Acid an blatently last a lot longer than 12 hours

I tripped yesterday from 6:30am (dropped at 6 and took 30 minutes to come up) until 2:30am this morning - the trip only stopped because I went to sleep, AND I'm still getting faint after effects as we speak (12:44pm), seeing swastikas and letters forming all over the place, but they're becoming gradually less and less aparent.

It was most certainly LSD, one drop of liquid, and incorporated all the elements I find in a typical acid trip, so there's no doubt that it could have been any sort of research chemical.

The thing that strung out the trip so long, was that I got caught in the mindset that I was God, and as such was the sole creator of everything around me. This is fun for a while, but it gets boring really fucking fast, especially when everyone around you is trying to bring you out of the trip, but you know that they're actually your own mind, speaking to yourself through your own hallucinations (I know this for a fact because strangers had memories that only I could have, like my previous acid experiences.)

Anyway, I could talk all day about the trip itself, but my point is that acid can last a lot longer than the 12 hour maximum everybody always cites. Next time someone says they tripped for 24 hours or more, I wouldn't be quite so sceptical.

Thing is I believe the direct effects of the drug itself last a maximum of 12 hours, but when your mind has been fully deconstructed and warped to buggery, the recovery process can take much longer, and that recovery period can absolutely include full on hallucinations.

I basically had to go through several stages to remind myself that I was not only a human being, but that I was an individual, and that there was more to life than what my mind could create. I think in the future (if I ever do acid again this trip was pretty fucking intense, and I told myself many times not to take acid again), I might carry around a small mirror or reflective surface to help with this

Before I could fully come out of the trip, I hate to take a piss, I had to shit, I had to feel love and sexual attraction, I had to have a wank, and I had to sleep. I had to feel all my emotions like fear, shock, etc. My trip literally guided me through all these basic functions one by one.

I don't know if 2cesarewild still watches this forum, but I remember he used to say that after one acid trip, his digestive system became totally fucked. It wouldn't surprise me at all if that was as a result of the trip, because my body forgot how to do all sorts of shit until I reminded it to do it. It took me FAR too long to realise that I needed to shit, and by the time I did, my stomach was hurting like hell, like it had gotten stuck somewhere in the system then forgotten what to do. I reckon all sorts of problems could come from having a half digested poop in your system for the duration of an acid trip, during which time the digestion process stopped functioning.. so take a shit before you trip guys

 

They're called flashbacks and they are fucking amazing. I LOVE the acid comedown. Hell, I love everything about the drug.
Acid is usually a 12 hour thing for me, followed by some weed then sleep. I'll continue to feel 'altered' for a few days after, and my flashbacks can take place up to a year afterwards!

 

See I've had flashbacks before, but the trip didn't actually end, I was experiencing completely fresh new hallucinations for hours after I should have come down. Like I said I think my mind just needed to fully readjust itself, so it did so through whatever means possible, but whatever you want to call it, it's still part of the trip, and if the trip doesn't actually stop, how can you call it a flashback? There was no flashing involved it was just a full on extension of the trip.

 

Well in that case you obviously had very potent acid, didn't ya!

 

In general, the larger the dosage, the longer it lasts. 12 hours would be probably be average, for a regular size dosage.

 

i did 5 hits once and tripped for like 36 hours....i thought i was stuck in a permatrip. it got very scary for me but it eventually went away

 

Was it like the regular tripping stopped after 8-12 hours, but certain aspects of the trip continued? Because when I'm tripping fully, I could just stare at my hand, or at some piece of psychedelic art, and watch it distort, but after a certain point, what I'd consider "regular" tripping definitely ends, but you can remain stuck in a particular psychedelic state, which can involve full on tripping, but only on a certain wavelength (so in that respect I suppose it is similar to a flashback, only much more prolonged).

 

Mate - they are very common after effects of good 'cid and I know exactly what you mean. I've always classed it as one of the enjoyable things about LSD though!

 

ive tripped for 24+ hrs a couple of times.. i never put a time limit on L tho cause its never tha same for me..

 

my 4th trip ever was at bonarroo, it was about 105 degrees, and i didnt know i was getting any liquid untill it started running down my throat because it was so warm...so who knows how much i really took...i estimate 7 or 8...

regardless, I peaked in like an hour, peaked for about 8 or 9 hours (to this days remaining the most intense psychedelic experience i have ever sat through) and plateaued for the entire next night and didnt start to feel any sort of comedown until the next night when i had to smoke myself to sleep. And i wouldnt have slept had i not had been curled up to a bowl sucking on it like a pascifier. It was a 35+ hour trip and it was def. LSD, it had no body load and it wasnt foreign at all which is how DOC and the other "LSD"-like RC's feel. Anyone who says that acid cant exceed 12 hours hasnt taking a big enough dose with extremely potent acid.

 

i tripped for about 20+ hours off 3 killer hits

 

I find Im always tweaked until I sleep and wake up. Then next day I feel great. Smokin pot the day after always brings the L back out a bit.
