this needs to be pinned. everytime i come on this part of the site, a lot of people are asking what the first trip is like. so i'm gonna sum it up as far as i can sum it up. if you want to add owt, feel free first things first: you WILL be with someone else until you comme down, preferably someone who's had some form of experience how much should you have? i can't say. if you space out taking tabs, its won't hit you like it should. my advice is take what you want to take. i did this when i started and there's nothing wrong with me now is there? =| now, basically, if you have a lot you're more likely to hallucinate, more likely to have more fun, but also more likely to get a bad trip. that's all pretty obvious. bad trips. one of the 2 risks (in my opinion) of acid is having one. it can make you believe its the end of the world, or that you're gonna die in a horrible way. this can tap your mind quite bad, to the extent of extreme cases where people get lost in their own world - coma's being possible (i have witnessed this. its not nice), but this is rare. if you're positive minded, a bad trip is a rarity. most often, you will get a trip that might scare you a bit if anything hallucinations - the other risk. if you hallucinate on a small dose of lsd, then it won't be that convincing, but will be funny for a lil while. if you've used a large dose, you're gonna believe anything you see or you're told, and this is where having someone with you is useful: so they can tell you to chill out or bring you to earth if you need it. bad hallucinations are as simple as believing you can fly, causing some people to jump off buildings or the like. thankfully, most people either have enough control to stop themselves doing this OR never acctually have enough to have such a hallucination. lsd is about control. be positive minded, and make sure you keep with reality as much as you could. happy tripping =) (and someone pin this)
i think people / 1st timers worry too much about bad trips. if your mind is in a good place before you trip it wont happen. worrying about bad trips all the time is a pretty good catalyst for a dark trip, ime. my advice for a 1st timer is trip somwhere you can be comfortable, explore what lsd is and have fun blasting away at your pre-concieved notions of reality.
