Later today at around 10 pm (mountain time) i shall be doing acid for the first time. Now my buddy does alot of acid and said that when he does it he usually does around 15 hits which is his limit. He has a new batch but said that it took only 4 to get him to his limit. so i was wondering if i should maybe cut the tab in half and try that first or if i should just drop the whole thing?
 
Just take the whole thing. IME, half-tabs only have an effect if they're taken in addition to at least a full tab.
 
Well i was thinking cut it in half and after an hour if im feeling good take the other half. ive never done it before so i really dont know what to expect. ive done shrooms and DMT if its anything like that?
 
As a rule we are not here to tell you what you should or should not do.

Now... 15 hits is his normal limit, I have no idea what that means. One possibility is that said LSD is very very weak, another possibility is that your friend is really hardheaded. It's impossible to tell from an internet board point of view.

One important question is: how much acid does your friend take? If it's a whole lot then he might have tolerance to consider which you do not have obviously. Furthermore I wonder why is your buddy not able to predict for you what a good dose to start with is? He should consider this batch and ask himself: without any tolerance, what would be a nice threshold dose to get some nice relaxed moderate effect but not too much?

Remember that you can take more another, second time but you can't take back what you have already imbibed! There is no hurry so take it easy and don't put too much pressure on it. Otherwise there is only something to live up to, it's not worth going too far too fast.

About what to expect, we got miles and miles of threads about that. :)

Mushrooms and DMT are good things to have under your belt before starting, but personally I'd say that LSD is less mind-foggy or dream-like and more transparent rational and clear-headed.

Starting with half, then taking the other half later is hardly ever a bad plan... but realize that you don't have much to go on in terms of how strong a hit is. It is not a measure of quantity unless it's analyzed. Perhaps half a hit is already far too much (sincerely doubting that in this story) or a whole hit is far too little. It's all possible. To check that you would need time to start low, then double the dose when you repeat the test and so forth. That's called titration.

So back to basics you need to use the best info you have, which is what kind of dose has what kind of effect on a person? Ideally this would be an LSD-naieve person but okay... if you know anything about the batch like: start which such and such, maybe take half of that to be more sure and see what happens.

Well i have another friend that tried it for the first time yesterday and said that he felt pretty fucked up off of the one hit. and hes been on a trip still for the last 14 hours so i dont know? hes still trippin pretty hard right now too so i dont know if i should take it all at first or not. How long does a trip usually last for?
 
See man the hits ur friend takes(15 at a time) must be real shitty ones then... See have one whole tab and enjoy... Bro I trip on blotters- Dala Lamas these days... I just have to eat one third of one blotter and I'm done fOr at least 8-10 hours... Listen mN tell ur friend not to have 15 hits at once... Tell him to have 2-3 hits and after an hour smoke one whole joint... It'll boom him more than 15 hits... I had 3 whole blots of dalai lama once and smoked 2 joints... I think I peaked till about 18 hours and eventually it got too much for my head to take so I slept... Got up and rolled uP some hash and I was back into a mild trip for 2 more days... Dude use less acid and some pot... POT+ LSD is the best psychedelic combO... Trust me... Try it :)
 
^ Doesn't sound incredibly coherent to me, anyway at least you got some more info from your friend. If 1 hit roughs him up, then I suggest you take a half hit. Don't listen to people who would evaluate you on how much acid you take... it's not worth going balls out on this cause it can be extremely overwhelming. Instead, if you take half, which may also even be more then enough... it can be something to really enjoy for your first time. :)

Start with half. Wait at least 90 minutes.
 
Re-dosing is a bad idea with LSD. It will tend to lengthen the trip without making it stronger, and you probably don't want an 18-hour marathon psychedelic experience. Take the whole tab. If you want more after an hour or two, take shrooms instead! Happy tripping!
 
Ive smoked weed while on shrooms and that fucked me right up. i could barely move. trying to walk was impossible cause i couldent walkin a straight line. What effects should i normally expect while on acid?
 
Acid tends to have a clearer headspace and is usually less emotional. There are lots and lots of threads in PD describing the similarities and differences between LSD and mushrooms.
 
I agree that re-dosing might not be what you want! It will indeed mostly add to the length than intensity.

But the conclusion to reach is not to take the whole hit, just to take half the hit and be satisfied.

Needing to take it all, the whole shebang, more more more.. that is for fools. :(

edit:

expect nothing and it will only be more magical ;) you are familiar with psychedelics so you know in what general area to search for presumption. :D make sure that you will be in safe environments for this.
And save the weed for another time, experience acid alone without any other drugs at least your first time. There will always be other occasions to try combinations, for your first trip I recommend that you relax and don't worry about if every tale you have been told or have been telling yourself will come true. In other words: fuck expectations, just run free RUN FREE

Eh well for some other people it is, but not me. In the more than 100 or 200 times I have done it only a few times were like that emotional mindfuck, but mostly thats what shrooms do. For me, acid is much more pure. You should be relieved. At least relaxed.
 
Thats good to know. Cause shrooms tend to be a little overwhelming sometimes due to that whole mindfuck component. So ill prolly just drop the whole tab.
 
I don't think taking only half a hit is a good idea. I think that 2-4 hits of good acid is the perfect dose, and that 1 hit would be good for a first time light trip. Its not like anyone is suggesting he take 15, like his friend does.

Its not a bad idea to take it without cannabis (or shrooms) the first time. I think that LSD is perfect for combinations, but Solipsis is right, there is plenty of time for that.

Why?

Apparently he has a friend who got pretty fucked up on 1 hit, does that tell you to take 2 of 4? What ill logic is that?

I've combined LSD successfully after I 'got to know it well' yes, but that is indeed not until later...

People who are as adventurous as I was a few years ago, please... it is easy to see what there is to gain but not
what might go wrong. I don't mean to make it very theatrical but trust me it doesn't pay off to go on in that much of a hurry.

He said his friend was happy with four, not one.

"He has a new batch but said that it took only 4 to get him to his limit"-OP

I said that my opinion is that 2-4 is generally a good dose, but that he should take only one to start.

"1 hit would be good for a first time light trip"- Me

What is the point of taking half a hit? He'd be lucky to get a decent body high off that. I'm not a hard-head. I tend to encourage low doses and moderation, but I don't see the point is splitting tabs at all.

see bro first thing i dont understand is that how do people do shrooms and LSD without smoking cannabis?
My trip starts because of weed... I've done shrooms once and LSD many times(potent blotters) and you know after the trip hits me i automatically crave for weed. since i've starting eating these Dalai Lama Blotters its totallly changed me. I don't smoke weed anymore. I only smoke up when im on LSD.
How is an LSD without weed? Cus once i tried it and i thought i was trapped in the deepest corners of my brain. It got me lost and there wern't many visuals.
That was after 5 hours of having one dalai lama. i didnt know dalai lama was very potent and i had 2 more and then i smoked 2 joints... I really got fucked up cus i consumed over 900 Micrograms of lsd. Dalai lama is so potent that you can easily trip for 10-12 hours on a quarter of it, provided you toke some green...
