I really want to try LSD. Some friends at my college trip every once in a while so I might join them.

The problem is I get anxiety on weed at times. Every time I take it there's at least some background paranoia involving my heart. My heart is fine of course, it's just that this happens lately.

I've improved at not freaking out but one time my heart was at 180 bpm and I was totally freaking out. I've done adderall which raises my heart more than weed but doesn't freak me out. Alcohol and nitrous don't freak me out either.

The main problem is I get stuck in a thought loop and can't get out. My mind is cloudy I get convinced of things that are not true.

Can LSD cloud your mind and induce paranoia like weed? Can it get me afraid for my heart (which is fine)?
 
LSD can indeed cause the symptoms you are speaking of, but that doesn't mean it will. Personally weed causes those symptoms for me when i smoke even the slightest bit too much, but even high doses of LSD generally do not most of the time. Start with no more than 1 tab/dose and see where it takes you. :)
 
I know nothing about LSD but weed is known to cause paranoia/anxiety, there are plenty of people who do all kinds of drugs but don't like weed because of the paranoia :)

I'm the same really, I prefer blazing alone these days. I just get to paranoid and wrapped up in my thoughts around people.
 
Be careful. You have to go into it with happy thoughts! I was so nervous my first time. It kicks in slowly and peaks around 2 hours after dosing so once you take it its not like 'oh shit whats next?' I was anxious but listen to happy music and be with people who are also doing it. I am not a very nervous person so I didn't have many difficulties with it. The only thing is I smoked hash about 5 hrs in and it made my mind go crazy and at one point I was thinking so hard that I realized my mind would be like this for another 4 hours and it made me panic for some reason and I was like oh shit, I'm going to have a bad trip. Panic will take over VERY quickly but its all in your head!! If you seriously just focus on something happy and let it develop into a new train of thought you will completely forget why you were panicking. Good luck, it's absolutely amazing!
 
this is a "what should I take" post.

we can't tell you what you can or can't take.

anyone who asks this question should get the same advice -

"NO! Do not take any drugs."

There are many reasons behind this logic...
 
**************REMINDER- PLEASE READ - NO-"What Did I/Should I Take" Threads**********
Threads requesting identification of, among other things, mushrooms, pills, powders, things that you have taken based on what you felt, and so on, will be closed on sight. This is not a new policy and has been the rule in this forum for quite some time. Lately we have been getting a lot of threads, particularly mushroom ID threads, I guess as they are in season, and the moderators are tiring of closing them. Please do not make any more. If you are picking mushrooms, you need also to pick up a good text on mycology, and hopefully, have some experienced and knowledgeable friends. If you are fucking around with mushrooms that you are in any way uncertain of, you shouldn't be, and you are putting your life at risk.

This also includes threads asking whether one should use a substance or not. We are NOT here to help you decide what drug to use, but we ARE here to help make it safe. As with the ID threads, threads of suh a nature will be immediately closed. If that happens to a thread of yours, read this!!!!!

We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.

exactlyyy what i was gonna say good advice right there if your not sure you wanna trip DONT DO IT. You gotta be excited about it willing to experience it and just fucking go with the flow.

It is all in your head, you have to beleive its gonna be a great time trip with some close friends whom you are comfortable with laugh, chat just have fun man dont think about shit thats gonna cause you to be nervous and know that there is no way you are going to die or anything and if you do start to get anxious remember you are tripping, you took a powerful substance and those are just side effects you will be normal soon enough=D do it dude have fun
 
This is clearly not a "what should i take thread" in my opinion. The OP is clearly asking whether or not LSD will cause anxiety. The answer is that everyone is different, but simply because pot causes him anxiety absolutely does NOT mean LSD will. And the logic behind "No, don't do drugs" Does not apply here. These are psychedelics we are talking about after all. <3

So basically that is /thread. So whether you are going to bitch about the rules or not everyone wins. OP, i earnestly hope your first LSD experience is as wonderful, magical, and enlightening as mine was. Personally my first time was rather random and i had not done a large amount of research on the substance yet, and honestly i would not wish it to have happened any other way. I feel like going into an acid trip for your first time after reading pages upon pages of information on it will leave you with preconceptions that could affect the outcome of the experience.
 
Perfect, so I'm about to try LSD for my first time some time this week, and well just as the OP I'm nervous for the simple fact that I don't know what to expect. Pretty much I plan to do it at my house since that is the safest place for me.

Are you in control when your on LSD or does it just sort of take you over, like say I just wanted to stay in my room but well the LSD wants to explore would I be able to hold myself back?

I ask because I plan on just taking the tab, then just chill in my room, and listen to some Kid Cudi and Wiz khalifa. Idk why but that music makes me very happy, Would hip hop be okay to listen to while you fry?

I used to trip a lot. For me, I always had what I called "The Little Man" that kind of felt like a little piece of my brain that wasn't tripping. Basically, anytime things started to get too weird or out of control The Little Man would step in and chill everything out.

Having said that, I'm not sure tripping alone is a good idea for your first time. Personally, I think you should probably have somebody experienced with you, preferably not tripping. Just in case, ya know?
 
the only question you need to ask yourself is, will I be ok on LSD? If the answer is yes, then yes, you will be ok. Most likely.
 
i once felt like my head was goin to implode on itself for like 12 hours... other then that it was fun ahah
 
Staying positive and excited throughout the peak should ensure a great trip. I would recommend not smoking any weed also. If you want to do it at the end of the trip.
 
Weed makes me extremely paranoid too no matter what. A sort of paranoia I can't get out of no matter how hard I try.

LSD only makes me paranoid when I am not in the right setting/mind set. And if I do get paranoid I simply change my surroundings or think my way out of it. Just be excited to do it, and be with people/surroundings you love.
 
generally speaking, LSD anxiety & cannabis anxiety are a bit different. And the two work on totally different brain systems, so anxiety with one doesn't mean you will (or won't) experience anxiety with the other. Also, if you do decide to take LSD, and cannabis gives you anxiety, don't smoke while you're on LSD. All this being said, no one here can answer your question, its just something you have to find out for yourself. Read up on it, and make an informed decision, that'll give you the best shot at either having a good experience if you decide to go that route. Happy travels!
