Its been a full 1 and half years until my last trip. All my prior trips were wonderful, they were with some truly great people. Just this past week I got talking to a acquaintance of mine and we got on the subject of LSD. He said he could hits for $5, which instantly perked my ears up as Ive been hunting for some LSD lately. However he suggested I join him and his other friend for a day of tripping. Now this guy is not educated at all on the subject of LSD or drugs in general. He told me he knew a guy who died on 3 hits of LSD because he had a heart attack, and that he knew this other guy who constantly gets flashbacks from one hit he took years ago. This guy is your typical "I'll do it to get fucked up" user. That being said, would it be wise for me to trip with him and his friend (whom Ive never met)? I don't really talk to him much and theres just a general sense of "acquaintance" tension between us. I think I'll just buy a few hits and do them off by myself. Or would taking it with him be cool? On another note, recently in the past year or so Ive developed a case of strong anxiety towards a social envirmoment and even to myself. Is this something I should be weary of whilst tripping?
Id do it personally. In a little bit all his perspectives on that shit will be blown apart and put back together. Itd be nice to be there for some support, Id think, but then again it's all about you. If its not a situation youd think you feel comfortable with dont do it
if i were you id just trip with him, but have a mp3 player near by or something so that if his actions or ramblings begin to get to you, you can just say, "i love music when im trippin" and just put on the ear phones. but yeah, i feel ya, i get anxiety too around other people, especially if they are the "i just want to get fucked up" type. usually people like that are not mentally ready to handle all of the door openings LSD brings, so they say n do weird shit while frying... but then again, whos not weird when they're frying right? -Tos
if you despise his way of thinking then not a good idea. but if you simply think differently but are cool with the way he is, then go for it! social anxiety can be a bummer if you're expected to talk. most veteran trippers would have no problem with periods of non-talk. I imagine it's possible to have a heart attack on acid if you're already susceptible to heart trouble. but it's not fair to say acid "caused" the heart attack, at most it brought it on a few months sooner than it would've happened normally.
i find that people who trip together tend to make a bond that lasts beyond the trip who knows it could be the start of a beautiful new friendship on the other hand, if the guy is a tool and only trying to get fucked up maybe you don't have too much in common
use the trip to over come your weariness. Use it to find your strength. and try reaching an enlightened perspective. go to http://www.dedroidify.com and fill your brain with all that knowledge. all you have to do is pop a tab, look towards the stars, and enjoy life!
Ive done tripped with an acquiantance. But two of my best friends were there as well, and the girl who i didnt know was very chill and had done mushrooms many times. Sounds like your inexperienced 'acquiantance' could prove to be more of a burden than a blessing.
Trip with him and try to explain to him that life isn't always about getting fucked up. If he acts like an ass, just leave.
