LSD Tolerance

[problematic13]

I have posted this question on many different forums and read other threads about this topic and I can't seem to get a straight answer from anybody. I dropped acid for the first time last saturday night (9/29). I only had one tab. Its been 6 days since and I have 2 more that I would really like to use soon, as I'm going into a rehabilitation program for oxycodone sometime in the coming weeks. I have every intention of being clean after rehab, but I only did acid once and it was a bad trip, and I really want to experience this psychedelic in full before sobriety. What would happen if I took them tonight or tomorrow night, and if its a bad idea to, when would be a good time to take them?

Tolerance builds up quick on LSD and though you would probably still get the majority of the effects, it may be milder. If you do not have a problem with that, it is fine, perhaps even better as you will not have as intense of a trip. However, don't rush a psychedelic experience if you don't have to. How far away is your rehab exactly?

5-7 days is more than enough to reset your tolerance from a single tab, you'll be fine.

The "rule of thumb" is that tolerance to mushrooms/acid usually lasts 3-5 days at max.

In my experience, tolerance can slowly build up even when you space your trips out by about a week, though this effect is minor, and a 6 day break should be long enough to ensure the acid isn't wasted.

By the way, if you're suffering from opiate addiction and had a bad trip the first time, I would consider waiting until you're clean before taking any more acid. Concerns about the addiction could be at the root of your bad experience and would just cause you to have a bad trip again, this time at twice the intensity.

You'll be fine. Go for it, it's been a week after all.

The bad trip was caused by being dumped by my girlfriend less than an hour before. I'm in a surprisingly good frame of mind for being addicted to oxy. especially considering this is the third time around.




Thanks for the help guys!

Damn that sucks man, but did you think you would actually have a good time? Tripping when you just received some horrible news is never a good idea. Even when people like to say psychedelics can help get their head straight. Psychedelics can and will kick anybody's ass. There's a learning curve with tripping. A lot of bad times in my early days were caused by making stupid decisions. Don't be so sure you'll be immune from introspection about your addiction.

It's not like there is an exact way to measure tolerance. ~7 days is what most people say for LSD/Mushrooms. Having frequent experiences tends to lessen the magic also. 6 days would be fine if you only took 1 the week before.
