First off, anything like molly comedowns? I've been doing m for a while now, heavily and as frequently as i can. (i take 5htp and antioxidants that make it possible)
Normally on a molly comedown (bad one) i get paranoid so i have to stay in the same place out of fear. i don't eat, don't sleep, cry fuckloads and am really sad and nostalgic. I always crave it for a while after. Can acid be the same?

What's the best way (you) cope with the comedown? (if its bad anyway)
I usually just smoke a j on a molly comedown, helps heaps, does it work to do that with acid too?
Droppin tomorrow <:D
thanks !

IME LSD comedowns are not full of paranoia or like how you described an MDMA comedown. I've never taken MDMA/MDA but I have taken some stims and I found coke to have a horrible crash like you described an MDMA comedown/crash.

With LSD you may get spiritual revelations or insights into your personal life both during the trip and during the start of the comedown. This sort of thing would happen to me on mushrooms too. No you're probably not going to be sad/paranoid or crying when you comedown from acid. With LSD you may want to repeat the experience again but you probably won't get a craving for it like you do from a stimulant.

I found that while I love to smoke herb while on LSD before or during the peak that smoking during the comedown when I just want to lie in bed and relax isn't going to help when I've had an intense trip or even a light/moderate LSD experience and I just want to sort of go back to baseline when I'm no longer tripping.
 
well Ive never experienced what happens to u from coming down off molly, well maybe from a huge bomb, but anyways that being said the lsd comedown to me is a very gentle thing, starting around 6-8 hours, then slowly and beautifully leveling off for another 4-6
 
ahh good to hear so far, haha peeved i'll get hooked or pay for it through a shitty comedown like molly does.
*moe.ron xD yeah i only get comedowns like that when i do a lot, usually accompanied w/booze, maybe its the hangover mixed in?
 
Acid comedown is beautifiul; just be gentle on yourself, somewhere calm and relaxing (outdoors at a deserted beach or in a forest or in bed) with a loved one and bask in the afterglow.

Comedowns from MDMA are fucking horrid. A major reason that I haven't touched the shit in over 7 years.
 
IMO the comedown from lsd is potentially very rewarding. As long as you can accept that the peak is over, but that you're also not back to baseline and probably won't sleep, you'll be fine. Trying to go to sleep too soon can be uncomfortable, so find something nice and relaxing to do. I don't even attempt to go to sleep until at least 16 hours after the trip began, usually even more.
 
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 crash from MDMA either, but I keep my use very minimal. A few times a year at doses below 100 mg. Just as an enhancer, or to combine with LSD or other psychedelics.

I don't either. Aside from mild clenching, I suffer no ill effects at all. And pre-loading magnesium gets rid of that for me. Every reacts differently. Just pay attention to your body and be careful.
 
You can feel tired in the morning if you tripped whole night dancing and exploring envoirment but this applies for everything. In my experiance if you add lots of weed to the mix it will make you sleepy before the trip is fully over and it can be unconfortable. But generaly acid comedows are great just make sure you arent too sleep deprived and eat a hot meal( trust me it can bring back a lot energy from all night tripping).

Blotter for everyone. /wave
 
If you associate the word 'comedown' with the completely fucked-up nastiness that you experience with most stimulants, MDMA especially, then you can't really call the LSD after-experience a comedown at all.

To be honest even with no sleep I feel refreshed after coming down of acid, and a warm, glowy, content feeling (the afterglow). I got that feeling the first time with MDMA too... but of course that stuff turns on you in the end.

You have nothing to worry about.
 
I love the come-down sometimes more than the trip itself. It feels good to come back.... It doesn't bring you back all at once. I feel with mdma, there is a point where it almost immediately drops off. No come up really nor any come down.... the come down is more a crash where i feel drained... I'll go up around 75 -85 minutes after dosing and come down abruptly after 3-4 hours of rolling good. LSD gradually brings me deeper into the space for the first couple hours, usually starting at 30 minutes and culminating at 60 - 100 minutes, and then I'll peak for 5-7 hours and then come down for a few hours. It is more even... but it sucks if you are trying to go to bed... I never go to bed directly after an acid trip, mostly because I feel really good for what I was able to experience.

The come-down of an LSD trip is filled with post trip chatter... I can talk and talk and talk at this point. It usually goes on for a couple hours... all the excess stimulation makes its way into words and conversations.

Also the come-down is a period where I would consider drawing out the buzz with another psychedelic.... at least during those binge points of life.

Peace!
 
Wow i'm surprised, I figured more people would have terrible comedowns off acid. For me they're worse than any other comedown, mdma, coke, etc. I always feel so physically and emotionally drained, and then on top of that I can never fall asleep the day after. Maybe its because I always do large doses? (min 9 tabs each time)
 
My first experience with pure MDMA left me wanting more after I knew I was coming down. My other friend drank his own urine even. :p
With my LSD experiences the comedown was nothing like MDMA. I only have trouble falling asleep as my thoughts are racing for quite awhile after peaking.
 
I don't either. Aside from mild clenching, I suffer no ill effects at all. And pre-loading magnesium gets rid of that for me. Every reacts differently. Just pay attention to your body and be careful.

I guess i'm just pretty hard on myself when i do molly, though i drink a lot of water and fill myself with supplements (like magnesium), afterward i still come down hard if i don't blaze. Just taking a high dose i guess. I rail & pop so i'm basically infested with the stuff.

Yeah i guess it's really all about the dose. thanks for adding some controversy haha :) it's like me & mdma, the more i take.. shittier the comedown. i'm only doing tops 3 blots today so i'll probably be good.

thanks for all your answers D:!!
 
And LSD comedown is like the midpoint to the experience. You Drop, it kicks in, you trip serious balls and have a magical time. It lasts so long that by the time you come down you don't really mind, its not like a horrible depressing drop from Awesome to below average. You then start integrating the experience and coming to terms with everything that just happened, and realize all the amazing things you figured out. You have an awesomely pleasant afterglow for 12-24 hours. LSD <3
