I've done acid like 10 times, but because of a mistake in dose and in setting, my trip was completely fucked up and destroyed and I have not been able to fully sleep in a week since then. Other scary things have happened too, like waking up in a trip, dreaming about tripping, not being able to shut off my subconscious mind to sleep. I took 4, and was with 2 other people - one kid freaked out at the come-up/peak and totally fucked everyting up. It was unforseen because my best friend and I tripped with him once before. Apparently we didn't really know him well enough. And after talking with several friends, we realized there is a difference between just eating acid and actually taking the acid trip. If this didn't happen, I would take acid again. But a piece of advice to the distributors: If you've had a good trip and want others to experience it who never have, First, get to know them very very VERY well, and trip with them, and make sure there are absolutely no distractions or problems that will ever occur for 12 hours, with a guarunteed easy to use music system. Make sure they've tried shrooms first as well. Find out as much as you can about them and their experiences, expectations, etc. SWIM should have done this before SWIM started just handing it out and saying be careful. The better prepared you are, the better your trips will be. It takes a great deal of trust to get your mind to "come out" and experience the trip to the full extent. With such care and trust, the peak is absolutely amazing - the most satisfying experience - the closest you'll ever get to a higher power. But this preparation is VITAL - Be careful, peace
I freaked my first time. After that for a long time I had a lotta problems living in my world. But now I'm done getting over my personal problems, which I've been struggling with ever since summer now. My last acid trip was amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing!!! I think the person who 100% accepts and loves himself will never freak or go insane. And I think it's a stage everyone shud seek. I'm not completely there, still need to get over this god damn cold weed turk.
my LSD experience was great. I tripped with a few happy stoners we had it in liquid form two kids dropped though their eye, this other dude put a drop on his tounge and I put a drop on the back of my neck. at first it seemed we would not be able to function but after a few hours we were walking and talking normally then we each took thre hits of some bomb chrons and that made our trip so much more crazy. alot of it i dont remember......i remember talking to my mom on the phone (it was fucking intense!!!), attempting to bone, skating and watching lots of tv.....the rest seems just really blurred.......i remember having crazy conversations with my friends.....but i dont remember what it was about.....some thing wierd though.......i remmember laughing uncontrollably.....i remember talking to my cat (we had a telapathic conversation) my mind was moved so fast...so much information was going through my head....it was the craziest experiece of my life. It will be a while before i experiment with it again though.
i think the trip was so fun because we were all real happy go lucky people....always laughing ...always having a good time. i'd only drop with my good good buddies
Yeah just make sure you're in the right place, with the right people, in the right state of mind and you'll be fine. But i've found that having a tranquilizer handy just incase you flipout is a very good thing.
you say try shrooms first, but in my experience shrooms can be a fuckload harsher than acid when it comes to a bad trip.
I am going to have to disagree pretty strongly about shrooms being "far worse." Shrooms are much more shamanistic and mystical, and acid is far more electric and energetic... although I can see how some people would find shrooms scarier, I think that a bad acid trip would be way, way worse than a bad shroom trip, and I personally think acid should be treated with more respect/care than shrooms. Obviously, some will disagree, but I think to get on here and to say that shrooms are far more difficult to handle is just wrong.
The only reason people have the mindset that shrooms are easier to handle is because the compound is a bit less potent than LSD, so most people end up having a lower intensity trip on shrooms. Try eating 10-15 grams of shrooms and see what happens. From my experience, and the experience of several of my friends, shrooms are a lot more confusing than LSD, which also can have a euphoric effect. Last November a buddy of mine and I tripped and for about three hours he would NOT shut up about how it felt like he was rollin as well. Shrooms feel more messy to me, natural, out of control, random. LSD is mathematical, patterny, electric, euphoric. I could see how a bad trip on shrooms would way fuckin worse, there's a component about eating shrooms you have to keep in mind - your body does NOT want that shit in there, and there's a pretty chance of getting sick if you accidentally eat too much. I've heard of people getting sick while on acid, but I've only had that happen because I was getting so high...like a soaring sensation more than actual nausea. Both should be treated with an equal amount of respect, both are extremely powerful psychdelic drugs.
usualy when shit like that happens the person is fucked up before hand but they just got good at lying to themselves
it's called "set" and "setting." if people understood the true meaning of this, there would be no "bad" trips. period.
Id have to add dose in there though. Unless its considered part of setting. Good setting is easy to be completely turned around if I would take too much, at least for me.
