Lsd&learning Procedure

[LucidShroomDmtier]

have you experimented :trying to learn something while under the influence of lsd ...

Am a student and i am researching Lsd possibilities of being a "genius drug" at moderate doses 1 tab(70-100)

My experiment: (mathematic-physics problems)

siting and trying to maintain focus (lsd distortion is somewhat aint helping maintain focus)

read the theory(conect it to the problem)

read the problem(here i find my self difficullty understanding essential simply stuff )

looking for solution(here mind recuires a leash cause mind wonders around many topics and forgets the problem (focus problem))

the problem still gets solved( after some pain)

first conclusion : lsd aint helping learning proccedure with the above material

but there are some variebles i didnt included in my experiment : whether i do or not like the subject (phys-maths are neutral to me) ,i didnt include expirience level, one may obtain exp with this method and learning easier on lsd after time of learning how to learn on lsd and some more i dont see now.(more experiments must be conducted)

lsd could be :set &setting dependend creative thinking enchancer ?(more reaserch)

summary:lsd could aid reaserchers but it first must be reasearched for this purpose dose dependant

here i change the direction of reaserch: maybe lsd could produce inspiration for discoveries or provide motivation(i think it does to some extend) .this could co-help learning proccedure...

anyways maybe someone wondered about lsd possibilities of lsd enchancing learning performance??

Before his death from leukemia [probably due to protesting at nuclear test sites], a famous scientist advocated the use of marijuana to increase sensitivity toward reality. He stressed a combination of wonder and skepticism to ascertain clues as to how the world works.

cognitive or spiritual, L makes smart people.

70-100mic is going to be way too much, I have found 20-40 mics ideal for problem solving. I'm not so good at reading on low dose lsd (maybe at 10 mics I could?) but I am very good at understanding and retaining visual information at this dosage. One time I tried to read Gravity's Rainbow on acid and while I only made it through a single page, the content of that page will be etched in my mind for eternity.

The come up and first hour are not useful (better spent enjoying the electricity) but after I settle into a low dose lsd trip I am able to focus on unsolved work problems. For me, this is logic + creative (designing user interfaces) but I think it could work for any problem solving as long as you already have the skills and knowledge on hand.

What LSD will not do is teach practical skills you don't already know. What it does seem to do is break down cognitive walls and allow me to access solutions my ego or pointless outside limitations were keeping me from reaching.

What is crucial for me is keeping the effort light and playful -- if you bring stress or fear in with you, all the usual complications come up. Freaking out over a deadline on low dose acid isn't helpful.

Or one could just heed the expression, "sleep on it." I have had so many problem solving occasions where I would be completely stumped and frustrated with how impossible a problem seemed, and then after taking a break and getting some leisure time in, the solution pops up, seems so obvious, and makes me wonder why I didn't think of it to begin with.

Sleeping does work and is much less draining
