Want to get some facts straight about LSD before deciding for myself.

acid is great stuff. it's a far stronger agent in general and a much headier trip than something like 2c-b which is more just visuals and very mild euphoria. tryptamines like acid (cursorily put) and shrooms will give you more of that psychedelic conscious-altering which is what makes it so great but also makes proper set and setting much more critical than with phenethylamines like 2c-b or mdma. be sure you're in a good mood when you drop, nothing worrisome on your mind, at a location where you feel safe and comfortable (e.g. at home). that is to say, it messes with your lucidity much more than something like 2c-b while not having that strong "push" towards a positive mindset like as with mdma. tryptamines are way more self-directed. if you have a strong and positive mind, you can work with the drug and experience great things, but if you are unprepared or of poor mindset things can go sideways on you (bad trip).

start small and avoid re-dosing your first time through. that said, it lasts fairly long, so you probably won't have that compulsion...

if you suffer from a mental illness e.g. schizophrenia or bipolar disorder or have family history of same, i'd tread lightly, maybe avoid, certainly proceed at your own risk... i've never seen anyone have an out and out psychotic break or get violent and destructive from doing lsd, though i have seen people turn themselves into sort of a space cadet from doing way too many hallucinogens over a long period of time. but, again, generally it's just a window into your deeper consciousness; if you are a violent, disturbed person you may act violent or disturbed while under the influence of lsd, if not, then you probably won't.

cannabis provides a nice synergy and can help if the trip goes sideways, it's worth having some around if you smoke. also, a little bit of some benzo may help you get to sleep when you're ready (or abort ~80-90% of the magnitude of the trip if it starts to go south on you); this agent can be somewhat long-lasting; i don't like to trip unless i have at least a bit of pot around to take the edge off.

be sure that you can trust your source; a lot of NBOMe compounds are being passed off as acid these days; while these are interesting compounds they are active at VERY low dosage levels and they do not have the high therapeutic index (active dose divided by life-threatening dose; the higher the safer) as does LSD.

if you want to get a little "taste" of what the trip is like at a bit milder level, eat maybe 10-15 packs of heavenly blue morning glory seeds and experience LSA; it's less intense but has some of the same character of trip. of course, do your research before proceeding with this one as well!!

do lots of research a priori (hit those erowid trip reports), be safe and enjoy! i think everyone should experience acid at least once in a lifetime.
