[LSD Subthread] First time LSD

You should NEVER put a drug into your system without doing as much research on it as possible.

First off, do as much reading on Erowid (http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd.shtml). Read as much as possible.

Also, read a couple trip reports, first timer trip reports are interesting to read. Be sure to check them all out. (http://www.erowid.org/experiences/subs/exp_LSD.shtml)

Good luck on Friday!
Goof vibes, man! ;)

Nice post with some good advice. :)

Do some more reading on the matter, some good responses in here.

Merging with the First time LSD thread. :)
 
LSD Acid -- First Timer

I will hopefully be doing acid tomorrow, Friday. Me and a friend are planning on taking 2 tabs, as neither of us have done acid, or any psychedelic drug for that matter. Well, we smoke weed all the time, if you consider that psychedelic. I've done ecstasy close to 10 times (1-2 pills per roll). My friend has never done ecstasy.

If my connects go through, I should be getting my 'cid around 3:30-4:00, if not earlier. I'll probably take them shortly after I obtain them.


Anyway, I've read a bunch about LSD and such, whether it be on bluelight, erowid, or other websites. I've concluded the best amount to take is 2 tabs for your first trip. (I have no clue how potent the tabs are.) We plan on hanging out for a while, going to the football game, maybe watching a movie, then crashing at a friend's house.

We never get paranoid or freak-out if we're stoned/drunk/etc. But I'm just wondering if there's anymore tips out there from you guys, who've tripped once or all the time. I think I've got the jist of it, but there's so much information out there, I'm not sure what exactly to believe and what not to. (Even though I think I've gotten a good realization of what to expect.)

What will it feel like as I'm coming up? Feelings during the trip? Is it like XTC as all where you want to walk for hours and hours? Any music suggestions? Thx <3

(I'm planning on not driving while tripping.)

Thank you bluelight. Wish me luck :)
 
Dont go to a football game with a friend who has never even rolled, when both of you have never dropped acid and have no idea how potent it will be.

It wont NECESSARILY end badly, but will most likely be a massive fail. Do it somewhere private and very comfortable for your first time, get to know acid before you go venturing into public. Trust me, its not all fun and games out there.

I should also add that not getting paranoid when drunk (people get paranoid when theyre drunk? i thought it was called confusion and idiocy) or stoned is irrelevant to acid. It's about set and setting, more than you realise until you get to know it or make a big fuckup.
 
Football? No, bad idea. Too public; lots of people get paranoid around others while tripping, even if they don't on other things. Especially since you have not experienced it before.

I would also reccomend to take 1 tab each for a first time, rather than 2. Quality varies widely, and you probably don't want to take 2 tabs unless you know that this stuff is weak.

That said, i hope you have a good trip :-)
 
Thanks guys. And what I meant by the paranoid thing is that I know quite a few people who just get flat out paranoid while stoned. Like thinking everyone is out to get them, everyone is a cop/parent/teacher/etc.
 
no football!! i went to the county fair once and that was pretty bad.. no big festivals that are not drug friendly... ;-)

definitely have some weed on hand!! its great to calm down and it makes the experience change in a very cool way..!!

i took one blotter my first time back in like 1995 and it was enough.. taking two or more you might want to have done some research and figured out what to expect better because things get pretty confusing on higher doses..

i hope you have a really good time!!!! :-D
 
There is no frame of reference to describe what acid is like, dozens of mushroom trips did nothing to prepare me for the full blown electric kaleidoscope that is LSD. There really is no useful comparison to E/booze/dope, it is an experience qualitatively different to anything else you have known. Eldaren is right, the football game seems like a bad idea. You should trip somewhere you feel comfortable, where you aren't going to have to behave in a socially acceptable way. If it all goes tits up the Psychedelic Crisis FAQ should be of assistance. I'm sure you won't need it though, may your trip be a wonderful, life changing experience.
 
First Time Using LSD, What Do I Do?

Hey everyone. Thanks in advance for your input. :]

So, today is going to be my first time trying LSD. I'm super excited. :] Only problem is, I have NO clue on what to do? Me and my friend who has tripped before were going to go to Times Square and watch a movie then walk around and stuff, but everything in the city is so expensive. So then I was thinking of a Hookah Bar, but eh, I dunno. Its also ugly out so we cant really just chill outside. She also doesnt like to trip in an enclosed small room, so just staying home is out of the question.

Do you guys have any suggestions? Maybe an arcade? Idk.
 
do whatever you and your friend would normally do when hanging out, and then get immersed in crazy conversations.
 
Yeah, generally having to deal with the "civilized" world on psychedelics doesn't fit so well. :\

It seems like you are drawn to public places. Are you sure you want to be in such a situation for an acid trip?

I understand not wanting to be couped up inside; I understand that one to the millionth degree ;) :)

Have you thought about maybe just hanging out in a park or other nature setting? Do you have somewhere you can go hiking?
 
first time acid

i have always had a interest in trying acid, i have recently made a contact to get some and am very keen on trying it, i come from a small town and drugs other than speed/weed/pills are kinda hard to come by. i am a frequent pill user and love to have a few beers and smoke a bit of weed. i have been doing a bit of research on lsd and it just seems like one of the most beautiful drugs in existence. before looking online i had been believing that acid makes your brain bleed etc due to rumours from people who hadnt even tryed it and now i know that is not true. however i still do have a few questions that i havent exactly been able to find, or be directly answered.

i plan on taking 1 tab just as a first go small dose, how long 'roughly' will this last? and does acid damage your brain in any way like abusing mdma does? are there health risks and is it safe to drink while tripping? i also plan on taking ecstasy with acid the next time i try it if i have a good time, is this toxic?

thanks for the help, i have been looking on this site and erowid and have found them both very helpful but was after some answers i couldnt really find :)
 
Moving this to the First Time Acid Thread in a minute...

to answer your questions:
A 'tab' is not a real unit of dosing but a practical/imaginary or almost arbitrary one... it depends on how many micrograms of LSD are in the tab. But even low doses make for a duration of experience thats pretty much standard: about 8-10 hours with some tapering residual effects for some hours to follow. If the dose is really low the tapering effects may become to weak to notice that is the only thing. But shortening the duration is otherwise just not possible.
Acid doesn't damage the brain like MDMA does at all and is not physically harmful. That said it does cause pretty intense brain activity that can be quite exhausting in another way. There can also be impurities in acid (very pure LSD is rarely found though its not a big issue) that can give a body load and make it extra tiring. It's not something to worry about but especially high doses can cost your body and brain plenty of energy so pay attention to that is all.
If you take ecstacy (i.e. real E - MDMA) with it the damage is done by the MDMA but its increased by the LSD (LSD exaggerates both physical processes as well as mental processes - they are a reflection of each other), especially if the doses are high (that goes double for the MDMA dose) the comedown can be particularly harsh. I have experienced this first hand at higher doses of both, though at other times when the doses were limited it was very doable. In terms of toxicity, yes MDMA has neurotoxic effects.

Combining other stuff with LSD is really not recommended the first time(s), you need to get to know the effects by itself first and if you make yourself open to that you won't need anything else for a substantial number of trips because it stays magical enough for pretty long!
Drinking just blurs the trip and makes it scattered fucked up and fuzzy. It really feels to me like you would call 'getting wasted' which is not a valuable experience in comparison to just LSD. Again, you can try it but I wouldn't until after getting to know acid deeply.
 
yeah, i heavily drink while doing ecstasy, infact i have never once done pills without drinking, i feel weird without a beer in my hand when im out, i get the feeling that i need to have more and get more fucked up and i dont really know how to explain, i dont do things in moderation.

thanks for the info man that was really helpful, so there is no long term damage?
