(mods, make this a poll please?)

just curious on what most people do in this situation, which happens to me occasionally.

do you usually...
A. ride out whatever trip you have
B. take the risk of eating more or taking a different psychedelic
C. abort your half-tripping state with benzos or other means and try to get some rest
D. add lots of milder "supplements" (weed, nitrous, or for some people DMT) until you're satisfactorily altered.

i usually go with B, because i dislike that annoying half-tripping state. especially if it's a long-lasting compound and i'm going to be awake anyway. if i have "supplements" like weed or nitrous on hand i'll sometimes use those instead of redosing, but i usually just don't have them on hand.

but if it's totally not worth it to re-dose i'll just try to ride it out. i never abort trips with benzos, but near the end i may drink some rooibis tea (which, by the way, works wonders).

A for me, stick with it. I will try B next time it happens though.

Good question, for me + level trips are not nice. I can completely feel any body load and I just get that come up like stimulation for the whole 'trip', which isn't usually fun or worthwhile.
 
I did this last weekend.. the LSD i took was weaker then i thought, and simply did not give the effect i was looking for. I really considered taking more.. but i was already 3hours in, and i just figured i'd ride this out and dose more the next time.

I HATE re-dosing on psychs.. i prefer to do a big hit at once or not at all lol. Although i admit i tried weed to help boost the trip, but it didn't help much. So i guess i would be A and D. It was a shitty feeling lol, i didn't like it much.. body buzz, bit a visuals.. but no mental stimulation at all.
 
Yea this is always a big decision for me, trying to decide whether I have sufficiently come up or not...whether it's been too long for it to be worth redosing or not...how much I should redose.

A lot of times I will redose
When I decide not to I will do some reading in the slightly altered mindset, analyse some tv (anime is my favorite while tripping), or go for a bike ride all of which are still really nice
 
depends, I would have normally just used an opiate/benzo and had a nice euphoric trip/experience.


I never was one for mixing substances, like LSD and DMT. done it, but always had rather just done one. But mixing MDMA with any psychedelic has been a must do almost all the time.

like 60-75mics of LSD and (at the time) 30-40mg of oxycodone was a great relaxed euphoric trip.
 
I added a poll, though I had to change the wording of the options to fit it in. I think it makes sense, FGH if you want it changed or whatnot please PM me :).

I chose options 1.
 
I would just smoke a bunch of weed to intensify the experience. Re-dosing always sucks
 
depends on what level of a trip im on

if im tripping, but not quite where i want to be, i will add supplements

if i can tell fairly quickly that my trip will not go to the extent that i prefer, then i will redose

Although, if i am at a lite/medium trip and redosing is not an option, then i will take some opiates and add other supplements (weed, ketamine)
 
I voted B, but actually it would be A (if I'm close to the desired level), B (if I'm not close enough) and/or D (if I want to blast off or if I'm stuck between A or B).

I solely use (5-MeO)-DMT as a supplement, nitrous isn't that amazing imo and weed just sends me into a state that comes closest to psychosis as far as I imagine psychosis to be.

Sometimes I smoke a cigar or some mapacho, though I don't think that it counts in the way "supplement" is meant here.
 
It depends on the drug.
It depends how much time has passed.
It depends how much time I have available.
It depends if the drug has built a quick tolerance and eating more is mostly futile (like with LSD).
And it depends if underdosing happens to be a good time anyway :)
 
^ all of that (what BD said) and how much of it I have left.

I usually just make sure this doesn't happen. If I'm not sure then I usually won't do it. That said I think I would most likely go with A) Ride it out.
 
Take more drugs. Or just ride it out. Depending on what my situation is and what drugs are sittin around.
 
Take more drugs! While waiting to second dose kick in i will smoke weed and use popper.Mild trips are ok but anything weaker than 80mcg lsd will make my angry.
