Those Who Have Taken Extraordinarily High Doses

[tastethealex]

I cant say I have ever taken a super high dosage of anyone psychedelic and achieved a significant high dose experience. I have taken relatively large doses of multiple psychedelics at the same time though and achieve such experiences.

I forget what fear is, I just cant find being afraid logical. It will only cause more trouble and make things harder on me. Time vanishes. self vanishes. I embrace that we are all just compiled of various energies gathered together to form complex structures.

I usually end up sitting or standing in the same place for hours on end because my thoughts are way to deep and complex to handle concentrating on my physical self. often times lost in visuals that make it hard to understand the true reality I am in. when people talk to me it is usually followed by a long blank stare as i process and analyze the meaning behind every word that comes out of their mouth, then reform it and analyze the meaning of the statement as a whole. Next I need to think of a fitting response and a way to summarize everything, so I don't give them a speech for something that can be answered in 1 word. By this point people usually walk away or say something like "man, you must be on a good one!" Now if they have managed to stick around they probably forgot what they even asked me by the time I respond.

It is really too hard to fully explain what I was going through. for a while I was questioning my reality and wondering if i was the memory of an inanimate object.

It's makes for a good story but your brain only has so many receptors. The trips don't just keep getting furthur and furthur out. So all the people who go on about "I was looking at the arse of God for 8 hours" have very vivid imaginations.

Disagree (surprise surprise! :D).

Highest LSD dose for me was just over 5mg's.

^ that's a whole hell of a lot of lucy. are those major doses of lsd just a bit dangerous physically? I've read stuff about coma, etc, but idk the validity.

 

[djmrselfdestruct]

5 mgs? omg! i d say it s not harmfull physically but it can give you a shock, so you stop breathing for example, because you forgot during the flash how to breath ... just thinking myself into that situation ...

I imagine the only danger is psychological (in my mind, a much more severe risk then physical). Overdose on LSD is very difficult; but possible by some accounts.

That said, I took that dose at a time when I had a high tolerance to psychedelics. Not all that long ago actually; by and large, it quenched my thirst.

Physically, the most noticeable side effect felt slightly like intoxication on amanita muscaria; drooling, sweaty, rather red-skinned and almost feverish...A lot of peripheral stimulation too, and this dose kicked in exceptionally fast and lasted for an excpetionally long time.

I did encounter some very very odd things, which I have posted here, but its barely worth recalling. Something about the number 11 and the nature of god. IE. the usual :D

So has your brain got an infinite number of receptors willow? If so we'd best pickle it for research after you're gone...

Most i've ever had was a full on 8 grams or so of mushrooms and it was far overboard, the intoxication was heavy and my body was confused and felt really on top of me at that level, a friend and I (he had 6 or so grams, basically equivanlent regarding his lower bodyweight) and we spent 80% of the trip just squirming in the sand staring at the clouds as they mercilessly transformed into faces that simply did NOT approve... lol

Then on the way back (walking a loaded public beach...good call right?) I was becoming very dazed and for a moment mistook the scenery for that of an amazonian beach with tropical trees and dogs running around, people huddling around fires and people sharpening and working with wooden tools, as one of these jungle women ran up to me and started announcing her language at me my "actual" friend called to me and asked "what are you doing just standing there, come on!' and I blinked hard and saw a normal canadian beach again...

*blink...blink*

very rarely do I find myself actually in another world all together! usually it's just a dream like feeling or cascade over the normal scenery, this time the whole thing flipped on me! we went back to the cabin and squirmed the rest of the trip off with some very visual yoga sessions and some forced eating.

i've found that I have a sweet spot with mushrooms and its around 4-5 grams of them but i'm becoming traveled enough to tell the difference in quality at this point as well so trip doses do vary, one of my hardest trips was on 2.5 grams, but all my massive doses I find myself less receptive and more clinging to things than smaller yet elicited trips

ive taken an extraordinary amount of LSA by mistake, easy to eye out a wrong dose via exctraction from seeds.
By extraordinary, i mean REALLY fuckin high. I tripped harder than i did on 4 tabs of high quality blotter, even after i hit salvia while peaking.

I started coming up like on a normal trip, then i realized i had taken WAAAYYY too much when i never peaked, and just kept escalating and escalating./
My legs had the worst cramps 30 mins in i couldn't even walk. i managed to stumbled to my bed (tie die bed sheets), and tumble onto the covers, and managed to get my hand to tap on my iphone ihome shuffle. Spent the next 20 hours in my bed, eyes closed, feeling as if i had no body. I was just an intelligance, confusivly scrambled and incoherent, floating amongst the craziest CEV's known to man. complete ego death, complete death of personality, and all personification. all i was was an entity
