Filled with fear in a peaceful way?

of being so messed up on alcohol or really most controlled substances if you take too much that all you see are frames and gaps in between. i've only done this once... twice where i had too much of certain substances and its really similar to blacking out but different. pretty much its like i have my eyes open and thats the picture. someone hands me the polaroid of what i'm seeing. i look at the picture, acknowledge all the details. get a very confused feeling and dont remember what i'm saying or doing here. hey someone handed me another picture! theres another still frame of what i am seeing. sorry if this is confusing... i'll put it this way. the average human sees about 36 frames per second or something like that so you perceive events in close to real time. imagine that but slowing that down to 1 frame every 10 seconds. ever had that happen? its an incredibly eerie feeling... cant describe it better then that. i know this probably means that my brain was on the verge of completely shutting down or on the verge of an o.d. but its a feeling i wont ever forget. i'm thinking about making a short video of a coffee table and it would show pictures of polaroids being laid one on top of the other in about 12-15 seconds intervals. the picture would be snapped in real time and laid down on the pile and you would see about 20 pictures... or five minutes of footage. it would be a silent and very strange clip though... it would have to be a white coffee table.
