hello fellow shroomers:) im getting some shiva blotter this weekend,im going to be home alone until my mom gets home and im planing to trip i have taken some very strong avenger blotter before and alice in wonderlands too. this will be my first solo trip and im worried about a bad trip and/or my mom coming home early. is there anything i could do to prevent a bad trip because there will b noone with me and i will not have access to my phone to call a freind if something does happen . i will have access to internet xbox guitar ect.. can someone please help me out here - spaceraider :?
 
If there's a chance of your mom coming home while you're all spaced out and dime eyed I wouldn't do it.
Otherwise with previous LSD experience it should be pretty straight forward.
Movies, video games, chill music, make some art, some interesting thoughts to ponder are all fantastic ways to pass time on LSD.
If you have psychedelic experience a solo trip shouldn't be too difficult as long as you don't get too blasted
 
I would only do it if it's completely normal for you to sometimes be holed up in your room all night. If your parents regularly interact with you then i'd say wait for a better day, because they'll probably know somethings up if you are not overly experienced at hiding it.

As far as having a bad trip goes just remember this, there is no such thing as a bad trip only bad settings and state of minds. There is this common misconception that the psychedelic drug can and will randomly turn against you, but I'm telling you with LSD you have complete control over the situation. 90% of the time a "bad trip" is caused by the anxiety from worrying about having one. Have your favorite album in the world ready to go on either your laptop or ipod. You want what will ever put you in the best mood. For me it's Yoshimi by Flaming Lips. If I ever feel myself to get intimidated by the trip, I just lie down listen to that album and it cures it 100% of the time.
 
shes seen me on lucy before after 2 tabs and didnt notice she knows i smoke weed to. my past trips have all been with friends outside my areas kinda rough tho so walkin around fryin wouldnt b the best idea...is there anything on netflix worth watching and if a bad trip was to happen what would be the best thing to do? thanks for the help :)
 
they might put their head in the door just to check if im asleep or whatever but thats about it...does weed go well with it?
how would i hide it? thanks
 
why are you whispering :)

I always think riding a bad trip out is the best strategy, if that happens, don't be afraid, try to embrace it. Usually a bad trip happens because it's a challenge being presented to you that you can learn from. If you can't handle it at all, benzos are supposed to be helpful, but that always seems a waste to me, and I've never bothered. If a trip is a bit too much, an alchoholic drink can take the edge off and help you de-focus and relax, just like a single beer or something, but it also dulls the experience.
 
NO, weed intensifies acid, and can make a trip go deeper. I would not recommend trying to use weed to bring a trip down, because it will do the opposite, and if you're having a bad trip, will likely increase paranoid thoughts etc.
It's better to stay away from booze anyways.

Are you pretty young? If you're a teenager, don't forget your brain is still very plastic and developing quickly. We really don't know how LSD affects a developing brain, and it's usually considered to be not worth taking the risk on. It sounds like you might be a little bit young to be tripping on acid, but if you choose to anyways, it would be a good idea to keep it pretty low-key and irregular until you're a bit older. Have fun, but pace yourself, LSD isn't going anywhere and you have many decades ahead of you to enjoy it!
 
im 19 its more the fact i know il be alone you know? i always tripped with people that i knew could calm me down if needed
 
So 3 tabs and x was your difficult trip? You've probably had enough trips to have a rough idea how you respond to acid. First and foremost, trust your gut feelings on this. Your proposed set and setting sounds awkward, and I wouldn't recommend it, but if you do decide to go ahead with it, just keep your dose real low, and you'll probably not need calming down.
 
Tripping by yourself can be amazing, it's a fresh of breath air to not have to worry about your buddie's trip and just focus on yourself. As far as things to do here are my reccomendations. During your peak I would watch Baraka. It's easy to find just google Baraka HD. While watching put some headphones on and have your favorite music playing. Porcupine Tree, Flaming Lips, and Tool will give you an intense experience. I did that movie with Tool and loved it. It will teach you a lot about people, a sense of how we are all connected will fall on you in such a unique way. Besides that you can entertain yourself with this list of websites http://www.reddit.com/r/LSD/comments/15llo3/here_is_a_list_of_websites_i_like_to_visit_on_lsd/ Make sure to check out silk weave on that list and play with that while listening to your own music. As far as weed smoking goes don't do it until the second half of the trip I'd say. Weed kind of infuses with your trip and in my experience if smoked too soon will lessen the effects but if smoked in the second half can be like little booster hits to your trip. If you get bored try looking at some hardcore porn while listening to your own favorite background music for some interesting effects... Above all else though I highly suggest Baraka. It might be boring at first so I'd wait to start it until your trip is good and going. You will not be dissapointed.
 
dont just take LSD because you are bored, try and take something away from it (even if it is only the lesson that you shouldnt just take it because you are bored). It is a lot more enjoyable when there are other people to bounce thoughts off of and see different interpretations of things.
 
If you're worried about your mom coming home early you probably won't have a good trip.

This. I remember being about OP's age, made up some excuse about school/college being closed for the day and getting a very angry phone call after just coming up on the stuff as she'd driven past the bloody place and saw that it was most assuredly, not closed. This was probably my first real experience with acid too, as the previous blotter was utter shite.
Luckily I convinced her I was heading into college/school and figured I'd just stay at home and hope she'd be stuck at work, however despite the fact that there was a very high chance she would not return to check if I was still at home every minute I spent in that house was complete and utter hell. After about twenty minutes (which felt like hours) and a few shots of rum (didn't help much) I decided to leave the house and chill out at a friends, or if he wasn't home, go for a movie or something where I'd be out of that house (and in my mind at the time, safe).
Within the first few minutes of leaving the house all the worry, tension and bad vibes went away, I sat at a bus stop for about twenty minutes admiring how awesome the horrible pissing rain was. In the end everything worked out, all was well, but if I'd stayed in that house I'd have gone insane.

Where you trip and how safe you feel in that area when tripping has a huge influence on how your trip will turn out. There are no bad trips, only difficult trips and every trip, every journey will come to an end, just like climbing a mountain or running a marathon, getting to the end of a difficult trip will probably leave you with a more rewarding insight, though if you're not used to running marathons, or climbing mountains, you should probably start small. Get to know the acid and let it get to know you, the anxiety (which will mount to dread and terror) of your parents catching you tripping (I'm assuming you think they'd be pissed off, though they may just be supportive if they know what's going on and aren't members of the anti-drug cartel) will stop you from getting any satisfaction from the trip at all. If you can leave the house when they come home, you could do that, but if it's putting you off so much that you're asking on here I'd suggest you trip elsewhere entirely, or trip another day.

If you're looking for a magical trip-aborting substance, well there isn't one that will remove your trip and leave your sober and clear headed as you were before dropping acid. If you want to soften a harsh trip, benzodiazepines are usually the way to go. If you are stuck in a trip that is so horrible you'd rather it just go away and never come back, I'd recommend taking GHB/GBL, though only after practicing first. GHB/GBL can induce a very deep, coma like sleep if you get the dosage right and it has a wider therapeutic index (difference between effective and potentially lethal dosages) than similar drugs (barbiturates, propofol, etc) this sleep lasts for about four hours and for the first two nothing and nobody will be able to wake you, GHB/GBL knockout doses are still very dangerous and I'll probably get shouted at for even suggesting them, but they are probably the most effective and least deadly way to completely end (you'll still have crazy dreams) a trip.

If a trip is going bad, follow this formula

1) Do I feel safe where I am? If not, would I feel safer moving elsewhere? If moving elsewhere is even more daunting, is there anything you can do where you are to make things feel safer and more familiar. If you like playing guitar, start playing it, if you like playing computer games do that ('polynomial - space of music' is an amazing trip game).
2) If there is nothing you can do to get rid of the anxiety; take a benzo, booze works too, though causes much more nausea. I'd say opiates take the edge off too, but opiates are dangerous, addictive and probably harder to find for you than benzos are. The therapeutic index for benzos is much wider than that for opiates and if you're having a horrible trip you tend to grab as many pills as you can and shove them down your throat, with benzos this will probably just knock you out like GB, with opiates, depending on what opiate and which strength this could knock you into a (very) early grave.
2.5/3) If the benzos aren't working you can't really take GB as the potency of both drugs would be multiplied to an amount that it could be very easily lethal, 4mg diazepam along with a low dose of GB knocked me clean out. You really need to make the decision on whether you want to dull, or abort your trip at step two and either go for the benzos/gb/opiates (listed in order of safety, safest first) and pick only one if you are inexperienced with them even if you do have prior or even significant experience with either of those three I'd still suggest you stick with one, I've nearly died at least once because of a benzo+opiate cocktail and again from taking way too much GB, each time I was highly experienced with what I was doing, but reckless; tripping and anxiety heightens recklessness, do the math.
4) This is only reserved for the worst of trips and it probably won't be you who gets you dragged off to the hospital, I've only ever seen it happen once and it was when a friend of a friend took like 2 tabs of blotter, then 14 more, terrorized his neighbourhood and had to be driven to hospital by his parents. You never want to reach step 4.

Sorry if I'm rambling a little, I've never been good at getting writing to come together all in one go, expect to see many edits.

PS: You might want to read up on Tim Leary's system of set & setting. Personally I'd spend a day preparing for trips that I have on my own, when tripping with others it's usually more spontaneous.
