Is it possible for you to feel bad after you have had a massive adrenaline rush? I went sky diving today got such a fucking buzz, but now it feels like im hung over or coming down off something like MDMA. So yeah could it be the adrenaline or something else, like altitude or cold, was -12 at 13,000ft.

No. Your adrenaline would have worn off in a few hours, it doesn't make most people feel "happy" when coming down either. Your more likely to have involuntary muscle spasms or just shaking hands as your muscle want to move with the increase in oxygen, blood pressure and adrenalin.

I fancy skydiving some day, did you go solo or tandem?

On topic, not too sure what would cause what you're experiencing. Perhaps a sort of fear of what you did coming through a bit maybe?

Where did you do it Vilham? I keep meaning to do it, but it's so expensive.

tandem, you can't solo unless your qualified, which is what im going to be doing next.

yeah thought about the fear thing, but tbh I was most afraid going up in the plane, when I was in the door I was pretty relaxed and same when I was free falling. Such an amazing experience.

How was it? Hopefully going to go soon - can't wait!

And yeah apparently the extreme feeling of adrenaline makes everything else seem weak in comparison. In short: you're an adrenaline junkie..which is a good thing.

I remember the first time i got in a high thrill ride. Holy fuck that shit was intense. Thing climbed to the heavens then STRAIGHT down to hell and up and down and curve and up and whatever.

Later that day I had gravity malfunctions lol. I was sitting down and feeling like in freefall and back up and down and whatever.


Weird.

You can't really put how good it is into words. Best experience ever apart from sex while in free fall which would top it.

Yeah. Although my bro did a tandem after a solo and said it was boring because of the amount of time you were falling. It's an expensive hobby..nice to hear you enjoyed it though.
