Book of Revelation. Past, Future, or Visions??

People have many different ideas of what the Book of Revelation in the Bible means. Some think that it already happened. Some think it is a prophetic book that foretells of things that have yet to happen. Some believe that whoever the writer was, he was writing about nightmares he was having or possibly drug-induced visions. What do you think? Did John write this book? Was he on drugs? Has Revelation happened? Was it just written as a metaphor for what happened during the persecution of Christians during the reign of Emperors Nero or Domitian before Christianity was tolerated early in the 4th century A.D.?
