hey just wondering what you guys prefer: tripping at an event like a show/concert/movie or just doing your everyday tasks while tripping? although i noticed it's all the same in the end, which is why i prefer to do whatever i need to do. kind of like the man chops the wood and fetches water even after being enlightened.
For a while I would rather do it at an event like a rave, but I have recently grown to enjoy the average atmosphere a little bit more. At an event you don't really need drugs, but in an average everyday atmosphere drugs can make you notice and realize many new aspects of life.
The best thing to do why tripping, is not do anything! Thats the only way you'll get the full on experience. But once you've had a full on experience with it, then you can do other cool stuff while tripping. Riding a skateboard or a bike or scooter is fucking amazing! Hiking, walking through the woods, or climbing rocks is a great way to connect with nature. Swimming can be fun, if you can do it. Little things can become amazingly more rich on psychedelics. As for concerts and stuff, that is also fun, and its own kind of meditation. Tripping and going to see a band like Shpongle can do wonders for you. I feel my sense of music is heightened and I've actually become a better musician because of it. Plus you really become one with the music, you can feel it inside you. But like I said, the best thing to do is nothing! Because everything that is important and meaningful in a trip comes from the inside, not out. Just have a max chill setting where you won't be bothered, sit back, and enjoy the ride.
Also watching your average routine from the perspective of lsd trip can really put a different taste in your daily life. It is quite educational.
99% of the time would prefer every day. Might take a super low dose at some event, but any proper dose I'm gonna wanna be in home base for. But that's also because I'm relatively new to psychedelics and like to dose higher with them.
Yea for shows and recreational use, 1-2 hits of cid or about 1-1.5 worth of shrooms. You don't want to be at the local park laying in the mud laughing your ass off, and yelling to guy across the way, "Dan, dan you found me!", "I'm not dan", "aw come on I know its you dan! Dan come down here!". Cause that really happens. Haha
yea my daily routine just got shitted on today, everythings the same basically. them sugar cubes were needed today
so far I like to collect friends, set up an all-night party/home base, and then just start there and see where everyone ends up.
i used to eat it around midnight and sit in my bathroom in from of the mirror for hours. talk about a fucked up shit on time i saw two little guys come out of my eyes with cameras moving left to right in clicks.
The thing with taking acid 'at' something is that for me acid is already 'the main event', its already so much of a show that anything im 'at' will likely be a distraction, secondary to the intimate revelations and cosmic pleasures that are coursing over me.
I hate tripping on any substance besides MDMA in any public area. I always feel like I'm being watched, which gets me paranoid and I begin to freak out. I like to trip when I have a lot of free time to actually have fun tripping instead of being that ''crazy guy tripping at a festival''. And besides, you don't get the privacy you get when you're in public. Being under the influence of LSD may make you want to touch things and explore your surroundings, to be able to enjoy the effects instead of holding them back. How do you think that looks to completely sober people you don't know?
Going to some of these concerts on Lsd have been a life changing experience. It makes that feeling of oneness more real, by directly experiencing it in our own reality. Actually having other people that feel it too. The music, the people dancing, the harmonious randomness in things, all of it is one. The musicians and the audience waves are resonating off each other, getting higher and higher and higher, and because of all the crazy energies from all the different drugs, the energy becomes ridiculously high. By the end of the day everyone's minds are blown away, thousands of kids with there egos lost in the moment, thousands of kids become one ocean of dance. Those right there are real signs of the golden age, a thousand kids in these wacky times all out of their wits on drugs, and yet they are able to remain peaceful, no fights, no arguments, just dance, love, and positive vibes. Sometimes you can't even put 5 employees in a room without an argument, its really something of immense beauty. And Lsd helps tremendously to look at the big picture, look at everything happening all as one. By golly I love lucy at shows! But there is nothing like lucy by herself, in her own show, there is way more special effects! Like the mushroom once told me, do both.
i'm sure there are a few exceptions to what i'm about to say, but for the most part, there's nothing better than having 1-3 of your best buds over, taking a bunch of tabs, blazing and just watching your bathroom walls melt into castles over rainbow space...
i guess all atmospheres have their moments. i've experienced the need to be away from the general public to fully enjoy a trip as well as spent those nights at a friend's house just screwing around. i find when i'm at a rave or a concert i feel like people are watching me more when i'm sober than when i'm tripping...at that point i chalk it up to them all probably being on some kind of drug too if i feel heavy eyes on me. but quite honestly i prefer a day trip out in nature. i'm not gonna say i become completely one with nature...but i have had those moments where i've felt some kind of crazy energy as if everything around me would be talking to me if we had a familiar way of openly communicating. it makes me wonder what it feels like to be ageless and in tune with everything around me. i know my friends have felt it too..i dragged them away from the rave setting and out into the sun and they remarked "why have i been wasting this sitting in a dark warehouse all this time?"
I love just trippin on a random day, a day i have nothing to do. It really makes me think about my surroundings and what i normally do and how i can be a better person and its awesome.
Campouts are probably my favorite time to dose. As was mentioned earlier the desert is awesome. Later this year I will probably make a trip out to the chihuahuan desert region of Big Bend National Park. I long for that incredibly "lost" feeling to be someplace so remote, and so beautiful. The vastness of the place really sinks in after a while and its like you are in a dream. Looking at the stars from the chisos basin made me realize i would never be able to get over this place. I remember my desert excursion so fondly and it was over 4 years ago. Been dreaming about it ever since. psytrance parties and other music festivals are usually fun, but have the propensity for overwhelmingly chaotic trips. I have seen some folks freaking the fuck out at parties before.
Aw my favorite is going to a show with your buds, tripping nuts and dancing, then coming back to the hotel or the house, take another couple tabs or another couple stems, and trip the night away! I feel like the music and the dancing and being connected with people just prepares you so well, your mind is open, keen, and aware. Then blast another 3 tabs and your going to hyperspace in no time! Its lucy in the best of both worlds, the outer show, then the inner show! Woop woop!
