Lysergamides [LSD Subthread] The Low-Dose LSD Appreciation Thread

MentalMagnificient,

I experienced discontinuation symptoms during cessation of frequent psychedelic usage. The symptoms were mostly mild. Tapering the dose resulted in less severe symptoms, nearly none at all.

I also notice discontinuation symptoms if I abruptly halt once weekly psychedelic usage. Tapering also reduced these symptoms. Others experiences could vary.

how does micro-dosing lsd compare to shrooms?

It works better than micro-dosing mushrooms does, in my experience. LSD provides a crystal clarity and energy and it acts as a nootropic. It doesn't really feel like a drug, it makes me feel more able to do the things I normally do. Mushroom microdoses feel a little more inhibiting to me, I can get a little scattered. Both are nice, but LSD is better for it.

I'm merging this into the microdosing LSD thread.
 
I really want to see a movie on LSD.. I normally can't really sit still for movies fully tripping ... Maybe like 7 hours in I could manage. Would low dose enhance the movie or still not worth ? Shrooms I get really into movies but there is no acting sober at the theatre with the headspace and massive pupils.

Thanks for input
 
Any possible dangers in relation to mental health? I've noticed improvements upon Micro dosing but am concerned it may bring out potentially underlining mental issues.

Anyone have negative FB in relation to extended periods of microdosing?

I recently micro-dosed 1p-LSD at 6-7 µg every third day for 40 days. I use no other drugs besides modest amount of caffeine. I’m quite sensible to psychedelics but can handle them easily. I was surprise by the results at such a low dosage.

There was some non-specific stimulation but sensory perception was minimally modified. Psychomotor functions, creativity, cognition and interpersonal relations improved slightly. Mood was mostly uplifted but there was some lability that made me feel sometimes a bit uncomfortable, it can amplify good and bad moods. I could feel the drug action only if I paid attention, otherwise I totally forgot I micro-dosed 1p.

The ingestion day was most of the time very pleasant and productive. The day after was the best one as I could feel all the positive effects minus stimulation and mood lability, I felt very calm, centered and zen like. The third day was back to normal.

But I also experienced some ego loosening, emergence of usually unconscious memories and feelings I had in the past. So, if somebody have mental issues or bad memories under the rug… beware. Micro-dosing brings more than stimulation and getting a good day. I have the feeling it do the same as full-on doses in many ways, but it’s more manageable, it gives me time to integrate the insights and act accordingly in my day to day life. Desirable traits can be established more consistently than with full-on doses.

I did that on and off for the past five years with 2C-E, 2C-T-2, 2C-T-7, HO-MIPT, AcO-DMT and I never had the slightest physiological issue besides unpleasant interaction with caffeine/2C-T-7. I’m 58, enjoy perfect health and take no medication besides psychedelics. My doctor calls me the 50 years old young men, he’s envious of my condition. I still do backpacking in the mountains, snorkeling in lakes, cycle to work, weight lifting, yoga etc. All in all, my lifestyle has become healthier.

I never had mental health issue in the past other than moderate transient depression and never had relapses while or after micro-dosing. I think I’m psychologically better balanced than I was five years ago. Life is more enjoyable, I worry much less and easily accept aging. I gave up some compulsive behavior as it became no more attractive to me.

Finally, micro-dosing is very often confused with mini-dosing. If you are still aware of the drug action while deeply involved in any activity, in my opinion, it is probably more than a micro-dose.
 
Reading was a very enjoyable experience on on hit of acid, I could envision the places the author was conveying through the words so vivdly... I also felt the need to organize my surroundings, like clean up the room and stuff,though I got sidetracked a few times at least I was doing it....

I took 3 the next day and went for a bike ride, the bike felt like an extension of my body, the harder I pumped on the bike the more visuals I would get... there were rainbow fracticals in the sky... very cool visual.


I can see how it would be desirable to achieve this state of mind consistently, but the next day I was wiped out.

I'd love to know the dose you took to achieve this state. I recently had a very terrible experience with LSD, and am VERY apprehensive on trying it again but would love to microdose. This is the oldest comment I have ever replied to.

Thank you so much for your detailed reply!

I've been taking approx 15mcg and noticing stimulation that could possibly be described as mania. Is this normal or cause or be concerned?
 
^^^^I started MD at 12/13 mcg and it was too much, especially at work. At 12 mcg i need to be out doing a physical activity. It really stimulate the dopaminergic system.

Lower your dose and see if you are comfortable with it. If you still don't feel it right, its probably not for you.
 
Is there anyone who suffers from chronic migraine and tried micro-dosing LSD? Does it help?
 
I have found small doses to be really beneficial to the things that i do, i say small doses because ive never done less than half a tab(unknown ug's)
But i found its really easy to handle, to the point where i've had dinner with my family tripping. I find in the half a tab to 1 tab range for me just get me slightly trippy and in a headspace thats very creative. I have also noticed it can open your vocabulary a little.

As for medicinal purpouses i cant say much, ive always used smaller doses as a way of having "art benders". But it works wonders for it, quite often you can take more information from a small dose trip than a medium to high dose.

I havent really tried small doses in social situations but after reading here that its a really good time i deffinately might have to try it!
Instead of taking 2-3 tabs and been barely sociable at doofs etc xD
Cant beat that "acid insanity" though sometimes its so funny!

Oh yeah, low dose acid is great for social situations. I find that (sober) people get easily sucked into conversations with me when I'm tripping slightly, and they become very animated. This is probably because I personally become enthusiastic about the conversation topic, and my reactions rub off on other people. It's pretty cool.

The only problem is, sometimes it can heighten my social anxiety, which makes it a little uncomfortable for me. Sometimes I feel that everyone else is enjoying my company a lot more than I'm enjoying theirs... haha.
 
Hahah true that, oh well its better than been the one everyones pointing at, while you sit in the corner like a manic xD
 
could only seem to enjoy low doses of LSD in social settings.

as a matter of fact, i'll be taking a low dose for an upcoming party in 2 weeks.

can't wait to dance my arse off =D.
 
I don't understand how you can find microdosing of LSD something interesting. Underdosing myself with psychedelics only made me feel nervous, overstimulated and in a bad headspace. For me, with psychedelics, I need a normal dose at least for not feeling unconfortable. Maybe that's because I've got ADHD, and my mind races like it was already on LSD or meth when sober.

Yeah, I get that. Often you need a larger dose to "break through" into the insightful, euphoric headspace we all love.

However, I think it might partly have to do with expectations. If you're expecting a powerful trip, and accidentally underdose, of course you'll be disappointed. But if you take a low dose on purpose, it can be a pleasant little shift from mundane sobriety.


I haven't done a lot of work with microdosing in the strict sense of the term, meaning truly sub-threshold doses of psychedelics. But lately I've been experimenting with taking very mild doses of tryptamines or lysergamides multiple times a week, for productivity / creativity. I'm not quite sure what to think about it yet... On the one hand, I've had some seemingly exciting success with 4-AcO-DMT + 4-HO-MET in combination. But on the other hand, that usage pattern starts to feel a bit stressful and exhausting after awhile. Surprisingly, it feels healthier to have a deep +++ trip once every couple weeks than it does to have a couple mild doses every week.

The choice of psychedelic makes a big difference though. Microdosing with 1P-LSD gave a very different headspace compared to microdosing with 4-AcO-DMT + 4-HO-MET. If anything, I'm thinking 4-HO-DPT/4-AcO-DPT might be one of the best choices for microdosing.
 
I had 30ug yesterday and went to the beach, I was very pleasantly surprised by the healing effects of such a low dose.

I've finally put some things in perspective and got a much more positive outlook on life, making me change certain behavioral patterns.

I had absolutely no problems to go out for dinner afterwards, there was almost no anxiety, except for some minor body load.

Definitely going to repeat this.
 
I posted here a few pages back but i've done some experimentation with microdosing and social situations.

Ive found light lsd doses to boost my confidence when speaking to people and i feel more connected to what they are saying when on it too.
It seems to heighten my vocabulary and i find my subconscious mind spitting complex sentences without actually thinking about what i'm saying.

It also heightens creativity and persistence along with it.

Argh i could go on, lsd is so versatile its crazy!
 
Today again, 30ug in combination with sports like mountain biking is amazing, it boosts just about everything, you're able to control better, you're much more capable of judging certain maneuvers correctly, insight is improved, endurance and energy levels are greatly improved, and life in general seems to be shimmering with a new light of appreciation, new hope, new ideas, insights...

I wish I new how to use psychedelics in this way 15 years ago, never knew low doses could be so beneficial.(not LSD but ALD-52, but there shouldn't be much difference).
 
The only time I've ever "micro-dosed" is when I took half a tab with a really high tolerance. At the peak I seemingly merged with my seat and holding my girlfriends hand felt like we were connected and I became confused when she was able to let go of my hand lol. Aside from that I had a slight mood increase and maybe a little more energy
