Hey guys. This happened about 4 months ago so it isn't fresh in my head but it's definitely an experience I can never forget. This was about my 6th trip total and have done it two more times after this one, but this by far was the most intense psychedelic experience I ever had.


During the summer, I was kind of bored and just felt like taking some acid. I called my dealer and picked up just two tabs, wanting nothing but a light trip. He told me these were very good tabs. I've never seen purple tabs before either...probably just a gimmick, or so i thought.


It was about 1:00AM when I put the tabs in my mouth. My sister was sleeping in the room next to me and my mom was sleeping downstairs. I was watching Fear and Loathing while waiting for the come up. In about twenty minutes I looked at my bed next to me and it looked unusually large. Everything around me felt so much bigger. It kicked in a lot faster than all the other times. I continued to watch Fear and Loathing but at point I couldn’t concentrate at all. The monitor started to look wavy, the usual “melting” visuals you get on LSD. My flat laptop keyboard started to look round. I closed the movie, turned on the lights and lied down on my bed.


I was just looking up at the ceiling watching it melt and forming colors while I listened to rock. The guitar solos were so crisp clear and I definitely was feeling the music. I wasn’t sure if my speakers were too loud or not, I wanted to bump up the volume but my family was sleeping. I turned it down…but it was too quiet now. Turned it back up, was this louder than before? Turned it back down. Turned it up again. I was fidgeting with this for what seemed like a very long time but it probably was just a few seconds.


I got off my computer chair again and had a pretty hard time walking straight. I just stood there for a second, my body started leaning forward, then backwards. I felt as if I were a midget and the ground seemed very close to me. I thought it was funny so started laughing out loud to myself. I just jumped on my bed and started rolling around. I felt kind of uneasy but so comfortable at the same time. My hands looked really fat like they were swollen. I just stayed in my bed for a really long time, listening to music, thinking about the randomest things, nothing unusual from my other trips but the acid was kicking in harder and harder.


It’s around 3:30AM now and effects I never felt before start kicking in. I would get paranoid and get worried that my mom or sister would walk in but I would quickly forgot about it because I wasn’t able to focus at all. Usually it wouldn’t be as easy to get my mind off of something that’s bothering me but this time I was so high that I couldn’t keep a train of thought. I looked at the clock, and the second hand would change its speed. It moved slowly and all of a sudden sped up and slowed down again. I never had such visual distortions. At times I would see a whole bunch of colors pass by, like a camera that recorded the sky from sunrise to sunset and was playing on fast forward with a whole spectrum of colors. I thought the sun came up sometimes because the shades of colors were so bright. I was in awe. It was just so beautiful.


I started to get thirsty. I swear I brought a 2 liter bottle of water when I was sober to have it with me during the trip but I couldn’t find it. I looked all over my room. After looking around I just lied down in my bed again, and there it was. In between the wall and my bed. Now the feeling of irony and weirdness was filling in my head. WTF it was here the whole time??? People are like squirrels. They hide their nuts all over the place and end up losing a lot of them. I must’ve instinctively thought the water bottle was going to be important thus I hid it in a place so well that I had a hard time finding it. As silly as that sounds, at the moment I was so convinced that it was just a biological thing that had been programmed in me. I probably just threw it on my bed and it ended up rolling to the wall.


So I continued to enjoy my trip. I saw tiedye patterns with every single color matching the song that was playing. I felt so euphoric. Felt like I was on MDMA. I wanted to share my love to everyone and be loved in return. I felt “one” with everyone for the first time. I was convinced that the band I was listening to had done LSD as well. They had to. Their songs were perfect for my trip. (Later, when I was sober I realized they didn’t). At this time I really could’ve cared less if someone walked in my room. I wanted to explain to them what and how I was feeling right now. I wanted to share it to the world. It was okay because we are all one. All this hippie type of thoughts were flooding my head, when in reality, if my mom ever found out I was high, I would’ve been fucked. Luckily, no one ever walked in for the rest of my trip.


There was a helicopter outside just flying around looking for someone. I went to use the restroom. While I was taking care of my business I saw urine on the floor of my bathroom. Was I that fucked up that I couldn’t even aim for the toilet? I went over to get a towel, but looking at it again the floor was completely dry. Just another visual distortion. That happened to me about three times during the trip. Afterwards I just stared myself in the mirror, my face was constantly changing. I always enjoy looking in the mirror on acid. The fan in the bathroom seemed to get louder and louder. It felt as if the helicopter outside was right next to me. I got scared and got out asap and the music playing made me feel euphoric again.


So the rest of my trip was crazy thoughts, revelations, hippie thinking and stuff like that. There were personal aspects of the trip that I won’t get into.


The sun was coming up and I was starting to come down. The clouds in the sky were beautiful. Still looking swirly. Cars were on the streets now. Everyone woke up according to the sun and was on their own way to make money or take care of business. Only if people took a break to realize how insignificant they were compared to the rest of the world…only if I could somehow tell them that they shouldn’t worry too much but rather enjoy life. I bumped up The Beatles and it fit perfectly. I was starting to feel anxious now..that uneasy come down. At the same time, I felt so appreciative, and I felt like I was really born again. I will no longer look at the world the same.


I went downstairs to get a glass of water and saw my mom sleeping. My heart started to ache. Looking at how tired she was, trying to raise two kids on her own with no one to help. At the moment I almost wanted to cry. But I had to be strong. I had to be a better son.


Eventually I took some etizolam and alprazolam around 9:00AM for the comedown to ease the anxiety but I still had distortions. The trip lasted way longer than I expected, over 12 hours for sure. The afterglow felt amazing. I gave a homeless man a dollar and initiated a conversation with him.


I can tell you I’ve definitely learned a lot from the experience. I’ve become more mature and humble. More open minded and understanding. I didn’t completely change into a new person the day after, but to this day I feel as if that same experience is still teaching me things. I was really depressed for many months and was starting to feel better but this experience cleared up many aspects of my depression. (You shouldn’t take psychedelics when you are depressed). I didn’t expect this kind of trip at all, but I’m really glad that I had the trip. Words won’t do it justice.


Super long post, I know. Not the best trip report either (this is my first one). But I wanted to share this. Thanks for reading.
 
So you don't trip often but you drop 2 hit's straight off the bat when you do trip .... respect!

How many times have you fried?

Less is more when it comes to LSD ... I can't preach that though as for me it's 3-4 times a month .

But when you do it sparingly it is so, so much more meaningful/spiritual.

I'm slightly jealous.
 
haha thanks for reading guys. that was my 6th trip and I've tripped 2 times after that but in significantly lower doses (2 tabs but much weaker ones, that's the level of trip I was expecting with this one).

do you guys feel that tripping often effects your sober lives in anyway? positively or negatively?
 
Only in a positive manner. You should always have at least one enlightening moment while tripping. One LSD trip can be far more effective than 1,000 psychiatrist visits. After all, your sub-conscious knows you better than you know yourself. Even the bad trips can be huge learning experiences. The only people who aren't enlightened are the ones who go into it with the mentality of, "Dude! I'm about to eat a bunch of acid and trip myself retarded!"

You mentioned that you saw your mom asleep and thought of things through her perspective. That she's working hard to raise you and your sibling. That, in itself is one of the most important things in life. Putting yourself in the mindset of someone you love and seeing things from their point of view. That's a very positive aspect of yourself you want to expand on. Nice report, by the way.
