LSA HBWR -5 seeds - Experiencing myself

I am a freshman in college. I have experienced the effects of many different drugs. MDMA has always been my favorite, along with LSD (which I have only used once).
This experience was my third LSA trip in two months. I first experienced LSA earlier that year from Morning Glory seeds, but never got the full trip. The first trip on LSA from HBWR seeds was very powerful and allowed me to explore certain parts of my consciousness effortlessly. I spent the evening chatting away with an old friend, allowing us to grow a lot closer in the process. After this, a hilarity and lightness of body was experienced and I was unable to fall asleep until about 7 hours after I took the seeds.
For the trip in question, I cleared off the fuzzy cover of five seeds. Then, I soaked them in warm water for about 2 hours. After washing the seeds some more, I chewed them and drank them down with some water.
It was a Friday afternoon. I was feeling very good, and very excited that I would trip during the day and get to see nature in daylight. My mind was fairly clear.

T0:30 About half an hour after dosing, while watching the movie Pi (one of my favorites), I went over to see my friend Jer, in the room down the hall. He was excited about my trip and said that it would be better if I smoked some cannabis. I was already beginning to feel a little light and funny, and I said ok. He gave me a small bud, and not having smoked weed in about 50 weeks, I ripped off a fourth of it and said, “this is enough”.

T1:30 Following this, I loaded the top quarter of a cigarette with the cannabis-tobacco mix, and finished watching Pi, as I came up higher and higher. I went outside to have my weed-a-rette and once I took those warm tokes, only one full pull of actual cannabis, I already began to feel good. I sat there on a bench in the smoking area in my dorm and then I saw my floor mates near me smoking weed. Once I finished my cigarette, an RA and a dorm official came outside to smoke. I decided I would stay a little bit to draw their attention from my neighbors. I sat there, smoked another cig, and talked to the RA and the dorm lady. They were talking about some pointless boring things and in the middle of the conversation, I began to feel warm inside and began to see them in extreme detail. In another minute, I began to feel overwhelmed by this sensory clarity and began to see little ripples in front of me, electric rips in space time. I left their company and headed inside. During the 20 second walk from the door to the elevator, I was experiencing full blown hallucinations. I could barely see past them, the rips in space time. It was as through the world was now filled with holes. I waited a second for the elevator to come, and when I stepped in, with about five other people, I could not even see their faces. I was immersed in the hallucinations. At this point I was thinking only, “Why did I do this?” I thought that I messed up, that now I would feel the overwhelming state for hours and probably get sick. I got to my room, took off my jacket and sat down. And suddenly, the hallucinations subsided and I was feeling better, and stronger, and my trip suddenly became great and amazing. I felt both the lightness and sedation of the LSA, as well as the body buzz of the cannabis. My thoughts were very clear and focused. I sat and listened to music for about an hour and did some writing.

T 2:30 I decided to lie down and relax and think. I ended up experiencing a strong visionary state during which I was able to deal with parts of myself I did not want to affect my thoughts and actions. I encountered a part of me which was always scared, paranoid and just in general weak. This part of me began to overwhelm me and make me feel afraid, until I had a thought I never really had before, “Why be upset and weak?”. The thought blew my mind and I arose from my state and just walked around the dorm feeling incredibly happy.

T 4:00 The cannabis buzz was gone, but the seeds were still working their magic. I felt pretty euphoric and my mind was still clear. I went to the dining hall to get some food, and walked around outside for a while, chain smoking cigarettes, which tasted very good. Everything outside looked so gorgeous, and I kept looking up at the sky and feeling overwhelmed. I saw this guy who lives on my floor, someone I have been a bit infatuated with for a while, and I realized why I like him, because he reminds me of a guy who had abused me when I was younger. I realized that liking people who remind me of this guy sets me back, and I am usually attracted to guys like that. I always thought that the guy abused me out of some twisted version of love, but I saw that I am just rationalizing something traumatic to create the illusion that the events of 6th grade didn’t fuck me up. I felt so relieved.

T 6:00 With my renewed appreciation for life and myself I went out with a new friend of mine and we talked about relationships and drugs for hours. I felt very open and very happy.

T 9:00 I felt down, but still elated and energized for hours. Truly my most intense psychedelic experience, with absolutely no ill effects. I am very thankful for this experience because I feel a lot more mature and strong now, able to deal with the pains of living and the fears around me. The trip was half a year ago and I still tell myself, “Stop it!” when I become anxious. Of course the trip could not perfectly solve all of my problems, but it gave me a new perspective on them. I am surprised however that the early synergy of the cannabis and LSA led to a few minutes of full blown hallucinations.
 
Nice report!, i did lsa once with a friend i groun up 4 seeds(HBWR) for each of us and put them in vegi-caps i think because that we had eaten it must of stopped the trip somehow, we both felt absolutely nothing and that has put me off morning glory & HBWR lsa in general the fact that too much lsa makes your limbs turn blue also contributed to this, your report has inspired me to make another attempt once again nice report!

Thanks for your comment. Just dont do it too often and test out which doses work for you. I'm a 180 lb male and 5 - 7 seeds should be enough to have a nice experience. I have known people who took up to 20, or up to 500 Morning glory seeds- they had aweful reactions:/

It is true that the seeds can cause the limbs to turn blue, so be careful. It is however a good idea to grind them up and put them in caps, the taste of chewing them makes my skin crawl.
 
LightSeeker, thank you for your report. It trully shows the power of LSA if you can handle it in a manner that will educate instead of scare you.

I had a very similar insight, which unleashed my rational mind upon my subconcious, where I was able to pick apart my attractions I surround myself with. For me, it was a realization that (although I never wanted to admit it) I looked for mother figures since my mother growing up had failed me in my own eyes. In the early days, I looked up to my sister instead, and now that she's gone, I seek motherly figures to leech onto in my attractions to females.

But this insight is also a burden, because sometimes the deepest roots are hard to change, and if you catch yourself and get frustrated at your initial behavior this can lead to depression and/or general self-hatred. Sometimes people don't want to come to terms with what they see in themselves (whether or not they realize it), and will mask it with abuse to themselves.. whether it be the most obvious form [physical] or perhaps addicting themselves to preoccupations.

I'm still struggling with this, and I wish you luck. All that I can say is that LSA/hallucinogens aren't always fun, and sometimes it takes the false impression that you're masking pain with this drug to open your eyes that you want shut.
 
Stagnant reaction, thank you for your reply :) Your experience feels so very familiar. LSA can be pretty mild compared to its cousin LSD and others, but it has the ability to alter thoughts more than create a strong body high. My thoughts were so overflowing with symbolism that when I saw that guy, I realized that he looked exactly like the guy who abused me. The thought made me shrug and the more I thought about it, the more I saw the connection in my sub conscious mind. It was releasing at the same time as very frightening. I also saw the link between the guy who abused me and my dislike of my father. In trying to replace a dead beat dad, I seek out guys who are like him in some way, either older, unemotional, or with the same weird quirks he had. This is what we do, we are addicted to our pain, and our mind compensates and decompensates by trying to mask our actual fears. Its an incredibly advanced defense mechanism, which can sometimes be removed by these psychoactives which allow us to pierce the veil of common reality. I believe that ignorance is not bliss, I would rather know the truth, despite how scary it may be. Now I know, I am more fucked up then I thought, and at least I can deal with it. I hope you can and have as well. its so easy to hold on to the past, to wallow in our pain, but then, we're not even looking at the future or the now. It is hard to change, but I can honestly say that due to the many experiences that I have had, drug wise and relationship wise, I am a better person now then I was even yesterday. I bet you are too.
 
Really nice trip report :) I'm planning on experimenting with LSA a bit in the very near future and thats exactly the kind of thing I'm hoping for.
Enjoyed reading it :)
 
Now that I have done shrooms, there are many similarities in the trip... shrooms are however a lot more euphoric and visual, yet my thought processes were similar. Enjoy! The mesoamericans did after all worship the morning glory for this very reason... LSA.
 
Yea I have felt many similar things from LSA. So far, I would consider shrooms, LSA, and LSD all pretty similar. Shrooms are kinda more "discrete" I feel (vs. continuous), and I haven't really learned as much from them. But this could just be a subjective thing, of course.

Pot really accentuates the LSA, it seems. It might just be me, though. I am very succeptible to pot.

Without pot, all I could get from LSA was mostly a "hallucinogenic" body feeling, but not much going on in the head. Except maybe once where I was listening to Floyd's Atom Heart Mother Suite and entered into a trancelike state.

I should try LSA again and see what it does to me now.
 
All psychedelics are very unique for me. LSA is somewhat more unique than mushrooms and LSD in the fact that mushrooms and LSD are the "normal" or popular psychedelic drugs. I have had very awesome LSA trips. My first time with Morning Glory was a perfect first time, though I only got very mild visuals. I did trip very nice though. My second time with Morning Glory was incredible. The intensity was up there with around three hits of good LSD, though the visuals weren't as intense in the same way that LSD visuals are intense. I had awesome open eye visuals, but with LSA, the visuals were dark and more "real." They were more like visions than visuals. I smoked some high grade Cannabis with it that time. My next trip was awesome as well, but I was very in control, as it was a lower dose. After these Morning Glory experiments, I decided to try HBW seeds. I ate 8 of them the first time and the experience was slightly less intense than my second Morning Glory experience which was with 12g. The second time, I ate 12, which was too much. The trip broke apart and became very confusing. I got nothing out of it. These were very high quality HBW seeds, and I came to the conclusion that 8 or 9 seeds is the most I should ever do. I have had awesome times with LSA, though I think I won't be using it for a couple years.
