Then it's time to sit back and have a think. :)

(I'm assuming you mean first weekend off drugs, if not..disregard).

Yep. Still haven't tripped since then. I think I just need something different from the experience. Nothing too deep or insightful. Just vivid, interesting, bright, beautiful, fun.

4-HO-MiPT is piquing my interests at the moment.
 
I've been tripping every week on some bomb white on white acid, my tolerance fades very quickly. Occasionally I do HBWR seeds or morning glory if I can get my hands on it. I used to do DXM once a month but gave up very quickly on that.
 
I do it about every 6 or 8 weeks whenever I get a break from assignments or a long weekend.... When I was younger and had all the time in the world I would do it every weekend oh it was so much fun lol.

I prefer to do 2c-e these days to LSD though I just think it's cleaner and stuff probably only do acid 4 or 5 times a year...
 
How often I trip really depends on my emotional state. Sometimes once a week but sometimes it's much longer than that.
 
To me, the only true trip I think of when I use that term is either shrooms or acid. Years ago, I would trip on average about 3 times a month, nearly all LSD, the odd shroom trip. Fast forward till the internet made buying wet shrooms very easy and it was all legal and I was tripping more than once a week for a year. Then that source vanished but luckily I was able to obtain dry shrooms more or less straight away, but fewer opportunities meant it was averaging one trip a month. The expense was also a factor. LSD was unobtainable (ok someone will say they always got it but overall that was the picture).

Then suddenly just recently it was everywhere and it was back to a mixture of both that and shrooms, possibly on average twice a week. One week I had lsd for two days solid, topping up as it began to wear off, then 3 more trips during the week and another the following weekend. These were all pushing the barriers further and further - the most being the equivalent of 8 decent trips taken at one go (accidentally).

This led to me becoming very unstable and locked in a nightmare world of HPPD. Eventually I was taken into hospital for a detox when my opiate meds (prescribed for RA) went out of control. Now everything is back to normal and I'm not sure how frequently I'll trip. I haven't at all since going into hospital. My priority is really getting back to work and staying steady and getting something more useful out of life.
 
I trip as often as I can, sometimes every few weeks, sometimes once a week, rarely a couple of times a week. I have a project I'm using all this psychedelic goodness for.

LOL. I wish I had this excuse. I would like to be first in the queue to help with this project by offering to trip for you as much as you need =D
 
samadhi_smiles if this means strong or topped up and prolonged doses of lsd or shrooms, then please be careful. I was recently rather arrogant in losing respect for the drug and paid a heavy price. HPPD is not nice, believe me.

Edit

Are you okay now? I saw that you were having a rough time.

Sorry Xorkoth, the new page meant that I missed this as referring to me. Thank you for such a wonderful, caring enquiry - it's the surprising out-of-the-blue responses like this that have got me through the whole thing. Some people just seem completely insensitive to what I was going through, to the point of making it worse, but tremendous support has come from all sorts of places. I'm just sorry it's taken me this long to get back on Bluelight. The trouble is, when you're in the throes of the nightmare mental prison which is HPPD, and also still struggling to reconcile "real" life with a trip which has accidentally gone further than you ever believed possible and showing very strange reactions to what would not normally be triggers, you just end up very dysfunctional.

In the end a spell in hospital detoxing from everything was what halted a frightening downward spiral towards complete disintegration. If nothing else, lying resting or asleep for a week gave my mind and body a chance to recover. I even go back to work next Monday which is an event I began to think would never happen.

I just feel really guilty that it took me a month and a half to even see what you wrote :'(

^ hey thanks for watching out for me man <3

I'm good though I've done this many, many, many, many times. Its the way I like tripping best. Tripping for me is like shedding coils for a snake. Its best done if its stretched out over a week of intense tripping, then you have a 2-3 month break. Then again...stretch...grow...expand...pull back...integrate...repeat...

I'm down to 1x per 3 months or so. The trips are far more profound with some good integration, and a bit of recovery time...
 
More than once every six months but typically less than once a month.

The feelings of anxiety I usually feel during the come-up on most psychedelics keep me away for a short while after each trip. I don't know if I'll ever get used to them. Sometimes I have thoughts of "this was a bad idea" or "this stuff just isn't for me" during an experience, but I always find myself going back. :p
 
^ Lol, DMT for you? =D

It's a project in my mind though; I'm trying to solidify my personal Wall, I've got a thread in TDS about it but it's not a bad thing, I just figured the thread belonged in there... feel free to come along for the ride though! ;)
 
Generally a couple of times a year. Although the last year my work has been really hectic and there just hasn't been the right occasion for it. LSD is generally my preference, though I find the length to be harder to deal with these days than when I first started out.
 
I think I might trip tonight - shrooms perhaps, since I start work at 6am tomorrow and don't want to be still tripping. :D
