First off, it's good to be back on here. It's been awhile since I was last logged on here and am excited to see whats new on bl.

So im planning an lsd trip, but I want to be completely alone. There might be someone else in the house at some time during the trip, but if that happens im just going to isolate myself in my room. I've done lsd before and I currently have the same batch as the last time I did it.

I pretty much live out of my room so everything I need is here. My guitar, my comp, my games, my music, everything. So having to fall back in here as a plan b is fine. I was thinking of pickiing up some paints or some stuff to color and draw if I choose to do so. I will prolly be playin alot of guitar, maybe doing some writing and trying to travel inner space. I want to be alone for this, phone is going off, no talking to anyone online, just me and my thoughts. Oh and I guess my dog can hang out if he wants to.

I will be listening to ALOT of Buckethead's Electric Tears album, one of my favoritest albums. One man and his guitar playing amazing music. I have other playlists lined up but it will be mostly that album.

Just wondering if anyone else has ideas for a solo trip, and their experiences with them. I will prolly write up a trip report for this when im done too, maybe part of it will be written during the trip. I don't have a day planned yet, im just waiting for right moment and i'll kno it when it comes.
 
I trip alone probably 80% of the time. I like it better because nothing gets in the way of my thoughts and then I don't have to worry about anyone else. I really only enjoy tripping with other people to make a deeper connection with them. Your plan sounds good to me since you have all things you like and seem like you'll be occupied. Lastly I hope you have a great time!

Agreed!

Here is a great thread:

I solo trip a lot, just get some good music & some films, cooking & making food is fun (the smells!), baths/showers are good.

:)
 
i trip alone often as well. the only problem i forsee (and have dealt with) is an increased paranoia about leaving my room once the trip gets going full swing. especially about things like going the the bathroom. while i would never feel this way sober, tripping seems to bring it out in me (not going to the bathroom, but dealing with straight people when im tripping balls). and once that starts it kinda spirals outward and sometimes leaves me feeling trapped in my room, not a good feeling.

This exactly, Tripping alone is by far the best way to do it in my opinion. Theres no social elements to worry about so you can just do anything you please without anyone there to look at you funny.
 
I used to feel that tripping alone was the way to go. But recently I have been tripping with some close friends and have found my experiences becoming much more enjoyable. Especially with high doses it is sometimes nice to have someone else around to help with any stumbling blocks that may occur along your journey

That said, I have tripped alone a lot and have had a lot of good experiences as well. It sounds like you have a good plan. Im sure you will have a good time. Ambient/ Electronic techno is my music of choice for tripping

Have yourself a good time :)

I was the other way around but i found that after a while i was learning to much about my close friends or i was reading to much into what they where saying and i started to enjoy being around them less and less. so now i only take LSD alone or at doofs and pills at parties.
 
Understandable. I dont necessarily enjoy talking to people while I am tripping but having the company these past couple trips has been nice for me.

I am going to dose some 2c-i by myself sometime in the next several days :)
 
My advice, have some form of music going all the time.. music keeps your mind on an even-key while tripping alone, without it you may go 'deep'.. which can be uncomfortable if you just want to have a smooth trip.. ego-deconstruction is easy when alone with your thoughts, it just depends on what your intentions are, solo tripping is amazing for deep introspection though.

I've done a sensory deprivation trip in my room on some liquid.. to see where my mind would go if it had no external stimuli.. it's amazing where you mind will go without any input.. other times i've just chilled out to music and let my self flow through the rhythm and tempo.
 
isolating yourself in a room is not really conducive to an acid trip....

Trust me, try to go outside on a nice day once it warms up some more....

nature is beautiful.

Wait until your parents are out of the house, there were times when i would just set my alarm clock to wake up an hour or two before sunrise and drop some acid, and watch it... Parents go to work before i was tripping and im back to a socially acceptable level a little after noon.

^thats your opinion, both can be conducive of a productive and fun trip.

Your right, that is on opinion.

But its an opinion based off having been there.

What are you going to do in your room?

Sit on the computer, watch the tv, lay on bed, play video games....

other than laying on a bed, very few of these things are really that good of an idea for an acid trip.

Computer, its great for music. but i get very little out of it tripping as far as going about the internet.

Television. I don't have one in my room because i don't want one in my room. Most of its pretty mindless, and commercials fuck with some people. The artificiality of average television makes me disdain society.

Video games, smoke some pot and play them, don't drop acid and play them.

Really the only benefits of tripping in a room are if you really just want some quiet time to yourself or like pushing the limits of where your brain can go in absence of stimulus. Drop some acid and lay down in a dark room and just see where your mind goes, but that is not something i recommend to a someone new to the drug and has never tripped alone.

My favorite thing to do when tripping alone is to take my ipod with a good playlist and walk around outside in the middle of the night.... Feeling as if im the only one on earth. Everything is just peaceful and quiet....

Acid is just one of those things that makes most people kind of adventurous and to confine yourself to a single room for the entirety of it just isn't something i recommend. When i was doing what you were doing it got to the point where i would just leave my room and go about the house even if family were still awake. I really didn't care, they never called me out on anything but i generally can be pretty composed around them if i need to be. Your mileage may vary....

But nature is beautiful, that's a generally accepted opinion.
 
i totally agree. i guess this is more in my case than the op's (since i dont know him). but like you said "just want some quiet time to yourself or like pushing the limits of where your brain can go in absence of stimulus."

i agree time in nature is very very nice on acid, but if thats not in the cards i wouldnt say dont trip just because you cant do this.
 
I enjoy tripping alone at home.
I listen to good music, I try to make some with my kaossilator, then maybe I dance, or lay down with my eyes closed, maybe I smoke a little, or a lot. Maybe I walk with my hands, or crawl, then I stretch, maybe I stare at the walls, or the floor, or I go "HMMMMMMMM" in front of the fan. I pet my cat, I cook something, maybe I go to the roof and look at the sky and the buildings around mine. Maybe I put something on the tv like Baraka or the Qasti trilogy.
Yes sometimes I get paranoid or something, but never ever I get bored alone on psychedelics.
 
Some video games are great for tripping - I am a particular fan of Geometry Wars and Rez HD (both from Xbox Live, both simplistic enough to play tripping yet involved enough to enjoy). That said, games are still shallow things to play with while tripping...
 
I am a bad person so I dont like haluc anyways.

But I would have to trip alone and not be distracted by another friends mania.
