#'''Long term memory suppression''' - This is the complete failure of a person's long term memory. It can be described as the experience of becoming 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 one's ability to recall their concept or sense of self and identity. The experience of this is colloquially known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ego_death ego death]. It results in the profound experience that although one is not unconscious, there is no longer an “I” experiencing current sensory input; there is just the input as it is and by itself.</onlyinclude> | #'''Long term memory suppression''' - This is the complete failure of a person's long term memory.
