I have two fear disorders, and want to do acid but i'm not sure. I don't have a psychose or anything, and no one in my family does. Doing shrooms 6 times in 2 months went fine on me except for very slight HPPD, so I think I'd be pretty safe doing it. I can get some for newyears eve, I'd probably take like half a blotter or even less since I'm very sensitive for psychedelic drugs, but.. would it go safe? No drug ever made my fear disorder worse before, but I'm not sure if it falls under the psychosis-area.
I haven't had many chances to play with Cid, but the times I did I was in comfortable surroundings and in 'party mode'. I think Cid has a tendency to amplify the feelings you already have, so if you're apprehensive of taking it, it may negatively affect your trip. Basically what Beckner said, wait until you're comfortable with the idea until you try it. The good trips are great, the bad ones (I hear) really suck.
Fear for illnesses, from tumors to the flu, anything. The other one is emetophobia, fear to vomit. i never got fear from any drug btw, never got paranoid from them. Not even when feeling sick from shrooms which with my seccond phobia could have been a problem So I guess it'd be ok but I must wait till my mind has the right admosphere I guess.
Oh well youre ok then i guess... I tohugh you meant panic disorders or stuff like that... If you never got paranoid off drugs well it probably wont happen with acid...go for it! Happy milk comes from happy cows.
Well you are not going to like this but here is my opinion. Someone who uses terms like HPPD and Emetophobia worries me. There are two types of people who do that. One is a very bright person who has been interested in psychology or medicine for several years. The other is a person with an unhealthy amount of introspection. The type of person who reads up everything possible on their illness. That is a sign of someone with borderline personality disorder. If you are in the first category, enjoy your trip. If you are in the second stay as far away from acid as you can. If you have a little crack in your worldview, acid can turn it into a big crack. How in the hell do I get off giving advice? 1. Over 100 acid trips - back in the day when it was much more available and of better quality. 2. 6 years of medical education and 14 years of working with people who had problems with drugs. No one but you need know what category you are in. But that is the best advice that I can give you.
I don't have a borderline personality, I know what it is, and I know for very sure I don't have it. Except for the two phobia's I'm actually quite normal. *And I have an IQ of 137, with a natural too high amount of curiosity and interests, the bright part might just be right.
I encourage you to disspell your thoughts of possible HPPD, once you trip sompthing in your brain seems to open and will always, hopefully, remain so. Do not look for signs of HPPD as i did this once after reading about it, then realized i am building it up and and am just thinking that i am experiencing it. It is amazing how powerful the mind can be at producing false perceptions such as this. You will have no worries with HPPD as long as your smart and do not do hallucinogens very close together for long periods of time. Have fun, as lsd is a wonderful experince full of beauty.
