I will be taking acid for the first time this weekend. My only concern at this point is the fact that recently I've often been paranoid and insecure whenever I've smoked weed. I've tried shrooms about five times and once had what you could call a "bad trip." Do you think I'm any more at risk of having a bad trip on acid, and should I be wary? I've heard acid affects people differently than these other drugs? And are there any precautions I can take to make a good trip more likely? Thanks
Make sure you have proper set and setting with people who won't fuck with you. Preferably a house with the option to go venture if desired. Remember its just a drug, it doesn't control you, and don't analyze everything that comes your way. Just go with the flow. It may take a couple experiences but you'll learn how to control your visuals to a certain degree. Its very cool. The high is a lot cleaner than mushrooms, so the experience should be liked. Write a TR after.
weed creates way more paranoia than acid, acid gives lots of happy chems and makes you feel good. i always found mushies a much more serious exp with some difficult aspects. basically though if you take a few benzos before acid you'll feel the trip a bit weaker but it's pretty much guaranteed no anxiety trip. personally though i think you'll be fine, even when you have a difficult exp on acid after you feel so much more healed IME.
So what I'm hearing is good. It's comforting to know that if you get overly analytical and paranoid on weed you won't necessarily be like that on LSD. Is there any way to change the direction of a bad trip?
and drugs wear off Know it will pass. If you do run into trouble, its ok, it will pass. u wont be tripping forever and you wont be crazy for ever. allot of "bad tripp" stories you hear are just stories you hear. IME allot of people droping for their first time have this concern and i think its mostly just 'fear of the unknown'. I dnt know you but im sure ull have a good time. also when im tripping (LSD or other) and i get uncomfortable a comfy blanket never did me wrong :2thumbsup:
