most youve taken

Hell yea cosmicdust, that's the kind of trip I like taking. I wish it was still the 60's or early 70s, I was sucked out of another time in some outer space and put into this shite world lol.

 

Yeah, my dad has told me about acid in the 60's and 70's. He said it was pretty fucking amazing, and doesn't want to try the millinum's "bathtub" acid.


The most I have taken is like twelve or thirteen or something.

I completely agree.

 

Dam where the fuck are the ladies my age like you around here lol...A half or One hit would completely shatter most of the materialistic, ego-game playing girls I meet, maybe even send them to the looney bin. Once again I'm in the wroooooong decade in the wrong place lol.

 

i took four on halloween weekend and i have to say that i was really impressed. Thuogh, i would much rather spend the money on molly or shrooms.

 

peacelovebarefeet stated that "I've never been the same...", after puddling with "a crazy unknown amount of LSD from a couple of vials..." That's what a strong dose of LSD is all about! It's normal for LSD.


Tim Leary's first trip was with magic mushrooms, while vacationing at a sunny villa in Cuernavaca, Mexico (1960/age: 39 yrs. old). He concluded: "It was above all and without question the deepest religious experience in my life." His journeys to inner space convinced him that normal consciousness was "a static, repetitive circuit" (History repeats itself, doesn't it?). Conventional psychology was going nowhere, so he wished to expand to new ground.

Leary was involved with the Harvard Psilocybin Research Project, and at first, wouldn't touch LSD, worrying about the Social Relations department of Harvard, plus falsely believing that there was NO difference between psilocybin and LSD (due to similar molecular structures). Flo Ferguson convinced him to try some of Michael Hollingshead's "LSD paste", stored in a mayonnaise jar, while at Newton house. LSD paste in a mayonnaise jar? ("Whatever turns you on."/Jacob Smirnoff/comedian)

Leary's first LSD trip blew him away! He had a blank look (like TOO MUCH acid), babbled about a "plastic doll world" and "total death of self". His collegues thought Leary totally "lost it". When he came down, he simply said: "WOW!". He concluded that psilocybin was about LOVE, baby, while LSD was all about DEATH AND REBIRTH. I never met Leary, but one of my cousins said one of our relatives, has, or even knew him, personally.

That's why acid trippers feel like they're dying (or being poisoned, like in the book GO ASK ALICE). The loss of ego. The loss of self. But at the trip's end, REBIRTH occurs. This is why LSD is psycho-analytic. It can cause dramatic changes in people, usually toward the spiritual (I've found GOD, man!) and for the better. LSD psychotherapy has the highest success rate with alcoholics!

After my first LSD trip (w/4-way amber windowpane), I definately didn't feel exactly the same afterward, like peacelovebarefeet stated with her trip. I felt like I came back to a slightly different parallel time dimension (part of QUANTUM PHYSICS theory), but TIME and SPACE perceptions are an illusion, anyway. I also felt like I joined some sort of "cosmic club" by tripping on LSD! After a strong trip it's "normal" to feel that way.

I know it sounds bad, like: "I took LSD and I've never been the same." But what do non-trippers know, if they haven't had "the experience"? I don't know any trippers, personally, that have totally "lost it", but we know it has happened. The media's "propaganda" blew this idea up, i.e. as "scare tactics". Still, this "danger" (i.e. of a complete psychotic break) does exist with LSD, but way less than the Media states. LSD doesn't cause psychotic breaks, it just brings them to the surface, if they already exist. It's not good to have an "auto-suggestion" of "going crazy" before your trip, because LSD just amplifies and reveals what's inside of your head. Thoughts of PEACE and LOVE! Nothing seems 100% safe, anyway. You CAN O.D. on water, by drowning your cells! It's difficult, but some "X" (ecstacy) users have accomplished this! "X" and rave dancing causes rapid dehydration, thus you MUST drink enough water, or die from dehydration, but just don't way over do it.

Scientists don't know how LSD works! You don't trip on the LSD molecules, because they're in and out of your body so fast. It is believed that they set off a "cascade" effect, like falling dominoes, until the last domino (bio-chemical reaction) releases the final "tripping" chemical, which exists in your body, which is why there is that weird " quick tolerance" thing, i.e. your body's reserve of that chemical is depleted and the body must manufacture more. This final tripping chemical is just a "chemcial key", anyway. It just opens doors in your mind and the following results are just mental and spiritual effects It's a head trip, man! Just a theory (not my theory). Biochemistry is horrifically complex. Not my bag.

peacelovebarefeet's dad talked about "bathtub" acid. Like "bathtub Gin" in the roaring 20's. Alcohol is alot easier to make than d-LSD-25. In the HAIGHT-ASHBURY (S.F., CA) district, during the 60's, all LSD wasn't strong and pure. The Mob saw a money-maker and produced their own products, of course, they cared more for PROFIT, than QUALITY. This acid flowed around and the local hippies complained about "syndicate acid". At WOODSTOCK 1969, a bad acid was floating around called BROWN ACID. On the stage, it was announced: "Don't eat the Brown Acid!" They had crap back then, too, but alot less than today, which is almost all crap! Some say that marijuana has improved, though.

To peacelovebarefeet and her dad: Have you ever been to a Ann Arbor HASH BASH (since you live somewhere in Illinois)? I know people in the Chicago area. SIX FLAGS GREAT AMERICA in Gurnee, ILL rocks! I used to belong to the American Coaster Enthusiasts, i.e. ACE. Cool natural thrills.

I found one picture of myself at www.monroestreetfair.com. At the bottom of the webpage (on the leftside by NEW>>), click: Photo Slide Show 2004. I'm in the 6th picture (of 20 slides of the 2004 Ann Arbor HASH BASH). This picture has a blue tarp tent in the middle, in front of Casa Dominick's resturant and I'm in the extreme bottom, right corner, next to a hippie chick wearing a lime green sweater. I'm wearing a Woodstock 1969 emblem (red background with dove/guitar picture) on a jean jacket and a yellowish tie-dye baseball cap. Where's Waldo? www.photowithmonkey.com/node/4 has some cool, artsy, B&W photos of the 2005 HASH BASH.

Groovy, peace and love, man . . .
