Wouldn't you like to know?
I'm dropping acid for the first time on Halloween, and pretty excited. In terms of psychedelics I've previously done mushrooms and Salvia, so I think I'm prepared enough in terms of what to expect. Now, I only have two tabs, and I'm deliberating on whether to take both or just one. On the one hand I don't want to take too little and feel nothing, because I would consider it a waste and acid isn't as cheap or easy to find as other drugs. On the other hand, a piece of advice keeps playing in my head when I think about it: "one can always take more of a drug, but one can never take less." So which should it be?
 
The ONE thing you don't want to do is take too much LSD your first time. Not pleasant. You can always redose later. Also, it lasts a long time so try to dose 1-2 hrs before you go to where you want to be going and then when you go you'll be golden. If not, then redose. But bear in mind it could be DOx sold as LSD, which would take ~3 hrs to kick in and may give you an asskicking if you redose before that.
 
Yea there really isn't. I recently got a few tabs sold to me as LSD, but when it made my tongue numb I was fairly certain it wasn't LSD. Later found out it was 25c-NBOMe. LSD is odorless and tasteless, so it really shouldn't taste like anything, besides the blotter paper, but in no way should the blotter paper be bitter or taste like a chemical(you should be able to tell a chemical from ink) Besides that, any idea of what it could have been would have to be speculated after the fact, based on duration, taste, etc. It's hard to tell, though. It'd be a good sign if the paper didn't taste like anything at all.
 
Not necessarily, you should be able to spit most of it out, actually. But why would you spit out perfectly good drugs, even if it's not acid?
 
I personally would never redose on LSD. The tolerance builds up literally right after it kicks in, and if you only have 2 tabs you'd be wasting one to take it later. Redosing on LSD extends the high, it wont intensify until you wait like a week after the onset of the first dose. Even if they are very strong tabs, the max dosage per tab is likely 100ug, but they probably aren't max potency tabs. (What i'm saying is no matter how much acid is on two tabs, it's probably not going to be too much) - Personally, I would recommending taking two to a friend who has never done it. If you've taken shrooms then you know what you're in for more or less. And an LSD trip is more controllable than a shroom trip as far as my experience goes.

My general rule of thumb with psychedelics is the opposite of what you'd say for opiates or stimulants. That is, take a little more to ensure that you are actually going to trip and not waste a night. Plus if the one tab is too weak, you'll have essentially wasted both, because redosing will just prolong what you got.
 
Why would I eat perfectly unknown and sketchy drugs, even if not doing so might potentially be a waste?
Maybe others would say that it's sketchy and harmful, and I may get flamed for this, but here's both ways to look at it.

Drug dealers are cheap, especially ones trying to pass some shitty psychedelic as LSD, so, why would they want to give you too much of whatever it is? They want to save every little ug or mg or w.e they're dosing you with. Then again, if they're that cheap, maybe they haven't invested in a scale or didn't care enough to know what they were doing. Then we have the point of what it could be. As far as I'm aware of, and I'm probably missing something, there's only a couple things that can be put on a blotter and passed as LSD. 25x-NBOMe or some DOx. Again, I'm probably missing something. But besides that, it could even be absolutely nothing on the blotter. The DOx would suck if it was too much and it lasted for ~18-28 hours. So that's one thing. But who knows. Just the way I look at it.
 
That really isn't a wise presumption^ It could be anything from potent benzos to way too much NBOMes or DOxs... Your best bet concerning the legitimacy of the tabs is to ask anyone else who has taken them if it was legit or not.
 
I know one kid who has taken them multiple times but he is 15 years old and I'm pretty sure he's a sociopath, so he may not be the most reliable source of information. I think I'll just take one for the fist time and if I don't feel anything, so be it.

Doubt anyone would try to pass a benzo, that wouldn't make much sense.

Why is buying LSD one of the sketchiest things someone can do? I go through this exact same thing every time I buy a tab.
 
Even if they are very strong tabs, the max dosage per tab is likely 100ug, but they probably aren't max potency tabs.

Got to be careful with this, you can easily put 200 ug or 300 ug on a tab if you want to... Just use bigger tabs.

If its LSD that you haven't tried before, best HR advice is to take just one. Unless you plan on staying at home all day where no one will care if you go crazy.
 
True, i guess one 1/4 unit could theoretically have over a milligram of LSD on it but... ya never know. Those would be pretty bomb.
 
Doing LSD for the first time on Halloween? lol... bon voyage ;)

The tabs I currently use are 150ug each. It all depends on how the original formulation was diluted that determines the strength.

I don't think bitterness will really tell you if it's LSD or not. I've had some bitter LSD tabs before. The bitterness is determined by the preservative.

If you're worried about taking too much, you can re-dose within 90 minutes. After that, more has little effect.
 
I would recommend starting with 1 tab. Personally I'm really sensitive to LSD and the first time I tripped I over did it. It turned me off all psychedelic drugs for a long time, I'd say the better part of two years. Really it was one of the most terrifying moments of my life, and a lot of it I can't remember. I couldn't understand anything anyone was saying to me and it was impossible for me to communicate. In my mind I knew what was happening and all I could think was that I was losing my mind and I never would be normal again. While I'm completely fine now, it took me a few weeks to feel "normal" and then for a long time I was scared to trip.

Since then the first 5 times or so after that I only ate one blotter and each experience was much better. I've tripped with friends who will eat 5x more than me and we'll still have similar experiences and come down around the same time. Until you know how it effects you personally, I would really proceed with caution. It's also going to be Halloween too so be extra careful and make sure you have a plan and place to chill. Since you're experienced with mushrooms I'm sure you'll be able to handle yourself, even if you did decide to take both at once but stay safe man and I wish you the best of luck.
 
The HR part of me will repeat your own thought: you can always take more, you cannot un-take a drug.

The part of me that grew up with mushrooms, and only got into acid in college and remembers my 1st acid trips, would say that it's *incredibly* easier to handle than mushrooms.
/I may be an exception in that regard, I dunno. But if I go much past 3 or 4g of shrooms, it's kind of easy for me to lose control (this has actually made me all but abandon shrooms for introspection and development purposes). With acid, i can eat it like candy and still don't lose my grip on at least *some* part of reality. High-dose mushrooms have, on several occasions, let me lose all grip with reality which, despite being pointless IMO for introspection/ego, is also a dangerous situation(potentially anyways. losing ANY grip on reality is rolling the dice IMO)
