alot of people have told me to only trip 3-5 times a year to avoid psychological damage... is this true, or just more bulls*&t rumors???
First of all you really need to analyze psychological damage. What is it? what are the people you talking to saying it is? As for tripping frequently and functioning in society, I would say that they both can be weird. If you trip often you kinda get used to it and what was really weird becomes really normal. After, when reintegrating into society, what used to be normal can seem really weird(like human behaviors). as for the word damage, I would say no damage but that all depends on what the damage is. So, what is psychological damage?
I do psychedelics very often (as much as my tolerance will allow), and i have noticed a change in my perception of the world about me. I've become more empathetic, but also more aware of my own personal needs, so my judgement is based on that quite a bit...
Trip as often as you feel comfortable. Don't limit yourself to a certain number of trips within an arbitrary period of time, and don't overdo it either. For myself, as a general rule, I would feel quite comfortable with no more than every couple weeks, but at least once per, say, six months, to keep challenging and exploring my mind.
I think the bigger risk of doing it too often is that it may lose its magic and you tire of it. I've done acid for a little over a year and I've only tripped 7 times total. works for me. When I was a little younger I did shrooms too often and I think they lost their potency for me cuz they hardly give me effects when I try them these days, except in "ideal" settings.
I dont think the amount or frequency of your trips has anything to do with any psychological damage. It could happen on your first trip or your thousandth or not at all. I used to do it every weekend for a prolonged period of time and quite a bit before that without any adverse affects. i think. Sometimes i wonder if im going mad. but if i was going mad would i believe i were sane?
It depends if I bang my head when I trip. I sometimes trip more than once a day. perhaps my shoes are too big.
there is no number, as some said before go with the flow, I have 10+ years tripping and for example last year I could have done acid like 50+ times (yup almost every week even twice a week on some ocations) on the contrary this year I haven't trip at all and I do have my stash over there, know where to get as much as I want quickly but I just don't feel like to at this moment, so I haven't
