bears dancing in my head

Two nights ago I got TRASHED on L harder than ever, i suspect that someone dosed the crap out of me because i've eaten 10 strips to my head and NEVER got so spun. I was at a festival with a lot of old dead heads and i finally understood what the "Family" was. I was sitting by the campfire listening to people drum, rap, play guitar, talk, and laugh. My vision was colored by rainbows and i could see when i closed my eyes a huge set of rainbow colored wings that seemed to be my own, and bright lightning bolts would split through my mind. Everyone that i was with could hear my thoughts as i analyzed the things i had done in my life that i was not proud of, and confessed my sins to god silently and felt surrounded by love and family in the most literal sense, as if everyone there knew me and accepted me regardless of my transgressions. I was TESTED and found to be honest, loving, and with great integrity and humility, and was appreciated for my character by my new family. I felt enveloped in love.

The experiance LSD gives is very spiritual, and if you fry, you'll KNOW right and wrong and hopefully be able to use the experiance to benefit your life.
 
I'm just piping in with this....when handling liquid it would probably be best to use gloves:)...no need for that forever reuptake.

The first time is fun, sure...but there is no need to go out and about accidently after recently tripping.

reading that makes me feel crazy.lol. but the thought of risk of spilling on yourself when your dropping animals doesn't arise until after.

Adverse effects of Lithium + LSD.

I was at a dinner tonight with family friends. Their 20something son of is considered the LSD-casualty poster boy, this was the first time I'd seen him since his snap which happened about two years ago and it's certainly not a pretty sight.

Apparently he has full-blown schizophrenia and has been heavily sedated ever since attacking his brother, to within an inch of his life. Many times through out the night he'd get up and walk around, mumbling to himself. At one point he just ran outside while his mother had to chase after him.

He was very into his drugs before the incident, but apparently the major trigger for his schizophrenia was combining a high dose of LSD with lithium, which he was using recreationally. (?!)

So, if anyone is on Lithium - recreationally or otherwise - and is planning on using LSD, please be very, very careful.

This guy is literally beyond redemption, anti-psychotics do nothing more than to quieten him down.

I know it's been mentioned many times, but please be very, very careful with your combinations. Many people consider the worst-case scenario of adverse LSD effects to be that they'll have to be placed on anti-psychotics for the rest of their life, but that isn't as simple as it sounds. Seeing someone I knew in their normal state reduced to this shell of a human is a definite shock.
 
Yeah, lithium is well-known to react dangerously with LSD. As willow mentioned, this has been covered. But thanks for the warning. I'm merging this into the basic LSD thread, as it's a bit of a different account of the interaction - I've not heard of the combination causing schizophrenia. Of course, your friend must have had it latent within him already. But still, it can never be said enough.

My condolences about your friend. :(
 
dose question

im an inexperienced psychedelic user and i am planning on tripping on acid for the first time soon. im not exactly sure of how much im going to take but i did have one question. i asked a friend if i could split 1 dose and just take half of a tab. he told me that i could but it might not be exactly half of a dose because it depends on where the lsd was dropped on it. is this true? im more asking can doses be heavier in spots? like can one half have most of the lsd and the other half have little to none?
 
hey guys! please tell me what you think of this scenario. my dead boy, usually sells me sheets at around 300 a pop. this usually consists of 15,000 mcg, i.e. 150 mcg a hit. i know this is infact true, because every time i purchase i watch both the crystal dissolved in solvent, and the actual laying of the blotter. however, this time my friend has informed me that it will be vials, i.e. liquid. this equates to 100 drops a vial (100 hits), and evidentally 200 mcg a drop!!! the price this time though is going to be 350. sound like a good idea ?

It is possible if LSD solution was added dropwise to the blotters, but AFAIK, more often the sheets are soaked in the solution to allow more even distribution between the tabs.

my first time i was scared and i actually only took half a hit....i didnt do much i just laughed a lot, IMO take 1 hit

That is true for weak hits, but for strong hits, one dose may turn out to be more intense than desired for inexperienced users. I would advise testing the waters before jumping in, unless the potency of the doses is known to be weak.

Yes and no. Usually the sheet is soaked in a solution (manually applying drops to every single blotter is time-consuming and wildly inaccurate too if you ask me).
In some cases the edges of the sheet are stronger, depends on the medium used and the way they were dried.
At one time a person I knew used thick sheets and actually applied a separate sheet with a print on top of those.
The top sheet was slightly smaller so they cut the protruding lower sheet strips off.
Those were immensely popular "party favors".

"Got strips?"=D

Noticeably stronger than the actual pieces-with-picture for commercial use.

Anyway IMO it's ok to take a relatively large dose the first time in a friendly set/setting.
Subactive doses however are an annoyingly frustrating waste of time and drugs.

If you're really afraid then don't take psychedelics.

In a friendly set&setting this shouldn't pose a problem.
Testing waters may prepare people for the temperature, but it won't help them swim.

I'm getting more than a bit fed up with the "lets scare people so they won't do anything bad" thing. It doesn't work.

Low intensity sucks, especially for first timers.
500mcg isn't hard to handle for people in a relaxed set/setting, but 100mcg is a total waste of resouces and time.

If people are destined to deal with their shit then by all means LET THEM.
Buddhist dogma is that you cannot deal with that stuff for them, and you cannot prevent it either.
In this rare case dogma is right. Karma is personal.

As I once told someone:"I don't need your fucking protection! I want to deal with my own karma as it is! Let the chips fall where they may coz they're MINE!"

I've had regrets over lots of things but definitely NOT about that one.
 
any advice for recovering from a hard trip?

I know it was stupid of me to do it, but I tripped off some super strong blotter 2 times within this week. The first time was 2 hits, then 3 days later i took roughly 2 1/2 hits. This was some really strong shit, not to mention I hadn't eaten any acid in at least 3 years. So my mind has been throughly blown 8o. I couldn't help myself from indulging in it; it had been such a long time since i ate any decent acid and this stuff practically came right to me.=D

I've probably done LSD like 2 dozen times in my life. This stuff is probably the strongest i've ever taken, which i can't complain but it's been damn near 24 hours since I last ingested any lsd. I'm not tripping anymore. I've gotten some sleep and eaten and drank lots of water and i still don't feel 'normal'.

So i guess my question is: is food/water, sleep and time the only thing that'll 'bring me back' ??? Would exercise help any? Or does none of that matter, and I am going to have to just ride this out?
 
Does chlorine react with lsd

UTFSE
Or read the past five posts
Or use your brain and research it.:X

Well YMMV, but for me 100mcg doesn't suck at all. While most of the times I'm more interested in higher doses, I absolutely love low dose LSD as well. I don't see anything wrong with recommending first timers to go low in the face of harm reduction, especially if they were the ones who brought up starting with half a hit in the first place.
 
After taking a low dose of LSD tonight I was surprised at how easy it was to handle.

Tolerance could be an issue, but it was quite nice.

LSD was always very rare and after my first few experiences it became equated with 12 hours of insanity.

Its VERY easy to get in over your head with LSD especially if a person isn't experienced. Its much better to start on the low side.
Its a bit like Goldilocks. I would rather take too little and be disappointed for 6-8 hours than too much and feel like I'm insane.

The most important thing that can't be stressed enough is to know the strength of your blotter. These days 40-80ug is fairly common but if they turned out to be 150-200ug and you took 3 based on past experience you could be in for a very rough ride. I made that exact mistake the second time I ever took LSD. Looking back 10 years that trip changed my life and I wouldn't change it for the world, but it could have been a lot worse.

On that note, maybe it was some suggestion from the psychotomemetic history of LSD, but the first few times I took it I was sure that I had gone insane and would never come down. I haven't got that feeling with other psychedelics.
 
LSD is not to be underestimated for sure. One of my friends had a serious bad trip with only one hit (and it was not more than around 100mcg either), which propelled him into a condition called psychotic depression. That was more than 2 years ago, and he is still on antidepressants and prone to have paranoid/delusional breaks every so often.

What I'm saying is, sure, some people might be disappointed by 100mcg, but for some people this may be way too much and something they will regret for their whole life. That's why a low startup dose is recommended for first timers. Better safe than sorry.
 
i would just like to say...

IM DOING ACID FOR THE FIRST TIME TOMORROW!
and i am soo excited. my guy said that one hit contained 130mcg, and its supposed to be really good.
im excited, but how long does the pupil dialation go for? im dropping around noon and ill have to be home around 11 at night, will i be able to function around my folks?
