Small park as setting?

Hello!

I will be taking LSD for my second time. My first experience was indoors at night, which felt really safe but I was dying to go out and explore. For my second experience, I really want to be in nature but there are only a few small parks in my city. I do not drive, and usually walk two hours to get to a really nice park. I was thinking of going to a park that is a 30 minute walk away from my home, and taking LSD once I get there. However, the park is very small and the "woods" behind it are also small and filled with litter, though I have many good memories there. Despite those disadvantages, do you think that this could be a good setting? It's as close to nature as I can get. Also, I will have to walk another 30 minutes with my boyfriend to his house, where we'll stay for the rest of the night. I'm a little scared about that walk, because it is on a busy street and I always get bad vibes from the people walking on it. Thank you so much!
 
Can be disturbing being around strangers when you're tripping. You need to be on a comfortable dose.
 
Thank you! I took one tab my first time, and am going to take one again, but my friends keep saying that this is like 3 tabs compared to the LSD that I took before.
 
A park will be a good place for a little while and it's good you have a safe place to return to if things go bad. Is your boyfriend dosing too?

Just be prepared to run into strangers and don't do anything that would bring unwanted police attention to yourselves.

Can you get home quickly if people are there?
It can really fuck with you're trip having random strangers around.
With that being said it should be a nice area, I love playgrounds when I'm tripping, this one in my hometown had like a big wide teeter totter like thing that could fit about three people across, and there was a spring in the middle to keep it stabilized so kids didn't slam other kids into the ground, so I would always get my friends to launch me into the air with it
 
On one of my high dose trips I went to a forest preserve with a close friend after tripping at my house for about 2 1/2 hours. It was very enjoyable, the lake and the trees were so amazingly beautiful and incredibly intricate patterns would form inside the leaves of trees. One of my best trips I've ever had, and I learned a lot about myself during it too. I had tripped about 10-15 times before that so I did have more experience. In fact, the first hours at my house were what I consider now to be my first negative thought loop during a trip or a "bad" trip. The change of setting helped tremendously. My friend and I were able to ignore the strangers easily, but not saying this would be the case for you; psychedelic reactions vary widely.

It's awfully hard to judge the dose of LSD tabs, but if you really believe that your new tab is much more potent than the last one, you might want to consider 1/2-ing or 3/4-ing it instead of taking the whole thing. My girlfriend is more or less fine on a 100 mcg dose, but I've seen her go all-out crazy on 200. When taking LSD in a public place, it's best to take a dose you know you're comfortable at rather than trying a new, higher dose.

That said, I've tripped in a small park before and I think it's a great setting.
 
I say don't take your trip in a place if there's half an hour of bad vibes between where you take your acid and where you're staying.

Also I question that you really can't get out if town and into nature. Maybe it would require planning but you can do it if you want.
 
as long as you feel in control, many unusual settings are actually quite nice. i tripped in a small park too and had a nice time, just have a plan b in case you get bad vibes. dont be all heroic on your dosing and it will be fine.
 
Whatever you do, do not call the police for "help" if you're having a bad time.
 
The first time I tripped (on mushrooms) I went to a park with a lot of people there. I had friends with me, one of which was also tripping and two other ones who were sober. That helped, they guided things along a bit since we were acting a bit like playful children. It was easy to feed us non-sense and fool us, just like children.
Get trustworthy people to do this, you need people who are copathetic and who understand how sensitive tripping people can often be.

Whether you will be okay by yourself depends on level of experience among other things. It helps to have trips under your belt, preferably ones in which you experimented a bit (responsibly) with set & setting.
 
My quick tip here, if your going to go out, get some beer. Personally I wont touch LSD without an undrinkable amount of booze on the side. I find it smooths out the paranoia and makes the trip more enjoyable. Its easier to control (this may be experience though), which is good when your having to talk to straight people, plus when your pissed you have a reason to be acting "odd".

And if you drink enough you can generally knock yourself out for that "cheap dance video" phase at the back end of the trip and get a bit of sleep in, otherwise that shit is gonna keep you up all night.

All in all, the best thing to do is keep away from people, your tripping, you are totally twatted and you probably wont look too far away from it either. Stick with your mates, have your trip, a few quiet beers / spliffs, and laugh your fuckin ass off and enjoy yourself.

I've been out and about tripping loads of times, but trust me, its far better when your holed up in a house with your mates, nice and safe. The only thing you have to worry about is who's gonna roll the next spliff and running out of beer - not who's gonna deal with someones dad when you bump into him outside the chippy. Or when your mate falls in the river :D "it's steeper than it looks is that mate"

Whatever you do stay safe, main priority is to wake up in the morning. I shouldn't need to say this but it does not make you invincible, I think I'm unstoppable after an acid and 10 pints. I've literally been squared up to some meat hook wanting to kick the shit out of me and I've just been stood there winding the guy up some more and laughing at him and my mate has had to diffuse the situation and save me from a kicking. I'm only ever like this on the acid alcohol combo, weird, I blame the booze on that, however, I am not violent on just the booze either. Just the booze and acid makes me feel like superman.

Personally if you want go experience the great outdoorrs, just go for a walk round the block outside your house. It will provide PLENTY of adventure for you and there is a safe place to go if it gets out of hand, which it almost certainly will.

Or you could go camping up in the hills... thats always a winner, just dont sit there staring at the fire all night :)
 
I like tripping in parks, it can suck when random strange people come up and start talking to you..8(

I also hate walking on the sides of busy roads when tripping it totally ruins my nice mental state.
 
I say enjoy the nature, just don't be a slave to your ideas of what "nature" should look like. Nature can be indoors or on Main Street. You are totally capable of staying still or changing locations even on a strong hit of L. Don't fall to pieces is something small happens. If you aren't actually carrying more drugs, you have nothing to worry about. If a stranger sees you smiling or laughing, worst case scenario is that they'll think you're on drugs. As long as you don't tell them about it, it's all Gsus. I find a way to disarm strangers and calm myself is to give a casual "hello" when they pass by. It gives you a degree of control and lets them know you're halfway normal. It signals you have no reason to be avoiding people, that you belong where you are.

Also, take the LSD before you leave, not when you get there. You don't want to sit around waiting to trip. It is much nicer to discover your destination in coincidence with discovering the effects of the drug. It will add direction to the trip. Bring something to occupy yourself, like a journal, headphones, basketball, etcetc. Don't want to get bored. Plus the objects can become your friends. Bring your cell phone but turn it off. If your boyfriend is coming with, bring a blanket and just mell out and talk to him. You can go home anytime.

Enjoy.
