Trip Frequency Safety

Hey I was wondering what the safe frequency to eat mushrooms and drop acid.
I like both, and have access to both very frequently now. I used to only dose when doses were available, which was at max once a month. I'd shroom about the same (except a month where I was eating mushrooms a lot).
I am under the assumption that it is fairly safe (for your brain) to take these substances about once every two weeks at max, not alternating like acid one week and mushrooms the next.

How often can I eat conventional psychedelics and still preserve my full cognitive function. If you have a source for your info that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much!
 
I tripped on serotonergic psychedelics around 14 times over a summer of 12 weeks with no long term side effects noted. At some point psychedelic tolerance mandates that a break is taken as well as the experience becoming less and less special.
 
I've been doing acid pretty much weekly for a little while with little to no ill effects. Just general stuff like occasionally being a bit spacey, and every now and then some very odd thoughts but nothing serious at all.
 
To some extent, this is a personal decision. Tripping more often will diminish the uniqueness of the experience and intensify any lingering aftereffects, but how quickly these changes set in and how much they bother you is ultimately a matter of individual chemistry and personal preferences. I tend to trip 3-4 times a month, with a few more trips on top of that when I happen to go to a big festival, and over time, I plan to taper this down. For comparison, I only roll a couple times a year, so if you're curious about my overall risk preferences, you can use this as a basis for comparison.
 
It also depends on the drugs. The more selective ones (DOC, DOI, 25C/D/I-nBOME/some of the 2C's) will develop tolerance rapidly and lose their efficacy rapidly with too smaller gaps between trips. The more broad spectrum psychedelics can be used with greater frequency, but generally I'd keep it below once a week myself. I'm doing DOC about 2 weekly at the moment and I've noticed no significant tolerance.
 
last summer i tripped every weekend, and smoked a lot of weed. i noticed that i would start tripping when i smoked and didnt even take any psychedelics. also i started getting symptoms of hppd. things like pattern movement, trails behind moving objects, etc. i stopped for a couple months and all that went away. personal experience says once or twice a month max for greatest enjoyment and minimal side effects
 
I trip mushrooms twice a month once every 2 weeks sometimes 3 or ill combo them with another compound, sometimes ill break longer than three weeks aswel. I dont have any negative side effects I have great memory eye sight hearing health etc, may have hppd but it doesnt bother me I actually like it things look really pretty all the time, iv been really learning how to use them as a tool and they improve my overall happiness for days after the trip even weeks depending on the trip, I get alot of benefits from them imo. Actually the only thing iv really noticed a day or two after I trip my speech will be a little off but it goes back to normal fairly quickly. Iv also havent had tolerance build up, I trip pretty nicely every time, occasionally ill trip back to back weekends if I feel like im up for it and ill still trip nicely.

Take it easy everyone
 
the information you have is correct, it is safe to do once every 2 weeeks-a month depending on your body chemistry. in my research i have discovered that lsd has no physical long term damage, but doing shrooms in like 4 years of drinking on your liver. Mentally i have found that you are safe with that if you have a strong mind. ive met ppl when have a weak mind and after doing acid a few times they aren't they same. But, if you feel you have the mental capability which it seems you do, your doing it all right and safe to stay "sane" and all there. hope i helped at all
