Psychosis?

[c3m3t3rydr1ve]

Hi. I'm taking LSD for the first time saturday. I have these small, plain white rectangular hits that aren't really supposed to be strong, so my dealer told me to take two. The only problem is, I'm afraid that if I take LSD my ongoing depression will worsen. At the moment I take anxiety and anti-depressents. I've been diagnosed with chronic depression and generalized anxiety disorder, but as long as I take my meds I'm usually fine. There is no known history of Schizophrenia or Bipolar disorder in my family, just depression. My question is rather the LSD can cause Schizophrenia or bi-polar disorder to randomly appear, even without a history. Also, is my depression likely to worsen, even while taking anti-depressants?

[Gratefully Dawg]

don't worry about that man, especially for a first time. I have friends who claim that lsd has changed their lives. Can't comment on that but that's their opinion. YOu won't lapse into manic depression cause you take 2 hits. YOu said your doing it saturday. I hope your storing the doses right so they'll be good for then. No Light, No heat, and as little air exposure as possible. Have fun

To get on with my psychedelic exploration I just had to stop believing in western psychology.

Miracles happen every day. It wouldn't suprise me that you go over your depression by taking lsd. You won't be the first one to do that. So why not asking yourself will it help you to go over it rather than will it worsen it. Stress, problems, depresion, insanity.... it is all created by you.

[c3m3t3rydr1ve]

Alright, thanks, everyone! I'm storing it under my dresser with an ice pack over it. Plus, my room is cold anyway because it's in a basement. I have it in a ziplock bag with as little air as I could manage. I'm determined to make this an experience that lets me see the beautiful side of life instead of the negative.

Who told you to put an ice pack on it?

[Swizzles]

Have you done any psychedelics before? Or is this the first?

DO NOT TAKE YOUR ANTI DEPRESSENTS THE SAME DAY YOU FRY! we had a friend that did that and he had a seizure. just so you know. other than that it will probably help you a lot.. it more or less cured my borderline personality disorder and my borfriends depression.. there is a very low chance that it will make you worse.

but if you have a lot on your plate i would wait a while. you dont wanna be stressed out when you fry... thats a sure fire way to have a bad trip.. i have seen it time and time again. but im also the type of person that considers bad trips to be necessary in the discovery of ones self thru hallucinogens... they really tell you whats really going on in your mind most of the time. like my fiance had a bad trip not that long ago where he thought there were cops surrounding the house and he had to go to jail. lol. at the time he'd had a warrant for nearly a year... go figure. lol. shit happens. but every one i have ever seen freak out was a better person for it later... lol.

and you dont need an ice pack.. lol... water will make it decompose. just keep it out of the light and heat and air... thats all.

SSRI's are also notorious for canceling out the effects almost entirely.

Correction, chlorinated water will cause LSD to turn over, pure water will not. As long as it isnt abundant in oxygen.

No problem. LSD is soluable in most liquid, alcohol is the best. Remember the people used to dose people drinks at concerts and whatnot? ;)
Namaste

[c3m3t3rydr1ve]

well the ice pack isn't directly on it, but I supposed I'll remove it anyway lol. No, I've never taken any psychadelics before, even though I've taking enough Ambien to make me hallucinate. Other than that I've done MDMA, pot, CCCs, and numerous benzos and other pills, so this will be entirely new.

just trying to spread around some good information :)

In my humble opinion, LSD sounds like a terrible idea for you. If you are on medication, either you are unstable mentally (most likely the case), you believe you are unstable mentally, or, at the very least, someone else thinks you are unstable mentally. This is the absolute worst possible mindset with which to enter an LSD trip. Of course, you could take it and have a blast and "see the light" and all of that other bullshit. But, considering you have an anxiety disorder, I think it's much more likely that you're going to end up cowering in a corner. Who knows. Best of luck, and if you do decide to take it, just remember that it's all in your head.

It can cause schizophrenia, yes, which is why I don't take hallucinogens because I have depression and anxiety as you do. If you're mentally ill it's a very bad idea - they give antipsychotics to people who are tripping and a danger to themselves and others - they use the old-school antipsychs like Haldol. It's not worth the risk in my opinion. Once you develop schizophrenia or BPD it usually stays for life which is why it's SO IMPORTANT to prevent it from occurring in the first place!

[lou_reed]

I don't pretend to have much knowledge on the subject of schizophrenia so correct me if im wrong but isnt this a condition which if a person has, will manifest itself sooner or later regardless of anything else?

[soaringeagle]

anything that can change your mind can change your mind in any way
if your mind has weaknesses and requires medications be careful what u medicate with.

why do ppl think halucinations are good for every1? for some ppl halucinating can trigger a halucinary world

im in agreement with yourt history your lil risky your takin the opinion of 17 to 19 year old drug users (no offence) drug users will always say just do it no matter what the drug of choice they'll just tell ya to go sahead and try it

ive used alot alotta ppl used alot not alotta ppl went insane some ppl will be insane no matter what but some ppl will not be better off from tripping some will
but to just say go for it u might be cured by it is pretty irrisponcible of a 17 year old to say gamble with your mind it may pay off it may not

ive seen ppl go downhill ive seen edm go up..
i cant say whats effected each and every 1 the most but your already deallin with alotta preobds and doin alottas drugs (hmmm connected maybe?) addin in halucinatory mingfucks might not be the answer not til your heads more together anyway

it containes 35 mg of DXM per pill...

as well as chloriphenarimine, gueifenisin and acetaminaphin... in fairly large doses... its REALLY fucking bad form you... one of my friends did so much CCC that they ended up in the hospital with kidney problems...

@ my highschool a shit load of 10th graders were giving away boxes of ccc to people and telling them to take the whole box... 8 kids ended up in the hospital.. its bad shit,

yeah I ended up in the hospital too from stupid ass triple c's. But I think the main reason i was in trouble is because I mixed them with ambien. not too fun.

I must agree with Soaring Eagle. You're playing Russian Roulette with your mental health when you take LSD whilst also being medicated for depression and anxiety. And he's right, there are many very young drug users pushing their ego based "shit talk" here without actually having had the invaluable experience of age and wisdom behind them. Of course LSD is fascinating when your young, invincible and "going off your nut" with it in the early days, but over time the negative consequences will start to become much clearer, which will hopefully help you to develop a much more "objective" and "balanced" perspective in general. With that in mind, I think it's really great that you have taken the time to actually consider if LSD is right for you at this time. It shows that you are a responsible, sensitive and caring person. And if you do decide to hit on lucy, do yourself a favor and go off the meds for a few weeks beforehand, get plenty of exercise, perhaps do some meditation/prayer to calm your mind, and give lsd the proper respect that it deserves. And if you're not ready for it now, simply wait until you are. No harm in that. Above all, check your head, and trust your instincts. Really listen to them, as they are your ultimate guide for successfully navigating throughout this splendid, tragic, and mysterious world.

oh, i know. i stopped doing it about two years ago.

[c3m3t3rydr1ve]

ive done it twice since i posted this, and thankfully both times were amazing, though i do admit i was taking a pretty big risk. luckily both times i was in a safe place with people i love. thanks

[c3m3t3rydr1ve]

thanks for the advice! ive done it a couple of times since this thread started, and luckily both times were wonderful, though i do not plan on doing it again. or at least not for a very long time. i got off my depression meds for a few days beforehand (which is usually all it takes to get it out of your system), but the first time i took my anxiety meds just to keep my nerves calm.

[rollontheground]

c3m3tmrydr1ve...I AM BIPOLAR ALSO,,,ive done a lot of different drugs, mdma,pcp,and lsd all included...just let me say that in my experience lsd does not make you worse at all and most certainly does not turn you schitz...(in moderation), what im saying is that people who are bipolar and take 10 or 20 hits of acid may turn schitzophrenic or have there condition worsened...but i really dont think 1-4 hits is gonna do anything bad...and some good may come out of it...by the way if ur bipolar and on any of these medications, your lsd experience will be GREATLY diminished,
SEROQUEL,ZYPREXA,THORAZINE,clonazepam,lorazepam,al prazolam(i know ur bipolar but maybe for anxiety), and maybe depakote and tegretol(carabramazepine sp.?)(not sure on those ones) and almost positive lamictal will also lessen ur experience,,,if u are on lamictal dont ever stop cold turkey...after 200mg for a year and a half i quit cold turkey and experienced pins and needle like feelings in my face for a week straight...

[c3m3t3rydr1ve]

i'm not bipolar... but thanks lol

[rollontheground]

wow my bad...im gonna start reading ppls posts word for word before i post for now on...lol

that's somewhat accurate actually. Im not a brain scientist or whatever, but I know for a fact that everything that is fucked up with me, I did it to myself.

as for why, I can't say. I dont know.
