im sorry if this has been asked before as I did utfse but found nothing.

Im very intrested in acid
[but wont be doing it for a while (like a year)
because of my mindset. im very bipolor/depressed right now.]

anywho i've done e and weed.
[never did shrooms]
i like e alot
but weed i get parniod.

my questions is "Is acid like e with the clarity? or like weed where it feels scattered?"
I hate the scattered feeling and if its like that then maybe acid isn't the drugs from me :/
 
To me, the tripping head space could be described, using your examples, as the clear defined thought process that MDMA has, plus some wildness and strange patterns like weed, although I don't tend to get anxious at the same time tripping like I do with weed.

thats crazy, im going through the exact same thing. infatuated with ecstasy, weed's boring to me now and i really want to try acid. but i have a lot of mental sorting to do before i can go onto something like lsd. and i was thinking the same questions.

Is it the best idea to tell people considering first time LSD use that you don't tend to get as anxious as you do on weed? I get anxious on LSD EVERY time I take it, I'm just entirely used to the feeling of paranoia creeping and I can deal with it no problem. Also the first couple of times I took acid I can't say I found this clear defined thought process. In hindsight, yeah, at the time... not so much.

Just think that what you said sounds a little too much like "LSD is the wonder drug you're looking for" to me. Approach it with respect and without expectations and see what you find. It affects people differently.
 
Its not a party drug and one potent chemical. If u like being in a different state of mind and different world then go for it. Just make sure u read up on set and setting and as much info as u can. Its a bloody awesome drug. Respect it and it will respect u. Easy to have a bad time on it if not cautious.
 
I definitely find weed gives me more unfounded anxiety than psychedelics. With a psychedelic just make sure you're in a good set&setting, know what you're taking and how much. Do as much reading on the subject as you can.

For starters here's our Big&Dandy LSD thread with a lot of links in the first post.

Here's our Big&Dandy Set&Setting thread

Have a read through them and use the "search this thread" function. Feel free to ask any follow up questions in those threads. I'm going to close this one.

Acids not like ecstacy or weed, it does not have that many typical characteristics - nor does ecstacy but that is not necessarily a psychedelic. You're right about the clean part though, LSD makes everything feel transparent and at the same time more intense and deep and beautiful. It's pretty synthetic, like it is computerized instead of intoxicating clouded or dreamy. It's rather like you are much more awake than in a dream though at higher doses you can get hallucinations of course. I find it to be much much less confusing than mushrooms or weed and the visuals can get photoshopped-like just as with 2C-B.

Just read up on it man, get your basic research covered. Take the time to read stuff left and right opening yourself up to information before starting with questions. And the Big & Dandy LSD thread is really helpful, subjects are organized now as well - I hope you will find it all comes in handy.
 
Two things:

- Do NOT take LSD if you're pretty depressed right now and bipolar! I would have to admit that many psychedelic users have at least mild bipolar tendencies (of which it is not all that clear if its the cause or effect) but forget about trying it for the first time if youre not stable. Seriously.

- I read (again) that this is reopened per request but what is the point of this thread exactly? Your basic question about comparison looks answered, plus asking about what LSD is like is something we don't host separate threads for: you need to do research instead of expecting a simple answer to a question that is inbetween complex and impossible for the uninitiated to ask like that.

Please give some feedback and participate in discussion that goes somewhere or I'm real sorry for ya but its not worthwhile enough for anyone to keep having it open.
 
OP I'd say acid isnt comparable with either weed or e.

It can be very confusing, depending on the trip, sometimes you have a clear insightful mind. Id say the first few trips are more confusing; the more experinced you become with the drug the more comfortable you are with the trip. I feel the more you trip the more you appriecate the beauty of the drug.

I find it to be much more intense than any other drug (I havent tried RCs) but more intense than any pills or stims. Because of how long the trip lasts.. also it involves all your senses. Its a full body experince, everything sight, hearing, taste, touch, smell and it also affects your thought pattern.

Awesome drug though I recomend it anyone.
 
thanks for all your reponses guys.
i know im not going to get a simple anwser.
but you know when your high? and everything seems out of order and you can't think stright and its takes an hour just to remember what you were think. . andI can't control myself that well on weed and i hate it with E everything is so clear im aware of what im doing every second im rolling and i feel the thought process isn't easier but can be made almost as normal as sober.

i know acid is called a trip for a reason I just don't want 12 hours of feelling like being high cause i know theres like thl in cid. or whatever. .

and yes solipisis I understand that I should not fry right now as stated in the OP.
 
explaining what tripping is like to someone who has never done it is kind of like describing the color red to someone who has been blind their entire life. Its just kind of red.

The head space can vary a bit from drug to drug and experience to experience. My first acid trip was marked by mental chaos, but i embraced it and it was one of the most beautiful things i have ever experienced.

The rest of the acid trips have been less mentally chaotic, not what i would call calrity but somewhere in the middle. Odd thought patterns, getting lost in everything....

i need to drop acid again, july was the last time i dropped and indeed the last time i tripped. I need to clear some cob webs out of my head...
 
i was shit scared of takin acid for years
had my first trip last week , was relatively weak though still quite enjoyable

i thought i was gona freak out for sure , but it was fine , felt alot easier on the mind
than shrooms

Are you diagnosed with bipolar? It sounds like you may be diagnosing yourself- one doesn't get very bipolar, wither one is or isn't really. If you take a lot of E, epect to be moody, but be hesitant to classify it as bipolar.

Acid is pretty much completely different to MDMA imo; MDMA is only slightly hallucinogenic, whereas LSD is completely so- if your an anxoious person, ultimately, I would say LSD is better in the long tterm, as your not thrashing your poor ole serotonin receptors that much. You may have a difficult trip (and yes, there is a scattery element to it) but you will come-down feeling content, as opposed to loathsome and hideous from MDMA.
 
thanks swilow for you insite. .
though..
i have been diagnosed w/ a bi-polor [as so does my mom]
they tried to put me on medication but i didn't want to.
I rather try to fix it myself. . .I get extremes like a really happy thought then it usually follows
with a depressing thought so i know my trip would prob be like a rollor coaster.
its especially worse during fall/winter seasons which is weird because fall is my favorite season.

Although I have not been diagnosed w/ depression and guess is could come off the bi-polor.
its hard to keep myself happy. . .a 24/7 job. . .but i guess most people have to deal with that.

I really would think trying acid would be a great insight in myself and I do want to try it soon.
I guess ill will just do a little more research.

thanks.

[also i don't do e very much (about 8 times in 2 years) because how it does affect my mind.
I never had axiety attacks before I tried E. . .so i am very cautious with that drug.]

or have anxiety problems.

Imbalances in brain chemistry as far as bipolar disorder goes.
Traumatic experiences, general issues concerned with growing up and how one was raised, or again something like an imbalance in brain chemistry could cause anxiety in a person.

There are a lot of conditions caused by a lot of things, short of it not being a chemical problem your looking at social and enviromental factors for a lot of things. You are the result of your experiences thus far in your life.

I am shy, and i have come to realize that the shyness is likely a result of me not being around my dad much growing up, and my mother paying more attention to my sister, i learned to happy by myself which carried on into who i am today.

Another reason would be that growing up i noticed that all of these people who had lots of "friends" had lives filled with drama because someone would always be starting something with someone. I decided that it would be better to keep a few close friends and i could avoid all the bullshit.

Furthur progressing my lack of willingness to make connections with a lot of people and step out of my comfort zone of having just a few people close to me.

Take a psychology course or two, you will probably learn a lot about yourself. College psychology has been an awesome learning experience. My next trip is probably going to be 'interesting' given these recent things being brought out as far as how i came to be me at this moment. Hopefully it shall be a productive experience.

Yea if you do too much MDMA or have dirty pills.

If you do a fair amount of MDMA the comedown is not negative at all.

It's only dumb asses that take too much or do dirty pills that get the shitty come downs.

I love MDMA's after effects.
 
i wouldnt do shrooms if your were hella bipolar cause me and two of my other friends shroomed,like 3/4ths a 8th each and chris(the bipolar one) was going insane and flipping out,like i thought he was about to kill himself but yea,acids fucking fun.
