#'''Ego death''' - This is a complete failure of a person's long term memory. It can be described as a total loss of control in which the person becomes completely incapable of remembering even the most basic fundamental human concepts stored within the long term memory. This includes one's name, identity, home town, that they are on drugs, what drugs even are, what human beings are, what life is, what existence is or what anything is. The most notable of these however is the loss of ones sense of self. This results in the profound experience that although one is not unconscious, there is no longer an “I” experiencing ~~the intensity of the trip~~, there is just the ~~trip as~~ it is and by itself.
