Hey, ive just been checking out things on the internet because my girlfriend, who has had one seizure in her life about a month and a half ago, and i split a tab of lsd yesterday around 2pm and she suffered a total of six tonic-clonic seizures over the course of the trip, affecting her at 3:30ish pm, 4:15 pm, 5 pm, 5 45 pm, 6:50 pm and 7:50 pm. unfortunately i havent been able to find any information correlating to lsd intake and seizures, so ill write our experience here for anyone in the future who may be looking. we were both quite surprised because wed taken so little each, i barely felt the effects and it was both our first times taking it. not to say i was entirely free of effects, but i had no visual hallucinations and other then a state of stoked-ness that lasted for about five hours was relatively unaffected. anyways we learnt a lot about how seizures work on her, basically she sees mad psychedelic colours in the top left corner of her vision and her whole body gradually tenses up left as she finds herself unable to look away from the colours and is drawn into them, at which point she enters what appears to be the clonic phase of the seizure for about 45 seconds and is then in a state of disoriented heavy sleep for about 7 minutes afterwards, and after waking remains quite disoriented but recovers gradually over a period of at least half an hour. She learned to recognize that the seizure was about to occur when she saw the crazy colours and i attempted to talk her out of the seizure and keep her distracted from the colours as long as possible. My father also suffers from epilepsy due to getting knocked out playing hockey as a kid, however his fits are few and far between. He ended up undergoing a series of exams in the 80s and they discovered the root of this epilepsy was because part of his brain had been killed in the hockey accident and that the fits occurred whenever his brain attempted to use this dead part. He also learnt that whenever he noticed one coming on all he had to do was simply focus on a task and the feeling would come to pass, and that he was incapable of having a fit when doing something, it only happened if he was sitting down zoning out. I decided that getting her to process quick easy math would hopefully give her brain something else to think about and perhaps stop the spread of the fit throughout the brain, however also realized that her form of epilepsy was likely completely different from my fathers. A combination of these techniques proved somewhat effective, as the first couple times she experienced the seizure she went almost immediately into the clonic phase (within 5 seconds) however with me talking her through it and attempting the distract her vision from the colours we managed to make it as long as 20-25 seconds before she finally succumbed. I should also note that when the first six seizures first began her pupils got very large and would look as far into the top left quadrant of her vision as they could and could not look away. After the sixth seizure i made the room as dark as possible for her thinking that perhaps light had something to do with triggering the seizure, and it may have been correct or perhaps the lsd was simply wearing off. regardless, my friend opened the door to the room at 9:50 pm and let a sliver of light into the room, at which point she told me it was happening again, however her tone changed quickly and said it was much milder this time and she thought she could stop it. I told my friend to close the door and we were back in darkness. He left the room after asking me a quick couple questions and closed the door again behind him letting as little light into the room as possible. I then asked my girlfriend if it had stopped and she said not yet, but did not sound worried, and 10 seconds later she told me it had passed. the night passed relatively event free and we just hung out in bed unable to fall asleep until around 4 in the morning. she was quite restless the whole time but i thought it prudent to stay in the dark at least until she had had a full nights sleep in case any other seizure may have occurred, i did not think her body would thank her if she had any more.
anyways, to any epileptics out there who may be looking to try lsd, if your fits resemble the type my girlfriend has suffered i would definitely not recommend acid, or if you really want to try do it in as safe an environment as possible where someone would know how to react if your threshold level got lowered as dramatically as my girlfriends, as well as being prepared for an unbelievably sore tongue, mind and body the next day.
