So I went to Electric forest festival this weekend in Rothbury, and I was planning on trying acid there for quite some time even though i have never had a psychedelic experience before. So we get some acid and one person we were with who is a straight up psychonaut said this acid was fire and 4 doses had him more fucked up then the time he did 12. So I bought 2 and so did my friend, with my friend doing both and me planning on only doing 1. We go to the first set of string cheese incident and I start feeling really good and my friend is saying he's twice as spun as the time he did 6 drops of liquid and I was not feeling that much. I have a natural tolerance to weed and molly so i was like what the hell I'll drop the second dose (definitely should have waited more than an hour for the effects but I dont regret the second dose). So the first SCI set ends and i drop the second dose as we walk into the electric forest to wait for the second set. I realize the first dose kicks in and I cannot stop laughing and I am thinking oh boy Im gonna finally realize what a trip is like. We finally go back to the second set and the music sounds amazing, the trippy LEDs and lazers look amazing, but all of a sudden I notice that my body feels WEIRD. Like it feels numb almost, like I'm outside of my body. I reach for my cell phone and it feels like i reach down about 15 feet to get to my pocket (this feeling of extended arms lasted the entire trip). I start feeling as if im getting sucked into the trippy visuals on the LED screen and I start sweating alot and attempt to leave the crowd with my friend to get some water. So far no crazy visuals, but as we attempt to leave the crowd I realize that no matter how far I walk through the mass of people, the end is not getting any closer and this FREAKED me out. Eventually after alot of walking we make it to the end and I go to buy my water. I go up to the counter which is the first place I can really focus without too much stimuli and i realize that everything in my vision is melting sideways in different directions. Im starting to get scared but eventually we go back in to the crowd and I just dance and try to keep bad thoughts out of my head. I never lost control, but it was like watching a movie on the edge of your seat the entire time, it was like any moment I could lose it, but luckily I kept my cool. I also could not communicate for shit the entire night and any conversation I was involved in, I would just make up what I thought they were saying and just randomly laugh like I knew what people were talking about. Overall a neutral trip and very intense first experience, and I am proud of myself for keeping cool on what the psychonaut said was probably 250ug in 2 hits. I will definitely try it again with a lower dose, because the only thing I did not enjoy was the mass confusion (I couldn't count the hours on my hand from 7:30-12:00 to figure out how long it had been since I had dosed, also I lost sense of where I was several times). Crazy crazy experience overall, especially at something as trippy as string cheese incident.
