Yesterday I had my first acid trip, it was kind of just off the fly at 8 in the morning. My homeboy went out and partied that night and for some reason all that drinking and getting fucked up led him to park in my driveway of my house and sleep there in his car. Whatever. So I go out there, he's there. I get in the car, wake him up, shake hands Whatever and like 15 minutes later I got a tab in my mouth. We ride around and smoke weed. It really did start in an hour on the dot. We sat on his porch the whole trip hitting blunts n bongs. Every time I hit the tree my trip would rush over me and id feel high as fuck. The furthest my visuals went though was sharpened attention to detail, trees were curvy, the sliding glass door reflections would kind of melt and my niggas face just kept dropping around and looked warped. Pretty weak compared to what I expected, which were vivid colorful hallucinations. Um for a long time everything was funny but definetly not as hysterical as when I got the gigs on shrooms. LSD made me feel like I wasnt even in florida, I felt like i was in Chicago instead (a place I visit) and while I was sitting in my lawn chair i felt like I was in a car, all because there a breeze, saw the trees bending and the music was playing loud I legit thought I was in the car. Which was wierd because i kept feeling familiar feelings, chicago, sitting in a car w loud music cuz I've done that literally Every day this summer- etc. It was pretty nostalgic high. I lost all perception of time, for example. I knew id have to call my girlfriend eventually but I wasn't even sure if 12 o'clock was late or not, I didn't know what I would even do with my day after the trip because I completely forgot what kind of day I wanted to have. Even when me and my girl was arguing, something came up about me on acid and I was fully convinced it happened like, the day before that o4 something. Not that morning. I also felt like a wild animal when I stood next to his car and ate pizza in the humid heat. By then it was the end and I felt fried. When I got home, I felt like I needed a 3 your shower just to feel like myself. I even had to clean my room to get this icky gross feeling off myself. And instead of wearing any old clothes I put on something comfortable but decent just because i had this cloud over me of just 'who am I?' and feeling filthy. I really did feel just slightly depressed after and dirty. I felt better after many hours though. Thoughts? How was yours? Does that trip sound legit or like they gave me some fake shit is what I really wanna know.
It sounds like legit LSD but if you have to rely on copious amounts of pot to maintain your peak, you didn't take enough. Maybe try 3 hits next time.
1 ain't much. IMO never expect full color hallucins on acid. Also try not to take it if you're not in a happy place -- or at least be aware what can happen. LSD highlights real-life and whatever real perceptions you have going on. Including bad vibes and/or man I would have explored why it felt like Chicago for you. That's personal and interesting. the only thing I find funny is everyone feels like a filth when eating especially meat on acid. I prolly wouldn't have enjoyed a pepperoni pizza on a humid day while on acid. Your buddy shouldn't drive. it's a very pleasant and sensitive experience. If you take it again (wait a few weeks) take 2 or 3 hits, plan the day a bit more and be open to whatever ride the trip takes you on without ruining it by hype or expectations.
It is something that needs to be treated with the right respect and intention and taken in the right set and setting. Plan it ahead of time next time and plan your intentions for the trip. I prefer to be alone outdoors where nobody is going to bother me. All LSD you get should be taken at low doses because alot of it, most of it perhaps, is not LSD or not only LSD. There are many dangerous research chemicals to be wary of so don't take too much assuming its LSD. I stay away from people who like to trip as a purely "lets get fucked up" thing because to me getting fucked up is not what psychedelics are for, they can do so much more for you if you have the intention of learning and growing and having a spiritual or therapeutic experience. Only take it when you are in a positive state of mind. Even then don't expect it to be all butterflies and rainbows. Psychedelics are a form of medicine that forces you to face the less than pleasant aspects of yourself head on. These compounds are teachers who will give you more truth than many or ready to handle which is why taking time to integrate the experience and learn lessons is so important. One thing I learned is that dose matters less then where you take it, who you take in with, what your intentions are and what your head space is like before the trip. If it is not planned well it can be very unpleasant.
An alternative to this is invest in an ehrlich test kit which will differentiate dangerous research chems such as nbome from LSD and lysergamides, which can allow one to take higher doses and they don't have to question whether what they have is LSD due to subtlety or pot providing the bulk of the trip.
