okay so i havent had much experience with psychedelics but ive done shrooms once and i kinda freaked out on it but not that bad. i had 3 grams of shrooms and i didnt get all the visuals i expected to get so i want to try something with more visuals.. my friends keep pressuring me to cid with them but im worried i would freak out realllly bad and go psychotic or crazy or something. im just worried ill have a bad trip if i take acid becuase i freaked out on only 3 grams of shrooms. should i take acid? or what can i do to prevent having a bad trip?
NO! Don't do it because you're pressured...don't do if you're already freaked out. Tripping isn't right for some folks and you'd be wise to listen to your heart. If you wanna try stuff stick with the nature based psychedelics. Plants you can kind of know what to expect. Some of the shit people claim as acid now is weird shit and I wouldn't mess with it. Trip because you want to not because someone is pushing you. Find your time and blow your mind on your own schedule. Just an old hippies thoughts
So what if you have a bad trip? You will learn something from that. It's necessary for some. There's nothing you can do to prepare, your mind being what it is at any given time. The way I see it, if you have a nice and pleasant time in a trip it's largely a waste of time. Take it to change your mind, not for the visuals.
Well to begin with, mushrooms can vary greatly in potency, 3 grams can be a big dose, especially if you are not experienced with psychedelics. This I agree with, psychedelics aren't for everyone. This is not accurate at all. Plants vary greatly concerning potency, as I already said. LSD is pretty consistent, different "batches" of blotter or whatever may vary in potency, but overall tend to be much more consistent than substances in raw form, and effects are also more consistent and predictable. One other very important factor is the nature of the experience. Mushrooms tend to be a bit "harsher" in regards to emotional/psychological content, LSD tends to be "mellow" in this area. It will and can elicit emotional responses that can be rather powerful, but not in the same way as mushrooms. I refer to mushrooms as the "Great Accuser" because of the tendency they have to really dig into ones psyche and dredge stuff up. Granted 99.9% of the time it reveals issues that should be dealt with, but it can do it in a rather merciless manner, whereas LSD is much more forgiving and gives you more of a third person perspective. Mushrooms tend to put you at the center of the cyclone. These are my opinions based on over 30 years of experience with psychedelics. Most important note: DON'T EVER TAKE A SUBSTANCE BECAUSE OTHERS ARE PRESSURING YOU TO DO IT, THAT IS ONLY ASKING FOR TROUBLE. If your friends can't respect your wishes and let you make your own choice, are they really good friends?
its not that i just want to do it becuase my friends are pressuring me.. ive been wanting to do it for a while becuase i think it would be a great experience if i had a good trip. i was just worried id go crazy on it
