Well Saturday was my first time on acid, I'll call it the craziest night of my entire life. I'd really like to explain my story because I need to know if it's normal or not.


Lately I've been hanging out with my stoner friends, I'm an excessive weed user. I smoke 2 times a day, everyday. On Saturday, June 11th, I tried 2 hits of acid. This was apparently strong LSD, I have no idea if the stoner friend who gave it to me was just being ignorrant, but hey, the hell if I know... This is the story about my trip:


My Saturday began like any other day. I had just spent the night before blazing all my braincells out of my mind. I was remotely depressed because I had just gotten into another fight with my ex girlfriend who had no idea what I was planning to do this very night.

I leave to my friend Mike's house, who happens to be the biggest stoner in the school, probably smoking up to 8 times a day on his bong (which he named Carl after his friend who died). When I got there, him and his girlfriend (Devin) were there. We left to a beautiful hill with a tree in the middle and began dissolving our little slabs of paper. Unfortunately the taste was terrible, pretty much inky tasting with some chemicals on the side; Mike said it was worth it. An hour past and I was already zoning out, staring at the sky and my thoughts were starting to come in... 'will this EVER work on me?'.

Another hour passed and we headed back to Mike's house. We chilled in his basement and I began staring at his brick wall. The wall began to melt and shadows (where there shouldn't be shadows) would show up in the creveses of cement in between the bricks. I felt powerful, it was like being drunk without the dizziness and stupidity if that made any sense. Infact, I felt like the smartest man in the world. We did everything that night, my feelings that I experienced where 100,000 times what the normal feeling was. If I got scared watching The Village, I nearly broke my spin jumping. If I was happy, I would smile until my face hurt. If I was sad, I cried and wanted to kill myself. Hell, when my ex girlfriend called me, I left Mike's to go to her house and I was in a hydrofield, alone, when she said I wasn't allowed over. I hung up, sat down and began to cry out of pure loneliness. I wanted to literally kill myself. It wasn't until I ran into a few friends that took me to Mike's when I realized it was probably me having a bad trip... (I use the word trip loseley here, it probably isn't even the right word).

Is this a typical trip? Is it even a trip at all? Acid was nothing what I expected... I expected to see leperchauns flying around with rocket-booster feet...


... But it was the best night of my entire life.%)
 
I first did LSD at the age of 14. I was a little naive about its powerful effects and decided to do it by myself in my room, on a school night no less. I ended up experiencing complete ego death and it wasn't until years later that I finally came to understand during that life-changing night.

I don't think you got LSD either. real LSD blotters don't taste bad, it may have been a DOx blotter.
 
To answer your question, Yes. It sounds about average for a drug induced trip, regardless of what you took.

(DOx refers to a family of chemicals that are sometimes put on blotter paper and sold as acid. They last far longer than real acid (~24 hours) and take longer to come on (1-2 hours).

Really, tripping is nothing to worry about and it doesn't have any sort of long term damage effects that your ignorant friends might scare you with. Like you said, it makes emotions far stronger, and as a result, in the end it feels like a much more important experience than it really was.

I guess you're a tough guy since you can handle your psychedelics. Many people do infact have bad trips and experience mental anguish and difficulty. Underestimating the power of LSD is a very, very, grave mistake.

That's not excessive at all and by the way, it does not sound like you got acid...

I guess by excessive, I mean more casual I suppose. I'm high for about half the day everyday... People know me as EZ-Bake :(

Anyway, thanks for the reassurance... It's probably DOx then because your explanation matches exactly what we took. It did take about 2 hours to kick in. My friend said it'd last 24 hours though because of the fact I took 2 hits. No clue though, call me new to this :)
 
Willy, it does sound like you got one of the DOx chemicals- my guess would be DOC or DOI because you dont mention any of DOB's nasty side effects.

It seems like the trip left you with a negative result- When I have negative trips I find they are sort of a magnification of my overall take on my life at the current point. I think I have been in a situation similar to yours, when I was your age (i'm 20 now), and If you're interested in my advice, getting stoned every day takes a lot of your time and energy and really doesn't leave much in return. Of course, some people smoke a lot more than you are smoking, but some people fuck up their whole lives too. I smoked pretty much every day through highschool, and if I could go back in time I'd tell myself to do something productive instead, like mess around making webpages or music or even studying.

All my friends that smoked as much throughout highschool are dropping out of college now and working shitty jobs to support shitty apartments and shitty lifestyles. It doesn't happen to everyone, of course, but its taking a lot of work to keep it from happening to me. And maybe they are fighting the evil corporate system by not buying into the consumer lifestyle and sticking it to the man, stoned, from their couch in front of the TV.

You know, most my stoner friends think that about their lives... They're just going to dropout, personally I feel like university will be fun, I'll probably just get stoned then too. If I don't manage to get into one, I'll just form a band, I'm super into music and guitar... At the moment things don't look too well for me... I'm in grade 9 and my grades are okay I suppose.

My two cents: I don't want to work at McDonalds and end up spending all the money I get on marijuana. But at this point, I just want to enjoy my highschool years with my everyday bowl. I'll ask my friends if it was acid or this different type you're mentioning.
 
Is DOx dangerous? What would be considered a lethal dose? Could anyone point me into the direction of a website with some info on this stuff?
 
Erowid.org

DOx is a family of chemicals, the most popular of the group at this time are DOC DOB and DOI.

None of them are specifically harmful, but DOB is really potent and has many side effects, and some people have gotten really fried off too big a dose. Lethal doses aren't well established, but anything over 10mg of either compound is really pushing it too far- a definate path to psychosis.

There is no way to tell how much was on your tabs, but if it would take 2 tabs to trip for 24 hours, there was probably around one mg on each tab. Individual responses to these chemicals vary tremendously, and everyone has their own horror stories while other people handle insane dosages with little more than a disrupted sleep pattern.

If you're thinking of taking more, follow the drugs back to whoever put them on blotter, and get some straight answers to what you're really taking. and DON'T ask them if it was one drug in particular, because asshole dealers will immediately aggree with whatever you think it is. Make them tell you what they got before you go mentioning any chemical names yourself.

And if you value your safety at all, increase your dosage SLOWLY. If you handled two relatively well, DO NOT drop 10 the next time and think everything'll be fine. Work your way up slowly! good luck.

edit: nuke beat me to the punch
 
I rememebr working my way up to 40 hits in one night. What a ride. Never agin. Allthough i loved every moment of it.
 
Acid doesn't taste terrible does it? No taste or a slight metallic one is the one to search for, right ???
 
Lsd

D-lysergic acid diethylamide shouldnt taste like anything in the amounts you would have on blotter paper, your more likely to taste the paper than anything from LSD, this is even more true with geltabs or sugar cubes, liquid typically is mixed in with the breath drop crap so it sometimes tastes like that.

LSD typically is a stimulating trip without a lot of the common amphetamine side effects, and by that i dont mean no body load, just LSD feels quite different from amphetamine or methamphetamine as far as the stimulant effects.

Its disturbing that one can randomly buy blotter paper and find DOC or DOI on it, this kinda thing really pisses me off, not because you bought it or were able to get it but because someone decided it would be a good idea to distribute it like this.

As far as the qualities of the trip, regardless of what chemical induced it (gotta love that phrase), there are a lot of things you can do to have a positive trip, one of which is to not use other drugs beforehand, even pot CAN in fact enhance the psychotic symptoms of psychedelics, in fact a friend of mine had a serious reality replacing hallucination from pot itself (trust me it was just pot), and even though he probably made this more likely to happen because of other things he did, it was still pot that caused the reaction in him, yes thats incredibly rare i know. While pot is safe in most cases it does have the capacity to cause negative reactions.

Others to avoid would be alcohol or benzodiazepines, in some cases alcohol could have a beneficial effect (ive done it before by accident), however benzos in a lot of people can cause acute depression, something you dont want to happen on a psychedelic. In addition its not a good idea to take ANY antidepressant while planning a trip, especially SSRIs, even tricyclics and tetracyclics like amitryptiline are a bad idea, so if you or anyone reading this take those, seriously reconsider weather its a good idea to take psychedelics at the same time.

Now having said all the things i reccomend you NOT do, im somewhat hesitant to include things you should do because of your age, but ill just say this, theres a trip report i made on this forum, 5 years ago, about combining mushrooms with other things that should help quite a bit :)

There, i didnt tell anyone underage to take drugs :P

Hrmm... people cry all the time, are they all on acid?
Think about what you said... now think again... stupid, wasn't it?

You have no idea what he took, and neither do we.
While I agree it was probably a DOx compound by the sounds of things none of us can be sure.

It could have been acid... acid is the most varied drug I've ever taken, and trust me, I've taken a few. It's range of effects are incredibly broad, and if you can learn to control it then you can take it in whatever direction you fancy... :)

First off, don't call me stupid. Stupid!

Second, of all the drugs out there, acid seems to be a drug that brings a response where people cry for no appearant reason, etc. Do you hear a lot of trip reports of people taking K, rcs, etc and crying? No, didn't think so. I am talking about my expereince with friends who have cried numerious times while on acid. I was linking the two. Finally, since he thinks it was acid and acid is known to do, there was a relationship. Maybe you should think before you write.
