Acid better then XTC?

It really depends on the person. I think acid is better, but i'm more introspective and enjoy the thoughts and radical alteration to reality LSD creates. Ecstasy certainly has alot more recreational appeal and i have used it far more than LSD. They both make music sound amazing so they are both great in my opinion.
 
I'm not sure i could choose one over the other, as they're quite different....

Acid has the advantage of being physically benign, though; one can sustainably trip more often than one can roll.
 
the only way i can explain my answer (my friend asked me this), is that in an ideal world id smoke daily, trip weekly, and roll monthly. Not to say i like any one of the 3 more than the next.
 
LSD. It is more challenging, but also is much more rewarding than MDMA. MDMA usually just makes me feel really good, content, and at peace with all things around me. I lethargically go about solving the problems. I am more quick to realize that there are no problems.

With both chemicals I become very empathetic. LSD I tend to be a little more intrusive, whereas on MDMA I slowly work at the problem. On acid I want to tear down all the barriers and get to the origins. On MDMA I slowly peel away parts of the processes I am involved in. On LSD I tear the process a part, then pick up each one of the pieces.

Words, words, words.

I like acid better because after I get through all the challenges it presents, and after I am forced to pick a direction, pick many directions... well after all that... the next day I feel pretty damn awesome.

With MDMA I will have a pleasurable experience... but my comedowns are terrible. I get super depressed for a little while. The goodness I feel from MDMA is not always worth the next couple of days. Sometimes it is.

With LSD I tend to be more enthusiastic. I get a general feel good, ecstasy vibe from acid. I become engrossed in my situations. On MDMA I have more of an ability to choose. I can get all involved or I can just sit back and feel love. With acid I slip in and outta situations. And I love that. On acid, I gotta keep moving, stay stimulated.

I'm an acid head. Somewhere along time it happened. Now it is. I trip a lot. I can do LSD more often than I can do MDMA. MDMA only happens every so often. Sometimes I mix it with acid... about half of those turned out to be more awesome than if I had just stuck with the acid. The other half were not that great. Rolls suck sometimes though. Acid, on its own, can be very euphoric. It can be whatever you choose it be before you enter. That is what I love about it. MDMA is a little too cracked out for me. Same thing every time...granted you have the same material. maybe not though. maybe I just need to play with it more. LSD has such a greater range of possibility in my opinion.

I think more people like MDMA because it is predictable. LSD goes, goes, goes, and is not always predictable. That's why I like it. It matches the newness of the world and all the absurdities of the world. It is like DMT in that way. DMT throws the user through so many visions, that no pattern develops. It is constant newness... constant absurdity. I love it.


sorry if I ramble too much. could it be the chemicals?
 
Never tried acid yet, but I'm pretty sure I'll like it more than MDMA, next day is so poopy, and MDMA just feels a little rough on my body.
 
Well MDMA has an advantage of giving amazing euphoria and an awesome experience without all too much effort - it has a gigantic push.

LSD has - well in my experience - a bigger potential, you can have unbelievable cosmic experiences on it that far surpass MDMA's happiness because its deeper and for a reason you can either understand rationally or intuitively.

So LSD can be better than MDMA, so it is - at the right time and/or used wisely. Is what I think.
 
pure mdma would be better imo . when i've been rolling balls and i feel like im connected to 100s of people ive never met at a rave, dancing my heart out while glowstixking... nothing beats that.

acid is great, i've only done it once though, but not a party drug

like the person above me said.. acid is alot harder to get

if i could get acid as easy as x id be doing it alot.. since it's pretty safe on the body

but i'd say pure mdma is almost if not as hard to find as cid.
 
If I were to look at it like this:

In life, you only get to do either or once - LSD would be a no-brainer

I do love them both
 
Can't say I like LSD better, if you get good MDMA(aka just MDMA and a good perfect dose, not too much) you'll have an amazing experience without a negative comedown.

The key to taking MDMA is taking a good dose, not too much. Most people do too much, or they get bunk pills.

IMO MDMA has less of a "crash" then good LSD even. With LSD I feel in a good mood the next day but I am "scrambled" kinda. Just chill, going to work is okay but it's confusing at times lol.

With MDMA I can go right back into life, feeling energetic, empathetic and great with no comedown. Goto work the next day, goto a party ect.

From good MDMA!
 
Apples and Oranges.

Psychedelic Experience vs Entheogenic Experience.

Both together is pretty awesome.

LSD changed my life for the better and ended years of depression in 1 trip.

MDMA showed me what love in its most intense forms can be, and in turn caused me to fall in love with someone. I have had unintended emotional bonding that i end up thinking about a few weeks later and realize "what do i see in this person?" and it just kind of goes away. This one is special to me though, we hang out for the most part sober and get along great.

2c-b is a great medium while not being like either of the others on its own.....
 
Apples and Oranges.

Psychedelic Experience vs Entheogenic Experience.

Both together is pretty awesome.....

You mean psychedelic vs. Entactogenic experience?

I agree with killo though. LSD can be just as rough on my body as mdma. I am always scrambled mentally the following day after LSD and often sore in my lower back and other places for the following few days after LSD. I have had some awful following days after MDMA use especially emotionally where everything seems very dull, but there has been times where ive been left with a positive afterglow as well for a couple days.
 
MDMA is fun, but that's about it. I have had really amazing "life-changing" rolls, but it doesn't even hold a candle to a real psychedelic experience. Mushrooms and acid have changed me for my entire life, undoubtedly. I can't even begin to describe the things they have shown me, or helped me show myself. I just can't get that same dramatic effect without having my ego ripped, or being on the brink of tears fearing for the world and myself.

I mean, who wants all the good without any of the bad? It's just cheating..=D
 
It's all personal preference, they are also both EXTREMELY different drugs. I wouldn't really compare them or put them over one another unless it was discussing favourite drugs in general.
 
In my mind MDMA is the psychedelic without the challenge. I suppose i'm strange though as i've recieved greater euphoria from LSD than MDMA. The euphoria from MDMA was grand but much shallower and blander. For those reason MDMA doesn't hold much of a flame for me except for combining it with other psychedelics.
