Advanced tripping: 2.0

I agree if you can comfortably trip at home and walking around in public without fucking up, you're an advanced tripper.

I cannot do this yet.

I also think breakthroughs lead to advancement, but understanding what goes on there is hard. 8o8(

I don't think you guys need to go to town with the mixing. All can be obtained from using single substances and getting to know each one. Separate experiences can build to one whole idea over time. Don't waste your time in the crash unit.

Psychotic episodes and hospital trips to get your tummy pumped are very real nightmares.
 
Just take a strip of some good acid, and lay down on your bed in darkness with your favorite music playing. You'll leave your body for a while, but its the only way I enjoy LSD anymore.
 
I once went on a walk in the large empty plowed field near my house with my dog on a strong afterglow event and had just about the time of my life out there. I actually just started running! It was pretty interesting. I ran so much I was sore the next day. The fresh air rushed over my face like a liquid. I understood fluid dynamics.

I suppose I can handle outside in controlled situations but not amongst people so well. I haven't been able to do that since that one shroomy Primus concert. blegh! Even my friends couldn't handle it for once. lololol
 
^ controlled situation for sure, I cant stand drunk people while tripping.

I've got a big screen T.V. at home, last weekend I got stuck watching the music screen on ps3 for about 3 hours. There was music playing, but because I was so tripped out by the screen I wasent even listening to it, took me a few hours till I realised the misses had gone to bed and I could finally put on some trance.
 
go to the zoo, best day out I ever had.
i've thought about this and decided against it. i don't think i could handle the tiny little cages all the beautiful animals are trapped in.
i can get very dark on the way humans have destroyed everything on the planet when i'm tripping.
 
I chose the wrong topic title, with 'advanced' I didn't mean reckless/neurotoxic.
Jesusgreen his ideas are wonderful :) I'll channel my energy into something useful.
 
Any game with hardcore mode + psychedelics sounds like loads of fun to me right now. Hardcore as in when you die you're dead.
 
yeh i guess it would be important to pick a good zoo, i went to the toaronga park zoo in sydney, you have to get there on a ferry across the harbour, so the whole trip starts out with a fanstic journey in front of the harbour bridge and the sydney opera house, and then taronga is a fantastic zoo, lots of great enclosures, the animals are well cared for and any that did seem a bit sad or stressed we were able to project some loving energy to them which felt great thing to do.
 
Very subjective really; the settings you can safely handle whilst tripping are dependant on so many factors. For example I can take two tabs of LSD and merge into normal social situations with no problems, yet if a single toke of weed is added control implodes and my mind goes to incredibly dark places. That said, psychedelic + ketamine in a dark solo setting would probably be a good intro into 'advanced tripping'.
 
The only difference between a rookie and an "experienced" tripper is how they handle the anxiety. The confusion or head fuck of higher doses will floor even seasoned trippers , especially once you enter the public eye. Some would argue only the experience should trip at a large music festival. Some like to test their boundarys by exposing themselves to unusual stimulus such as a shocking movie or intense music and see it as some sort of badge of honor to come through with out incident. Personally I would prefer all my trips to be pleasant so I see no need to try and push these limits.

Being comfortable in public opens many new settings. Art galleries and markets are particularly nice, as can social gatherings with friends. Low doses work better than dick sizing, particularly if you are mixing with sober individuals. It takes experience not to come across as a gibbering idiot. Camping by yourself or a friend requires a level of expertise particularly if you plan on cooking while tripping.

The day I spent jet skiing around one of the islands in the great barrier reef was definitely a test of all my skills, especially when the water police stopped us for a breath test. An experienced tripper knows how to avoid a jail cell ;)
 
^ I've taken to subjecting myself to unusual stimuli. It's always been good on acid. Watch a movie that is particularly dark and fucked up, not for a badge of honor, but rather to see where my mind will take me.
Also being a massive psy head, I try to mix it up and listen to old music from when I was younger to get the nostalgia and throw the lessons of years past into my conscious mind, through music.
 
I find dark movies to be too much of a head fuck to even gain some retrospect afterwards. I don't need or want the downward spiral that comes with a movie like American psyco or something similar. Give me cheesy 80's john hughes movies any trip ;)
 
Zoo, aquarium, IMAX, weekend outdoor excursion, darkness and headphones,etc..

once settled, add ketamine and/or DMT. a level up, 4 sheez. heh
 
BSC:
The shocking music isn't necessarily for a badge of honor in others eyes but in my own. One main reason I use psychedelics is to help me over come fear and guilt in my life. As much as anyone else I enjoy light, pleasent trips but when the trips are all love and light I don't grapple with my fear that I have. The music helps me to identify emotions and work through why I am feeling them, therefore helping myself to overcome fear. It is not for everyone and I agree-I don't think I'd want to watch American Psycho while tripping because I don't see constructive growth coming out of anaylizing that movie-however something like Baraka or Videodrome or The Flight from Death tend to lead my mind to places that hold fear of something that I can't quite overcome in a sober state of mind.

I still can't go out in public though while under the influence...that may be a next step in helping overcome fear and guilt though :)
 
Meditation can be extremely rewarding on psychedelics. Choose a spot where you can be alone, be it a quiet room or a beautiful place somewhere outside. Just don't choose a too energetic compound for it.
