Quick question; what are acid comedowns like?

Having done both acid and MDMA, I can say that the MDMA comedown is far worse. After an acid trip, I never feel physically off like I do with MDMA. The next day, I'm a bit off mentally because I can't stop thinking about the trip but my body feels normal. If you've dealt with MDMA comedowns, LSD should be fine.
 
By far the come down on MDMA is at least 10x worse. From the depression to the lack of interest in anything. The following week is missary to say the least. All my thoughts are negative, i feel like ive been stripped of all my emotions. Sometimes after a hard weekend i would be talking backwards. Almost like drug induced dislexia. Forgetting what im saying in the middle of my sentence and "Tip of the Tounge Syndrome".

LSD's comedown is much lighter. Usually a sense of relief that you can think clearly again. What usually happens is after the peak i start to feel like i had just had sex. That ahh feeling. Then i usually find my self being able to talk in coherent sentence's again. Not much thought just knowing that ive learned so much and i have to look at my notebook.

The morning after a very heavy LSD experience makes you enjoy your life much much more. The fact that you can think again and talk in sentences that people understand. I usually find my self working on the tasks that i thought of the night before.
 
This is something that you'll hear a lot of varying opinions about. However, IME, it's not really all that fun. Not paranoid, not crushingly depressive, but very "blah" and not anything to look forward too. Very much a zombification.

Occasionally, I'll start spiraling down from my high really quickly after the peak, and the abruptness of the return to baseline is really jarring and difficult to cope with. Although I floated down very comfortably on my last trip.
 
Comedown from LSD... there is none. It just wears off little by little. Comes on super smooth, wears off super smooth. If its good clean and pure, properly purified of related lysergic amines that just have body ick effects, nothing better. Nothing.

Crying and immobilizing paranoia coming down off MDMA, WTF? Never had that or heard anyone who did, so I dunno what is going on with you but it is NOT usual in any way.

Coming down from Molly I may get a little head-achey, stiff in the body, a sort of dissatisfied "bleh" feeling... at this point it is best to take a hit of Valium or Xanax or even Phenibut that you can get from supplement stores un-controlled that works that exact same was as benzos is the best way to conk out and end any such negative feelings.

I've had friends that go so heavy on it as well that they get those horrible MDMA crashes too, it's not entirely abnormal but it IS 1000x worse than a hangover and it is something i've experienced.
thanks for the tips though, much appreciated
 
Yeah, good acid has a very pleasant "come down". I put that in quotes because I wouldn't call it a comedown in the traditional sense, its more just part of the experience. You pleasantly transition back into reality and feel relatively euphoric and content with life.

That surprises me. I find it a bit of a shame that this happens to you. It's certainly something that would make me think twice before using acid, if it was me. Then again, I'd probably just use it anyway :D sounds like it hasn't put you off it.
 
With acid I find there's a slow gentle reduction in the effects. The comedown is not unpleasant at all. Also as the peak of the acid wears off I find the hallucinations progress from morphing to seeing lots of pretty patterns everywhere :D
 
Am I the only one that doesn't "crash" off MDMA? i sctually get kind of an afterglow (might be part MDA)

I don't really "crash" off it either. But it does wear me the fuck out; could be a result of sleep dep, etc...


To the OP, Acid comedowns are different for everybody. For me they are beautiful. They are a time in the trip when I'm not tripping too hard to realize how beautiful my trip was.... If that makes any sense.
 
ive never had much of a come down from acid. for me its usually jsut thinking about everything that happened during the trip and makin sense of it. i also usually smoke some weed to bring it back up somewhat
