LSD & Kratom - Dosages/Interactions

[ErgicMergic]

I will be dropping 1.5-2.5 hits of some average quality LSD tomorrow while alone in a comfortable home. My first trip was a half hit with friends and it was underwhelming, but still really fun. This time I would like a full-blown acid trip, however. I am mildly physically dependent on Kratom (3.7g super grade leaf 4-5 times a week), and stopping gives me minor mental w/d symptoms (lethargy, mild depression, minor anxiety, etc.) for a couple of days.

I didn't take Kratom today to lower my tolerance for tomorrow, but I wouldn't take it while tripping if I didn't have to. Now, by tomorrow, it will be the "peak" of my minor WD. Should I:

1. High dose Kratom before LSD to give it the synergy Xorkoth speaks of in his erowid reports?
2. Low (maintenance) dose Kratom before L to get the minor WD symptoms out of the way for an uninterrupted trip?
3. High dose Kratom after the peak for general awesomeness (synergy).
4. Low dose Kratom on the comeup?


Also, I took 100mg tramadol Monday morning, which will give it at least 3 full days in-between the trip. Will my serotonin be too depleted and take away from the trip? I eat a great diet with plenty of protein (L-Tryptophan), so my serotonin is getting the building blocks it needs.

P.S.- If anyone has any ideas on what to do or not to do alone, chime in! I'm thinking about making sensory deprivation goggles out of safety goggles + foil to get complete darkness at certain points. Also, I might go out and buy some incense. I have a pool, so I'm definitely swimming. Sitting outside, music inside, etc. etc.

Thanks a bunch!

For you first true trip, it should be as unadulterated as possible in my opinion. If you're fearing some withdrawal issues then I would take some kratom as soon as you wake up and dose your LSD once the effect is gone.

Also, the tramadol you took should pose no problem.

Enjoy!

Low dose kratom before you trip to stave off withdrawals and then low dose after peak. If you find it synergizing well with the Lucy, then take more. I take kratom at a dose of two teaspoons a couple of times per week before the gym and I dose Lucy quite frequently but oddly enough I've never used them together. Hope you have a good time.

Can't really speak on the Kratom as I've never done it, but careful with the swimming. Drowning is a possibility, especially alone. If you're REALLY set on swimming, do it AFTER the peak. You don't want to suddenly peak really fucking hard while you're in deep water. If the universe is shattering around you the last thing you'll want to worry about is whether or not you can still tread water.
And actually, I agree with sticking it low dose kratom to avoid WDs and enjoying a more pure LSD experience. You have plenty of time to experiment with combos later.
