Im sure there are a bunch of "first time" threads one here, but iv already done a good amount of research and just have a few questions. Me and some buds are looking to get about 40 hits mid feb (friend of mine is buying and selling down to us) most of my friends have tripped on shrooms b4 and i have had a few light shroom trips we all have also thizzed quite a few time and are all veeeeery regular stoners. Will we need a sitter when we take our first hits? We where all looking at taking 1-3 hits our first time (some only want one most want two a few of the more hardcore want 3) or do you think because of our previous drug experiences we will be able to handle it? im realy only speaking for my group of friends for this there is going to be about 6 of us. None of us have tripped of acid b4 thats why i want to know if we can do it without a sitter because whoever has to watch misses out also how many hits would be good to take at first i was thinking two, but i dont know the quality of the acid and i dont want to underdo it and be disapointed i want the full blown visual trip i also dont want to go way overboard and fuck up thanks for anyhelp ahead of time
If you've all already done shrooms, a sitter is really not necessary, unless of course you really wanna be extra careful. I recommend at least 2-3 hits for your first time, I've seen way too many people take only one and be very dissappointed. Enjoy.
I don't think a sitter would be particularly necessary but it's always a good idea when tripping for the first time. It's usually good for everyone to sit down before dropping and discuss what to do if someone starts to freak out. Using a soft calm voice and telling the person they will be ok in a few hours and it's only the acid making feel that way and try directing their attention to something more positive is good at calming someone down. This however will usually bring your own trip down a bit which is another reason why having a sitter is a good thing. A disturbance with one person may also bring on a bad trip for another. Having a designated 'safe zone' established beforehand is always a good idea. The simple notion that 'this couch/chair/bed is a safe spot and nothing bad can happen to me here' can really save someone's night. It sounds silly but it works. As far as a good dose goes anywhere between 1-3 hits will be sufficient for a first time. I suggest taking one and waiting for it to kick in then by judging on the strength of one determine if taking 1 or 2 more is a good idea. There is no other way to know how strong the acid is and getting a feel for it is the best way to find out.
if there are that many heads frying together i dont think a sitter is neccessary. im pretty sure you guys are all capable, somewhat intelligent human beings . just make sure your set and setting is to your liking, that is rule number one. try to do it out doors like at the beach or a forest like setting. 2-3 hits is a good dose, especially for first timers. when you fry you dont completely lose all concepts of reality, you still know whats going on around you, one may even go as far as saying you'll have a better understanding of what is going on around you. you will still be able to function, just on a higher level. and try not to smoke weed until the end of the trip, especially if this is your first time. LSD is a wonderful substance by itself and should be experienced 100% atleast once without other substances. have fun and be safe. -Tos
I think anyone below the 18 who wants to get into the psychedelic mess that acid can leave you in is quite frankly out of their mind! It depends how many mics there are in your blotter.. Over the past month I've seen 2 different batches of blotter. Hoffman Brains and Playboy Bunnies; the bunnies were at least triple the strength of the brains and 1 knocked my head the fuck off (although I took another 5 hours into the trip). The Brains gave me the acid effects, but in no way was I tripping. Admittedly, back then it felt like I was tripping but the word was completely and utterly redefined when I chewed up the bunnies. You should be taking 1 tab at a time. Ride it out until 3 hours have passed because good acid takes it's time. You'll know yourself how good the acid is when you can't stand up and getting people's sentences confused and - well - I might as well explain to a blind person the joys of sight..
I think 1 tab is tons of fun, but no real religious or personal revelations. If you are not 100% sure about your set and setting maybe just do 1. The only bad set and setting is when sober people come... atleast its the only way I can think of to have a bad set or setting. I dont know I have only done it a few times and its the only thing I would think would ever cause a bad trip. What other set and setting is a bad idea than sober people like your grandparents coming over?
Hey guys thanks for all the advice it looks like we are going to doing pretty close to the same thing we do when we thizz there is a very nice big park a little out of the way we are all gona go chill there, each start with one hit and take more accordingly to how we feel. none of us are looking for "just a fun buzz" cuz we can get that whenever we want we are all looking for some sort of change from this we are also designating a safe zone where everyone will kind of keep an eye on everyone else to make sure noone is doing stupid
Depends on your frame of mind. I tripped when i was 16 for the first time and loved every bleeding second of it.
And DO NOT have a sitter whatever you do. This isnt DMT. A sitter would only get in the way. My advice would be to trip with a couple really close friends in a closed environment where absolutely nothing could go wrong. If you like milder psychedelics, and your in a good set and setting, you're guaranteed to at least have a relatively good time, even if it isnt your drug of choice.
