Does weight affect LSD dosage?

[maddux91]

I recently acquired 10 pieces of blotter. I was told by the person who sold me the product, that the amount of LSD required to produce similar effects can be affected by the weight of the person taking it.

I thought this sounded a bit funny. Assuming the LSD is absorbed sub-lingually, doesn't it just go straight to the receptors in the brain? It should have no effect on the weight of the person, or amount of fat they have. Please, correct me if I am wrong, but I have been unable to find any information on this, that I could understand. I did read that the amount of blood vessels under the tongue makes it a good place to put it, is it absorbed into the bloodstream?

I intend to try this out with two of my friends, one who weighs 105kg (overweight), and the other who weighs 80kg (quite tank), with myself at 65kg (neither?). The guy who weighs in at 105kg may have a natural tolerance to some drugs, feels very little effects from even a high dose of MDMA (around 175mg). Although, none of us have any tolerance from LSD.

If we assume that the blotter pieces contain around 75ug each (which I understand is around average), how can I equally divide the amount of up the blotters, so each of us can have an even share.

Also, I have heard that LSD can be confirmed to be on a piece of blotter, by shining it under UV light (black light), is this a myth or true? Also, just because it glows under UV light, does this mean that it doesn't contain any of the DOx chemicals?

Thanks.

AFAIK it doesn't make any significant difference. The only way to find out is to do some experimentation, and objective results aren't easy to come by when it comes to tripping

+1 on the UV light thing as well, but I'm not at all sure whether it breaks down under that kind of radiation.

In my experience, differences in body weight don't effect LSD dosage significantly, if at all.

 

[dread]

Yes, UV light destroys LSD, although I'm not sure how fast the process is. And besides many other chemicals glow under blacklight, so I wouldn't waste my blotter with a blacklight when it really serves no good purpose.

No, weight doesn't matter, just split them up into equal number of blotters and go for it. And yes, UV lights will show acid to glow. The reason LSD isn't affected by weight is because it doesn't need to be converted in the liver, is effective in such low doses that it wouldn't matter. But, this being said, don't get your hopes up. Just because I said all that doesn't mean you will all have mind blowing experiences, especially with those doses. Keep your standards low, and you can be treated with a nice surprise.

thanks for the responses,
surely exposing the blotter to UV light (or even sunlight) for a short period of time would not damage it, or reduce potency too much, if at all. I don't know, maybe I am underestimating the fragility of the compound.

I go into this experience with a completely open mind, and not listening to the contrived ideas of others of how it should be, and just look to have a unique and wonderful time. A good setting, and good company tend to be always the major elements of a successful experience.

check out the comedian ralphie may.

he does a pretty funny skit about his first time with LSD. and he is atleast 350lbs+

i dont see any links on u tube but watch comedy central he comes on fairly often

The only thing a UV light can tell you is if it's not LSD.

There are DOx's that glow, some don't however.

I've bought a sweet tart with "acid" on it and it glowed too, when I took the dose I then realized it wasn't LSD but some sort've DOX.

So all a UV does is tell you if you don't have acid, which does help. I would not eat a blotter that doesn't glow.

It affect dosage,but not very much... but I think that bigger brains maybe require more lsd than people with bigger body. Thank god for my little stupid brain that saturates at 30mcg :D

Haha that sounds slightly plausible surprisingly.

 

[ResidentJunglist]

definitely sounds plausible, though i feel the effects would be negligible.

there are many factors to consider.

UV light will destroy LSD...

avoid sunlight, blacklights, and tanning bulbs...

average house lighting is fine.... The white stuff inside florescent lighting blocks UV....

Its probably white blotter, white glows pretty brightly as it is....

You will know if you have DOx within about a second of putting it on your tongue, if you dont feel like tripping that long spit it out... DOx has a strong chemical taste where typical LSD blotter is fairly tasteless (i know about the damn hoffmanns and their strange bitterness) but for the most part, blotter is tasteless...

I have had blotter that was tasteless and then had nice blotter, definitely LSD, that had a bitter taste to it. Sometimes you can taste the solvent that was used while laying the blotter.

The main thing that I noticed with legit LSD was that almost exactly 1 hour after dosing the effects would start. Like clockwork.

I have never seen anyone's body weight have anything to do with their trip based on dosage.

 

[Solipsis]

LSD works in mysterious ways, just like the lord (lol)...

I'm wondering though, as the acid courses through your body it seems to activate a type of cascading effect, like a catalyst although it is not gone from your body as fast as they once thought. It is still detectable with sensitive equipment... I agree body weight does not affect the way you should dose but it seems the LSD does not accumulate entirely in your brain, there is also a feeling in your body like a body high. Does that stem from an effect in the part of your brain that senses your body? Or is it acting on a neural level on these sites?

And yeah, the brain weight suggestion does tickle the mind :D

sounds like someone needs a little help with their math homework :D

Well if dosage was semi-dependent on weight then you would have less of a simple math problem than it initially seems but it is not so it is simple after all.

Still, figuring out how high to dose for your first time in general is always a toughy but that subject has been discussed ad nauseam.
I see maddux is guessing at the dose that's why I say this. For us fortunate folks who can get their trips tested that decision is less difficult, at least not a multiple variable equation :D

I have the same thing with the stuff I have right now. It's the first time I've had a large (multi hit) image on one side and blank white on the back. On the back the people used pencil lines to separate the hits. It is definitely really good LSD but it certainly is bitter. I don't know whether it's the ink on the image side or the graphite pencil lines on the other.

The latter actually has me wondering if it's safe to consume the graphite pencil stuff? I know it's a small amount and I'm pretty sure they don't use lead in pencils anymore but it's still something in my mind; I'll look it up.

 

[Solipsis]

Graphite is just a form of carbon, I really don't think you have to be in any kind of worry.

My current acid (210 mic Ganesha's) and previous ones (50 mic Hofmann's) both taste(d) pretty much exactly like soap. Yuck! My thoughts are it is most likely not a coincedence and the LSD product used to lay both types of blotter is the same. And it does feel equally clear on the mind and body as far as anyone could tell. It's good and 'clear' stuff to conclude, despite the taste. The one impurity is not the other (unless it is, coincedentally lol).

neither the ink that would be used on blotter paper nor graphite in such small amounts would produce a bitter taste. are you sure it LSD?

It dosen't have any real noticable effect, but I would say weight definately plays an indrect role since your wieght affects your overall health. If you are obese, your health is suffering and how you react to drugs could be affected. Same is true if you are extremely skinny or malnourished.
