Ok so its the day after my first acid trip, and was surprised how similar the trip felt to mushrooms, aside from obvious differences. I only took two hits, which didn't really give me the visuals I was expecting, but anyways there I am trippin with a few of my buddies, and I felt like i was analysing everything everyone was saying, and like trying to figure out what they really meant by what they said. Like everything had a hidden intention behind it. I don't know if I'm supposed to try to disregard it or what. I hope this makes sense to sombody, I don't really know how else to explain it.
Makes perfect sense. You were thinking too much, and you were struggling with the experience instead of just taking it as it was and enjoying it. It's a tough thing to master the art of chilling out, even for experienced trippers, but it is well worth it to practice, not only for the sake of your trips, but far more importantly, for the sake of your life in general.
so what would you suggest for the next dose? maybe two hits again, and try to disregard all of that? Or is it something I'm just going to master by myself in time?
Don't try to "master it" or you're going to be thinking about mastering it. honestly if you think you're going to be doing that and that it's going to ruin your time, I suggest taking more so that you can maybe focus on hallucinations andvisuals instead of your friends.
I believe that some people are able to take acid and sort of wake up to a whole new world. Yes most people have hidden intentions whenever they do or say something and that was revealed to me more clearly by acid. If you can master the new technique of understanding peoples intentions instead of taking their words literally it will help you in life.
Great point elfin1mf! Try more to feel than to think. You see, acid is helping you throw away some of the barriers that you put in your mind and making it easier for you to "feel" some other ways of "comunication". Thats why it is very common that group of people on acid start comunicating by telephaty or to exchange "feelings", or to have "feeling" that tree is telling them something, or to go so deep to just use vibration. Forget about common 5 sences (including words and sentences) and you will be able to "notice" these other things that I mentioned. Visuals are helping achieve this and thoughts are also very important, as you will notice that the group shares almost the same (if not same, depends on groups expirience) thoughts. Love is also very (if not the MOST) important, don't be shy to show and send love to everything and everyone!
when you think too much, you don't take the full trip - you have to be in the absolute best environment, and you shouldn't be thinking about anything - thinking rationallyand logically is like normal operating consciousness - you have to be 100% able and willing to and truly want to take the trip. Increasing the dosage wont make you trip more. Immediately after you take the 2 tabs, get to a nice medium high with weed. Make sure you're with someone who will not talk during the trip, make sure you have an easy to use stereo with plenty of good tripping music to listen to, like pink floyd and hendrix, ensure there will be no disturbances in your environment, and just wait, don't smoke any more weed at all, relax your body and mind, and let the trip come - it will be so worth it to take these preparatory steps - and remember, don't think, don't really talk, just Trip
that makes perfect sense. when me and my friend did acid before, we were at a party. mostly we stayed by ourselves though b/c we were the only two on acid. when we were outside we were talking to each other but our words were really garbled up and didn't make sense. but i always understood his complete thought and exactly what he was saying. when we went back inside though, no one knew what the hell we were talking about. sweet.
