LSA plateaus/levels?

[jake20589]

It seems nobody describes the effect of LSA as plateaus. I'm wondering if higher doses can illicit a more potent effect, or if it just intensifies the experience.
Having had a successful experience with ~100 morning glory seeds, I'm interested in a more extraplanetary experience than the simple mindset-shift of 100 seeds.

With 5-HT mediated psychedelics we use the Shulgin Rating Scale.

DXM (pretty much the only chemical we use this for) is described as having plateaux because at certain dosages the the effects take on a character not of an intensified version of what has come previous in some linear increase, but of a unique and easily distinguishable character. This has to do with and a differing ratio of DXM:DXO present in the body, and changed receptor preferences based upon this.

More generally, certain chemicals would be described as providing a breakthrough experience, and those might be put as levels. DMT, dissociative holes, salvia, etc. LSA is not one of them.

Thanks, that answers my question perfectly.

The other thing about DXM plateaus is that, in my experience anyway, you literally pass each plateau of effect. So on a graph, the effects build, then level out, then build, then level out, etc. You enter Plateau 1, then at some point switch to the quite different Plateau 2, then switch to the very different effects of Plateau 3. It's like going through several distinctly different dissociative trips in one experience. Exactly how many you experience depends on the dose you took.
