I love LSD in all doses. Small, medium, and large. It is such a versatile drug that it blows my mind (no pun intended). Whether I take a small, medium, or large dose purely depends on the amount of time I have available. These days, I rarely have 14+ hours to myself alone and the peace of mind of not being disturbed during the trip so I usually stay in the medium to small-ish dose range. Small doses are great for a night out socializing with some light drinking.
With a small-ish dose, I get the amphetamine speediness without actually taking any amphetamines which is great. I am up and about, lucid, thoughts are slightly altered, my mood is usually humorous, and no one can even detect I am on acid unless I tell them.
With a medium dose (hard to quantify but I am talking about 250ug to 450ug), I can compact the full trip within about 8-9 hours and be relatively sober after that. This is what I prefer to do with friends who are experienced with psychedelics but would never venture into the high dose range out of fear. Again, it's all time-dependent, if I have about 10 hours to myself and the right setting and set then I'll do a medium dose. Usually with this level of dose, I prefer to be not in a social situation but rather at home or outdoors (beach, park, etc.) or at a festival where there are not much in terms of social requirements to act/behave a certain way. I like the acid to take me where it wants to w/o interference from external stimulus.
With high/heroic doses (>500ug), I need to make sure I have about 16 hours to myself, no impending task to complete, assurance that I will not be bothered, and a relaxed setting preferably inside a home. Also, I usually prefer a sitter though I have not always followed this preference. The main thing with high doses is to make sure you are in a safe environment. I wouldn't want to be walking to the supermarket or running around town on this. Since it takes so much time though, I almost never get a chance to do this. In fact, the last time I did a high dose was in '98 I believe when I was still in college and had ample of time between sessions to have fun/explore/do as I wish. This was 10 hits of liquid dropped by myself on a sugar cube. The acid itself was quite decent and I had good feedback from experienced people who had tried this stuff. It actually went quite well - I tripped solo, locking myself in my apartment with some tunes in the back ground and plenty of weed at hand. It went really well and I had a good time. The visuals were amazing and I was quite jacked. However, it wasn't something that I felt I couldn't handle. It was very smooth with no issues. With this and other psychs I have used since, I believe I tend to be a hard head and able to take large doses with out too much issue.
So yeah, I love LSD in all its doses.. what a fuckin kick ass drug! Thanks Albert!
I do feel a high dose LSD trip coming up soon... it's been too long and I want to experience that mind state again.
