can LSD really fuck up your mind?

im not talking about prolonged use, im talking about experimentation. But i value my consciousness more than anything and i dont want to lose any.

do some people feel you are not messing up your mind, just entering further into the subconscious? opening this for awareness?

yes this thread is partly in response to peter poppers thread :toetap05:

 

no it does not "fuck up" your mind, but it will change you. how it changes you though, is up to you.

 

^yeah really. It enhances life and perception one way or the other. Pre-lsd we choose our reality, and post-lsd it is the same, only more pronounced and with greater depth. if that means you are at your core angry and frustrated, lsd will bring that out (but I don't know if that is a native trait in anyone).

I haven't looked at anything the same since tripping; I think I sorta get what Leary meant by dropping out. You do lose grip on something, but gain so much more in spite of it, or another way he put it "when everything is given up, everything is gained."

I'm eternally glad for what I've "lost" by taking lsd. We're in some seriously uncertain times, and the anchor of ethereal certainty I acquired from lsd has allowed me to let go of this reality in such a way that I feel everything will turn out well, and this is is the way it's always been done.

 

Drugs affect everyone differently. LSD is no different. Although it maybe a rare occurance, one dose of LSD can "really fuck up your mind". It's one of those; "you pays your money and you takes your chances" kind of things.

 

thats something that im worried about. I really wanna try it but everybody says that is dangerous and that one hit can fuck me up.

 

i await the right mindset, circumstance and setting before i delve in

 

wannaknow, it's up to you. there's always gonna be scary stories that make one squeamish about tripping. If you have self -confidence and you go into the experience with no fear, it is awesome and worthwhile. But if you can't picture yourself doing it with that attitude, you're better off waiting till you feel ready. I found that reading as many trip stories as possible helps you get there. Read the good and the bad (erowid.org) and you'll see patterns. Certain things lead to bad trips, certain things lead to good trips.

 

You can minimize the dangers.

First know yourself. Do you consider yourself reasonably stable mentally.


Next find a guide. Someone you trust, who will take it seriously, someone who has taken LSD several times themselves, someone who has been a guide to others.


Set aside at least 8 hours, you don't want to feel rushed.


Think of a place that's relaxing for you, myself I like being outdoors in the woods or near a lake.


Last, MAKE SURE OF YOUR SOURCE, MAKE SURE IT'S LSD!

PS If you decide you can fly wait till you've come down from the LSD before you try it or if you can't wait try taking off from the ground not from a tall building.

 

i think what Kizen REALLY wants to know is if the LSD is bad for your brain overall. Like will it kill brain cells, etc. I have done my research and asked alot of ppl.

I know this one person that i really trust and i know for a fact hes experianced in taking LSD.

Hes clean nowadays but has told me to not trust the LSD being passed around nowadays because it blows holes in your brain.

My friend and I BOTH know for a fact that the LSD that Albert Hoffman systhesised (if thats even a word but u understand what i mean hopefully) wasnt toxic to your body whatsoever and you could take a unlimited ammount without anything going wrong with your body(liver and other organs.)

The only reason ppl would die would be because they would commit suicide and other random things like that. I myself have tried stamping before and apparently the stamps were faulty cuz i didnt feel shit.

I REALLY REALLY want to enjoy that experiance for so many personal reasons and Im more than ready to take acid.

I dont even worry about having a bad trip cause theres no reason to BUT the only thing i worry about is the acid going around nowadays.

Does it really affect your health more than it use to?

EDIT: Making my post easier to read. Also SHOW ME FACTS IF YOU CAN. DONT JUST POST WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT LSD NOWDAYS. I WONT BELIEVE WHAT U SAY MOST LIKELY

 

I think i might make a new thread asking this question to get more answers cause Ive really been wondering and wanting new answers for that question

 

LSD, even the "acid" now a days, definitely does not "blow" holes in your brain. This is the lamest myth i've ever heard and more of an X myth it sounds like. You've done your research eh? well where is it man, Show us the documentation that proves your idea. I believe you are a royal host of SHANNANAGANS.

I just really don't like when people spread myths about cid when they don't even know much of anything about it at all. Really research LSD and stop spreading bull myths about dear old Lucy.

 

Alright so in my research i havent found any RECENT information that LSD is unhealthy. I take back those SPECIFIC words that i stated.

Like i said when doing my research ive only found tests that have gone on and the outcomes have been really only suicides on huge doses of LSD. Which i dont really care cause im not stupid enough to "induldge" myself with that ammount.

BUT i still believe what my 87 year old friend has told me. For example take a look at all the new rolls that go around. You stupid fuckin chemist are always putting new shit in it to make it stronger ( like cocaine, meth, etc) Why cant you just leave it at PURE MDMA?

I have a feeling the same has been going on with Acid and its being synthesised with new chemicals which do damage to your health.

Ill stop posting here cause I still have no valid information or real life friends that have witnessed this.

And im not spreading Myths, This is my opnion, so for all i care you can fuck off.

Does anyone else have ideas on my point of view besides this lame fuck that called me a "royal host of SHANNANAGANS. "

If enough ppl post the same views ill get over my ideas cause theres no reason to be that stubborn, amiright?

 

it's like finding out santa clause isn't real...

you are making revelations, disillusionments... by finding these things out, YOU will change the way you perceive the world

 

yeah u are right... ok thats the deal:

Sometime ago i become with the feeling like nothing is fun, everything is boring like go out with friends, normal things in life are boring to me.
I guess it starts with an E night i have, it was so magic ,everything was so perfect i felt like God was in my shoulder lol. Since that nothing is fun, i dont know...

Then i heard about the power of LSD and i have done all research, read all kind of topics about it, and now i wonder if LSD can help me to find whats up with me, help me to find myself and to look to life with other eyes.


Im afraid that it will make things worst but if it depends on me and what i want, im sure that it will worth because ill go for a trip with a mission, change me and my life to the better. I feel like i have something stuck inside me that need to be released, cant explain that feeling..

So, thats why im not sure, because i dont want LSD to "get fucked and see shit", i want it to improve my self and see the mysterious world of the mind

Now, i am stable mentally, not a very happy person atm, but stable mentally. I have time and calm places to have a sweet trip, thats not a problem at all

Now i need u to help me to decide if a trip will worth in my situation.

Ok sorry for the shitty english and the boring post

 

i wouldn't say my mind is fucked up, but i do see trails pretty much 24/7 now. and Ive had a few dozen flashbacks. but Ive tripped a lot. with responsible use I'm sure that wouldn't be a problem

 

imho we now so little about lsd and how it actually works that a definite question is virtually impossible...but in geeral any drug can mess you up...common sense should always guide you in your adventures

 

LSD is so much more incredibly potent by mass than E. With E you need at least 75 milligrams for a good roll, with L you only need 300 micrograms for a breakthrough experience. THere's a lot more to be gained from adulterating E pills than to dilute L. With how small a dose is required, it doesn't cost the chemist much for each given dose. Generally it's either acid or it's something else entirely; degraded acid is common, but impure acid is not. There's not much room on the tab for anything else:biggrin:

 

Research LSD.. best off being done when you're on the fine line between sanity and insanity, 8 hours into a trip. That's when your questions will be answered.
And as for L fucking you up, how many of us drink? Yet there's MUCH less concern about the dangers imposed on our brains from that Devil's piss water.
If you're well accustomed to the acid ride, I can't see how it'd fuck you up. Then again, I've set foot on the road to a bad trip in the past (luckily got off it too) and in that instant of uncertainty, I can see perfectly well how people may get the idea that they are FUCKED FUCKED FUCKED.
I've seen a friend lose his mind on acid, give him the notion that everything will be fine when he wakes up no matter what he's going through now, and he just spiralled down and down. The next day, he woke up happier than ever and felt as if he wasted the trip by worrying. He says now he's been in, through, and out the other side of the acid black hole, he wants to trip again with a fully open mind - putting worry aside. He'd previously had a much weaker tab and enjoyed it. I guess when he temporarily lost his hold on the exterior World for the first time, he bit off more than he could chew.
I know my acid, but feel as if I'm disrespecting it by shedding personal experiences and explanations of the way the drug flows. I've took acid in different settings (some places I really shouldn't) in a quest to see beyond and get onto things that normally wouldn't phase me at all. I'm still coherent in the modern society-driven country. It hasn't fucked me up... Psychedelic Trance has saved this mind on way too many occassions.

 

Well burnabowl pretty much answered my question. Hes the only person on these threads that gets straight to the point and gives a great answerr to questions.

I cant wait till i trip- just need a solid connect down here in miami which is hard as hell to get.

 

if your scared then dont do it. simple enough.
