Well I figured I'd do a little write up on my first turn tripping on acid. This was NYE, and me and a few mates had gone out into the bush to this little underground doof. We hadn't taken any drugs up there ourself, but ran into a guy with a vial of liquid acid. So at about 10pm new years night we got a drop off each off him.

We spent the next little while on the dancefloor, and though I wasn't seeing any visuals as yet I started to feel a little "disconnected". After awhile I suggested to the mate who took the other drop we go for a wander out in the bush away from the dance floor. As we started to head out I began to notice the hallucinations. A lot of the trees/stumps we passed would morph into some sort of skeletal/humanoid form, and bushes etc would look like small creatures. Eventually we reached a clearing in the woods, with what I found out later was a huge fallen tree which had landed inside the dried out river bed, but at the time it looked like some form of alien spacecraft. We got into the river bed and explored further upstream, at one point I passed a log which seemed to have a large dragon on it regarding me intently. After awhile my mate called out "dude, this ground isn't really ground anymore", I looked down and the leaves and objects at my feet had turned into a swirling mass of snakes, and it seemed to lose all sense of "hardness", instead being soft and malleable.

Eventually we made it back to the dancefloor, and for a time I was lost in the music. Eventually I had to get away from the noise and lights however, and ventured back into the forest on my own. Suddenly I began to see people everywhere, people would be sitting down on the bush floor as I walked past, holding up their cans to me. I'd look further out into the forest and see 100 of skeletal creatures rising up from the ground and stumbling towards me. Son, all the bushes and thickets growing out of the ground turned into bony arms and hands, reaching out for me. I freaked out and turned to run back to my campsite, I kind of lost track of how I came in and could feel the "arms" grabbing at me as I forced my way back through trees/bush.

Eventually I reached my camp, and sat on the car bonnet looking out in the forest. I could still see figures everywhere, walking through the trees, but I seemed to be in a "safe zone" in my camp. However, I started seeing things in the corner of my eyes, and turning around and nothing was there. I concentrated on staring forward, and saw out of the corner of my eyes my mate walk up and sit next to me and start talking, but no sound was coming out, and when i looked properly he of course wasn't there. At one point I looked back at the dancefloor, which had a huge tree at the back of it, and the tree had morphed into a giant tentacle like monster. I lay back on the bonnet and looked up at the stars, suddenly I reaslied it was raining, though I didn't know for how long because I couldn't feel anything. Whilst lying on the bonnet I seemed to be transported inside a club, the rain droplets falling on my head turned into lasers and "smoke" as if from a machine appeared and surrounded me whilst the intense beats on the stage (was playing crazy dark psytrance at the time) reverberated through me. I decided to go and hit the dancefloor again, and I had a very hard time seperating the real people from the imaginary ones. I had to weave quite a path through the camping sites/dance floor so as not to step on someone who may or may not exist (most of them didn't, but better safe then sorry). I tried to dance a bit, but felt myself entranced by the dancefloor, which shifted and fluctuated under the weight of people dancing. At one point it seemed to suck down one of my friends whilst he performed a particuarly vigorous "crouch then hop up" dance move.

Anyway, eventually a full on downpour, plus thunder and lightning started (keeping in mind this is in the middle of summer in australia), and we had to retreat into the tent. I found it hard to sit still, and the sound of the water dripping on the undergrowth outside sounded like creatures running around the tent. I began to see the face of that little girl from the game "fear" through the walls of the tent, and surrounding it. We stayed like that for a few hours, then eventually piled into my mates car while he ran the heater and eventually the trip calmed down, it had lasted about 8 hours in total.

Other random facts about that night: Police AND fire brigade turned up at seperate times (keep in mind this was a party with about 30 people, in a national park like 6 kms from any sealed roads), which was quite worrying at the time.

I didn't go over all the visuals I saw (after the cops turned up I kept seeing those olde timey british police inspectors standing near me and wagging their batons at me), but the trip was very intense visual wise. However, though I felt a small semblance of " disconnection", I was actually fairly lucid during all of it. It should be noted as well, that I was in a pretty bad "headspace" at this time, because I was having some real problems with my girlfriend, who had gone away for new years whilst hinting a break-up was imminent (when she got back she ignored me entirely, and didn't respond to the single text i sent "so i assume it's over?", but that's another rant entirely). Maybe this mood had something to do with why the trip was so evil/dark. However, at the same time, I wouldn't call it a "bad" trip. It was quite an experience, and I definately want to try it again. Now to find more of this liquid acid, ha. Sorry if this was too long or crap or something, but I felt like writing it all down.
 
you have got balls for tripping out in some unfamiliar bush late at night, and that would be for a seasoned tripper as well :)

if you have read anything about acid two words are commonly repeated

setting and headspace

make these as positive as you can

have fun !
 
What an interesting report, you described the visual aspect really well. Props to you for not freaking out about the snake illusion or the appearance of the police.

I have not yet had the opportunity to try acid, the timing has never been right. I wasn't ready for it at the time in my life when it was easy to come by and now of course it is much harder to find.

Oh, and sorry about your lady friend acting shady. It's not right for her to just ignore you like that even if there's a problem so I hope that situation works out for the best.

This is something I get quite regularly. In particular, when sat down, I often experience the feeling (with associated visual disturbance) of something reaching over or around me. It's difficult to describe the exact form that that these disturbances take - sometimes it's nothing more than thin strips of colour, other times there's a definite shape. What is consistent is the fact that the experience is also accompanied by a degree of colour 'bleeding' - where the visual disturbance is influenced by colours or events that have preceded it.

I guess that the peripheral vision is the part of your vision that is most open to interpretation. Nice report.
 
man this reminds of the first time i did mushrooms at a doof. some insane visuals and some crazy shit ended up happening. good report tho.
 
Funny you mention seeing cops. My first candyflip at a rave a cute girl had on a cop's hat and shirt. I kept looking at her in terror. Finally she said to me: "I'm NOT a cop!" but I just starred at her horrified and didn't say a word.
 
good report! it actually had me laughin my ass off in my chair because i felt like i was there. I have seen those same funny feelings and man is it fun when you are in a good situation. Some Girls always fuck up good trips. thats why when tripping you do not want to be with your girl becuase you are gonna get way too deep if you talk to much~ ! LOL
Believe me!
 
I'm not so sure it's girls, but people in general that you're not fully comfortable with. If you've got a girlfriend or wife or someone who is more than just your romantic interest but actually your good or best friend, that doesn't happen. Likewise, if you're tripping with some guy friends who are uncomfortable with tripping, you'll catch that vibe and it can ruin your experience.

I do have to say, though, that if you take a random sampling of people, especially young people, and expose them to psychedelics, more girls will be uncomfortable or freak out or give strange vibes to the trippers than guys. That's just what I've observed, and I think it's because in western society these days, females are made to feel so much more insecure with themselves than males, and pre-adult females are often not yet established enough as independent human beings to get past that.

i dont understand. i tripped on acid my first time last saturday and the only thing i wish is that i had a girl with me. some of the girls/women i saw seemed so beautiful that i couldnt even saw anything, i was simply in awe. i couldnt imagine what cuddling with a girl would be like on acid.

this actually inspired me to write a trip report. thanks!

Yeah, I love LSD & Sex. I used to go on vigorous hikes, like 24 miles round trip, tripping. One one steep trail where I'm breathing real heavy, there's a quiet spring with sand where I always imagined having hard sex breathing like that crying in pain. I used to take lsd on those hikes but never had a hiking partner 'cause all my friends were too weak. (Used to leave befor sunrise Saturday morning and drop the acid as I was leaving home, wouldn't get back 'till after sunset and I didn't eat anything the whole day or night (24 hour fast). Those were the daze!

Their's another HOT outdoor place that makes me feel the same way, at Black's Beach (San Diego). I had sex there a couple of times but never on acid. It's a steep canyon leading to the ocean under a tree you can see the blue sky, it's cool and quiet. Once when I went there and the Moment was right, there was a creep hiding out wanting to watch. The guy I was with didn't care but I was afraid so I ended up only giving him a BJ.

Another LSD-XTC fantasy I have is taking it at a sex club and getting banged by everyone there. These fantisies are sjust ome of the crazy fantisies I have. Fantasy is better than the reality of this shitty world and television except some of the "reality" shows but those only show more of the pathology of it all.
 
Great report On the run............I wasnt able to get anything from my first attempt but its definitely something I still want to do..........problem is finding the damn stuff.

I have a question for you..........when u see the visuals are you still sort of aware that this is just the effects of the drug and hence its not really anything to worry about or does your mind forget that?

I have had some very intense visuals on mda but never been worried by them at all and in fact found them rather captivating if that makes sense.

You'll be prepared for LSD visiuals if you ate shrooms before. Visiuals and auditory distortions on my first (or second) LSD trip (powerful stuff) scared me into thinking I was losing my mind and I'd never be sane again, that if I wasn't vigilant, I'd go over the edge and never come back to this world. Now I groove on being out of this world preferably with someone who is tripping too and is into getting sweaty, naked.
