Do you change after using LSD?

I got my first official invite to trip next weekend. I'm having mixed thoughts however, as I'm currently going through a lot of stress and facing past trauma. On the other hand, would I be okay if I took only one tab? Could the trip even help me face the shit in my life? I would really like to experience this, but I don't know what's going to happen... like, will my mind and the way I think be changed forever? I hear you're never the same afterwards, which I'm not comfortable with at all.

So, perhaps lsd isn't a drug I should try (at least not now)-- though I say that with much disappointment. Any thoughts from the experts?
 
i was shit scared of acid for five years , thinnkin all the worst possible scenarios

but when i finally manned up n took it , it was nuthin , like shrooms but ur bursting with this kind of joy , and everything seems 10000x more interesting

walkin around the block in the drizzling rain at 4am in suburbia can even be one of the most fun walks of ur life goin from experience , its way less headfuck than shrooms , it feels almost fully natural , unlike shrooms with the bodyload n shit

unless ur gona take a massibve amount of lsd , most iv had is 3 or 4 decent hits in one night
 
and yes it will help u deal with ur problems , unless theyr really bad ugly ones .

in that case it could manifest into u stressing urself into a negative state
 
^ lol, thanks!
well I think the setting is gonna be good. we're going to be in a treehouse in the middle of nowhere. I just need to get my head in the right place I guess.

I just... don't like the idea of fucking with my head. tho, I've probably already fucked it up with bath salts. =/
 
Im also in the same boat as you.
I wish to try LSD but am not sure of the Consequences.

My mother has Schizophrenia, I suffered a lot because of this during my childhood.

I have a very strong mind, but at the same time My imagination can be Wild.
 
Doing it a couple of time's i doubt will change you that much, the more you do it the more it changes the way you think.. Make's you more able to critically think, also may turn you into a hippy.
 
People strong in their headspace and character will not change very much but can.

People that aren't could possibly come upon realizations that make them feel like after trying it, they changed a bit.

Now either of these two taking 10 hits of potent lsd, will cause (i'm guessing) a definite ego death which would then change you as a person.

If you had your entire concept of ego and self dissolved in front of you, floated around in space, and then had it reconstructed using your hyper intelligent brain before you came down, wouldn't you Expect to feel different after?
 
LSD is the most self-therapeutic psychedelic for me. I learn a lot about myself after each trip and I try to change myself for the better. I think I'm quite good at it ;]
 
I'd probably just take 1 hit of lsd i wouldnt want to do any more.

I just want to experience some of the colour changes , and sound changes.

I dont want so much that crazy stuff starts happening

Just start off taking a half blotter, and see how you feel after about 1.5 - 2 hours.. If you have a lot of shit going on in your life atm, the last thing you want is a bad trip on LSD, believe me! Just make sure you are comfortable with the people you are tripping with, and try to go somewhere remote to experience the trip fully, Bring some benzos and a lot of high dose vitamin C tabs - to bring you down off the trip smoothly.

LSD changed me.

It showed me that who I thought I was... and who I really was did not agree.

It revealed me to myself... it revealed the "ego" and all its illusions and defense mechanisms.

It's a lesson learned that you apply even after tripping. I feel I have a better awareness of things now and if you were to ask people who know me well they would say I have become a lot more "real" since.

God bless LSD.
 
Taking a benzo during the comedown sounds like a great idea! do I take enough just enough to calm me down, or knock me out if things are going poorly?
yeah, I'm actually experiencing depersonalization/derealization from anxiety brought on my mdpv. so, forgot to mention that, but that's a really big factor in this.
 
I'd say it only changes you if you want to change, and usually in the way you want to. If you have conflicting thoughts about what you'd want you could interpretate that as a possibly unwanted change, but personally LSD didn't change me much, and the only things it did change were absolutely positive insights I wanted anyway.

If you are in a really bad mindset I'd recommend against it, not because of after effects but mainly because in that caze you might not enjoy the experience. The more positive you feel behore hand the more likely you are to have a really good experience.

Depends on why the person is in a bad mindset though...

If its something illusory like perceived problems, or perceived inadequacies or guilts... then psychedelics have a great way of showing you how to just love life and be happy instead.

If its real problems like thing you are running from or trying to avoid about yourself or life... or if you are a bad person and deserve to feel bad about things then yeah... get ready for a bad trip, well probably a horrific one because you will be thinking about that at hyper-speed for an eternity squeezed into 8-12hrs.
 
^^^you don't think it could possibly help? like, I have a lot of issues but find it's really hard to express myself for a bunch of reasons. I feel like acid could give me the push I need. or, I guess it could just be a shitty trip, lol.

I think you should.

You seem like a good person, don't ask me why I think that its just the vibe I have...

But LSD can be an awesome tool for personal growth.

I don't know if you believe in fate or not... but having been invited to trip like you were sounds like a good sign to me.

After losing count of how many times I had ingested LSD after 100 (what was the point of counting after that)....

Honestly, I believe the whole "oh, it will change you" is a bunch of bullshit.

It's not going to magically change you. If you start thinking about issues, then you'll think about those issues. You might get distracted by music or whatever strings of enlightenment you're going to have.

It's unpredictable. But if you' are dwelling or already thinking about your issues, then that's going to the prominent theme of your trip.

Don't trip as an attempt to resolve issues. Just go into it looking for enlightenment or recreation... but if you go into it like it's some magic psychotherapeutic tool. Because it's not. It can be under the right circumstances or by mistake.. but if you go into it by yourself under those pretenses, you're probably just going to have a bad trip.

I disagree though, I remember reading a study where they gave alcoholics LSD and had them focus on their drinking and a list of questions they wanted to ask themselves during the trip. It had pretty positive results, LSD is a useful psychotheraputic tool.
