Everyone says tripping during the day is much better, more color, more visuals, more everything, but I cant see ANY visuals at all in the light. I laugh alot, I run around like an idiot in the forest and swing from tree to tree acting like a monkey and tripping out on things that most people would find boring, but when there's light I don't see visuals.

Then I look into a dark open space of nothingness, and all I see is images EVERYWHERE, fractals, rivers of color, waterfalls of images and objects.

So my question is, why no visuals in the light, but visuals everywhere in the dark.
 
hmm.., visuals can be more pronounced at night - but, daytime tracers and colors and stuff are great - how many times have you tripped? how much did you take in the daytime?
 
I'd say over 50 times. I started about 4 months ago.

I took 3 hits in the daytime, one of my largest doses of LSD, and I was properly fucked off my face, I can tell you that :P , just no visuals.

(Time - Pink Floyd <-- best song ever, i must add to this, dunno why, me & lucy are having a blast right now I guess)
 
i would give it another try sometime - at night there are lots more wild patterns and stuff everywhere - but, there are very cool things in the daylight as well.. i used to love tripping all night in the woods and then the soft dawn light comes up and everything is so different.. vibrant colors.. tricks of the sun.. i like to see how strongly the visuals show up without the dark..

wow! Malta? i bet things are awesome there! :)
 
I shall give it another, thanks :)

Well.. its alright here I guess.. nobody who loves to trip as much as I do though, the only person who loved it as much or maybe even more than me moved to America.. I like tripping alone and all, but sometimes its nice to have a companion in the adventures.

I think it kind of depends on the substance.

For me, phenethylamines require sunshine & a gorgeous natural setting for the full visual spectrum to manifest.

While tryptamines in general are definitely best utilized in darkness and varying degrees of sensory deprivation.

I don't know who this "everyone" is that insists on the superiority of daytrips. Sounds like they've taken their own personal preferences and presented it as a universal truth.

I prefer the darkness, myself...

EDIT: If you've tripped ~50 times in the past 4 months, I'm suprised that you're getting any effects at all, nevermind impressive visuals... seems perhaps a bit excessive? Or have I misunderstood...

Depends on what you're tripping on.

Some drugs lend better OEV's in the dark, others will give you OEV's no matter the light content of the environment you're in.
 
@ Propyl_Power : no you haven't misunderstood, I have tripped around 50 times in 4 months, maybe 5 I'm not sure. It hasn't changed at all, its always great and time doesnt seem to effect it at all, but hey, thats me.

& Captain.H I'm tripping on LSD.

And what are OEV's if you dont mind me asking :)
 
Um... I think the problem is that you've tripped 50 times in 4 months. Think about it, 120 days = 4 months = tripping slightly less then every other day.
 
50 times is a bit exaggerated. Sorry, I'm not thinking right at this moment :)

Lets lower it to 20 - 30.

eugh, i feel like a troll, exaggerated stories. :|
 
i was only asking to see if you knew what full on tripping should feel like in case you had a weak dose or something,, i do remember a lot of good night trips - once or twice we even went into an abandoned mine and messed around in complete darkness.. lol...
night time at home is also fun - one of the coolest things i encountered was the old strobe light we had around - if you want intense visuals just set up a strobe for a few minutes.. man - everything turned into crawling patterns..

for daytime trips.. nature is always the best - once i took shrooms at the ocean and that was amazing.. :)
 
Yeah, nature is awesome. Too bad I've only met three people who like tripping & nature, in Malta. Two move back to their homeland , one becomes a wannabe-pastor.

Meh.. too bad theres no Maltese people on here, it'd be a blast having people to go nuts with for a bit. :|
 
Still sounds like a little more than once a week, is that right? I find that LSD has a pronounced tolerance if I push things even to a consistent weekly dosage schedule. 2Cs are the only psychedelics I've found so far that I can trip that frequently on while still getting visuals - strangely, while visuals require some effort to tease out on tryptamines at all but the highest doses for me, even fairly low doses of 2Cs with mild tolerance built up is barely any less visual than I would expect with a higher dose and/or no tolerance.
 
Yes, it would be a little more than once a week. Unfortunately Malta doesn't have many psychedelics available (to me at least) . Belladonna, LSD & the occasional (but shitty) mushrooms are the only psych's I've found here.

Oh and that "Meow" fertilizer stuff, but I dont wanna touch that. Fertilizer into My Body = No.
edit : is it even considered a psychedelic? Some people say they trip off it. Internet says MDMA-like.

I've taken 1 tab a day, for four days, Each day it was stronger, but then on the fourth day, nothing at all.
 
IME this effect differs with every substance, some have much better visuals in dark, some in light, some with OEV and others CEV. Must depend on the way visual information is processed or lack thereof. Two different things I suppose?

absolutely. i've always found lsd visuals to be best in daylight, while mushrooms give better visuals at night. both have pretty nice oev, while cev can be a bit boring with acid. on the other hand dmt really shines only in the cev department.
 
30 trips in 4 months is a bit excessive imo, take a longer break and they'll come back

edit: also, with all the pupil dilation your visual cortex is "overstimulated" in the light, making tracers and halos the only things you see. try blinking less and staring intently at non-moving things to enable the trippyness to show back up in your brain. obviously don't stare at the sun while your pupils are dilated either.
