Isn't the main point how to deal with the unpleasant content of the trip rather than to speculate fruitlessly what it may or may not have been ?
Yes and no.
Whenever I have taken LSD, LSA, and mushrooms.....substances I consider "real cosmic psychedelics" I always know even during the darkest corners of my trip and mind that I need to go with the flow and accept the truth in what I see. I always come out great and refreshed, no matter what I trust the LSD and mushrooms always. I feel like I can trust them more than people.
Now....
Whenever I took Dox for the first few times I accepted it as a trip, but those trips left me depressed and feeling worthless. I thought it was LSD and believed what the DOx was doing to me. It made me feel like a horrible person and violent. I didn't want to trust this chemical, no matter what I did I couldn't escape feeling like a horrible maggot.
Now since then, I have realized that I took so many bunk blotters. That's why they weren't as cosmic, profound and spiritual as LSD. I now don't feel so hard on myself because it wasn't LSD, the LSD that It trust. It was another chemical that is dirty and not very psychdelic, more like mania with dirty visuals and extreme vasoconstriction(LSD causes about as much as coffee or tea). NOT EVEN COMPARABLE to DOx vasoconstriction that is actually PAINFUL and SCARY?
Now when I take DOx I always know that I am not a bad person, it's just the drug causes excess dopamine/adrenaline in my body.
In fact you could say that most of the trips from Dox especially badly synthesized ones are probably just from paranoia and excess neurons in your brain.
Whenever I'm on LSD, I don't even feel like I took a drug. It feels like this feeling as always existed in me.
I don't feel the same about DOx.
I'm sure there are some people on these forums that agree with me.
Be careful people, stick with mushrooms if you can't get good L. You're gonna regret it if you fuck up your outlook on life with a few horrible DOx experiences.
The damage is known, hence the name RC.
A shorter answer to what you said:

I don't really think DOx's are trips. They are more like mind stimulators. They do similar things like amphetamines. Dox's allow you to look at visuals, become immersed in them....or write a paper. Talk to friends. You can do any of that while peaking on DOx in certain doses.
Not really a trip...
Or at least, I've never had a trip where I could communicate with my EGO intact.
I think it's about defining "psychedelic" and not "just accept the trip".
What trip? LSD is a trip, DOx is not.
