If someone was looking for a interesting trip alone without to many abstract distractions what would be the more introspective and better to trip alone on?
 
depends what you are looking for... lsd is more body and shrooms is more visual i would rather do lsd but if you want to see more crazy shit go with shrooms
 
^What exactly do you mean by "lsd is more body"- to me, its way more heady and thoughtish :) I would go for mushrooms, simply for the shorter duration.
 
my personal choice would be mushrooms, i've never tripped alone on LSD but i have on mushrooms more than once, its pretty introspective but at the same time a lot of musing about life and etc goes on, but i highly reccomend it!

yeah shorter duration, but id have to agree with the post above yours that its more body high than mushrooms and less "thoughtish" on acid i feel like i lose a few braincells vs. shrooms making me feel like i grew another frontal lobe. At least for me
 
Awesome we're making up new adjectives- thoughtish and whatnot- most excellent. :D Personally, I get a dramatic body load on mushrooms that mkaes it uncomfortable to lie down comfortably (lolwutlol:)) yeah. Each to their own; or maybe even both together? ;)
 
I've never tripped on mushrooms alone, but I have on acid a few times. I would recommend if you trip on acid that you remove all distractions. Don't get caught in front of the mirror for too long, but do peak. Sit and feel and watch. There are few things better.
 
For me, acid is exponentially more chill (even very high dose acid after the peak is extremely chill). If I have acid + music, there's not a lot else I need.

Mushrooms feel too bizarre to do alone, at least for me.
 
I find my greatest trips ive ever had have been on LSD Alone in high doses around 20 + blotters . Just totally earth shattering experiences that ill never forget. Mushrooms are great too for tripping by yourself but i find that i cant take High doses of shrooms without getting a horrible bodyload. I save my shrooms for lower doses most times for days out with friends . Tripping by yourself is great you get to dive so deep without distractions :D
 
never done shrooms alone, but i have done acid alone many times and i love it. It's pretty awesome to be able to be in ur head by urself the whole time, with no feedback from others. it gets pretty crazy and introspective.
 
Personally I wouldn't trip alone, it's much more fun with other people. The only true bad trip I've had was on mushrooms by myself, I was just depressed and very lonely. Acid is a longer duration, however it is much easier on the ego and the visuals are stronger (for me anyway). Just have some valium handy.
 
Mushrooms in general are much harder to handle for me...much more ego-crushing and mind-bending than LSD (at least under ~350 mikes). 3.5g of mushrooms is as intense as about 250mcg of LSD, in my opinion.

I have ALWAYS liked tripping on LSD alone more than tripping on mushrooms alone.
LSD does last a lot longer, though (so if you are in a bad state it won't end as fast as mushrooms would)...and if it's your first time dosing alone I would recommend less than 200 mikes.

I do trip on both substances alone from time to time...but I would say for a first timer, a low dose of LSD (under 200 mikes) alone would be more fun than shrooms.

Things can get confusing or even weird on LSD sometimes...but I have never known that I was going to die on LSD, only mushrooms (due to the complete shattering of the ego). I also find the shroom trip to be a bit gloomier and more "serious and spiritual" than LSD, hands down. LSD is more psychoanalytical and more recreational, in my opinion.

Different people have different opinions. Like, my friend LOVES eating mushrooms alone. Smoking n,n-DMT is always cool alone %)

For me it's dose dependent. High dose mushrooms can induce profound confusion and outright delusions (the classic example being, I'm going to die/I'm already dead); high dose LSD is much more clear-headed. So at high doses, I'd much prefer LSD. But at lower doses I might prefer shrooms, as LSD is more verbal for me.
 
LSD. Mushrooms have their special place but if you're not used to tripping alone, acid would be my choice. It's easier to guide the experience and is generally more positive. Mushrooms have more of a tendency to get head-screwy and put you in negative thought loops of despair that are nearly impossible to get out of if you take a high dose and get rooted into it good. Mushrooms have a shorter duration but LSD is just more positive and easier to guide IMO
 
I find mushrooms to be 10x more introspective than LSD. So if you are looking to really dive deep into your mind I feel mushrooms will serve you better.
 
interesting one, it really depends. I find acid easier to handle, and a more useful tool for thinking alone. Mushromms feels more physical and messy for me and makes me feel a bit of a slobish and useless alone, which usually ends in boosting the trip with something else, or drinking a fair bit which is'nt great for the positive effects. I'd say acid, but i prefer it in general!
