Me and my friend are both trippin on acid for the first time in the next few days. It will definitely be out in nature. Is there anything I need to do to 'prep' myself for the journey? I know its imperative to have a good mindset. But anything else? Tips from experience? Ive tripped on Molly before and that's the only "major" thing. Ive done the usual pain pills. Huge stoner... <3 mary jane. Ive never done a psychedelic before but I've always wanted to. I'm super excited. I really want the best trip possible. Thanks
good choice on nature Where are you going? I recommend you go near a river, its beautiful to see moving water Bring some fruit with you and you should drop first before you smoke, smoke if you want once you are already in the trip but for somepeople, including myself, weed just hazes the experience
This. And i agree about the weed thing. when your tripping u can have a pretty clear head but for me and most people i know, as soon as u get stoned u spend the rest of your time trying to work out what you were thinking 1 second ago and as soon as u remember u've already forgotten again. It isnt necessarily a bad thing but i prefer a clear mind for the trip and smoke afterward to chill out when u've come down and thinking about sleep. Bring an mp3 player with some of your favorite music as well. Music is great on acid.
I don't know about you but I found that on my first trip (a couple of weeks ago), which was out camping, I a) had no problem eating a hearty meal halfway through, b) got really really thirsty for some reason- may have been the hiking but who knows- and c) had the urge to lay down every so often. Luckily, I had food, lots of water and a sleeping bag on hand! There's no telling what your trip will be like but just for good measure, I'd say at least bring these three things It's better to have things you might not end up needing than to not have the things you end up wanting, right? Other than those basics, comfy clothes that are warm/cool enough and a positive mindset with an open mind and no expectations are all you should need going into this! Happy tripping, my friend!!
This totally and entirely. Your mind at first will try to reject what's goin on, but then just say to yourself: "I wanted this, this is how I'm supposed to feel." I said that to myself when I started getting anxious on my first time, trip was a delight!! Have a lot of fun for all of us!
Thank you so much for the replies... all of you! We have a pretty cool fishing spot where we go to a lot. Its really beautiful. Really green. I will definately be bringin the ipod. I can't wait to hear that guitar from Hendrix and that voice of Bradley Nowell! I read before that fruit is really good. I have a real 'excitedly nervous' feel in my stomach. The trip will happen by the end of the weekend (probably saturday). Ill definately make sure to post back.
I also seem to have a hearty appetite trippin, after the peak. But it has to be very wholesome, natural food. It's just a whole nuther trip to interact with the food, it's like it has its own consciousness that interacts with yours and the consciousness of your cells.
I can see how that would work man. Were definately bringing along fruit and water and things like that... I can't wait for the trip. Is it ok to have a nervous (but excited) energy in your stomach? That's the feeling I get when thinking about our trip coming up. I read a lot of trip reports for future reference and it says to approach LSD with confidence but caution. I'm definately giving it respect if that makes sense? I'm sure I won't have a bad trip but just want to be in the best shape possible (mentally). All I can think about is 'Turn on, Tune in, Drop out. I said that to my best friend that I'm trippin with but didn't ring a bell = /
I had one of the best nights of my life. Acid is what its made out to be. I understand what you all told me and what I read on trip reports *set and setting*. I can see how a bad trip happens. Like words mean nothing right now trying to explain what I feel and trying to put a sum up on my trip. Maybe that's just it it can't be described without talking for days... its such a trip. I had this wild experience where we were riding around when all of a sudden this huge dog ran behind the car and along side my door... it was so crazy. Me and my tripmates couldn't even comprehend it. Wow I really just need to not try describing how good of a time I had without a night of sleep first. Sorry if this makes no sense. I'm kinda scrambled right now. I'm so happy I'm one of the million to dance with Lucy.
God damn i love the fucking patterns from acid....A good mindset isnt needed, the curiousity and the want to have the experience is needed i think.....Having a good mindset i would say just gives it the extra funk. I havent tripped for awhile though, but god what a day that was.
Marijuana can have some psychedelic properties if it's really good, but it's really not considered a psychedelic drug.
Good to hear you tripped your balls off mate!! I've had a couple of friends try it for the first time and even though it was a good experience for them they don't seem like they are too gung ho about doing it again. It almost makes me weird for doing it on a weekly basis.
And I'm really happy that it worked out for you, PeaceInTheStreets! I'm delving into the world of acid soon, as well. All of a sudden, I have a few possible ways of getting to it, and I might end up using all of them. For someone that's been trying to find it for nearly a year, I feel quite encouraged, but still not as happy until I actually get to it!
Man the patterns are crazy... I loved staring at the sky. The stars were beautiful. I got kind of freaked out for a while because I would see this same head in the top of trees but I knew I was just tripping face and was fine... I just loved the whole experience. It totally blew my mind... at such a loss for words
Yeah dude I know you totally understand how crazy shit can be for you on acid... we did kill a racoon tonight though : ( rip to that racoon. It was so cute it was on a backroad. It was walking toward the car we even slowed but it ended up under the tire... we felt so bad. That happened like 20 mins after the dog was running beside the car (which almost found itself under the tires) God damn we were so utterly lost... we laughed for hours
