Hello : ) I'm new to these forums but it seems like a great place to get some feedback on what's on my mind. I've tripped on LSD about 4 times so far. I can't say 2 were good and 2 were bad because the 2 "bad" trips were actually very interesting. The problem is that I lost myself. I had never blacked out from anything in my life but I did in two of my trips and when I came to I thought I was still dreaming. If I hadn't been with friends I'm not sure what would've happened and I apologized to them for having to babysit my ass But I have some questions. My very first trip i took 2 1/2 hits and "fell asleep" listening to my favorite album The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails. If you're familiar with it, you can probably imagine XD It was really cool and interesting but it had alot to do with death. The next time I tripped I only had 1 hit and I just chilled in my room alone for the night, everything was cool. The 3rd time i had 2 hits again and my friend and I chilled in my room watching movies, playing WoW, and listening to our ipods (that's my favorite thing to do, just plug in some headphones and close your eyes) and I didn't blackout this time but I noticed that when I concentrated my thought on things it kept drifting towards the death theme from my first trip and I didn't want that. The 4th time, I blacked out again but beforehand and after coming to, the death themes were not present. So I guess my big question is does anyone else have a repeating theme in their trips? Does anyone have experience with avoiding negative thinking leading to bad trips? I've always been one to think deeply about things and I have alot of trouble clearing my mind. I find it difficult to just not think about things. Is this not conducive to a good acid experience? I know this was a really long post haha but any feedback would be greatly appreciated
I think you do not have enough experience to be traveling so far down the rabbit hole yet. Try going out in nature and performing simple interesting activites with friends. Try listening to some happy music while tripping like reggae or something completly new to you... Best of luck, try not to go so far into your head untill your ready.
everyone drifts towards the death thing i think a lot of my trips i felt like i had gone insane and everything was telling me to kill myself but you just gotta look farther past it
I would say Head is on the right track here. You need to get out of your little ignorant(not calling you ignorant) bubble of civilization and just go out OUT there and trip. Fuck the tv, and the computer, and your ipod. Those things are total garbage. Go fall into the sky. Argue with the ocean.
I think the only problem here is your problem with death. No better place to address this than in an LSD trip; which is probably why they keep going in that direction my friend. Don't run from it next time, but dive in as deep as you possibly can . . . and then more.
Yes accept the idea of death, see what lies beyond death, see what actually dies in the process of death. Don't be afraid, just accept it, be aware. With awareness you can transcend what causes you to have a bad trip. I myself have not had a bad trip in the past 20something trips I taken, you must experience the fact that there is ultimately nothing to be afraid of.
I'm really looking forward to when I get to do this actually. I love nature, I just haven't had the opportunity yet.
