Your favorite trip report

[alantis360]

I wanna show someone who has never taken lsd a nice positive spiritual experience someone had. Can anyone recommend any really good ones?

Go into the Trip Reports forum and look through experiences.

I did that and im not finding anything that I really like. Besides I dont have enough time to read through gobs of trip reports and was hoping someone would have one of the top of their head.

I really want a good trip report to show my friend not just any.

Search on Erowid for Mystical or Glowing experiences

Also, on Erowid, if you go to the LSD vault and show experience reports, click on the [show all] button and it will list them starting with those that got 3 stars followed by 2 stars.
Those ones are selected by the site admins / editors as written especially well.
Never mind, this is the link for that

Combined with the ones kidklmx recommended that were not necessarily written well but 'experienced well', you will probably get a good bunch.

I will check if I recognize ones that I found exceptionally memorable.
But maybe you shouldn't just let your friend read only positive reports but also negative ones to be fair. And extremely prozaic and promising ones might make for expectations that are not realistic, they might devalue it a bit or surprise if the actual trip turns out to be different from it.

Just share general information about the drug and some random reports with an okay Erowid rating. That should be enough, persuading someone to take LSD is not really cool. And IMO it is the most awesome if expectations are limited as long as a person knows what essential things to prepare for.

Im definitely not persuading them. They actually live in another country she has just been very interested in it and wanted to give her a glimpse. I have already read some on erowid. Some of the ones with 3 stars were good trip reports but also were pretty much bad trips which i dont want to show her that side of it yet bc i think would be hard to explain off the get go and scare her.

I guess your right to not rule out the negative ones. the two with 3 stars i ruled out right away were bad trips bc one they took the lsd at the tail end of some mdma and other ended up getting arrested so def dont wanna show bad trips from people making irresponsible decisions.

Boy, have I certainly fell into this trap before.

^ For me, it was rather the opposite.

Before I ever experienced psychedelics first-hand, my curiosity was piqued by good trip reports, but when I actually tripped, the magnitude of the experience completely blew my expectations out of the water.



Actually, if your friend wants to learn more about psyches, you should tell her to make a Bluelight account, and post any questions she has to the PD subforum. That will probably be most educational.

I recommend for the first 2 hours just zone out, listen to your favorite music, enjoy nature, and ultimately just show love and compassion with everything. After that get creative and curious. I had by far one of the most amazing experience's just playing harmonica with my mom. If you stay on the positive train of thought anything is possible. I'd never played before but when we started to make music it didn't matter. It's what you make of it. I could of blown in any note and we would hear what we wanted. Even painting, no matter how much practice you've had if you believe and if it feels right the possibilities are endless. My last word of advice is to be with trustworthy people, go with the flow, and always remember your always in control. Love, peace, star tetrahedrons, rhythm, and endless possibilities happy tripping

Yeah speaking of erowid trip reports, does anyone know what the difference is between a blue star and a golden/yellow star?
