1. Never trip alone but with friends
2. Start off with small doses
3. Only trip in pleasant, comfortable places where parents, policemen etc. are absent
4. Only trip if you feel OK
5. Always remember that you are under the influence of a drug and you will feel normal again in a few hours
6. Giving a psychedelic to someone without their knowledge or consent is an incredibly dangerous thing to do as well as being morally wrong
7. If you run into problems try changing the topic of conversation, music or whatever you are doing
8. If you are careful you should run into few problems and you will enjoy the overall trip.
9. Occasionally a few days or even weeks after a trip slight memories of the effects surface, but this is fairly rare. These 'flashbacks' are a split second long, a kind of intensified 'deja vue', perhaps accompanied by some of the same feelings as on the trip.
10. Have Fun!

Just some general guidelines.

i agree with most of these...
however rather than starting off with small doses.
know your limits. when you're new to the drug, start off with one. and when you're ready, next time you trip, if you can handle it. then increase your dosage.

another piece of advise. while it was a bit of fun. it was a complete headfuck mixing ice and lsd together. had 3 and a half sugar cubes over the space of a night, which were triple dropped... and i had 6 points of shard aswell.
it was fun at first. but when you cant sleep and youre still tripping a little bit on the second and third days. it can be a little uncomfortable.

generally i find with lsd you have a limited attention span, and if anythings getting to you, stand up. walk away. sit somewhere else. it'll generally help.
also i find being cold is a good way to relax. for some reason when things get overwhelming i'll start sweating and feeling a bit shaky and uncomfortable. if i sit in front of a fan. pardon the pun. but i chill out lol.

also try to avoid commiting to purchasing more drugs while under the influence. sure its a great idea at the time to line up half a vial for the next day.. you make the arrangements, its set in stone. 3 hours later the acid and the md caps are beginning to wear off. and then you start thinking and realise that will leave you with less than $200 left to get you through until next pay day.
done that like twice now. kinda puts a downer on the trip lol. and its hard to get out of that headspace.

 

[On the run]

haha i work at the gardens during the summer, an can always tell the trippers who come there. usually a group of a few 20-somethin dudes either wandering around or sitting on the lawn, laughing for extended periods of time at nothing at all then every so often throwing paranoid glances at us

Hahahahaha, see ya in summer then.

 

[perthboy]

yeah i must admit we looked really suss being a big group walking around giggling and looking at the same thing for ages.

I know my limits, I usually go for 2 tabs because I know its a dose I can handle quite easily, even when I'm out in a crowd of people. Someday I may dose 4 or more, but only when I know I'm ready for it

One thing that I usually do if I feel overwhelmed is watch something funny on TV, even if I have a limited attention span, getting my mind off the trip and having a few laughs is pretty helpful.

So far I've told 2 of my friends to stay away from acid because they obviously can't handle it. One of them dosed 3 tabs like I did and ended up going to hospital because we couldn't control him. I couldn't really describe what he was doing, but the police and medics that came over to help out thought he was on ice, and didn't believe us for ages that he was just on acid.

Another thing I seem to loop lately when I'm on acid...like I forget what I am doing and I end up repeating myself when talking to friends. Is this something common that happens to people or is it a sign acid isn't my drug? :S

 

[Jakeperson]

Happens all the time.
It's just confusion.

I quite often think I have told my friends things I haven't.

It would be nice at they very least if our medical and law enforcement teams were educated on drugs.

 

[perthboy]

Oh ok.
Yeah sometimes it seems like I stop talking, but in my mind I finish off the rest of the sentence, leads to lots of confused looks lol.
And yeah, they thought by tab we meant a pill, and I can't remember the llast time I saw people taking acid pills

 

[puckboy]

Those thought loops can get so fucking intense, especially when weed is involved. To me it feels like im having a series of thoughts which my memory will then erase then all of a sudden it comes back to me and can be quite a shock. Hard to describe, very trippy.

 

[js2k6]

so i've come to a decision.
gonna go to a metal club with a couple of friends.

i reckon it'll take all of 15 minutes before the shit music starts doing my head in. lol.
but we learn more from the unpleasant trips than we do from the cruisy ones.

worst comes to worst. i could always leave and head to the city and go get some hardstyle into me... and wash the gayness of metal out of my eardrums.
dosing up on lots of good stuff.. like classic pharmacy albums..

lck - bring it is cranking now,
i'll get into the psytrance in just a minute.. drink a bit then head for this horrible place.

It's a common effect of psychedelics. I quite like the looping sometimes actually, I've got a few good memories of them including once when I and the guys I play music with were tripping and we got stuck into a loop of playing 'Comfortably Numb' then 'Wish You Were Here' then going outside for a cigarette then coming back and playing them again, then having a cigarette, then playing again... ad nauseum. After about five loops we realized what was happening and broke out of it.

Nitrous oxide on a head full of acid will also send you into some major loops.

Nangs + acid = WTF just happened?

 

[perthboy]

yeah I hit the nangs once then went into a room with a fan on.
laying down on the bed and drifting to sleep the sound of the fan kinda induced a nang sensation through my body.
quite fun

 

[filenet]

i will never forget the time back in early youth when the universe sang in unison for the first time!

1 x LSD gel tab
1 x nang hit
1 x 'are you experienced' by no other than Jimi himself

the resonance emitted by all surrounding matter came together as one for a brief moment....it was then I had the answer!

i have been chasing it ever since...

One of my favourite places to trip

Paranoid glances abound!

 

[nanobrain]

Is liquid a very common thing at Doofs?

ROTFTMAO. um....no. in fact i can prove liquid does not exist in the wild - lest otherwise it would melt the bepuddled thus making it impossible to report of its very existance.

lies, lies i tell you, multiday outdoor psychedelic trance parties have nothing to do with psychedelics. nothing. and Mop Bears dont exist either.

So true, last time me and a few friends dropped some acid we had the same song playing over and over on repeat for about 5 hours... just put us in a good place

 

[js2k6]

seriously.. metal club + 7 hits of lsd...

what a horrible ordeal. it was like an abortion... except i was pointing and laughing. realising just how much better i am at life than these... "people".

in amongst how shit the club was, it's pisspoor attempts at laserlighting (i have better stuff in my loungeroom), and oh my god... imagine if you can.
standing there. just as the confusion hits... hearing some god awful song by trivium... with a vocal rendition not too dissimilar from a household pet being torn apart limb from limb.

and laughing with your mates about how generally terrible this music is. to look over and see some guy coverup in makeup moshing ever so seriously.. like its the greatest thing he's ever heard..
there are some things the human mind was not meant to experience...

so i spent 40 minutes or so there... before my mind recoiled in sheer disgust.
i gained an appreciation for life. or my life i should say. lol.
then headed home. and the trip got good from there

other people are just fucked. and they say i'm off my dial.

two words...

sums up quite a few nights spent in my loungeroom
