Is tripping weekly too much?

In the past month, I have tripped on LSD 3 times, and mushrooms 3 times, tripping on a weekly basis. The only lasting effects I've noticed are things appearing to be moving slightly when they aren't. But that happens very rarely. I've become extremely forgetful, but I blame that on the large amounts of weed I've been smoking. So how much does tripping often affect how likely I am to become drug fucked?

 

yo dude, in the end there is no 'too much' or 'too little'. But if you want to know how much your brain is being affected, just look at what you are producing with your life. Are you able to control your hands well? or are you fumbling and having to refresh your skills more often? Are you able to read a passage and remember what you just read? Can you solve puzzles? Can you do your job? Society is designed for dumb people.. (so any sane person can definately acheive the things normal people are expected to do, even if they dont like it). if you can still use your brain, and do use your brain, you do not have to fear the effects of drugs. unfortunately that is easier said than done, because there is always next week to get serious...
I say that perhaps you should leave it for a month or two, just so that you have an idea of how off-set you are from your biological baseline

but if there is one piece of wisdom that I can sahre with you, it is to NOT make a habit of wake-and-bake

 

yes it's too much

 

ps. yer although there no absolute too much or too little, it sounds like you are taking more than is good for you

 

Okay thanks. Yeah, I'm not yet at the wake and bake stage yet. I smoke weed like 3 or 4 days a week. I should cut down on that, too.

 

I suggest not tripping too often although i probably wouldnt want to change the times in my life when i was tripping weekly over a long period of time. Trip as often as you feel comfortable, you should know when u need to stop.

And also try cut back on the weed while its still easy to do. When u've been smoking everyday for a while it's pretty hard to stop. usually when i try i just end up smoking even more lol

 

It most likely won't serve you well. So I'd say too much indeed.

 

Yeah, I don't think it's necessarilly too much, but stonerbill hit the nail on the head. Maybe cool it for a few weeks and see what difference there is.

I've gone through periods of tripping roughly weekly at least for a year at a time. Sometimes it affected me and sometimes it didn't. If you're not doing anything else with your life at the moment, then I'd say it's too much. If it's not affecting your studies and/or work then I don't think it's a problem.

I will say again though that giving yourself a few weeks off wouldn't be a bad idea, if to do nothing more than give your brain a break.

Peace

 

I've always thought that one day I'll get sick of weed, or at least get put off. I think that could happen soon, considering the substandard conditions under which I'm forced to smoke (undermining parents, trekking through muddy parks, not being able to clean the bong properly).

 

i used to trip every 3rd day for 5 years---and im old school the acid was mellow and no one could tell except by the eyes---super dialated

 

I am of the opinion this will harm you more than tripping on LSD or mushrooms every weekend. A regular cannabis diet has profound effects on your inner world that are too subtle for most people to pick up on their own.

yeah slow down the heavier psychedelic tripping to like once a month. that seems to be a much safer margin in general.

 

I concur with StonerBill's and Mr. Writer's posts, prob cut down on trippin to once, maybe twice a month, and def cut down on the weed. Once you hit the wake and bake stage, your always so fucked up you don't realize all the negative effects its having on your life.

 

I would say slowly stretch the span in between times you do psychedelics and smoke herb. Choose whichever time span appeals to your senses at the time. But if you are feeling fucked up even when you aren't tripping, you might want to take like a month off before you start dosing again.

 

yes it's too much definately, cut down to 1 LSD and 1 mushroom

 

Just a da' one!!!

 

Do what you feel comfortable with, and that doesn't effect your everyday life. Just don't fall in the trap of blaming the drug, it is your responsibility to maintain your body and life, which is completely possible with smoking everyday. Tripping every week can be a little more exhausting, so I would cut back on that, but smoking is not a big deal.

 

i know why you guy trippin out about the smoke? i love to self-medicate in the afternoons after work every night =) trippin weekly probably isnt good for everyone .. but might work for some, usually the people who dont over indulge on a regular basis.

 

i think tripping weekly can be ok, a long as you dont do it more than like 4 weeks in a row. sometimes ill trip every week for a few weeks and then won't trip at all for a few months. it also depends how hard you trip. in the end though, i say trip whenever you feel like, just gotta make sure you get your shit together when your not tripping so it doesnt interfer with your functionality.

 

i tripped 2 times a week---and know im insane--but who wants to be normal--i like being unique--and smoked daily for years--straight a student so quit being haters

 

You're not necessarily a hater if you think it's too much. Also, everybody already is unique and overindulging in psychedelic drugs don't make you more so. Being unique and being weird are two different things.
