1.) I know that LSD generally propagates thought. But every time I've smoked weed since I've tried LSD, I end up having tons of philosophical thoughts that I can't help myself from scribbling down in a notebook furiously. I like having the record, but it's actually getting a little bit annoying. It makes it hard to use weed for a sleeping aid like I'm used to doing. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced something like this after trying LSD. 2.) A friend of mine that I just recently met in town (I just moved here) wants me to trip with him. I don't know him well yet, though he has been nothing but nice to me. However, I have always gotten a bad vibe from him from the start. I have no idea what it is, and I have nothing to back it. I'm hesitant to trip with him for this reason, because I'm afraid that the bad vibe will only be intensified. I'm just not sure what to tell him...? Or whether I should just try it anyway. Thoughts, experiences or advice? :] (Note: I haven't started any of own threads besides introduction threads for years now. I've been afraid to because of previous bad experiences on message boards, hahah.)
hello if thinking annoys you, seriously try not to think some people swear by this... if you trip with the guy you'll know the source of the vibe ((()))
I have consumed L and for a few weeks after, every time I would burn, my head exploded with ideas and deep thoughts. It is kinda like the trip just turned everything up for a while. It passed but a good trip always seems to bring it back on to some extent.
It's not really that thinking annoys me per se, it just makes it hard to get to sleep when so many thoughts are running through my mind And yes, I've thought of that.. finding out the source may be beneficial. I'm just a little bit hesitant of a possible bad experience. :]
I've never experienced many long lasting effects from LSD. I'm usually back to my normal, sparkling self within 24 hours or so - it should pass eventually but here's something to think about: When you develop a habit (any habit) you develop a brain chemistry/neurological pathway to match ie: You used to smoke to sleep so your brain equated weed with sleep and eventually it probably became very easy to fall asleep on weed (the more times you consciously smoke THEN sleep, the more your brain gets used to the process, therefore it expects sleep after smoking). You may have jarred your thought process/neurological pathway whilst tripping. If you DON'T like the behavior you display after smoking, make a conscious effort to change and it should get easier every time (as you re-develop that old thought process/pathway). I hope that wasn't too long winded of an explanation. Edit: I also saw that you have trouble sleeping because of "racing thoughts". I have this issue all the time. Here's what I try: Instead of trying to "not think", think about something you can really get behind without thinking much (like switching on some mindless television show in your head to veg out to while your body shuts down). Try thinking of yourself playing a sport that you love, playing an instrument, playing a game of cards, whatever you do for FUN. Think of this scene and only this scene. Go into detail, really get into it (don't just think about the visual aspects either-try to imagine the sounds, smells and textures that you would in real life). Next thing you know, you're waking up the next morning. Give it a shot! Also, I wouldn't personally trip with anybody I'm not absolutely 100% comfortable with, especially if you're hoping to overcome your sketchy feelings. Chances are high it will just make things all the sketchier, imho. On the other hand, I guess it all depends on a number of factors; but If you have to ask on a message board, I'm guessing that you aren't comfortable with the situation at all; if that's the case, don't do it. Hope that helps!
the thoughts should probably die off. as for tripping with this dude.. i think vibes are a much better indication than the social transactions you make
The first time i smoked i got really high and bugged out.. I had all these huge philosophical thoughts like your saying.. I then stayed away from weed cuz it scared me however that one time made me think about everything hard for a year untill i realized every time i smoked i realized more. I eventually starting using it as a tool and untill i figured out all i felt i could. Then came shrooms which were exactly like i imagined and it was just heaven. (only took 2 grams!) As far as the bad vibe thing, just trip with the guy. Trust me you'll completely figure the vibe out and it will probably work out for the better. I had a bad vibe from my best friend for years untill i did smoked with him alot and then shrooms. Then i understood it, but he really is a wackjob haha
i would trip with this dude, but maybe try shrooms or something less intense, or maybe less acid than you are used to. this will help you figure out the source of the vibe, as well as seeing how he acts tripping, without causing too bad of a freakout if he turns out to be not the best person to trip with.
Hey, thanks to everyone that posted. :] I was out of town, so didn't get to post until now. I'll probably trip with him, but use a low dosage... And I guess I like thinking even more. After all, it's helped me to write so much more. ^^
