Hi everyone, I'm new to Bluelight

I'm considering dropping acid for the first time very soon, most likley at a New Years Party.

I'd like to try acid with some of my closest and most trustworthy friends, however none of these friends would be interested in trying acid at all.

Would it be okay to be the only one on a small ammount of LSD for the first time at what should be a medium scale party? Will I feel isolated, alienated or get any bad reaction directly from tripping on my own?
 
If its your first time i wouldn't advise tripping with a group of people, especially at a party and shit on acid can get very 'weird'... and lots of people being their could quite possibly steer you of the course of what could otherwise be a very meaningful/fun trip...when im tripping on acid and im the only one, i just tend to observe shit..especially on a low dose and it isnt very 'fun'

Why not just get drunk on new years and enjoy the party with your good friends? save the acid for a time when you can trip with a couple of good buddys who will sit you...acids kind of an 'all about me' drug..especially if your the only one tripping...
 
Ideally the first time you trip you should be with other people who understand the LSD experience and in a comfortable environment. LSD isn't really a drug I'd want to do at a party. But then again first time I tripped I was at a large concert and I was fine. Looking back on it now I'm surprised the trip went as well as it did. I think everyone experiences some feelings of fear and isolation while tripping but as long as you go with the flow of the trip you'll be fine.
 
Save it for another time. Or have somewhere to go if the party doesn't really feel like the place to be. Contingency plans and preparation in general are key.

With that said...Have fun! And there is nothing wrong with tripping around people who aren't tripping, if, as you stated, there is a strong degree of trust...Its just the party atmosphere that may get a bit...strange...

Tripping with sober people isn't bad. Tripping with people who have never tripped, on the other hand, is fucking lame.
 
Just don't have your first experience with people who don't understand LSD and are not doing it with you. And NOT at a party. It's not a party drug unless most of the people there are on it.

Take the time to set it up better. Read whatever you have to to understand what better conditions are.

It's a special thing and generally does not mix well.

This.


I can't explain how many times i've been like "Bro shut the fuck up im tripping on acid im not fucking retarded". 8)

Fucking people say the most retarded shit sometimes, acting like they have to talk slow and clear so you will understand when you're perfectly capable of understanding anything you normally would, if not BETTER.
 
Low dose LSD between 50-100 ugs with a few close mates who arnt tripping(and never have before) is alright as long as they know not to annoy you with Q's, the first time I tryed L was in this environment. I would definatly advise agaisnt going to a party while on it though.
 
i would have to agree with everyone here. mostly with the statement that tripping with sober people is fine and can actually be very rewarding for both parties IF the sober folks at least have a pretty decent idea of what you are experiencing. this may not be true for everyone though, and i could speculate that on a high dose it would not be so great. for my first acid trip i was camping with three friends also tripping, and one who was not, but had tripped his fair share of times. me and the sober friend are very similar and thoughts actually flowed more freely between him and I than with the other tripping friends at times. i have never tripped with more than 5 other people with me, and at times that was even a bit too much, i couldnt imagine being at a house party, especially on new years which is traditionally a holiday that lends itself to heavy drinking and everything that comes along with that. and as a general rule, people on psychs and people drinking alcohol do not mix, IMO.
 
with shrooms i couldnt take them unless with trippers but acid im fine
n im VERY paranoid bout bad trips , every time i drop a tab or whateva i always know
theres never no chance of a bad trip , esp in public, if its indoors party with cool people u kno , imo if ur on lsd ud have a fun time
 
Don't trip at a party with tons of strangers who you don't know or around drunks at a party.

There's nothing wrong with tripping around sober people as I've done it before but these people knew that I was on something and were OK with it and didn't do things like try to fuck with me or play jokes.
 
I forgot to add that my first experience was in a safe house.

My mate ended up going to an 18th one night on 1.5 hits, flipped it, then ended up in hospital :\
 
It's okay, I now have a better plan for next weekend :)
Just gonna invite some people round and my best mates up for tripping with me.

Is half a tab an ineffective ammount?

Keep some more halves on hand in case you change your mind a few hours in...but glad to hear you modified your plans...have an interesting time:D
 
It's kind of nice to be on the same frequency as other people if you know what I mean.. I've done shrooms and LSD with 1-2 other people and its nice having someone there who can relate to what you're seeing to share your thoughts with.
One time I did do 2c-b by myself. I was with a friend, who was also going to take some, but right after I took it decided not to. Instead he did lines of coke off a nutrition book lol. So I tripped alone. And though it was still pleasant, he couldn't relate to me, and I'd end up sharing thoughts with him he couldn't quite follow. I'd try to explain what I was seeing but I'd just get weird looks. I also kept him awake (I was able to sleep on shrooms and LSD but not the 2c's). So meh.. It is your choice. That's just my experience with it :)
 
i would definately advise against it. i like lsd but you should be familiar with the substance b4 you use it as a social drug.
the first time i had shrooms i was in another country and with people high on cocaine, this experience was horrible, they were laughing, talking, everything they did was too much for me, i soon learnt trip for your self and make the setting perfect for the experience you desire :)
 
Don't do it. Wait for the right moment. You can't force LSD, I've learned. I had very good acid, and the first time I tripped with two people that haven't tripped on LSD before, so we had no idea about set and setting. So we each took a tab, and I was selling it at the time. And we started to go up nicely, it was amazing for two hours, then I took more and gave my friends more, then an hour after that, I felt so good that I wanted more! (NEVER DO THIS IF YOUR INEXPERIENCED)

The peak doesnt occur until about 2-4 hours? From initial dose. And since I was having such a good time on my first dose, my second one was coming up as i dosed a third time, and as i started to peak higher from the second dose, things got too much for me. Shit was breathing in and out, distortion everywhere. Black and white things, were purple and green. I felt like my couch was swallowing me. All of this started happening, freaking me out a little then I kept peaking more and more cause the third dose was coming up. And by the time that happened, i completely lost it. Some friend came over that wasn't tripping and he freaked me the fuck out so bad, I couldn't handle it. I told him to go, I told everyone to go. I went in my room and think I went into an ego-death, I'm not sure but I completely lost it. I was so scared, paranoid, anxious, I didnt know what was going on. I knew it would be over but that didn't work, I started crying I called my girlfriend who only smoked weed and she flipped the fuck out, and when ur tripping YOU DONT WANT THAT.

Negative vibes, so bad. I couldn't even talk to her cause I didn't make sense to her, and my brain stopped cause it was so clogged that I couldn't think. I tripped for over 14 hours and was able to sleep finally.

In conclusion, non-trippers can seriously mess with the direction of your trip. Also, do not make the mistake I did of dosing more and more. That was just over a year ago, and I still am scared to try it again. And because of that it will most likely cause a bad trip instantly cause I will be freaked out by seeing what I saw last time. I really would love to try it again, but I would only want to do it with some serious acid head, someone spiritual, not to get 'fucked up' I want to do it for a spiritual awakening, to change things in my mind and my life. To make me happier.

I hope one day this can happen.
 
I'd bet if you an extrovert you'd probably be fine taking it at a party but if your an introvert I'd advise against it. My first time I took two strong tabs by myself and even years later I still remember that trip. It will always be special to me, and being at a party would have ruined that, but Im an introvert and much prefer tripping alone anyways.
 
"trip sitting" is a common term for when one person tripping is accompanied by a person who isn't therefore acting as a source or security and normalness and possibly as reassurance to prevent outside disturbances to the fragile first time trippers impressions on his or her personal safety and freedom in a tripping state of mind.

I remember back in the day something as simple as going to a friends place for a moment to grab their forgotten wallet would be a 90 minute trip loop in hell.

friggin hilarious now though!
