I'm really curious about LSD and I think I'm going to try it soon. But I really want to be safe about it. Does anyone have any tips on how to have a good first trip?
Yes, read all the other threads In a forest with bread, grapes, and chocolate. Musical instruments, and a person you love and trust. Or In your room by yourself with music If you toke Toke If you don't meditate You will. You should dance your ass off for hours at a pystrance gathering Or make sweet love to your darling. yadda yadda yadda...
Don't be with a bunch of dumb 16 year olds. God that would suck. No offense, man. Just trust me. I'm Stalk.
Be in a chill enviroment with people you trust. Get some glowsticks and some good tunes and just trip the fuck out!
have you done mushrooms before? i would recommend you do them first if you havnt. ive never done LSD before so i guess i dont really know what it does. i have done muchrooms on a few occations and they are horrible to eat but the high is pretty awesome. ive never had a bad trip with them just everytime ive laughed constantly and the walls and everything were like dripping. you probably have done shrooms before and thats whats making you want to do acid now. i personally wouldnt want to do acid id rather just stick to mushrooms they are good enough for me.
i like to stay natural... shrooms are so yummy.... i wanna go tripping right now cuz its snowing.....
Once on shrooms I was listening to a live version of Blackened by Metallica and I heard the crowd screaming and the song building up and it was like my head was gonna explode because we were listening to it so loud and then my friend turned the lights off (and turned the black light on and all of the flourescent spraypaint lit the room up) and I was thinking "fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck its so loud" and then everything was glowing and swaying back and forth. Then my friend started honking like a goose.
I also wish to try acid. I've done shrooms once and salvia about 6 times. Would it be best to do it by myself in my room? or outside with friends? considering i get prtty paranoid outside..
well, from my experiences, acid's reputation is a bit skewed. personally, I found mushies to be much more terrifying than an acid trip of 1-2 hits. Last time i tripped on doses, I was outside the whole time with tons of people all over the place (college campus). I took it in my dorm room expecting to trip there but you will get really ansty and want to walk around outside. It's fun if you dose correctly and are aware of the cosmic reprecussions of a bad trip.
Completley agreed, and I am someone who has dosed and eaten mushrooms well into the hundred's of times. If mushrooms have not made you cry for mommy yet, keep eating them. It's coming so it's better to be prepared. Last trip I had with LSD was 8 hits of potent blotter, right over the 100mic mark, and while the trip was proundly overwhelming and very beautiful, my last trip on an eigth of mushrooms has it beaten in terms of insanity by a thousandfold, nay, a billionfold! No joke, the mushrooms are Mother Nature's little temples that when put on the altar of your own temple, will show you Her inner core mechanics and the regeneration process. If you haven't been shown it's because She know's that you are not ready. I'd imagine with that trip I had, anyone who was not able to be aware somehow subconsciously that this you are not dying may very well have killed themselves. Think being electrocuted for a few hours, non stop with a swimming head through the deepest levels of Hell. That almost comes close to describing the phsycial/astral effects but no where near the Causal. Namaste and be careful, show your respect to the chemical and you will be fine.
In your house and maybe by yourself. First time I did acid was at like 11:30 after work I took 2 hits and started watching tv and next thing I know its like 2:30 and im in my room with black lights and listening to techno raving out haha. Its so much better at a house. Once I took 8 hits of acid and went out to some bar and they were having a concert there...um that was a little much for me, plus I always get really hot and shit when I do it so I just dont like going out much.
Again it's impossible to say. We are all sensitive to certain chemicals, and you could very easily fall into the hell of extreme paranoia, or you may wake up and realize "How gives a shit?" and rip your clothes off and dance naked in a WalMart. Anything can happen lol
Relayer is right on all accounts, man I have had some earth shattering trip on like 4 grams of shrooms that have humbled me to the point of breaking down and confronting my own mortality. This is something I have found that is consistant in mushrooms; there is a very organically cosmic sensation to it, like I am walking on a path that has been braved by millions before me, with much more spiritual intentions. With acid, it is usually more of a 'fun' trip with a far more linear narrative. Although, with shrooms I have seen colors that don't even exist! It's hard to describe, but I can't get that from acid, no matter how many hits i take.
yah I knew this guy who carved A.C.I.D. into his leg with a huge knife when he was like freakin out....I never knew anybody who actually freaked out before until that guy, everyone else I knew had good clean trips
Exactly, millions, probably actually closer to billions, of people have gone on that self defining journey before us and will after us, yet every one of us goes alone and when you are confronted with God, or Nature or whatever you call it, you feel more frightened and alone than you ever thought possible. I've seen the Universe die and retract, cancel it's expansion and go back into itself, and then after the delerium of ____________ it started coming back, it was born again and every peice reconstructed itself perfectly, right back to my walls uncrumbling and going back to being walls, the floor unshattering and vines ungrowing and so on. There is the ego death of LSD, and then there is the actual death of magic mushrooms and dying is far from fun, contrary to some popular psychonautic beliefs!
