ive been pestered to take a acid trip with a few of my mates this saturday night, i don't take drugs much at all these days, the rare line of coke here and there, ive had acid once before (nearly 2 years ago) and i got the usual feelings of vertigo, walls breathing, distortion, shapes etc but i didn't think it was that mind expanding or anything amazing, it was just good. I'm a bit weary of taking drugs cos my brother has psychosis and we think it was drug induced because he used to smoke loads of weed and do loads of Class A's. and i know metal illness runs in families so im a bit scared of developing it myself understandbly. Anyway, my mates are raving on about these new trips they have, saying they will blow my head off and i have to admit im tempted to do it one last time, im moving abroad in 4 weeks and thats gonna be a fresh start for me, will one trip damage me? Is it gonna mangle my brain? what you folks gotta say? what have your experiences been on acid? ive heard some horror stories before as well
Great logic for taking acid If you have to ask a message board, you might be better off not fucking with it. And its not going to mangle your brain. But it can cause a lot of psychological problems. IMO it doesnt sound like you have done enough research..
If you have doubts, don't take it. I had doubts the last time I tripped and I would NEVER do it again!
It's not that it will hurt you...but if you do it and feel iffy from the start, it can lead to a very bad trip.
Why did you even ask us? It sounds like your mind is made up and you are just looking for reinforcement. so just make sure youre in a good mindset and trip then.
Your environment and the people you are with are important when you trip. If the people you are with are positive and grounded you can probably expect a positive experience. It is all in your focus. What are you looking for? My experiences range from life changing Spiritual insights, that have altered my world ,to having a telepathic conversation with a chocolate donut. But I have done a whole lot of acid in my life.
