Before anyone starts flaming me with how ridiculous this is, or how dumb it would be, I need to say that this is just a substitute for this: http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/threads/547945-Daily-LSD-improved-concentration-motivation-creativity
2 year old thread. I don`t want to resurrect it after its deep sleep.

I`m just a curious soul in bitter passion for hearing others thoughts surrounding this.

I`ve been reading around the inter-web, below are some of the links.

They are just for the showcase for those interested.
Some of you may be familiar with some older threads I made regarding a bad trip/uncomfortable experience and some confusing events in my past where I was starting to act foolhardy. I`m a noob psychonaut FEI, this is just a thought, nothing more nothing else nothing less.

I`ve understood that tolerance would build up pretty quickly taking LSD everyday, and every second day, and every third day.
If someone was to take circa 50uG or even less like circa 30uG everyday or every second day. I would imagine every second day to be best, because then you could sleep and rest between the "drops".

I was imagining that the purpose of anyone doing anything like this, and having trips this close would be to improve concentration and create the same kind of life interest and motivation towards learning as all humans had as kids. Also create an amazing afterglow, and make things shine.
This could maybe cause HPPD, but I would imagine that the low doses can`t cause that big of a problem to such a high extent. I think...:?

I guess that if not increasing the dose, the effects of the low amounts of the molecule would basically disappear and turn into placebo, though I wouldn`t consider that a bad thing. Placebo is quite real if ya ask me. Nevertheless, some of the effects would still be there if doing this for JUST ONE WEEK.

This may sound rash and foolish, but it`s just a thought which I want to discuss and not bring up a 2 year old thread.
I am very curious and would like to hear on why this would be a bad idea and everything else interesting?
 
Afterglow, interest in life/motivation, I got those after my first few trips not so much anymore. I reckon daily tripping no matter the dosage would quickly get rid of those things. You're more likely to find yourself with crippling anxiety and no will to live if you start taking LSD daily

In my experience taking LSD twice within a couple days the second time is just uncomfortable and speedy with no psychedelic headspace and barely any visuals or sensory enhancement

My friend used to trip multiple times a week for weeks on end and ended up in a psych ward for a few days after she volunteered feeling suicidal

Just a dumb idea all around. Best case scenario you spend all day in discomfort and unable to sleep, worst case, there's no limit really

Once you are used to LSD and its no longer a novelty there's a darker edge to it that you wouldn't want to be a staple of your daily life
 
Basically there is nothing positive someone may gain from doing this?
I assume you noticed low dose, 30uG to 50uG.
 
I've used LSD twice and regret using it so frequantly; days apart.

This is something so profound that it should be respected. I'm far too naive to appreciate what this beautiful chemical has to offer.

Maybe when I'm older and wiser I'll swim in its glorious waters. Years from now or perhaps never again.

Tolerance builds rapidly fast so you're just wasting this elegant journey.

Also, the one who discovered LSD even recommends not using it within the same 365 days. The dude is a freaking genius so I'd take his word for it.

You mean Albert Hoffman. That is a terrible generalization which really isn`t fitted in my opinion to be a legit and correct decision on how often to drop Alice. 1 time each year. How big of a dose? 500uG, that would make sense, 100uG is a big dose to me nevertheless, disregarded from that fact. I do not agree that taking LSD one time each year is reasonable, but maybe rational it may be.
 
What exactly would you like to know? I think most of the information about regular use of low dose LSD has already been shared in the threads you mentioned. Do you have any specific question?
 
An unbiased viewpoint.
If this would bring forth any positive stuff to your life, if not, what to worry about, risks...etc.
Considering taking a quarter/half of a tab every second day, 4 tabs on single week.

I have experience of doing 1/8-1/4 of 120 ug blotter which is about 15-30ug, twice a week for a few months. I haven't noticed any negative effects, only positive ones:
-Enhancement of cognition and perception.
-Faster thinking, more associations, more creativity, out of the box thinking.
-Improved mood and increased energy.
Can one ask for more?:-)
...
Yes, lower tolerance that would enable everyday use.

Hm, interesting :?
Did you have any bad effects, like paranoia, psychosis, depression, suicidal thoughts, panic, stress, insomnia when you did this?
Did your brain feel like fried turkey, was it exhausting eventually, was your sleeping pattern fucked up?
I might as the foolhardy and dumb person I am, I might try this one time, or not, depending if this a foolish thing to try or not.

No, at these low doses that I took and with the frequency twice a week I didn't have any bad effects like paranoia, psychosis, depression, suicidal thoughts, panic, stress or insomnia. Only when I tried to take it more often than twice a week, I felt a bit of the 'fried turkey', but it was not big. With higher doses I would suspect more pronounced feeling of the fried turkey as well as some psychosis.

Paranoia or slight depression I sometimes get from regular cannabis use. Marijuana's positive nootropic effects are unfortunately mixed with some negative effects, like impairment of short-term memory, confusion, change of sleeping pattern, tiredness, change of eating pattern. But if you use it at very small amounts and not very often, let's say 2-3 times a week, the negative effects will be minimized. With time your body will get used to cannabis and sleeping and eating should not be affected that much (I am talking about very low doses only).

BTW I believe one should choose sativa strains of cannabis if one is gonna use it as a nootropic. Some people say that the sativa should also have high percentage of CBD in order to minimize paranoia and other kinds of negative effects. I haven't researched this yet but I am going to.

Some people report reduced libido when smoking weed or taking acid regularly. I think there may be some truth to it, but this thing seems to be very specific to an individual as some other people report opposite effect.

Very nice :)
I might actually give this a shot in some time, very cool.

I wouldn`t consider it ruining anything, simply because my tolerance will go back to normal eventually after the experiment it done.
I think people are a little too focused on always having "mind blowing" high LSD experiences, AAMOF I like small doses, probably because Im a pussy.
 
You should take a look at the book The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide by James Fadiman, specifically chapter 15 ("Can Sub-perceptual Doses of Psychedelics Improve Normal Functioning?") which discusses experiments with repeated low dosing.
 
Why waste such an amazing beautiful substance by dosing in lower levels multiple days in a row?
IMO the only way to experience acid is to eat a milligram at least and go into the futuristic Hindu/Buddhist realm. low dose is an insult to the greatest psychedelic known to man.
 
Don't ruin LSD for yourself. LSD is a beautiful and wonderful tool to expand the mind. Taking it every day is ruining it and is disrespectful to this amazing chemical.

It's not ruining it at all. I love and do big acid trips as well (before making a big trip I try not too use low doses for a week or more in order to avoid diminished effects because of the tolerance). I have big respect to this chemical for many reason, one of them being its versatility - at different doses LSD exposes qualitatively different effects. I love its philosophical/spiritual potential, experiencing oneness, etc. But let's not forget it's just a chemical substance. It's up to us, our consciousness and experience that make it so great. This is why I am not religious about it!:-)
 
Can someone actually feel anything from a super low dose like 15-30ug? What does it even feel like? I'm thinking most of the perceived effects at such a low dose would be the results of a placebo effect, no?
 
Wasting? Fuck that religion shit. Insulting the chemical? I don`t give a shit about the chemical, though I do care a lot about myself, so by disrespecting me by taking the substance too often I agree on that, but that would only be if I was taking skyhigh doses, and never giving myself time to rest. I disrespect the chemical by disrespecting myself IMO.
Low doses are amazing to me, (50-80uG), it just enhances my mood and makes me relax and enjoy myself, I don`t need to go deep all the time.
I don`t see what kind of harm it may do to try.

Eventually it would probably be some, more or less placebo involved, but personally placebo can be quite nice as well.
 
Dude if you take low doses like that (50-80ug) daily or bi-daily then you're going to end up not feeling anything from the drug after maybe your second dose in a week. Your tolerance will be built and you're going to have to let it come back down before feeling anything again. But hey it's your life and you can do what you want. I don't subscribe to the "disrespecting the chemical" mentality either, at least not in your case. For me disrespecting a psychedelic is when you are going to take a dose (a real dose that will actually make you trip...) and you aren't prepared for it or doing it for the right reasons (for example: doing it just to get F'd up).

"As someone said, the rocks don’t glow, even a little bit. But what many people are reporting is, at the end of the day, they say, ‘That was a really good day.’ You know, that kind of day when things kind of work. You’re doing a task you normally couldn’t stand for two hours, but you do it for three or four. You eat properly. Maybe you do one more set of reps. Just a good day. That seems to be what we’re discovering."

I completely agree with this. I do not recommend doing it continuously, but micro-dosing (20 µg) every third day over a period of 2 to 4 weeks can definitely help a lot. It is a completely different experience, almost another drug. I would bet money that a double-blind study between LSD-micro-dosing and prozac would give better results for the micro-dosing.
