid evidence for such things anyway (as I said, how can it be anyway - how can you discern what the 'Holy Spirit' feels like? That's crazy).
