trippy
Like acid visions
Trippy describes something reminiscent of a psychedelic drug experience—disorienting, surreal, or perception-altering.
The term comes from the slang sense of trip as a hallucinogenic episode.
Visuals might be trippy: That music video was really trippy.
So might experiences: It was trippy running into my ex at my therapist's office.
