Talk:Thought loop

So I've experienced this twice now. The first time was when I combined LSD with cannabis, the second them was only cannabis. The first time I experienced it, I wrote it down and referred to it as an explanation loop, the next time I remembered referring to it s a paradoxical explanation, even though I actually just came up with that on the spot. I experienced this situation as trying to explain something in a manner such as this: introduction leads to conclusion, however only if the introduction is explained by point a, but point a can only explain the introduction if it also explains point b, point b can only explain point a if it also is explained by point c, but point c can only explain the introduction which would therefore explain the conclusion if it is explained by point a, which has to be explained by point b and so on. In other words, it was like an essay that has three points to explain an argument, but the three points were codependent in an infinite circular manner, prohibiting them from ever actually explaining the conclusion. Then, these loops started expanding to the extent that I would have to get to point z in order to get to point a again, making seemingly incoherent ramblings somehow all part of the same thought process. The scary part though was how hypnotic and infections it was. It sent my mind into a rotating looping pattern which I could visualize, and that pattern started manifesting its self in everything. When I noticed the explanation loop, I would try to explain the phenomena from an external perspective, but and explanation loop would manifest in my attempt to explain said explanation loop. Then it got even scarier, when my less high skeptical friend who was trying to work me down and make me see reason, saying that I was blowing this out of proportion, started having involuntary explanation loops himself in his attempt to disprove them. Then we started having collective group explanation loops. Keep in mind, during this whole thing we were trying to have like a Socratic logic/ law type perspective about conversations and language. It was one of the weirdest thought experiences I've ever had
