Thought acceleration can be described as the mental process of thought being sped up significantly in comparison to that of normal sobriety. When experiencing this effect, it will often feel as if one rapid fire thought after the other is being generated in incredibly quick succession.

Thought acceleration will often synergize with other coinciding effects such as analysis enhancement and stimulation in a manner which not only increases the speed of thought, but also signifigantly enhances the sharpness of a person's mental clarity. It is most commonly induced under the influence of stimulant or nootropic compounds such as amphetamine, caffeine, and modafinil. However, it may also occur under the influence of many stimulating psychedelics such as certain LSD, 2C-B and mescaline.
