lately, I have been having this urge to drop acid. Should I go along with it or should I resist temptation?
But I just want to do it once, to test the theory if it can really be a "consciousness-expanding" experience.
I don't know, friend...How trusting are you of the people you are around? Will one of them be sober whilst you trip? There is a lot to consider when you decide to try LSD. Don't make this a spur of the moment decision.
LSD isn't addictive. Here's a key list of questions to consider before you trip: 1) Will someone experienced tripsit for me? 2) Am I mentally stable enough to trip? 3) Will I be in a safe place I am comfortable? 4) Will I have the next day to rest and recover? 5) Have I read much on this?
I think I mentally stable enough to trip... and I do not really think I need a tripsitter. I want to trip alone, in the woods outside my town... I want it to be "freak-out" experience of descent into darkness, and then the heroic re-emergence out of it.
i've been looking everywhere for some. make sure you read up a lot on it. erowid.com has some good stuff. make sure you're ready for it. read read read. it's not the same as cocaine or heroin. nonsense like that is like white noise.
if your lucky enough to be able to get acid, i say go for it, and it can definatley be mind expanding and spiritual... here, check out nathans thread http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=68527
I say go for, LSD is not in the same class as herion or crack or cocain, it is not addictive. Also, depending on how much you take of course, you should be able to control yourself just fine.
Yeah, if I can control my emotions... then I can control almost anything. This whole episode is an exerscise in descent into darkness, into where the the world becomes loud and overwhelming, and the conquest of this world through control to gain new knowledge.
I think that would be great setting for it, I don't know that you'd have a freak out experience though..
I have also made a compilation, that I am gonna listen to for the duration of my trip. Here are the songs 1) "The Forest of Black" -- Dirty Filthy Mud 2) "Hideaway" -- The Electric Prunes 3) "C" -- SubArachnoid Space 4) "Roller Coaster" -- 13th Floor Elevators 5) "New Day Rising" -- On Trial 6) "Our Celestial Flow" -- Lamp of the Universe I could only thinnk of 6 great "acid-trip" songs. I will add more songs to it.
yeah... they are more accessible, too. But Acid is something of a classic. it is much more of an "intellectual" drug than shrooms.
well you can read the thread i linked for one, there is suggested reading in there....also more good advice... tripping is not really learning how to control things....that is usually how you have a bad trip, trying to stay in control and plan things out...

Bring paper and a pen or pencil (or more if you're gonna lose 'em.. ) and write down what you're experiencing... that can make for some... odd... songs/poems/stories...
