tripping

when one is in a serious state of disarray, as when under the effects of drugs; but sometimes drug-free situations can induce tripping also

I'm tripping over my last midterm grade; I'm headed for some serious failability.

tripping helmet

A handkerchief or similar piece of fabric used as a headcovering, created by folding said fabric in half diagonally, placing folded edge against forehead, and securing it by tying three points into a knot at the back of the head. Traditionally worn by young males who are often involved in recreational drug use, hence the term "tripping" helmet.

Dude, I am, like, so high. Let's put on our tripping helmets and go play ultimate.

tripping balls

A state of mind where one accepts that reality is no longer present, thoughts no longer make sense and that for the next couple of hours many absurd occurences will take place. It is achieved when the individual surrenders to the madness generated by their brain to the extent where they are almost revelling in it, despite how utterly ridiculous things have become.

The state is brought on by consuming drugs with visually brain-mangling psychedelic effects.

If said with a smile, one can assume the user is in a state of blissful confusion and wonder - but if said with a look of fear, one can assume the user is terrified and extremely paranoid.

<Steve> Dave, you alright?
* Dave is looking around at things with a look of extreme interest and happiness on his face.
<Pete> I'm tripping balls mate!

<Steve> How about you Pete?
* Pete is shuddering, wide-eyed, and looking incredibly sketched out.
<Pete> I'm tripping balls mate...
