LSD + MDMA (Candyflipping) - First experience - "Falling off the face of the Earth?"
Substance: LSD (1 Hit - Blotter) + MDMA (300mg Molly)
Experience: MDMA (Pills&Molly), Cocaine, Mephedrone, Cannabis
This is my first trip report – I have a feeling it’s going to get a little lengthy…I’m still trying to make sense of the whole experience! I’ll try to weed out the “bloggy” parts.
Setting: Live show at a gorgeous outdoor venue with three of my favorite artists. First time tripping on LSD, but I am experienced with MDMA. I am with a group of 9-10 friends. 4 are on 2 hits of acid, 2 are hippyflipping, the rest are on 200-400mg of molly. In retrospect, I think I'd rather have experienced LSD on its own first before candyflipping, but the experience was nothing short of incredible. The effects I was seeking were the strong visuals of LSD to accompany a traditional rolling experience. It didn’t feel quite like rolling so I’m guessing it wasn’t quite like straight tripping, either – which is why I plan to take LSD another time without any other drugs.
10:00AM – Consume 1000mg Vitamin C, Omega 3 Fish-Oil (I take both of these every day)
3:00PM – Consume 1000mg Vitamin C
5:00PM – Last intake of food for the evening. I consume one slice of pizza.
6:00PM – Consume 1000mg Vitamin C
7:00PM – Enter the venue – having a great time dancing and enjoying the beauty of this outdoor venue.
8:00PM - 1 hit of LSD sublingual. Obtained the acid from a very experienced friend who, when she gave it to me, was already tripping hard on 2 hits of the same acid. She said it was very strong but that I should expect about an hour to come up.
9:00PM - Feeling nothing – or am I? I am not experiencing any visual or auditory distortions, but perhaps at this point I feel slightly uplifted. I am enjoying the atmosphere of this venue even more than before. A few of my other friends who are not tripping are already rolling on the same molly I am planning to take once I peak on the acid. I am greatly enjoying their presences – especially two who have never rolled before and are having a fantastic time. Lots of hugs, dancing, massages, etc. I had gone into the night with the mindset that I was just going to go with the flow. I tried my best all day to clear my mind of any expectations of what the trip would be like, I felt totally relaxed and free of any anxiety about the night – “whatever happens, happens”. Starting to think that perhaps I was not going to trip – but waited to consume any molly in case the LSD took effect.
9:15PM –I notice my first slight visual distortion. This outdoor venue overlooks a major metropolitan area which, at night, looks absolutely amazing all lit up. The lights were sparkling as they had been all night, but the city as a whole seemed to be rolling slightly – like a gentle ocean wave. I looked up at the stars which seemed to be pulsing ever so slightly – but I still wasn’t convinced (I think because I had honestly been hoping for something more intense). I look down at my feet and suddenly think to myself “I wonder if it is me that is breathing, or is it my shirt?” My shirt seemed to ripple ever so slightly for a moment and then stopped. At the time, however, I still wasn’t convinced I was really tripping.
9:30PM – Still not noticing any major changes in my mindset or visual/auditory changes. I decide to consume my first 100mg dose of molly because the night is getting later and I want to start rolling before it gets too late. I take the 100mg sublingually, letting it sit under my tongue until the majority of it dissolves. I swig the rest down with a few gulps of water. Shortly after, there is a set break before the main artist comes on. I sit down and relax – trying to listen to my body and hopefully pick up on some subtle changes.
9:45PM – Starting to feel much more social, talking at what feels like 5,000 words per minute. It seems to be too early to be coming up on the MDMA, however. The next act begins and we’re all dancing – by now everyone is rolling and I turn to another friend and for just a moment his eye appeared to bulge out of his face and I couldn’t help but laugh at him. I couldn’t stop smiling.
10:00PM – I can feel the MDMA in effect for sure by now – definitely going up rapidly. A friend asks me if I’d like to go to the top of the theatre to meet up with our friend who gave me the acid (the venue is setup with a steep incline so that everyone has a fantastic view of the stage – and the view from the top is particularly stunning). I hold onto my friend’s shirt so he can guide me out of the crowd toward the stairs. The music at this point is almost conveying to me a slow, curious emotion and I find myself walking to the pace of the beat. By now my mind has been wandering and when we reach the stairs I ask my friend “Do you know how fast we’re moving right now?” He replied “Very slowly! You’re so slow!!” I laughed and told him, “No! I mean the Earth! We’re spinning so fast right now! I bet we’re spinning so fast we might even just fall right off the face of the Earth if we’re not careful!” I stopped dead in my tracks and gasped. I grabbed onto my friend’s shirt quickly once more – convinced somehow that I was going to fall off the face of the Earth. Both my friend and I burst out laughing – it was like I knew how absurd I was being, but I had to go along with it. The walk up the stairs to the top took awhile and we took quite a few breaks on the way – the stairs appeared to be rolling up and down as I was walking on them which made things a little challenging. I was definitely enjoying myself, however.
10:15PM – We reach the top of the venue and my jaw drops. The last 12 rows are much emptier than the rest of the venue, which is packed. There is lots of room to dance and move around – everyone up top seemed to be deep in their own world, having a fantastic time. Some are spinning poi, some are dressed with feathery headdresses or others dressed as animals. In my mind, it’s all like Halloween and I’m loving every second of it. The view is absolutely breathtaking and the thought of it now still gives me chills. The lights from the stage at the very bottom illuminate the entire crowd. Everyone in the crowd is moving to the music – like one huge wave of people. I start to dance too, but I feel like I am a god-like figure at the top of the venue, controlling everyone’s dancing – throwing my arms in the air as if I were a puppet master of sorts. I am loving this so much. We meet up with our other friends who are tripping much harder than I am – experiencing much more intense visuals (I am jealous, but not about to take another hit of acid in fear the experience will become too intense for a first-timer).
10:30PM – We are still at the “top of the world” as I’m now calling it. I tell my friend that I’m convinced we are in a slice of heaven at the edge of the world – pointing out the gently waving city below and how it appeared to drop off into nothingness where the lights end. I take my second 100mg dose of MDMA at this point, again sublingually with a little water. We are smoking menthols non-stop now, the music sounds fantastic, but I think to myself that the musical experience is not quite as intense as prior shows at which I’ve consumed only MDMA. I feel a little nauseous, but the feeling subsides when I sip some water and hold onto my friend’s shirt once more – convincing myself that I’m not going to fall off the face of the earth if I continue to do so. In retrospect, my friend had somehow become a little token keeping me somehow connected to reality. Things get a little fuzzy here and time is very, very distorted. I stand at the edge of a row and lean towards the stage and yell. I hear my voice echo back over the music, very loudly. I love this – I think it’s hilarious and I continue to do it – asking my friends if they can hear it too. My friends go along with it and tell me that I’m really good at it. In some way, I knew they were fucking with me, but I laugh and keep echoing.
Sometime between 10:30 and 11:30, I am towed around by my friend (who is keeping me from falling off the face of the earth – the more I think about it, the more convinced I become that I will actually fall right off!). We go up and down between row 30 and “the top of the world” – sometimes accompanied by different friends who want to see the view from the top. At one point I felt very nauseous and vomited a little but instantly felt better.
11:30PM – I am estimating that I took my last 100mg dose of MDMA around this time – accompanied by some temporary nausea that quickly passes. Between 11:30 and 12:30, the night is very much a blur. I felt incredibly social and somewhat introspective. At one point I shut my eyes and everything was white except for a colorful geometric shape that changed shapes and colors in rhythm with the music.
12:45AM – The show is over, we head outside to the car. We smoke a few bowls on the ride home. Everyone else is wiped out, coming down from the MDMA. I, however, am still wide awake, spewing mindless jargon that everyone seems to find funny. We listen to some music which still sounds very nice.
2:00AM – We are back at home now, smoking another bowl outside. I’m still tripping, not nearly as hard as before – but my mindset is still whack. In retrospect, I never really noticed the comedown from the MDMA. We bump into some other people outside who were at the same show. Two of them are still tripping and we bond somewhat over our experience – for one of them it had also been her first time tripping as well.
3:00AM – I head back to my room. My roommates are both asleep and I am still tripping. I listen to some music, chat with some friends and eventually crawl into bed at 5:00AM, exhausted. I had very strange thoughts/dreams for awhile and even found myself waking up saying a word out loud – which echoed like before. Slightly frustrated now, wishing I’d just return to baseline, I eventually fall asleep. I wake up around 10:00AM, feeling a little weird – mostly just contemplating everything that had occurred the night before. I eat a bowl of cereal and an apple around 12:00 and sleep from 1:00PM until 6:30PM.
I felt very introspective the two days following my first candyflipping experience. I later recalled a conversation with a friend at the show in which I said to her, “I wonder if I’ll ever stop tripping…” She replied “Probably”. I then said, “Well I wonder if I’ll ever be quite normal after this.” And she really hit it home when she said, “Were you ever really normal to begin with?”
I’m thankful, having read some of the other first-time candyflip reports, that my experience was pleasant and enjoyable. I don’t know that I plan to candyflip again in the near future, however. I think I like just plain rolling a little too much – but if I were to see the same artist again, I would definitely consider taking 2-3 hits of acid and skipping the MDMA all together.
Anyways... like I said at the beginning, I was hoping for some intense visuals because I never really experience tracers or trails on MDMA. I was hoping that LSD would get some color distortion and CEVs/OEVs. Is it possible I just need a higher dose for that sort of experience? Trying psilocybin for the first time this weekend, hoping that will be more visual for me.
Cheers
