can you describe the experience a little further? do you think you are just becoming more aware of the changes in your conciousness and thus feeling like a different 'character'?
i find this very interesting

It's interesting that weed alone did that much to your friend... he's lucky
. I'm curious about what your friend is like normally.
Well the time i was in the jungle castle I hadn't smoked at all. I was tripping on some jerry bears, listening to Porcupine Tree (On the Sunday of Life,) and burning a Sacred Smoke incense. I don't exactly remember coming into this place, I just realized that i was seeing rich green leaves with gold trim and shimmering tips. I'm not sure how i came to think that it was a castle, maybe it was because it was so beautiful... but i was sure that i was in a castle, made of jungle forest. I believe that the castle went away when the sacred smoke incense aired out..... or i may have just come down off of a wave and stopped noticing it. I found this place again for a moment when my second incense was burning, but i don't want to say the the incense is all that did it, since all three things and myself played a part in the whole experience.
I was sitting cross legged half under my table and actually looking around at this jungle, so not like your friend, but i also didn't have any other people in the room with me to possibly distracted what i was seeing in my mind.
Yes, i do think that i am becoming more aware of the changes in my consciousness, but also, this is my main point, i think that i am connecting to different possible consciousnesses - in parallel universes. I guess i am becoming more aware of my 'greater' consciousnesses. "Mind at Large" - Huxley
Weed never effected me in this way originally. And i think that this is because i didn't know that, or how, i could use it to go to other places.
~Also id like to add that i smoke scarcely.
When i do it and i am not ready to take myself somewhere, or to let my mind go somewhere on its own, the experience just ends up being stressful.
And I find that too much smoke makes me less capable of understanding different ways of thinking, twisted jargon - in school, and expressing my thoughts concisely. I think that weed almost uses up a certain something which our minds/brains (i don't know which) gathers in un-high states. Before this last time I took a huge break... so i guess in that way it was sort of like what happened with you and your friend.
