so i have 2 tabs of acid, and im eager to trip. I'm looking for a sort of spiritual experience and to do it at a park. I have nobody to trip with as of now though, and not sure when I'll find someone. most of my friends wouldnt think of doing acid, to the point where i couldnt even bring it up to some of them. Im pretty sure that everyones going to tell me to wait until i find someone to trip with, but anyway should I wait until perfect conditions and someone to trip with, or do it alone?
 
If you have all day, aren't likely to run into a crowd of people during the peak and you are in a good frame of mind then there is nothing wrong with tripping alone. Depending on your tabs one will still be a spiritual experience if you have a beautiful location. I wouldnt bother trying to reach an extreme state your first trip. Better to know it's effects before you try and bend your mind with them. Dont worry, you will still trip hard if they are even moderately good. Plus you are less likely to lose your shit with no one to help you. The bonus will be you'll have another tab for another adventure.
 
Depends what kind of person you are, if your independent regularly then the only real point to have another person there is for safety IMO. If you do things on your own regularly then LSD can/will be no different......

do things on my own as in do drugs on my own? ive tripped dxm on my own but i dont think ive tripped alone other than that. do you think it would be a better experience for my first time with the drug to do it with someone else?
 
My first LSD trip was on 5 hits, alone in the woods. I think that doing it alone would have a higher liklihood for a deeper experience with the LSD. IME simply because being around people requires more focus on the environment and its actions. If you're alone, you have the freedom to not be listening to how cool your friend thinks the ground looks. Aldo the likelihood of have a spiritual experience is increased since it is YOUR experience.
 
I see no reason not to trip alone, I don't know anyone else interested in psychs so I've almost always done it by myself. I wouldn't trip on a substance I was unfamiliar with at a park the first time, unless you live within super-convenient walking distance. It sucks to get stranded in some place public if things get messy.

No I don't think that's what he meant by it. The way you experience LSD is going to be very largely influenced by your brain, the kind of person you are, your experiences, and your personality. If you're a person that gets really anxious and doesn't like to be alone, like I used to be when I first started using LSD, then no don't take it alone. If you're the kind of guy who likes to do his own thing because you just prefer not to have people influencing what you're doing, like for example if you're the kind of guy who would be idealy comfortable just hanging at home on your own, rather than inviting a group of people.

My best advice for first time LSD users is always go with your instincts, start with a low dose so you can test the waters, and have a backup plan if you're tripping at somewhere like a park or something, just in case something goes wrong which it most likely won't, but just in case have a backup plan.
 
If you are a person that has a huge ego and was the "popular" kid in high school then be careful. If your genuinely in touch with yourself and your whole life doesnt revolve around fake material things/people you should have no problem on any amount of lsd when your alone IMO. (If that makes any sense at all haha)
 
IF you feel confortable alone, you're not depressed or anxious, a solo acid trip can be very interesting, and will give you a chance to really get a grip of the drug and its effects.

If you wait to do it with a friend, expect lots of laughing and messing about, doing silly things that at the time seem funny, or get into a deep converstation, but it has to be a good friend who u trust nd vice-versa

This mans got it though I did mean using drugs alone as well though you painted the picture of what I meant brilliantly! If you don't like to be alone regularly than you probably won't on LSD, especially if you hit a rough patch, as most people find the most soothing thing during rough patches are other people to talk to them(for me personally it depends who you are and all that as i'm more independent and tend to trip alone most often anyways)and tell them over and over that everything will be perfectly fine. I wouldn't really recommend you do it at a park your first time alone as well, what if you get lost? Shit would be annoying and even if you think you know the park like the back of your hand, under LSD's visual and mental enhancement it may appear your in a foreign area and just wander about, as you don't really know how LSD affects you yet.
 
This

..is my question too.

It dont look like I have anyone to trip with, but my brother could keep an eye on me?
Lol.

I am very independent but i like spending time with my dog.
 
Honestly my first trip was alone and I preferred it that way. Same for most of my trips, I've only tripped with other people like, 2 or 3 times. The most important thing is a safe and conductive environment to a good trip. Just make sure you're not going to be around police, parents, people from your work, or anyone else that wouldn't approve of you tripping, as even if it doesn't get you in any trouble, it can lead to a horrible paranoia filled experience.

Have music, food, water, internet, art, pencil, paper, etc at hand so you have plenty to do. I prepare this stuff beforehand because sometimes if your trip gets real intense or you get caught in a loop, going to the kitchen for a drink can become a near impossible task - but if you have a bottle of water beside you, just grab it and drink.
 
If you are in a positive mind state and are comfortable spending time alone, then you should be fine. Preferably, I would suggest tripping with friends on the first time until you get used to tripping, then you can venture out on your own, however it is not 100% necessary.

What about being in the house with people who wouldnt approve? I'm 110% sure they wouldnt come in my room...but would it make a difference if i knew they were in the house?
 
"What about being in the house with people who wouldnt approve? I'm 110% sure they wouldnt come in my room...but would it make a difference if i knew they were in the house?"

There is a risk that it can get ugly, and it will most likely annoy you because you can really act in mysterius ways under influence of tryptamins. Though, if you feel you can steer the trip in the right directions then you should be fine, if you, however, lose control then you go into a loop that just makes you more and more paranoid.

In short, if you know how to steer the trip in the right directions you'll be fine. If not, it can turn ugly.

how would i steer it in the right directions?
 
Just wait until you can trip without having to be around those who disapprove. I used to trip all the time back in my room and in others houses when I doubt everyone in the house would approve that some of its occupants were mad on psychedelics but...... Its just always going to be more worthwhile to wait until your in the clear and trip rather than have to trip with rules or something to hide IMO.
 
okay so,
pretty much
i should just have my first trip at home,
With my dog .

i can get on tinternets, play on my mixer,
got food, water,
toilet,

all good right?
 
Yeah assuming there isn't anyone that you don't want to know that you are tripping your house is probably the best place. Wherever you feel safest/most comfortable.

As someone who had their first trip at a 3 day psytrance festival in the bush I can attest to the value of a clean toilet and bathroom. No tripper should be forced to use a dirty portable toilet. I also like to know that if things start to get too intense I can get into bed and just ride it out safely.
