It is more that you see geometric patterns in stuff like leaves and clouds. Colors are a bit more saturated. Lines that are supposed to be straight are wobbling, kind of like those optical illusions but in everyday objects. I also saw wallpaper patterns spin in my peripheral vision.

It is less that you see things that aren't there and more that the things that are there behave odd.

The biggest difference isn't in the visuals but in the way your brain thinks. You think about the world from a whole new perspective. And this effect persist after the trip. You still have the same personality, but with the insight of a different perspective.

Falling asleep doesn't change much. Your dreams might be more vibrant. But it would be a waste of a good trip.
