Very disappointed with first LSD experience...

I've tried various RC's but very little in the way of 'conventional' psychedelics. Over the weekend, I finally got a chance to try LSD, in the form of a single tab given to me by a friend. I have no idea how old it was, it could have degraded somewhat I suppose?

Anyway, it was a very underwhelming experience. To me it felt almost identical to 2c-i (and I'm not a fan of 2c-i), except possibly a bit longer. Say if it was a weak hit, or if it had degraded somewhat, would a low-dose LSD experience feel so similar to 2c-i?

I'm still keen to try it again but in a much higher dose. I was very disappointed with the whole thing and was happy when it wore off around 6-7 hours after ingestion
 
Take 20mg of 2c-i and tell me 2c-i isn't intense.

Most of the time your not going to be going balls to the wall with 1 blotter unless you know the right kind of people, and even that is pretty uncommon.

Subjectively i consider the trip produced by 20mg of 2c-i to be along the lines of about 6 hits of average acid....

Now that being said, i have seen blotter that caused people to lose their shit in a hardcore way off one..... Occasionally a little bird will come through and feed people blotter in the hundreds of micrograms. And that is what i mean about the right kind of people....
 
mate if I had a gram of crystal i'd take it right now :)

jamaica0535 - I've had up to 40mg of 2c-i and still only had a moderate experience, about 5/10 i'd say on strength relative to my strongest trip (which was 4-aco-dmt). I do know that I have a very high tolerance, for everything really, and I can't explain why. So I wasn't expecting to be blown away by 1 tab, I was expecting a moderate experience, but the strength isn't what I'm unhappy about, it was its similarity to 2c-i.

It was so similar that I would say that I actually had 2c-i, except I know that you couldn't fit that kind of dosage on one tiny piece of blotter paper.
 
1 hit of lsd isn't very mind blowing. It might not even been a moderate dose, I took two hits my first time and I had a plus 4 trip. I've only found myself able to enjoy low does of LSD now that I've had high dose trips and have become really familiar and comfortable with the effects of LSD. I've never tried 2c-i so I can't compare the two but LSD is a pretty fragile molecule and it is easy to unintentionally damage a dose.
 
it must have been a pretty darn weak dose - acid should never wear off after just 6 hours.. my single blotter experiences have always been cool and lasted the full 12 hour duration..

i have never tried any 2c's to compare.. LSD has never underwhelmed me though.. but, i have never just eaten like 1/2 tab.. i often try for 2 hits of whatever kind.. if i trip i want it to be a strong trip because i don't dose often anymore..
 
Yea 1 hit probably was too weak. And low dose psychs tend to be stimulating imo.....so maybe that's why it felt similar to 2ci (since 2ci is stimulating at all doses)

Waat. 20mg is pretty weak to me. 30 mg on the other hand.....lol. 25mg is a nice median for me
 
You can not, at all say something like 20mg is like 6 drops. That is a load of crap. 2cx's all work differently on EVERYONE. 25mg of 2ci was the equivelant of having maybe one tab, for ME that is where as it was enough to completey floor my gf. If it takes 6 tabs to get you to that point, you must get your hands on some realy far down the chain tabs.

To the op, try 2 next time. It really isn't comparable to 2ci or any other phen for that matter. For most people I know it takes two to get them there. Don't let one disappointing experience stop you from trying it again. It has a he'll of a lot more magic to offer as opposed to all the rc's you have tried.
 
2c-i is nothing like LSD.

If you think 2c-i is like LSD than you should be questioning your so-called "LSD" source.

You're getting DOx, all DOx and 2c-X have trademark effects that mushrooms and LSD do not have.
 
1 hit of acid is nothing. Not many visuals, maybe a keener understanding of the world around you and a slight change in all your perceptions but in no way will acid (unless it's amazing acid) make you trip balls from one hit. Buy four or five from your friend then tell me acid is disappointing
 
It honestly sounds like a low-dose LSD experience. I had a few of those when I was younger and I always found low-dose trips uncomfortable and weird until they got to a certain threshold where it actually became a trip. Once I've had a lot of experience with a psychedelic, then I can enjoy low dose trips on them.

But yeah, a lot of tabs are pretty weak and 1 really isn't enough for almost anybody. Almost all the tabs I've ever gotten (which hasn't been many) haven't been potent enough for 1 hit to make me trip.
 
Thanks guys, particularly Xorkoth (as usual :D), i'll keep hunting for some more tabs or even some pure stuff if I can find it in this shit town!

I've always taken reasonably high-dose LSD (this is obviously dubious information, but to my knowledge I've never dosed under 200-250ug so I can't really comment on that). However, LSD should - or at least always has been for me - much more mentally psychedelic and altering than 2C-I, and much more euphoric. 2C-I was basically a visual hallucinogen, with little in the way of psychedelic mental effects, and it had an uncomfortable bodyload.

It is also possible that you slightly under-dosed the acid, and under-dosing psychedelics always feels uncomfortable, since you're noticeably altered but "not quite there yet" so that might resemble the 2C-I experience.

No. He has taken a low dose. Acid degrades very quickly and by the sounds of it he might not have even gotten it in foil, it might have just been handed to him as the tab.

2c-i and 2c-e are often said to be quite visually similar to LSD but "missing something" and also quite stimulating. At lower doses LSD will be like this too, as will a lot of other psychedelics.

Next time make sure the acid is stored properly, also maybe try 2 tabs next time if it's from the same person.
 
1 hit is very rarely a high enough dose to be mind-blowing. I hope that you don't abandon LSD just because of 1 weak experience.

But on the plus side, it's probably better to have an underwhelming first experience than to have one that completely fucks you up and scares you away from acid forever.
 
I'd just follow everyone's advice and take multiple tabs. I've had a trip from 1.5 tabs and had a pretty good time - but I guess they were strong tabs. I'd say that compared to a 2.5g mushroom trip, which is thoroughly enjoyable without being particularly intense.

LSD is a wonderful drug, I think you need to experiment some more. It seems you do have quite a high tolerance for things, maybe take 3 tabs next time?

Also... if you really had 1g of crystal it would be unwise to be so keen about ingesting.

Peace
 
If you've only ever done RCs and never conventionals, then you might be surprised by how similar they are, even though people who are used to both will say there is a massive difference.

I mean, they do share a LOT of similarities. A good 'cid trip really is beautiful, and is quite different from the 2c-x type of trip, but they're still both trips, and a trip is a trip is a trip.
 
Hmmm ok thanks guys, will definitely shoot for a bigger dose next time!
