    I've only tripped on acid one time - I took one single hit, saw a TON of crazy visuals, but no mental effect... and the mental affect is why I wanted to take it. But anyways, on to my situation...

    When I took that hit, the come-up was really uncomfortable because I got very intense jitters. I could not stop from shaking. I can't stand jitters as it is (I used to take Vivarin for school, it made me really jittery), and I don't want them while I am coming up. Is this just because of the acid I get, or is this normal? Is there any way to calm them down?

    I'm concerned because I'm going to take two hits on Friday, and I could barely stand the jitters that one hit alone gave me. Thanks!

    Yeah, it happens...
    deep, slow breaths through your nose (pranayama)
    and marijuana if you smoke it.

    these two tricks always soothe my soul.

    I was thinking that a toke would help, but I'm not sure if I want to mix the two quite yet.. I want to get a feel for what acid is like all on its own, but I'm definitely considering it. I know that it helped on the comedown last time.

    I don't go into the realms without it, and I don't go there very often. It's been quite a long time...

    Synergy, is what they call it. It's beautiful.

    How long did they take to kick in?

    You know you have pure LSD when you feel effects @ around 30 minutes

    if it takes 1.5-3 hours you know you got DOC, DOB, DOM, one of those.
    Lots of people sell research chemicals as "acid" these days.
    It's a shame.

    Welp, let's see.. I took the dose at 10 pm, and I started to feel the comeup within about 45 minutes, but nothing really major - just like something was different, the crazy jitters, and I could NOT stop smiling; my face hurt. When I stood up at around 11, I first felt major effects. I felt so tall, it was like I could touch the ceiling.

    Question though! Um, what's DOC, DOB, and DOM?

    they are other chemicals that last a really long time, that's also how you can identify them. I think they are phenetylamines, but I'm not sure.

    sounds good to me. my advice? Dose hard somewhere beautiful. You'll never forget it.
    I always bring grapes, water, and chocolate when I venture into psychedelic wilderness. bread also calms my stomach.

    this is just my 2c, you will soon find out for yourself what works for you :D

    Haha, I want to, but unfortunately where I'm from acid is rare and random, and I could only get two hits this time. My first time, I was at the beach for awhile, and it was definitely my favorite part of the trip. Thanks for your advice!

    I always get a bit jittery on the come up too.

    I find that as stalk said, deep breaths through your nose, and bud help. Also, try doing something to keep yourself occupied. It's much worse if you're just sitting still.

    It is normal to feel lots of wierd things in the come-up. Just sit through it, or run around or whatever - do something to take your mind off things and at some point youll realise you are tripping

    my advice: dont smoke the ganja until at least half way through your trip, or alternatively be stoned all day

    I believe there are a few different types of acid. The first batch I ever got was "speedy-trippy", and I had to be chewing on sth the whole time..my mouth felt like taffy and sometimes it was hard to get words out..like my mind wouldn't work with my mouth sometimes and I would start to laugh a lot...

    The last batch I got was the complete opposite..I was full of energy but I felt in total control, no mood swings, I felt very "even tempered" and blissful..so I could sit there and chill while frying listening to music, go outside for a walk, talk a lot and be open to everyone and about anything, etc..plus I noticed the 'dancing' visuals were not as prevalent, like letters and stuff, but more colors and intricate patterns would form all around me like I was in another world...crawling carpet, breathing walls, mirrors changing shape, morphing objects and light bulbs changing colors, not to mention all the "foreign" sounds of sirens and vibrations..I know for a fact that both were LSD-25 too. Maybe one was simply more potent than the other, but it seems there is more to it than that.

    I remember hearing about some stuff called "lavender" or "fluff" before, I believe...nevertheless, I know where it comes from and always from the same source.

    Try doing stretches, like lay on your back and put your feet in the air and stay like that, then try lifting your legs from the floor back up over and over again. Doing this sort of streatching or yoga asanana always helped with being cool during the comeup.
    Not that it bothers me too much anymore, I usually sit still and quietly and watch the world turn until Im turned on.
    God Bless

    I honestly consider jitters or shakes to be a physical manifestation of a part of our psyche that is too attached to the physical body.

    When the temporary and forced upliftment of consciousness occurs after one consumes acid, a shift in the relationship one has to the body and their physical surroundings will occur.

    This can be easy or hard, your choice.

    Thanks for the advice, everyone! It was really helpful. I'm glad that jitters are normal, it was kinda worrying me. Can't wait for Friday! ^__^ I'll let you guys know how it goes.

    Good luck, dude.

    Just remember that there's actually nothing to worry about and you'll be fine. :)
