    i have never done acid, but i have done shrooms many times and it is really a lot of fun. i would recommend them to anybody for their first time. i ate about half of an 1/8 the first time and it was a good amount because i didn't trip hard enough to freak out, but i still had a good time and had some good visuals.

    i have heard acid is a lot more intense than shrooms are.. but the trip is different for everybody.
    but my vote is for shrooms

    I recommend waiting at least a couple more years before experimenting with psychedelics. They will still be there. Focus on doing well in school and maybe get a new hobby or something.

    I went straight from weed to acid, nothing happened but it was risky because I could of seriously freaked out. Acid's a lot more intense that shrooms so if I were you I'd get used to a shroom trip first then move onto acid. They're both fun.

    Never had a bad acid trip. Have had bad shroom trip. Couple hits of acid and some weed to smoke here and there is my style.

    the thing is neither one is more intence than the other (you take a large dose of either and you'll feel the intensity) and neither one is an "easier start" than the other. dose, external factors, and internal factors (thoughts and emotions) are what make a trip difficult or beautiful. iv done both more times than i can count. both are good medicine if your open to it, and both are bad medicine if your not centered enough for it.

    so my advice would be to seek neither out, but wait for the oppurtunity to present itself, and go with which ever one comes to you.

    also, iv heard it said many times that acid is more intence than shrooms. (its been said in this thread) but i can tell you iv witnessed far more freakouts with mushrooms than acid. high doses of mushrooms have the potential to completely take over a person. you look them in the eyes and they are no longer there.
    the thing about acid is, no matter how intence or uncomfortable the come up is, you reach a point in the trip when nothing matters anymore. its like you get so tired of holding on, the duration of the expirience makes you lose your grip, and then you'll find that letting go was the best thing you could have done. for this reason lsd has always been my preferance, but iv also found that it can do more help or harm to ones energetic body. which is somthing to be wary of.

    truly i cant recomend the use of either to anyone, though i still on occasion use them myself, and feel i own much gratitude to my expiriences with them in the past.

    life is a funny game.

    You should definitely wait a few years before trying any psychedelics.

    It does not matter which psychedelic drug you chose. But remember to take a small dose the first time!

    ...shrooms are way scarier then acid. so therefore more intense. if u dont think that then you havent gotten good shrooms. acid is a way easier and more comfortable trip.

    Shrooms and acid are both fun (so I hear of the shrooms, never done them myself). Acid is mostly pure lysergic acid so it's a cleaner trip than grown-in-the-dirt shrooms. Acid was my first psychadelic and I had a very beautiful, nice happy trip.

    I as in myself not everyone..feel that acid is more mental than shrooms, i feel lsd alters your mind and the way you think causing you to trip....it depends wheter or not your affraid of your brain...a low dose of shroomz just makes everything melt and twist..just fucks up ur vision and make everything look weird..lsd really change your mindset and interpretation on things...but remember EVERY CHEMICAL REACTS DIFFERENTLY IN EVERY BODY

    My 2 cents:

    Shrooms first. You are slightly more likely to trip harder on Acid. It all depends on potency and dosage of course. Hence, 'slightly more likely to trip harder on Acid'.

    Also, on average, a bad trip on acid lasts longer than a bad shroom trip. This is not always the case, of course. Regardless, once again the scale tips towards shrooms being a better idea.

    Keep in mind that your setting is more important than any of this.

    See it's funny, because salmon4me and myself moderate these forums, are both highly experienced with each substance, and disagree in terms of personal experience.
    My magic mushroom trips have always, and I mean always, been much more intense than my LSD trips. Whether it was an eigth or an ounce of mushrooms, or one or 8 hits of LSD, the magic mushrooms always get to me more. Surely this is the reason why I prefer mushrooms, because I love the intensitiy and LSD just doesnt give me that uncomfortable edge Im after. I feel that you find more about yourself through pain and adversity, and thus when you get through it, will be left with a much more satisfied, euphoric sense about yourself and your relative enviorment. LSD to me is mainly laughing and extreme bursts of energy to have as much fun as possible, with only blurred peices here and there of divine insight and revelation. Sure, the energy perception and observation of Mother Nature's mechanics are almost impossible to ignore during an LSD trip while on mushrooms a more intense trip is required to have enhanced vision, but the over all battle with the mind that magic mushrooms almost always force me to embrace leaves me with a much deeper sense of connection with our Nature, the vibrations are brighter and more apparent, and the internal visuals (closed eyes) are both at the same time seriously frightening and wonderfuly brilliant.
    With LSD, sure, it's pretty much a fact that the visual activity is what posters here are calling 'more intense', ie visual distortions are much stranger and playful, the bending and twisting and morphing effect on your enviorment dances out in front of your eyes in a way that magic mushrooms dont touch. But it is the effect that mushrooms have on the mind's eye, that in my experience, is much more profound, much more unnerving, and much more spiritual.

    I would suggest mushrooms

    first time i did them I laughed all night, it was raining on the show on my TV and then the rain sperad though my room. It was falling from my celing, alot of visual stuff like that. I felt completly burden free, like I was just able to live. Great feeling.

    Acid is going to change how you think, you will question things alot more. do it second, I did, it's a much more intense trip IMO.

    I think there are more side effects from acid and shrooms are more of an adventure.
