I'd have to agree with wutthe4k on this one. I think starting off with high doses could be a mistake. It's kind of a hit or miss because I've known plenty of people who have started on high doses to be perfectly fine. I myself don't think I could've handle such a high dose my first time. If you have some kind of mental disorder or personality disorder, your best bet is not to take the chances with it all-together, it could just end up elevating your disorder further than it already is.
i don't have any disorders, nor do any of my friends, and none of us would ever fuck with really high doses. so i personally think all of you agreeing with the whole "start off with a high dose" are insane. either that, or the acid i've done is alot stronger than i've thought it to be. me personally...i flat out don't do acid anymore because of how horrible the last trip was that landed me in a mental hospital for 5 days. after an experience like that i find it hard seeing myself drop as much as one tab. as far as other psychedelics go, that's another story. but i still would never do a really high dose of anything. no more than an eighth of mushrooms unless they're weak.
your opinion is very close minded. just because it worked out for you doesn't mean it will for everyone else. you're not taking into consideration the fact that not everyones mind can handle such doses. espeically someone with no experience.
so now the truth comes out, you are afraid of large doses because lsd made you psychotic? dude get over it. everyone will have their trip. Dont be bitter about what has happened to you. Its not your responsibility to protect people from your own fate. I think its stupid to take that much simply because it would not be as fun as taking less and getting to know it. But most things people do are stupid and I would never want to make my life about stopping them. Because some of them have much better lives in the end than people who live in boxes.
ps. but taking half a hit is lame. pointless. never do it. unless you just want to have a nice day or something.
That's called microdosing. Hofmann talks about it in his book. It's quite the healthy choice! *WINK* Souluar Recalibration is a different story that dequires most of yourself . .
um should i not be? yeah everyone has "their trip" but i wouldn't even call this a trip man you have no clue how bad it was. my house was covered in blood with bloody handprints all over the walls it looked like a movie setting for Saw 5 or something. and uh...the "truth comes out"? all of you guys who are reading what i say are only replying to what you want to reply to and then are throwing it all together ultimately resulting in a message that is completely different than what i set out to make. for the second time: the mind can only handle so much when it comes to psychedelics and this is different for everyone. some people can handle alot and some can't. it varies from you, to me, to the next person. i know my limits and acid is just something that i don't want to do again purely because i don't like it's capabilites. but none of this changes the fact that you shouldn't suggest that a newcomer takes a high dose for their first trip. you don't know what their mind is like or how much they can handle. just because it worked out for you doesn't mean it will work out for them. i have experience with psychedelics and it wouldn't work out for me, nor alot of people that i know. therefore, you shouldn't assume just because of your experiences. and protect people from my fate? sure, the particular events that took place during that trip are my fate but plenty of people in the world could have just as bad of an experience and you can't tell by talking to them who these people may or not be. if and once it happens to them...it's their fate. so no, it's not my responsibility to protect people from my fate. it's my responsibility to protect people from the unknown and what could possibly be the worst fate they encounter. i care about other people's lives and i could never be so careless as to suggest something that could end up being one of the biggest mistakes they ever make.
let me clarify one last thing. my first acid trip i took one hit of decent gel tabs and i was glad i took a low dose to get a feel of it. my second acid trip which was about a week or so later, i took 6 of the same gel tabs along with 2 decent rolls and had the best day of my life. it was the most life changing day of enlightenment i've ever encountered. (no one start an argument with me about enlightenment. i don't wanna go there again. thanks =]) eventually i reached my most recent acid trip which was probably like my 8th one and i already said what happened and i'm never going near acid again. i just wanted to note that i'm not hating on the drug. i have experienced both it's best and worst moments to extremeties. i'm glad i've experimented with it and i believe all my trips on it have done me good, but it's not something i personally would like to continue using. it's for some people and not for others. for those who can use it again and again...in a way i envy you. i would love to have another trip like my second one however i would never attempt it again because it's russian roulette and i'm not one to gamble.
I have had two acid trips during my short lifetime and both times I have become more enlightened to who I am and I respect in my fellow people. During each of those trips I took 5 hits and it didn't have any negative effects towards me or my friends or family. I am not a heavy drug user, although I do experiment with mushrooms and lucy because each time i've done them I have been in the absolute perfect setting (music festivals) and each time is more and more beautiful. I truly believe more research has to be done on this beautiful chemical, and it has to be exploited to its maximum potential; not for profit but for wisdom and the true enlightenment that can happen when you use this wonderful chem.
if u do decide to try it do your best to stay calm an keep all the negativity away from your so yea keep the positive things in your mind like how much fun your havin on your trip Peace!
Been there with mushrooms several times, even after well over 100 trips, the mind is never strong enough to truly hold it's ground when mushrooms decide to throw your for a 'loop'. Now matter how deep we think the hole is, it goes much deeper God Bless +
That is like the kindergarten of bad trips wutthe. Any negativity you experience from psychedelics is your own negative karma to work out. Psychedelic drugs dont provide your brain with information they unlock the information for you that you already contain. Some people can take 10 hits of acid and sit in bliss, while others tuck into fetal position and beg for death. The answer should be obvious. God Bless +
Your a good man stalk, I end up loving people the most when my initial impressions of them are my own ego projections convulsing and wallowing in my own mud :tongue: God bless you friend and good health +
well even though stalk loves that post.. it doesnt really adress his point. He had an intense experience and doesnt want other people to experience the same even though he understands that not everyone will have the same thoughts as him. What we havnt been able to agree with is: whether a large dose of LSD first time is a possible starting point or a definate no-no. I dont think anyone can disagree with a small dose of LSD, if anything it is a waste of time or money or sleep. But a large dose of LSD.. what could one loose? Their mind? I would like to know if there is a linear relationship between the strength of a trip and the potential for making someone permanently crazy, or if if the potential for craziness is determined purely by a certain content of thought, as opposed to general trip-strength.
