The most valuable thing you’ll have are your exper
Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but would really like some ideas, but not sure if this is really HR

On 2 recent occasions my mate and I have had the same about of LSD (direct from UK) and I experienced tiles etc moving and changing shapes and pictures, (watching a painting of my nanna's house was BRILLIANT) however my experience was not mind blowing. I also got the impression of lights coming and going, like someone walking around with a torch, and some strobing while my eyes were shut listening to music.

Where as my friend is seeing coloured aura's around everything and describes what she is seeing as kind of "fractured light".

The first time we smoked a bit of crystal.. had the LSD and later dropped some crystal MDMA (also from UK). Some time later we did another round of the same. She was just loving colour etc - I was happy to curl up on the lounge with my doona.

The 2nd time - 5 weeks later, again smoked gear, then had 1 3/4's tab each of LSD. Again she was off chops and I was just enjoying music but again nothing huge. Later she took some MDMA and gave me another whole tab as she really wanted me to experience what she was. I got a bit of shape shifting.. but again nothing like the colour she experienced.

Could it be that:
1. I weigh more than her?
2. I have been smoking more gear than her leading up to Friday night?
3. Is it even possible that my eyesight (I have a stigmatism) could have anything to do with what I am seeing?

I only mentioned where the stuff came from as I would "like to think" it might be better quality that anything from around these parts... so we should not have had crap.

If anyone has some ideas I would really appreciate them????
 
There is a clichéd saying that "you don't seek lsd, it seeks you" but the saying is also true of it's effects. Your mindset has a big influence on what you experience. Two people will often have different journeys on the same dose just as sometimes different trips can be had on the same tab. Sometimes I find I can guide what I see or feel and other times if I am thinking too much it is over before I really reach that peak. Body weight doesn't really make much difference as the active dose is such a minuscule amount.

Some people are also just mentally tougher to break but I would just give you a warning about mixing meth with lsd, particularly if your are just starting out. It is generally a good recipe for freaking out as many of the old heads here will attest to. Many of us have seen very seasoned trippers experience bad trips after mixing stims and acid. Even the same dose of each can suddenly have a very different affect under the same conditions. Better to get used to this drug on it's own for a while.

It is just as likely that your tabs have deteriorated particularly if they have travelled from the UK. Heat and light will destroy lsd so if they have travelled across the globe hidden in someone's luggage, sitting on a hot tarmac, then it is more likely that they are in fact weaker than locally produced trips.
 
I really appreciate what you have all said here, thanks. Very good information. I did certainly just lay in a dark room.. head between 2 speakers just trying to let myself go where every the journey was going to take me, but still nothing spectaclar.

Acidprime you may very well be right and that might be what happened.

Busty St Clare very insightful information, I would like to think I am mentally tough! Pretty much trying to put an end to my stimulant use at this point due to rediculous amounts of cash spent, more than full blown addiction at this stage.

Thanks again everyone.
 
idk, my best acid trip involved 15mg of adderall so idk if stimulants necessarily mean a shitty trip. moreover, as Busty St Clare mentioned, your mindset is one of the most important aspects of an acid trip. i have friends who never have the same emotional connection with lsd as i do, even if they take more than i do, they're just stoic and unimaginative i suppose :/. go figure.
 
It can depend on your willingness to let go and flow with it. Even if you believe you are you may still be subconsciously holding back.

I had a friend who never got visuals from LSD, we would have the same dosages of the same tabs, i would always end up in another world and was very open to any type of possibility presenting itself, whereas he seemed very adamant about controlling the experience. If your determined to get the feel for it, i'd recommend trying it without the use of any other drugs (especially stimulants)
 
Plz don't smoke crystal and then have lsd, my mates gf went to the psych ward for that, and so has my mates brother and a third friend needed therapy because he became paranoid for awhile.


I for one haven't touched LSD, the idea of something permanently changing me so profoundly as some have experienced makes me very cautious of the powerful drug. However Sustanon has often said he considers Mushrooms to be a more powerful drug and when I have tripped on that I have had similar experiences where I have been trippping but not in a different world like my best mate.

I think these two points definately play a role
1. I weigh more than her?
2. I have been smoking more gear than her leading up to Friday night?

Your other idea I really couldn't give an informed view on.

As others have said it's also important to try and not make yourself trip, just go with the feeling, obviously music is your friend in getting where you wanna be. Next time perhaps try the LSD with out the other drugs and work out how good your natural tollerance is to LSD before trying it mixed with others.

And As I first stated, Please don't smoke crystal on LSD, feel free to hit the MDMA and candyflip away, but the meth is a big no no in my books when it comes to mixing with LSD.

Party safe friend =D
 
go with the flow, eat more dosage. Redosing doesn't really work. so ur first dose should be like 2.5tabs compared to her 1 and 3/4. Don't smoke meth with it. its an evil combonation and takes away the clarity of LSD. :) Hang a nos/nang or two. Smoke a cone of weed. don't smoke too much weed either if ur not a habitual smoker. :)
 
Im way to high to read all those posts but from what i gather u did sum amphetamines which is a bad idea when tripping. 2-3 tabs if they are strong would blow ur socks off. Coming from the UK i highly doubt it was strong. Next tiem just try to do it by itself and u might get better results.
 

Great song ;)

Don't really have much to say that hasn't already been said. Just go with the flow, lucy will look after you if you treat her right <3

I've only mixed cocaine with LSD once, but the dose of LSD was very high and I only had a few lines. It straightened me up a fair bit for about half an hour and then I was back in hyperspace. Got me out of a tight spot but I'm sure if could go bad if you has excessive amounts of cocaine whilst tripping.
 
Also LSD and cocaine are not a good combo.. despite what that song might say about the island.


I found THAT out the hard way one fiendish saturday morning.. haha

Haha just love that you said morning. Always love hearing people go hard from get go.
 
I got my friend to read everyones information and I am really glad I posted on here so thanks everyone.

Seeing what everyone said about the gear I will certainly give that a big miss if the opportunity comes along again to have a trip.

The first time we got on it and while on round 2 of everything we watched a movie called "Cookers" I had seen it twice before but remember thinking during it....WOW I am as fucked up as I think I have ever been.. but not in a bad way... just eyes rolling around way!

That movie, the gear and LSD, and I think I can thank my lucky stars it did not all go VERY BAD. Lesson learnt and advice taken on board.
 
1. Ditch the gear.

2. Up the dose and/or change source. Say what you want about tabs over here, but I hardly hear people complaining. Rarely is there ever much of a shortage of decent LSD doing the rounds in my experience. Maybe try local tabs that are known to be good.

3. Change of environment. This is a MASSIVE factor for me. I'm sensitive to psyche's on any day but where I am and who I'm with affects my trip ten times more than how much I've taken. Think about it beforehand and get some idea's going to enhance your experience. Plan a field trip to a park or something, scout out some interesting things to see and do.

4. Nangs. If your not satisfied with the intensity of your trip one sure fire way to crank it up a notch is to suck down some bulbs. Nitrous oxide and LSD is possibly my all time favourite combination and naver fails to please. Do a tripple hitter on any dose and try and tell me you didnt just go to mars and back - you cant, because that would be a lie ;)

If all else fails then its something within you thats holding it back. While upping the dosage will eventually force you into tripping balls, the far better option is to try and let go of your inhibitions and take everything for what it is. LSD is rarely overwhelming unlike other psyches like Mushrooms, its more an amplifyer of emotion. Whatever your feeling at the time is enhanced to a level where everything is suddenly amazing and you cant belive you hadnt seen the world in this light up until now.

Let us know how you go. I hope you get what your after.

Good advice guys/gals. However I think you probably should have said a single dose of LSD is rarely overwhelming L3inad? Once you get in the 300ug+ range not many people are able to stay that well grounded ;)

I agree that you should avoid most stimulants too. Definitely coke/speed/mdpv, and personally I stay away from anything else that could add to anxiety too like weed. Set, setting, company and mindframe are all important. It also doesn't hurt to have some benzos on hand just in case... adds to peace of mind if nothing else.

Its mostly a matter of differing minds. not mindset or anything. some people just trip harder than others. For instance, i never get intense visuals off of LSD (although i can off shrooms) even when taking the same amount as my friends, or more! the 2d or 3d time i did acid, I took 1.5 hits, my one friend took 1 hit, and my last friend took .5 hits. And he was the one that went off into his own little world, whereas I barely tripped! just how it happens. Ive taken 7 hits before and not really gotten *that* high, although i was definitely out there, but compared to where i thought i should be, i was still relatively down. if it happens again, hey, just enjoy where you are and dont worry about it.

I know alot of people who have mixed meth/speed with LSD hundreds of times and come out fine. I think its more about knowing yourself and if you can handle the acid if it stuffs you into that paranoid corner of the universe. But you are right, any psychdelic should be treated with the upmost respect and just casually mixing drugs without considerable experience and knowledge in doing so can possibly lead to terrible consequences.

LSD is certainly a drug you have to work with and learn how to control it to really enjoy.

I agree with sustanon, I have been in the very depths of LSD, taking silly amounts to see how far i could go.

But even the highest amounts i have taken have nothing on a Level 4 or 5 mushy trip, Mushys are dark, murky and have a very dirty depressing vibe and scare the fuck out of me with their enlightenment abilities, they are powerful bastards and they are certainly not a drug i would "play" with. I once drank a heap of juice on a new years night and was pretty much weirded out with paranoia and strange emotions for nearly 3 months, i have NEVER had that happen on LSD..

Beware of the mushys, natures very very powerful hallucinogen. 8o
 
L3inad, thanks for all the points. The first time we had them we were meant to be spending the day and night camping in the bush 'geocaching'. That might just have been the ideal setting (or scary as fuck) who knows. It pissed with rain all weekend so stayed at my house.

2nd time was at my friends brand new house, and I have to admit I was reluctend to have it based on the environment alone, I had said to her maybe we should wait for a better situation.. so I probably wasnt in the right frame of mind.

I was sure someone said something about the quality of local product and now I cant find that post.. but anyway we will certainly want to try again. I think I am a very positive and happy person and have never experienced insecurities or anxieties so just hope I can chill, go with the flow, have the environment prepped and TRULY experience something unlike anything before.

Like someone said I will let you know how it goes!
