going to take LSD for *first* time - so confused right now

Hey guys

So last week I received 5 tabs each containing 250micrograms. I bought them for a very reputable guy through some connections and it got sent to me by mail. I have done this many times with other stuff and always got amazing stuff of a high quality. The guys I buy from know what they are talking about and don't screw people over.

So last Thursday it arrived and I decided to take 1 at night after everyone went to bed. I am a very positive and mentally strong person, I did so much research, read so many trip reports and really prepared my self for it. I was so excited to take it and when I did, nothing happened at all. 5 hours later I took another just for the heck of it and nothing again. It pretty much went like this

22:00 - Take 1 and chill out
02:00 - Tried to sleep, normally I would easily be able to but just couldn't
03:00 - Got sick of trying to sleep and took another

I feIt was weird I didnt get any sleep till 12 pm. I had no idea why nothing happened and was very disappointing. There were many points where I felt like I was feeling something but then it went away. Could have been a possible placebo. Not sure at all why I could not sleep though, part of it I think was fear of just waking up and tripping balls in case it took a really long time to kick in. Though I pretty much assured myself that it would be fine and after not feeling anything for so long it was obvious all was ok though I was still awake.

It is also important to note that I dropped 3 pills (amphetamine based, no MDMA) the night before, got pretty fried but had a really easy come down as they were very clean and got 3 hours of sleep the night leading up the the LSD night. I then had a further 2.5 hours sleep just before I got up at 10 to take the LSD.

I think there is a good chance that the LSD got destroyed in the mail as it had been decently hot where the guy who sent it to me stays. He does however take every precaution, he drives it to the mailbox in a fridge and only drops it off when the post box is in the shade and cool. He vacuum packs it and sends it to me nicely.

Tomorrow I have a choice to make, either I go hard or go home. I have the whole day free to myself till 6pm at night. I have 3 tabs left and a few options

Take all 3 - If they work I will be totally on another level, could be too overwhelming of an experience but I feel very confident and very mentally strong and positive. Or some of the LSD was destroyed and what is left is able to give me a good trip.

Take 2 and take the next 1 hour later depending on how I am feeling - I know that you really cant redose past the 1-2 hour mark so I have to make the right decisions before then

I am scared that for some reason it didn't work the first time and the second tab I took that night wasn't used properly as was considered a wasted redose. Please advise on what you think may have caused the problem and what I should do tomorrow. I have been waiting to try LSD for soooo amazingly long.
 
they could have been 25 rather than 250mics ? because the effects you describe sound like a very low dose(just alertness). wait atleast 1 week before you try them again and maybe don't take all three just in case just the first one was weak(5h in you already had some tolerance when you redosed)...

100% sure they were meant to be 250mics. I was thinking the same thing that the effects were similar to what people say where it was just alertness. In all honesty I literally cannot wait a week. I know I should have more self control than that and what not but I feel so disappointed over the whole situation as I was so excited to try acid I just wanna do this and get it over with. If I feel nothing I will not be mad anymore.

Though seriously if I just take 1 and it ends up doing a tiny bit because most of the LSD had degraded but some still remained, that just means I have wasted 1 more. I need to ensure I make the most of the last 3 I have. Also wouldn't my tolerance be back down to nothing since I only received such a low dosage ( if any LSD at all the first time around)?
 
It is nigh impossible for you to have ingested 500ug of LSD and felt next to nothing. Are you taking any medication, especially SSRIs? Also, despite what your dealer may have told you, it's impossible for you or any of us to know if what you got was truly LSD or if the blotters were 250ug unless they were tested in a lab. You could have gotten a very low dose, the LSD could have been destroyed or you could have gotten another drug entirely. It is unfortunate, but that is the truth of the matter.

Above all, though, I believe you are going into it with the wrong attitude. First of all, you absolutely can literally wait a week or more. The blotters aren't going anywhere and if they are indeed LSD, they won't degrade any time soon if kept out of light, heat and moisture. Second of all, you should wait for a time when you have no obligations and have a free day afterwards to integrate the experience. LSD isn't something to arbitrarily take on your day off or try to squeeze into your schedule. As I'm sure you're aware, it is a highly powerful psychedelic and as I'm sure you've also heard, [mind]set and setting are more crucial with psychedelics than with any other drug. You should not go into the experience angry or disappointed because the last doses didn't work. Lastly, if you what you took the other day was LSD, you will have a tolerance and it will likely not have as much of, if any effect.

My suggestion would be to wait a while until you have a few days to yourself and are well-rested, in good overall health and have no major worries on your mind before you decide to try these doses again. How can you say you are a mentally strong person if you "literally can't wait"?
 
Are you 100% sure it was LSD, surely one 250ug blotter is enough for a first time tripper. Also are you sure you ingested it properly? I normally put the blotter between my upper lip and gum, normally takes 20 - 30 minutes before its disolved or swallowed.
 
Stop buying from him. Probably paid way too much for nothing at all. Probably is a really good salesman. It's rare that you see tabs dosed that high... but it's not so rare for them to be advertised as such. Find another dealer and do your research.
 
Yes, just like more than half of drivers think they have above average competence.... I bet a lot of people put too much confidence in their dealer.

I think it is not realistic that you ingested it improperly. Seems like quite the skill to me to misplace 250 or 500 ug of acid in your body.

The guy drove the LSD to the postal office in a fridge? lol, does he live on the sun? Sounds excessive, and one must also remember that temperature fluctuations are often worse than temperatures that are a little too high or too low.

We cannot identify the blotter for you... I would not conclude too much from this if I were you. I have occasionally heard of extreme hardheads that almost cannot trip on things like LSD. Although I am not a 100% sure if the product was verified each of those times. I think it would be ignorant to say that strong hard-headedness is absolutely impossible.

If you swallowed them pretty quickly, 25X-NBOMe could be an explanation fitting the whole story. But again: we can't be sure of anything.

Hey, how long did it take for it to arrive? I might buy from the same source. Maybe the vendor would be willing to send another blotter, it is possible for it to degrade in the heat...
 
LSD doesn't generally degrade so easily, does it? I mean I know it's sensitive to light, heat, moisture, but think of all the doses going from dealer to dealer sometimes being weeks (at least) between source and customer. I've taken doses more than a month after someone came off tour with them and still tripped hard with them having no more protection than a plastic baggie or vial in a closet. I just find it unlikely for this guy to have gone to such lengths to protect the product and it still have degraded that much...unless it had degraded before he got it maybe. Really I think it's passing too through many hands to say who or who isn't reliable though. I can agree people often put too much faith in their dealers for sure.

Also I have heard of people who basically can't trip and I've heard people claim to be that way, but I've never run across anyone given good strong hits of acid not being able to trip. I can at least understand how it could happen though.

As for a real why there's no telling. Try again, but I agree that you should wait a week or so.
 
Hey guys, so just reporting back. The LSD had definitely degraded. The seller is good and a reliable dude, he offer me a decent partial refund as it was neither his nor my fault. The prices I paid are also way better then street prices. Also sorry he said the blotters contain on average 200 micro grams but the minimum is 150 and the max is 250.

I ended up taking 2.5 blotters and had a very low dose acid trip, probably 80 - 100 micrograms. It was really fun but I can understand why you need to sort of have at least a whole 24-48 hours free. It was a pretty good experience and I will definitely be buying from the same person again. I talked with him much and he was a really cool guy, I am certain this was not his fault. This person isn't just the dealer, they actually import LSD and then apply it to the blotters themselves so they know what they're putting on it.

I am actually glad I got a very light trip and not a heavy one, I feel like I have fimilarized myself very well with the altered state of thinking because I didn't have very intense visuals. I will definitely make a report the next time I order some and have a free period of time.

Can you tell the design of the blotters? The vendor seems to be professional.

Like a boss... :)


To the OP: Some people like to take doses high enough that redosing is unnecessary. I feel that redosing is a waste, but that's just me. I know that if I took a 20 strip then I definitely would not even be capable of redosing... That's just my point of view. People who enjoy lower doses may benefit from redosing at the expense of more LSD.
