I can never seem to fall myself alseep after LSD very easily at all. Actually thus far I haven't, I usually fall asleep the next day sometime. I'm calm, I'm relaxed, I feel like I should be sleeping. But it just doesn't happen. At times I think my body falls asleep, but I know I'm sleeping, almost like I'm just turning off my body and letting it recharge. But my mind is still completely aware of everything and is sitting there wondering when it gets its break. I'm just so intrigued by everything I don't want to sleep, even my body falling asleep and sleeping is intriguing, so then my mind stays awake and pays attention to that... but still apart of me wants to sleep completely. Does anyone have this issue? Have you ever taken sleeping pills afterwards to get to sleep?
i'd avoid come-down drugs as much as possible. try different holistic herbs and teas as relaxants, such as skullcap, chamomile, valerian (valerian pills smell horrible, but they pretty reliably knocked me out when i used to use them to fall asleep at night), etc. you never know how an obscure drug like LSD might interact with other pharmaceuticals, and in any event, your body and mind have just gone through a psychic rollercoaster ride, so it's better to go easy on them. until you've exhausted the options of herbal teas and infusions, meditation and yoga, listening to relaxing music, and just keeping your eyes closed for a long time to see if you drift off, i'd steer clear of anything serious, but in the event that all those have failed, you may just want to plan your LSD use so that you have plenty of time to come down and shake it off completely before you should go to sleep. an example of this would be dropping at 7 AM so that by that night, you'll be totally done and can sleep as usual. maybe also drink lots of water and take niacin and b complex vitamins to flush your system?
You remember our discussion about sleep before? Don't even think about it, enjoy the ride while it lasts and when you become sleepy go to sleep. There is no reason to think that you should be tired because you didn't sleep, that thought trigers what you are complaining about. When you start thinking about sleep and specially leck of it, your mind starts doing what it usually does every day, tells your body to sleep. But if you are thinking how much energy you got and start moving and doing something you like, mind doesn't trigger that "go to sleep" to body. Just don't force yourself to go to sleep before your mind is ready to sleep. Have you ever taken sleeping pills afterwards to get to sleep? No, but I did take more drugs to stay awake and happy for another night (..and another, and another...10 nights).
I didn't take pure lsd but i had 3 weakish acid tabs and took a sleeping pill several several hours after i had finished tripping as my body was exhausted but my mind was still going, and seriously just don't I tripped balls, I was hallucinating so intensely and it was scary, more so because it was un expected, I cannot describe the things i saw
95% of my acid trips i have dosed up around dinner time, that means the 12 hour mark is around the time that the sun comes up. usually by that time i'm pretty ready to go to sleep. yea i've had trouble getting to sleep even after that sometimes. don't really know any remedies, i just hang around and smoke pot till i get tired. sometimes ill try watching a movie if i really cant sleep. i'm pretty tired during the week after a trip sometimes too. i think its just because of the lsd, but could also be because i stayed up all night. i'll try to keep track of how many hours i slept that night and try to catch up over the next few days.
drop in the early afternoon if you want to get to sleep at a somewhat reasonable time. i do have a slightly hard time falling asleep after LSD, but i usually just stay up late and go to bed when i get tired. or i lay down and watch some tv or something, maybe to distract myself from the fact that i'm not tired and i may feel like i need to get some sleep. i know that 2ce is about 10 times harder to fall asleep after. that just makes me feel like garbage right around be time. i toss and turn from the gut-rot. haven't taken 2ce in quite some time for that reason.
Falling asleep on acid is impossible for me. My body and mind are just bursting with energy, even 20+ hours since dosing. Whenever I trip now I make sure I have some opiates, valium and strong indica bud. That shit ALWAYS puts me to sleep. It's probably not the healthiest thing but doing it on occasion isn't that bad.
I've taken a half tab before when tired as shit and fell asleep within a half hour.. Those half asleep dreams were fuckin amazing. It was obvious the lsd was influencing my dreams and mind as I was asleep.. so now from time to time I take a small piece of a tab before falling asleep to have some extra fun dreaming experience. When ya wake up, you wake up to a small acid trip depending on how much ya took.
