how to trip more intensely ???

well i'm quite new to the this scene... (have been doing acid for like 8 months, have probably dropped 30 times)

BUT was wondering if you guys knew of any ways to make one's trip more intense without buying more drugs.

i have personally found that after doing any physical activity (skating, going to a concert, playing soccer) and then smoking a joint, your trip really intensifies. when i take one stamp and do this, i feel like am on 2.

i have also found that bad-tripping also makes the trip a lot stronger...

so do any of you guys know any other ways????
thanks

 

Marijuana smoking can definitely increase a trip.

30 trips in 8 months? You probably just have a very high tolerance to it.

 

um, distancing out trips more?

30 in 8 months is a good bit.

my best trips have been after like a 6 month break from psychadelics.

 

Doesn't LSD not build up any tolerance? But I guess that just goes to show how it's more of a psychological drug then physical. As you probably do have a tolerence built up, just because of the repetition, not chemically.

And yeah, I would take a break for while before tripping again if you want it to be more intense.

 

It takes a sober mind to fully appreciate the LSD experience, before and after.

If you have built a tolerance to LSD, you wont be getting all that you can get out of the experience. Especially if you are doing it again a week later, and another week after, and so on...see?

 

trip all by yourself in a pitch black room. that's pretty intense.

 

ummm idk, but every time i drop i feel its pretty awesome,


like with other drugs i used to do in the past, i will gain tolerance very quickly,
but with lsd, things are different.
how hard i trip largely depends on my mind, and not how often i do it.

 

no acid actually builds up tolerance very fast, it is good to space your trips apart so you can take in what you got from the trip. over time you can learn to control your trips more so you can make yourself have more intense trips everytime you use it, but thats only if you space your trips apart.

and as for making it more intense, smoking and meditating are probably the two best ways to increase your trip.

 

I believe the tolerance goes up rapidly for a day, then drops off very quickly too, but I don't really remember.

 

Physical tolerance builds very quickly with daily use but, except for people who are permafried, goes away within 10-14 days. Psychological tolerance is obviously a whole different thing that is going to depend entirely on the individual.

Bad trips can make the trips a lot more intense, but I think that because people tend to be more in touch with their negative emotions and thoughts. The ecstasy of a good trip can be every bit as powerful as the horror of a downer.

I really don't think LSD is any different from life. My experience at a Phil show last night confirmed this. I felt like I was tripping face even though I only had a couple of beers. The music took me completely out of my body and out of my mind. I was at once both completely removed from the crowd and completely one with it.

If you want more visuals, relax your mind, your body, and your eyes. If you just want to experience more intense stuff, just do whatever you find to be intense in life. If music is intense for you, listen to music. If watching porn is intense for you, watch porn. If playing a sport is intense, play a sport (but be careful, of course... shoot hoops with a buddy, go for a jog in a safe place, etc.). What's interesting is that sometimes what we find to be intense while sober loses its intensity while tripping, but this itself is an intense experience because it the change in perception is often thought-provoking. I've had some incredible masturbation sessions on L, but I've also tried it and failed completely (never had sex on L, but I have on weed and I had the exact same experience). It just lost its meaning completely... the desire to have an orgasm wasn't there, and I wasn't in touch with my body. Another example of the whole reversal in intensity was during my first trip about three years ago, my sober sitting buddy wanted to rent a movie, and one of the few things we could potentially agree on was Pet Sematary, which I saw as a kid and I think it's one of the scariest movies ever, especially with my childhood expeirences with it... counterintuitively, I knew that watching the film would have no effect on my trip (and it didn't), because I was completely absorbed in my own mind and my life. Whatever draws your attention is what will be intense. If you feel pulled towards your piano, go play it. If you are pulled towards nature, walk in the woods. It's just life. Try everything. One of my favorite things to do when tripping is to floss my teeth. It's a routine that is important to me in my daily life, and it gets me in touch with a my body, my motor skills, my values (hygiene, the importance of which varies day to day hahaha as well as taking care of myself... my mom really stressed dental hygiene growing up, so I remember that stuff, too). Sounds really stupid, but it's awesome. I posted a thread about it a while back and some people laughed while others got it.

But yeah, 30 trips in 8 months is awfully frequent to keep up for so long. You actually aren't a noob at all, in certain senses of the word... a lot of the more valued posters here, you would be surprised to learn, have only tripped 2-10 times. And then there are people like Neem Karoli Baba who understand a lot more about tripping before they've ever even done it than most people could ever understand after a lifetime of studying it.

So, yeah, take at least a month off, if not several. I'm not sure if I will ever trip again. I probably will, but it might be several years before I do. After my first trip, I waited almost a year before my second. Then I waited almost another year after that one. Then I waited a few months, and then I did it a lot for a couple of months, and then I stopped. The most valuable experiences were the ones that were spread out. At the end of my use, I wasn't learning anything because I wasn't living enough life in between trips for it to matter, and I wasn't varying my experiences enough (although I did walk from 86th and Broadway all the way down to the Village and back on one tab with a close friend... that was a highlight). Take time off, think about your LIFE experiences... everything good and bad from LSD comes from your mind and life, so don't focus on the drug, focus on what happened during the experience, live life, and follow your heart while you're on it.

 

Since I did 5 hits 2-3 weeks ago I'm still not ready. The thing is, you don't really "come down" off an acid trip, because acid doesn't take you anywhere. It just wrenches your true self into the spotlight and leaves it there, naked and confused, but as blissful as a lotus leaf floating on a river.

That stays with you for a long time. I'm waiting until I need to have my true self shown to me again, because I am losing sight of it again, or something.

OP is abusing LSD imo, and is treating it like a lollercoaster ride. That's fine, and have fun, but understand that until you change your attitude about LSD it's just going to remain a lollercoaster ride.

Change attitude. That will change actions. That will change Mind.

Then wait.

Then wait.

Then take acid.

 

I think this is a good example of one quote that said LSD is a non specific amplifier of the mind.

Great advice in that post too.

 

Well that's how LSD works pharmacologically . . . it randomly stimulates and depresses parts of the brain, with no seeming rhyme or reason to it. That's as much as we understand. That's why each trip is different.

Of course those are just the surface chemical interactions

 

Thank ya

 

umm i don't agree with Mr. Writer's comment on how I treat LSD as solely a lollercoaster ride....

I DON'T

(plus you base your assumptions on your experiences with the drug, what makes you think i react in the same way?)

 

Instead of taking 1-2 hits 3-4 times a month, just take 5-10 hits next time. Then see how often you want to do it after that.

I know I sound snobbish, but you really don't understand what acid is or what it does until you reach higher dosage. Your use alone tells me alot about your attitudes towards lsd. It's nice that you say "I DONT" in all caps without elaborating, that really convinces me that you take it seriously and are not just trying to defend your e-honor .

I also doubt that anyone reacts radically different than anyone else on LSD aside from mental factors influencing the trip.

I would also consider that long term lsd use causes schizoid-like behaviour, and so it's even better for your health to just do larger dosages much less frequently than the introductory dosage 4 times a month for 8 months +.

Do what you want, what do I know

 

lol somebody is getting a little feisty....


Perhaps I did not elaborate on the "I DONT" because there is too much to elaborate on.
Not to mention that two capitalized words are more compelling than a whole description of how LSD has changed my life (which you might consider puerile, since you describe yourself as a snobbish individual)

I also doubt that everyone reacts similarly enough for you to come up with such conclusions about my usage.

I would also consider being more open minded about how other people use this drug, or have one of your epiphanies revealed the universal pattern of human thought?

I do what I want, how should you know?

 

i dont suggest it, but do while you are sick. like the flu or a cold or whatever. its horrible.

 

E-honor. Hahahaha, funny shit.
