Imagine your personality as a stain glass window, fragmented yet rigid, a menagerie of various experiences and inclinations. Psychedelics act upon your personality as a sledgehammer would against a church window, smashing it into pieces, leaving behind a chaotic mixture of fragments. As time elapses the window, your personality, slowly reestablishes itself, piece by piece. Nothing new is added, however, the mosaic may bear little resemblance to its previous configuration.
