LSD question... fairly inexperienced user... fast reply please

[gearfiend]

so im probably about to drop 3 hits of acid. about how long will the trip last? and how long will it be before i can act normally again around other people?

 

[kidklmx]

Have you tried this blotter before? That should give you an idea of the intensity and duration even if you're inexperienced. I never fully come down until I've had a good night's sleep though

 

[gearfiend]

no i havent. ive only had one hit before, and it was only about a threshold dose, no visuals or anything just mental effects (one hit). its been nearly an hour since i dropped all 3... still not feeling much if anything (i take vyvanse, had one 70mg cap at ~same time, i have very high tolerance though).

 

[gearfiend]

little late for that... dropped all 3 nearly an hour and a half ago. dropped around 10:10, now 11:25. feeling a slight head load, but probably more just the vyvanse than anything.... hope its not bunk shit again. had that happen twice before, only had real acid once and that was only one hit

 

[gearfiend]

the blotter didnt taste bitter or chemical-y (not sure of better word), so if anything it was just paper. what point should i expect to start seeing visuals, etc if this really is acid...

 

[sekio]

if you're not feeling anything after 1h30 then you got ripped the fuck off !

esp if you took 3 hits. most of the time people feel alerts anywhere from 40-60 min in.
if it was even mediocre blotter 3 hits should have you pretty altered...

 

[gearfiend]

those were my thoughts. its hard to get real acid around here, and the guy i got it from is someone i trust and have known for a long time. he got ripped off then, the same thing happened the last time he got 'acid', turned out a guy he knew for a long time burned him for Halo 4 (was being used as collateral), and sold the game immediately just to buy $20 worth of spice. that shit turns people into crackheads... its weedcrack. he was actually paying me back with this stuff for that last time, seems he got screwed again... unfortunate that such a wonderful psych is so hard to come by. i truly enjoyed just one hit, played starcraft 2 the entire time with a buddy, acid made me much better at the game as i tried a variety of new strategies instead of my normal structured approach.

Has it kicked in, or still nothing happening?

It is very unwise to down three tabs of untested blotter, especially if you're inexperienced with LSD. From now on don't try three tabs until you've tried two first.

Also, you should do some basic research on LSD before you trip again. The information you were asking about is readily available on Erowid, plus more that's worth knowing.

 

[gearfiend]

i have done quite a bit of research on it, but i havent found a definitive answer per se, mostly just people saying anywhere from .5 hours to 1.5 hours for effects to begin (for me, the one hit i took took about 1.25 hours for a definite noticeable effect)... just thought i would ask on here to get some answers from actual people. double-checking never hurts

 

[kidklmx]

Could be that the acid has degraded though, the fact that you were better at Starcraft II counts for something. Don't think the DOxes (never tried em) or NBOMes (definitely not) offer such cognitive enhancement.

No? I have heard on multiple occasions that DOC can make a person quite the sharp tool, and on the DOB experiences I had I also felt like a very analytical computer daemon, it offered great insight and thinking capacity, unfortunately I wasn't a whole lot of fun. All of that is not surprising since they are amphetamines.

I agree about being more careful next time: if they had been the wrong compound and/or the wrong dose maybe you'd have been regretting that very much. Always check new batches of any drug first apprehensively unless it has been lab analyzed by a third party.

Hopefully gear's questions are answered? Otherwise I'd like to refer you to the Beginner's FAQ and most of all PD's Index, in which you can find the LSD thread and the several subthreads it includes on all kinds of topics like 'First Time LSD' or 'Dosage & ROAs'... Links are below in my sig, and at the top of the PD main page.
