why do acid?

im 22 years old n ive been tripping since i was like 17 or so.. ive done pills n coke, n weed.. the three basics. .hehehe.. but ive never done acid..

im thinking of maybe trying it someday... but i dont know.. what if i have a bad trip?.. what do i do?.. how does it feel to trip on it.. like what are the procedures. i want to knwo from people who actually have done it, not from a book if u know what i mean..

so please amuse me n tell me the reasons why i should.. cheer me a bit! heheh

 

no such thing as a 'bad' trip, overwhelming maybe, definately do it and just go with it and you'll see why you should have done it a long time ago. But damn if you've been tripping for 5 years you dont need acid

 

If all you've done is pills coke and weed, you should be very careful about acid. Know your dealer and only take one or two hits. acid is different from most drugs because it creates a new reality within your mind. do it inside with someone else, be in a positive mindset, and have fun.

 

I'm sorry but as much as I think LSD is teh best drug on teh planet this is teh most hideous advice ever.

If you have ahistory of mental illness, if you are prone to go to some emotionally or mentally dark places, if you have anxiety or insecurity issues LSD can go very very very bad if not taken with awareness and with ideal "mind set and setting"

But yeah, if you're familiar withteh idea of blowing yrou mind and are able to realise that weed, pills and coke do not even remotely compare to LSD then you may have a fantastic time.

read a lot abotu it and self evaluate yourself. It may be teh most amazing experience of yrou life. BUt respect teh drug... it could also be teh worse. Its YOUR minds potential it unlocks. in a rather crazy unstable manner. everythign is in your head.

 

How can you have been "tripping" for 5 years if you've only done pills, coke, and weed?

 

exactally...get into a really good mind set with a superb surroundings..and you're garunteed not to have a bad trip...unless you hate that shit.

 

I sure wish that was true.

 

Ok I think the main thing with acid as that it is known for its colourful visual hallucinations, but the psychedelic experience is not all about hallucinations there is a whole mental aspect wich is often ignored. you see acid changes your thought processes, it exaggerates emotions, and as stated before, it creates a new reality in your mind. Why do acid you say? why not try it, I would encourage everyone to have a psychedelic experience at leat sometime in thier life. Just try one tab to start with.

 

I would like to try acid too, but I'm little bit scared of flashbacks... I don't want to have any long time/permanent effects, so I preffer shrooms.

 

You're pretty much just as likely to get flashbacks with shrooms...

Psilocybin and LSD are quite similar, though LSD is obviously a lot more potent.

 

You havnt "tripped" unless you've done acid. Mushrooms you get the tripping feeling on and off, but acid is a full blown intergalactic trip for half a day. And you shouldnt be scared of doing acid because you MIGHT have a bad trip. Bad trips can be quite bad, but are also quite good depending on what way you look at them. Either way, coke, e and all that jazz is just noise compared to the sweet orchestra of LSD.

 

I agree with most of what you say but when you suggets you dont trip on shrroms i say you haven't taken enough.

Ridiculous to suggest you don't trip on shrooms.

and although i believe bad trips can be good for people if they or someonethey know are able to look atthem form an analytical point of view, this isn't always teh case and people can indeed have bad, stright bad, not good unresolvable bad trips.

but yeah love the "sweet orchestra od LSD" comment.

 

well i have done other things.. but what i mostly have greater knowledge and experience on is those three.. but yea ive done shrooms (like 3 times or so), G (once), n K (a couple of numerous times) n liquid mdma (which i loved btw), but with acid i dont know ive always been scared of it.. probably cuase like u guys mentioned before its something that is completely mind blowing..

but thanks for all the advice ill keep it in mind..

i think i might actually consider it.. i just have to wait for the right moment though to make it a lovey n unforgettable experiece.. =)

 

im going to try acid for the first time next week! im getting 5 hits of some pretty decent power stuff and im going to do it up in the boundary waters on a canoe trip with my cousin! he is gonna be on the ganj and i will be blown away (hopefully). iv only done shrooms once before and then just weed so i am excited, i am a close follower of the teachings of terence mckenna (and tim leary i guess) so i hope it will be a very spiritual and mind-expanding experience

 

Don't take all 5 at once. 2 max. And give your cousin a hit or 2. That itself will potentiate both your trips.

 

i definately agree u have to prepare make sure ur in a familiar environment with friends and have somebody who is sober do your research and only take 1 remember u can always take more next time.

 

5 hits of potent acid on your first time, and you're canoeing?

You've got balls. Or you think you do

Plus your poor cousin the difference in trip will be so much different if hes just tokin the ganja. share that shit you'll both be happy you did.

 

a strong dose of good mushrooms (1/8-1/4) always makes me trip harder then 3-6 hits of acid

 

i've trips many many times and never have experienced a flashback. i don't know anyone who has had one either.

 

Yes my friend, when people wake up and realize that the entire concept of a flashback is yet just another peice of propganda inspired with the intention to plant the seed of fear in your heart, the world will grow that much closer to the Light.
