Why do we do it?!?

Acid for me is a wonderful experience and I have been told I have a gift for taking people along on my trips with me. The power of suggestion is a brilliant thing and there has been many a time I've talked my friends through an adventure, wether it was playing with the pixies and faires or re-arranging the skyline.
I also think that setting, trust and dosage have a lot to do with it as well. You're much more likely to wig out if you are in a crowded place, with people you don't really trust than if you are in a deserted park with a group of close friends. And if you can't handle your acid very well make sure you're with somebody who can.
Our adventures this weekend could have ended up very scary If Chups and I did not know how to stay in the in between and be aware enough to watch out for the others.
IMHO acid is only for those with a strong mind and a strong sense of self, for me whilst it is so much fun, it is not a drug that should be toyed with.
Saying that I am a self-confessed acid fiend. I love the stuff, and have always found my trips to be amazing mind-expanding experiences.
If you have had a bad experience don't bag it straight away, look to the reasons behind it. You may find that the setting was wrong, that the people were wrong and you weren't emotionally or mentally strong enough for the experience. Perhaps once these factors are changed, you will try it again, and the revelations from the trip will blow you away.
Happy tripping guys, be safe and enjoy

I think its the same as most drugs. We all have bad experiences along the way. I can say I have had 'bad' experiences with ALL of my drugs.... except speed, the only bad thing is I sometimes get CRAP!
I dunno, Acid seems to be a very BIG love or hate thing. I havent taken acid for about 3-4 years, and have no desire to do so any time soon. I enjoyed the trips, but can think of better things to do!

Well, acid was the first drug i tried (apart from pot), my reason: I wanted to see cool shit.
Oh deary, it was quite a ride, intense, but well worth it.
As to why I keep going back because its just so damn interesting, and even it things do get a bit too fucked, i still have a good time. And i seem to be getting better at trippin, whether i'm more comftable with my new mates now, or i'm just used to it, i dunno.
But yeah, i havent had much mind expansion after my first trip, (long story short, set and setting was very fucked up from my perspective) i'm havin more fun everytime i take it

I gotta agree with PsychoKitten. Acid is my drug of choice and has been for years, since drugs appeared in my life.
There is just so much to see and do! Walking through Sydney is pretty much the most amusing thing you can do.
Highlights:
- You can just get stuck standing at the base of that giant australian flag in the harbour coz it just doesn't look out of place.
- The maccas under where the sega world was is just a complete affront to the senses(easy to lose it)
- Going to the casino building early evening they put caberet shows on in the outside foyer place near the fountains. For anyone who has been tripping through the city at the day, you know how just disgusted you are with the 'regular' business people at why they would want to look like they do and act happy... well think about why anyone would want to sit in an outside cafe listening to someone singing "It's a loverly night for a moondance". My lord, the four of us couldn't stop a constant laughter as hard as I could doesn't matter how much I tried not to for about 4 1/2 songs...
The two words I use to describe it to people is "Lunacy" and "Absurd". When you see shit, it is literally when you have lost yr mind.
SDB : Seeya later brain
SDB's BRAIN : Seeya!
SDB : When you coming back?
SDB's BRAIN : Depends.... if you have any more then not for a very long time
SDB : Yeah, okay... although I just decided to change my plans and see if I can find the treasure under the tartan grass behind the tree... Seeya!
SDB's BRAIN : *bye* *bye*
TREE : *thinking noise* ho ho ho
SDB[to TREE]: quiet, you'll wake the treasure....
TREE : *mischievious smile* la la la
And... so forth

Ludicrous speed... GO!
 
I hafta say that acid for me is like Mental Floss. Keeps ya brain clean in all the fiddly in between places. You examine yourself and the world and everything that happens to be philosphical. It fucks with ur head for 10 or so hours and then the horrid comedown ensues and you go...'Hmmm...was that really worth it'...but you don't know so you have to try it again just to see.
So every once in a while you come across the opportunity to take a ticket on a ride that you invariably can't resist and you have absolutely no idea where you are going...then at the end....the cycle continues...
Mental floss I tell you....MENTAL FLOSS!!!!
 
I have absolutely no desire to do acid - I think it's because I'm a bit of a control freak and the concept of 'losing my mind' just doesn't appeal to me at all.

Shut up. If I wanted to listen to an arsehole, I would have farted.
 
i am a tripper's toy! had a great adventure with psychokitten, chupa chup, mirage, freddo, apollo & bonkers on friday night! the experience wasn't too fantastic for bonkers, though who was totally overwhelmed. myself & my fellow 'mother hens' spent a fair chunk of the night trying to calm him down. personally i think with any psychedelic one should try it at home first, in familiar surroundings. this is what i did the weekend before for my first trip & boy am i grateful! i got the same fear bonkers had; that i was never going to be normal again! but going into it the second time i was more able to relax & enjoy myself because i KNEW i was going to feel normal again. eventually. now i'm looking forward to playing the tripper's court jester again on another adventure!
 
Damn tryptamines...
{edit: Nah Pleo it wasn't acid, it was AMT... Supposed to be a weak psychadelic at low doses (some visuals but not too intense and none of the headfuck), at least according to all the reports I've read and heard... Wasn't weak for me...)
