Scared of doing LSD...

Your harddrive.
Hey everyone.

So quite a while ago, i did about 4 tabs of Luke browns, and it was amazing until, i got myself into a mind loop, ever since that day i've been scared/worried about doing it. A word kept on repeating on in my head over and over like glue, and if i tried to stop thinking about the word glue, i was still thinking about the word glue but just trying to stop it, and it would just repeat, its hard to explain sorry. But ever since that day i've been scared to do LSD, i can't get myself into the right mind set, and that mind loop fucked me so hard for at least 2 months maybe more. So i really want to be able to do LSD again, i don't want just not do it anymore, it opened my mind and made me experience so many things but i won't get into that. Should i try it again or just keep waiting until i'm completely comfortable about it. I'm a quite experienced user but that one trip just messed with my head. I just need your input or what would you do or advice or help anything would be sweet =)
Thanks for reading sorry for it being a little long and not making sense. ( i hope it did make sense lol)
 
...GLUE!

jk man. hope i didn't freak you out. 4 tabs is a pretty decent dose. things can get weird. it was the acid man. a thought loop is nothing to be scared of. you became "normal" again right? if you don't like what acid dose though, maybe it's not for you
 
Yeah a loop like that can be problematic, it's hard to get yourself out of that cycle once you're in it.
How long has it been since this happened? You said it bothered for you 2 months afterward, how much more time has passed?
 
I like mindloops like that, I've experienced it before and I know what you mean, one time I kept on repeating "Please, please let me think about something other than desktop's".

Like california said, how much time has passed since then? If you intend on tripping again, get yourself in the right mindset, maybe have a few friends there that you trust with your life, sit with them, smoke a couple joints maybe, have a laugh, and then all of you at once can drop together (When I went camping all the newbies wanted to see us with the tabs in our mouth, before they took theirs).

Maybe try a lower doseage, but if you want to take a higher dose than go for it. If you get caught in another thought loop, try and laugh about it, remember that you're only tripping and you're not going to go insane over glue, or whatever it may be. :)
 
That's happened to me before. Except it was a statement followed by a question: "I don't think a deer could jump that. You don't think a deer could jump that?" and it all resulted from me looking at my backyard fence and wondering...well, if a deer could jump over it. Except I got a little bit more creative with it and my mind turned it into music, and then I imagined just a trance...thing replacing all the words with beats to the syllables.

I didn't think much of it at the time, simply because I turned my looping into something creative.
 
Hmm, I was stuck in a thought loop my last trip now that I think about it, but it was in no way bad. I didn't try to fight it, I just kept thinking about it harder and harder lol. Just enjoy the trip, and let acid lead the way. Don't try to control it, that's where the problems arise.
 
Trip with friends...then thought loops are hilarious, we just keep laughing harder each time we repeat it until we can't stand it anymore and explode in psychedelic bliss.
 
I would wait until im comfortable personally. you might keep thinking about not thinking about this loop and idk it could mess with your head.
 
Just a suggestion...take it or leave it.

Maybe you should try using a different psychedelic like mescaline under the guidance of a shaman....You dont necessarily have to be religious to appreciate the role of a shaman. They can easily act as counselors who utilize myth and metaphor, even if you are more secular minded. It can be helpful to have someone who is grounded and can offer you support for a structured trip. For me its like therapy.

Barring that, I would suggest preparing yourself mentally and physically for a day or two before the trip....Go somewhere out in nature BEFORE the trip. Meditate. Eat only healthy foods, or maybe do a raw juice fast. Surround yourself with happy people. Do good things for others. Work on damaged relationships and do something kind for those people. Get to something you have been meaning to accomplish. Hopefully you will feel like you are on the right track and can be proud of yourself.

Shame and self loathing and poor health are all ingredients for a bad trip.
 
Maybe try taking 1 or 2 hits instead of 4 too..

But I would say not to force it until you feel ready. If you go into a trip with a lot of anxiety over the possibility of having a bad trip, you are much more likely to end up having one.
 
Something similar happened to me a while ago after a bad 2C-E + methylone experience. Taking a long break helped a lot, it slowly got better. Then after about 8 months, all of a sudden, instead of being scared by the thought of another trip, I wanted to revisit the psychedelic state again badly. And it was every bit as magical as I have hoped.

So as others have said, wait. You will know when you are ready again.
