An encompassing mental Journey (300 ugs Al-LAD)

I dosed 2 hits of 300 ugs AL-LAD in the afternoon. This was my first time with this compound but I decided to jump into the experience. I placed the hits, which were tasteless, underneath my tounge, picked up some water and headed to a nearby park with my guitar.

I got initial alerts within a half hour, it was a subtle shift yet I could tell it was likely going to be a fairly strong trip. I found a concealed spot at the park to play my guitar, I played on there for awhile. As the effects grew, I limited my chord progressions but altered tempos, rhythms, and subtle nuances which I found interesting. I actually got a brief riff down which I plan to integrate into my music at some point. I was outlooking over a couple fountains, all of a sudden the ambiance of the water crashing into the pond they have there added an interesting ambiance to my music. The trip started coming on more swiftly, some little kids came up to me with their mom close behind as I was playing and they looked at me play and shuffled their feet which was heartwarming. I said Hi but didn't really talk too much as I was starting to get kind of twisted at this point.

After playing for awhile, I glanced up and the visuals started kicking in strong, a woman about 15 feet away from me looked like her face was upside down, the fountains took on this strange depth perception distortion where they seemed displaced from the pond. The sun was overhead and glistening on the sand and rock below me, I picked up the guitar and decided to explore. A duck seemed to swim in pace with me while I walk, momentarily being my friend in the hopes for some food. There was a sense of exhuberance and liveliness which came across me, I was filled with energy and awe and the day felt really joyous.

I was swept away in awe and intrigue at this point, the summer and autumnal colors seemed to be distinct yet merge to a beautiful visual display for my enhanced color perceptions. I walked to a garden, the second I opened the gate to the garden the the feel of the trip shifted. The awe stricken amazement gave way to reflectivity and reminiscing. I had gone to this garden with a past love and so thoughts of her surfaced and I was caught up in more fantastic imagery of going to exotic locales and foreign places where love and romance is more catered to. I plucked my guitar a few times here as well, not really playing any songs just adding to the background of the beautiful scenery. I looked at some of the flowers that were around, which seemed to take on a life of their own, kind of cartoonish and amusing but it felt they were almost singing in a sense. I stared deep into some roses, almost entranced by them. I was having some interesting thoughts of why we chose flowers to symbolize certain emotions, often conflicting ones such as a symbol of love and mourning. I went on to more bizzarre abstract thoughts, wondering if the flowers themselves appreciated being utilized in such a way. I got a holographic overlay on my visuals at this point, I could still make out my surroundings but it felt like if there was a see through layer which provided some slight visual entertainment by skewing the perception of the objects around. I headed out of the there.



Next I went through a path that was covered with sticks and marsh, more fantasy narratives overtook my mind here. A old English accent came to my mind and I started narrating my trip as If I was on some mysterious quest, appropriately enough to this season, references to Sleepy Hollow came up. After that I came upon another pond, a woman jogging that was easy on the eyes snapped me out of my fantasy narratives and I greeted and then headed to the pond. There were a couple ducks here that were interesting to watch, they didn't seem particularly concerned or interested in me and I observed there routine interactions. They were really graceful.

After the pond, I came across a softball game, again I was stricken with intense awe and slightly choked up watching these grown adults playing softball during the middle of the world series no less, something about them playing the game was really inspiring, the for the love of the game quote surfaced in my mind. I have family that played softball as well so I thought about them.

I headed back after that, upon leaving the park night came and the trip started to get more spacey. The roads seemed to be distorted and the time distortion made me question if I was going the right way a few times, I had a long walk which was more of a turbulent time mentally but nothing too crazy. I came across a pumpkin patch which was interesting, almost went in but decided to continue on my way. I got an orange which I thoroughly enjoyed and I had to walk a dog then the trip started to let up but I had residual effects and really enjoyed looking at the stars and some other interesting thoughts.

I wasn't really caught up making comparisons to LSD during the trip but naturally being a lysergamide, they are going to be brought up so I'll mention that. Most the cognitive and visuals were fairly similar to LSD, I felt a slight pressure on my face which I seemingly felt/perceived made me feel slightly more lighthead then I normally do on LSD but other than that not any notable negative sensations. I also seemed to experience more auditory hallucinations than I recall with LSD but perhaps that might be chalked up to set/setting.

This trip was really powerful, turbulent at times, but way more graceful and beautiful. I like the fluidity of the trip eventhough it was interjected with times of fractured consciousness and I seemed to be able to traverse my thoughts when needed, I could focus on some serious self analysis as well as being prompted with surreal mental imagery and narratives. This trip report touches the surface of what I experienced and the fallout of which is likely to be integrated in the following days and months and perhaps longer, it was a very worthwhile experience.

 

Nice report. I feel ya about trying to compare AL-LAD to LSD. You really get more out of it if you look at it as it's own compound without comparisons. A couple friends of mine weren't particularly impressed with 300ug AL-LAD and over 100mg MXE in one sitting, I bet in part because they kept trying to compare it to LSD.

Had AL-LAD been in LSD's shoes in the 60s reversed, I bet it would have been even more popular than LSD was. I think you could massively dose AL-LAD and be better off than you might be on LSD. Duration being a main reason. I've read on a few forums people freaking the fuck out on AL-LAD and at least one went to the hospital so unfortunately I think psychedelics in that scenario probably still would have ended up demonized.

 

Damn, that sounds awesome. Nice report, btw. I'd love to get my hands on some of that shit, if only I had a source and wasn't so fuckin broke. With my luck, by the time I'm in a position to be able to get some, it'll probably be scheduled. lol Somebody hook a brotha up. haha

 

YES!!!!:daisy:

 

^ Thought you might enjoy that.

Thanks!

The cultural impact of LSD has created a mythos around it which probably plays into the set of some people who explore these newer chems and prevents them from embracing them. I found 300 ugs the perfect cup of pouridge so to speak for my initial exploration with AL-Lad, especially considering I was playing guitar and exploring my surroundings.

That's unfortunate to hear about the hospitilization and stuff, I dunno what to think. I guess I should note that these hits seem accurately dosed, where you may not find that with a fair amount of street acid. Also as I noted, I found the auditory hallucinations fairly pronounced which may be disconcerting to some, particularly those newer to Psychedelics.

 

I do remember you being a strong proponent of oranges on psychs. Every time I have had one, I really really enjoyed it.

 

In the case of the hospitalization it was an incident where us experienced in psychedelics would chuck it off as 'newbz will be newbz'. Physically I would bet this stuff is as safe as LSD. One guy claims to have taken 1500 mics (yep 1.5mg) and he was OK, nothing troubling to note that you wouldn't expect off a high dose of an unknown chemical.

 

Nice report.

So there wasn't any real body load? Were there tremors in your legs or nausea?

 

Thanks!

I didn't experience any body load or tremors. The face pressure and lightheadedness made me slightly queasy and dizzy at times but not to an extent that I would consider it nausea.

 

just re-reading your trip report, GB. sounds like a very solid experience/substance. it reminds me of a particular trip of mine on ~300 ug LSD. especially this part:

i said in my report that it looked like there was a black net in front of me when it started to get dark.

it was like a geometrical pattern, overlaid on my normal field of view. but combined with darkness, and nearsightedness...it was actually making it a bit hard to navigate my walk to the music.


this sounded pretty freaky as i read it to myself

i also got a chuckle from you narrating the trip in an english accent. i can relate to doing similar things. once on 4acodmt, i was signing along to a song in a weird, robotic voice, and it's still pretty funny to this day (to me at least).


and i could also relate to the profound feelings you felt at the softball game - relating it back to your family and all that. i felt a super strong connection to the music at that festival - the fact that it was made by kind, loving people that grew up in the same area as me...it felt supreme at the time, but kind of seems trivial looking back on it.

very nicely written

 

So you took 600ugs? Or two 150ugs blotters?
