ok here is my problem. the only people that i have to do acid with is this guy i grew up with. but, every time we trip, all he cares about is "getting fucked up". He doesn't like to meditate or think or anything. He just runs around from place to place telling people he's fucked up wooo hoooo. And then the next couple of weeks afterwards if I try and talk about some deeper aspects of my trip he just looks at me like im crazy. so I've never done acid by myself before and Im a little scared. I really don't have anyone to trip with though that will want to participate with me. So doing it by myself seems like the only thing I can do. do you guys have any nooblet tips?
you will have a much better trip alone than with your friend. set and setting is very important. if anything he was bringing you down and you didn't notice. you will have a better time without him for sure. tripping alone can be difficult for some people. i love it - no problems at all. i don't think there is anything to be afraid of but then again i don't know you very well. whether you trip alone or not you need to find other people to trip with. a social life is important and it is always best to have at least one person who is on your level to trip with sometimes. you will get lonely if you are the only one around you who gets it. find someone who is on the same page when it comes to psychedelic drugs. of course you will never find anyone who agrees with everything you do but you know what i mean. or you can always try to snap your buddy out of it!(if that is possible) have you told him what you really think of him?
I second the idea that alone is usually best, the more control you have over your setting the better, you will worry less and will usually have a deeper, more rewarding experience.
The first time I tripped alone (the days before cable TV), there was a Jerry Lewis movie marathon on overnight, and not much of anything else. Everyone I knew was asleep. I watched every movie, and laughed my ass off, and had a really good time. At no point did I feel uncomfortably anxious or anything, but that's me.
tripping alone is fun. whatever you do, don't drop acid and hang out with people who aren't tripping. that's asking to have a bad trip usually
Not unless you can percieve both divine and human worlds. Anyway I LOVE tripping alone, it defeinetly is better and you can really get into some deep thought processes.
interesting. So your saying as long as you can tell the aspects deemed "divine" and "human" apart then hanging out any sort of people will not be an issue. What is percieving the divine world like for you?
It is the best if you have somebody to share everything you feel. I tried to trip alone and it is boring for me, it is not scary at all, but I am used on full telephaty, saying the profound sentence that just came in to your mouth and plenty more things that go together when you have a soul mate to trip with. I am just too used to that, and for me taking it alone is pointless, but thats again me. One thing I really agree, it is better to trip alone than with some ass who is bringing you down, but that also depends on dose. I can easyly drop 1 or 2 and go to the party and have plenty of fun, but if it is serious dose, the best thing is to have soul mate to trip with, or if nobody available- alone.
i find it strange when i realize i still have to pee, i'm still human and humans must urinate sometimes. haha i'm sorry but i'm being honest. acid alone is way way way better than acid with a total gimboid. i'd rather do it in the day than at night, unless i wanted one of those dark lonely night time trips (which can be beautiful, but can also be terrifying). i'd want to be out somewhere, just walk around all day, duck in to stores and look at stickers or birthday cards, or buy a milkshake, or sit and watch people... with a walkman (yeah i know they're obsolete) and some good sunglasses to hide behind. that's the greatest.
ya man peeing and pooping on any psychadellic is just weird its like 'woah wtf is my body doing' it feels so foreign to conciousness then your body just starts doing it... like watching a plant or something
I've never done acid, but when I have to pee while tripping on mushrooms is way too strange for me. It's like doing something I've never done before. I always sit and contemplate the idea and I go into a you can do it, it'll be ok meditation process. The bathroom is always so alien and I feel like I've been transported into another dimension. Once I'm done I feel like I've conquered a level from a video game.
