OK, so I have finally made my decision to do acid this weekend, after researching it quite a bit, but I heard from someone that after doing it, it could take you 3 days to recover and that you should only do it when you don't have anything planned for the next 3 days kind of thing. I had never heard of this before and couldn't really find anything about it online. I am assuming it's not true but has anyone heard of this or have any ideas. Also, my buddy heard this and decided that he would do shrooms instead of acid this weekend, but i was wondering which has less of a recovery time, so which one you would feel better the next day kind of thing.
You will never recover to pre-acid self.. you will though have reduced tolerance 3+ days after for another great trip.
yea, no my buddy just told me that you will like not be able to do anything really for 3 days after, like school, work etc... not acid again.
3 days?? That is weird. There is no problem waking up and being normal the next day, assuming you went to bed at a good time. I would feel 100% comfortable taking a moderate dose of acid at noon and working the next day at 8. You don't need that much time to 'recover'.
On small doses, I'm perfectly functional after 8hrs of sleep. On Medium to large doses, there will usually be a little bit of a headspace the next day, but I'm still functional.
he may have been driving at getting the most possible from the experience. there is an extent of neural plasticity in the days following the trip, in which it's opportune to establish new thought and behavior patterns that are more valued by the tripper. While it's true that you never really recover from acid, more of the experience can be retained by setting aside 2 or 3 days for it to integrate more. but it doesn't matter and not everyone needs to do it that way to get the positives they need. it's nice to not have to work the next day and just reflect and savor the experience, but you're still fully capable of working or whatever you need to do.
You'll be able to do those things but your mood and view on life will be different. You just had a really emotional and spritiual experience the next day can be anti-climactic. At that point you feel like you should have taken more.
3 days is a good amount to rest after doing LSD. This is really not the kind of thing you do on your one day off, if it's your first time. If you're experienced, you know what to expect, and even then you will probably not be squishing in acid use during really important things (other than like easy work or school or whatever, but nothing serious). It's true man, just do it on a friday where you have the whole weekend off. You will be very, very thankful you did that. Especially if you dose late at night not being prepared for how much energy it gives you. What's your drug experience?
it took me months to recover from my last trip mentally.... I sat in my room feeling like i discoverd a entire civilization of little people under my bed sheets
I think it is very possible that the reason people take a couple of days to recover is because people tend to trip at night and skip a night of sleep. therefore it fucks you up for a couple of days if you, like me, dont bother sleeping the next day and wait until night.
i would recommend not having anything planned for the next day. i usually dont sleep at all after i do acid so ill be really strung out the next day and not want to do anything
My god maybe i did go immensly insane...Time to buy alot of pesticide...But that whole feeling is gone...
Yep, never tripped during the day before, should be a blast Probably next week if I can get an absolute guarantee I won't have to work (a real buzzkill that, having your boss ring up and ask you to do a shift). I mean, I've worked on LSD before but it wasn't very fun, I was constantly thinking 'fuck, I have better places to be'.
In my experience, you just need a good day's rest. After the trip you are gonna be a little burnt out from your mind being on overdrive for 7-8 hours. Energy transference can take a lot out of a man. The worst part about coming down is you will probably be very tired, but you might also find it hard to fall asleep. I was absolutely exhausted after my first trip, yet couldn't go to sleep simply because I was too amazed/in awe to really pass out. Just give yourself one or two days to get back on schedule.
