Where do you go when you need to escape but can't actually go anywhere?

Inwards. Imagination, media, substances, meditation, solitude.

To an extent I feel your position, and it can be true in many contexts. I would say, however, that taking a trip to a far off country, and dropping acid serve two different purposes. While I'm sure there's some overlap, you won't get the entirety of the experience from either one exclusively.
