Experiences - Acid has no effect.

[Blake]

SWIM has taken acid tabs quite a few times but with no effect. Each time SWIM has tried, SWIM had a friend or two who took 1 or 2 tabs from the same batch and were tripping their faces off. Just a few days ago SWIM's friend took 2 and had a great trip. SWIM's friend gave SWIM 10 tabs from the same batch. SWIM took all 10 at once only to find that they had no effect. SWIM understands that there is a small percentage of people for whom some drugs have no effect. SWIM has never done mushrooms before and wonders whether it's even worth it to try. SWIM would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

Do your friends have an active imagination?

[Pinkavvy]

Could be a number of things. Perhaps you've always got bunk or fake doses and your friends have active imaginations or placebo effects. Could be that you're taking some form of anti-phsychotic or anti depresent that is causing you to not little to no effects. Could be you're the type of person that thinks that "tripping" is just in the persons head and is fake and you made this thread to see if you're right and see if anybody else admits to it not being real. (swip has actually met stupid people like this that think that because the one time they tried a bunk sugar cube they didn't get any effects so everybody must be making it all up.)

[Toltec]

You felt absolutely nothing, not even a grin? That's hard to believe, are you on any meds?

As Pinkavvy said>

Hmm. Swim has tried it 3 or 4 times in the past few months. SWIM will experience either nothing at all or very very minor and occasional effects (like brief changes in depth perception), and upping the dose doesn't seem to change things. SWIM's friends are experienced users and know the difference between imagination and a trip. SWIM imagines that acid is the type of thing that you don't have to ask yourself "is it working yet?" with. SWIM was on anti-depressants, but over a year ago. Other than that, just the occasional use of speed/meth/e. SWIM apologizes if this sounds rediculous but SWIM is not lying. The first time SWIM figured maybe it was weak or that maybe SWIM took it the wrong way, but after repeated tries (all spaced at least a month apart) SWIM is discouraged, which is why SWIM came here to ask.

how exactly did you take it? that is quite the thing to wonder. it is possible that you are getting tabs that are an amphetamine base raather than an ergoline (DOC DOB etc) and that you are experiencing a measure of tolerance from your amphetamine use. also tho considering you said you ate ten that means you would be dosing around 10-30 mg of said substance and that likely would crush you mentally as opposed to doing nothing.

curious as to the blotter type also. what sort of hits are these?

First time SWIM didn't know what SWIM was doing at all. The blotter paper stayed in SWIM's mouth for no more than 20 seconds. SWIM was at a club and nothing much happened outside of the typical visuals one would get at a club w/all the lighting and laser effects. Swim was also on E.

After that SWIM tried taking one while walking around the city at night. This time keeping the paper in SWIM's mouth (on tounge) as long as possible. SWIM imagined Times Square (nyc) would look stunning while tripping. Nothing happened even after SWIM took another one, except for some very mild paranoia later on at night.

SWIM tried acid yet again at a club, along with E and speed. SWIM felt the E and energy from the speed. Again SWIM noticed nothing visually out of the ordinary for a club setting.

Then this past Friday SWIM was back in a club and started off with 2 tabs. When nothing happened after a while SWIM had a drink, then washed it away with water right after in hopes that maybe the acid would hit SWIM late. When nothing happened SWIM began to take another, and another and another until SWIM had eaten all 10. This time for the most part SWIM let the paper desolve under SWIM's tounge. As SWIM undertstands it, 10 should have had made SWIM see the stars and the heavens. Yet again, SWIM didn't see anything too out of the ordinary in the strobe lit club setting.

SWIM doesn't know much about the different kinds of blotters. The one's SWIM had on Friday were small pieces of paper which were light purple (almost white). The paper pieces all had what seemed to be ink on them that looked smudged as if the paper had been soaked in liquid.

The only idea SWIM has left before giving up totally is to maybe try acid in it's liquid form. Think it's worth a shot?

[Pinkavvy]

you mentioned it was smeared. a profesional blotter with acid is not smeared. it sounds as though swiy's "friends" are printing up something themselves and trying to tell swiy it's acid.

[Herbal Remedy]

yea, never go for tabs that have smeared ink or dots on them, thats just shady... even if swiy's friends arent trying to rip you off, and they think its really acid, noone knows whats actually on those blotters...

[fatal]

if there is anything on the blotters it should be doing something at 10 hits regardless of if they are 1.5 mg 2C-I blotters or some such equally ridiculous thing.

[Blake]

Damn. I didn't know that about the smeared ink. I had thought about whether or not SWIM's friends were ripping SWIM off, but SWIM has gotten plenty of other stuff from them that works just fine. SWIM's friends aren't dealers though. They just know dealers so they're not making this stuff themselves. SWIM supposes that could be a problem. SWIM is still doubtful though. All the other tabs SWIM has had have been plain pink pieces of paper.

[Blake]

Again, for nearly every set of tabs SWIM has recieved, others have tried from the same batch and the expected effects were achieved.

[Pinkavvy]

Yeah, or so they say. Or perhaps swiy is unable to trip on LSD.
We really don't need another thread of "what's this blotter; it could be ..." as there's been like 10 of those threads in the last couple weeks already.

Mmm. Point taken. SWIM will try one more time to get some quality tabs. SWIM's main concern is that there's cross tolerance between LSD and shrooms so SWIM wondered if shrooms too would be ineffective. SWIM had a shroom once but SWIM doesn't count that time b/c it was all rotten, dark and slimy. Nothing happened. SWIM didn't even get sick.

wow dude that sucks... swim really feels bad for you you should like find a proper place to buy your psychedelic drugs... slimy wet shrooms blurred sheets of phony acid... sheesh

Yeah \ . SWIM still agrees w/you though. 10 of whatever should have done something. SWIM did taste chemicals on SWIM's tounge with each tab. Now that SWIM knows what to look for, and what to stay away from, SWIM will find some decent tabs and mushrooms and report back in about 6 days as to whether or not there was any effect.

[Pinkavvy]

if there was a chemical taste, it wasn't lsd. but more importantly it probably solves the mystery of why it didn't effect you ... If it had a chemical taste, the chances are it's a PEA... and if you have a tolorance to amphetimines, PEA's will not work. it's swip's experience that if you have done meth within a few weeks of doing a PEA you will have no effects from it.

[fatal]

as swim had suggested in my earlier post it is likely that you are receiving amphetamine or phenethylamine based blotters and that your amphetamine use may have quelched your reaction to it. cross tolerance is a bitch.

[Blake]

You people are all so knowledgeable. Yeah, SWIM had an 11 day meth run (in very small doses each day) just a few days before the 10 tabs. Thanks a lot. Now SWIM can go out and try to find some real shit instead of BS.

[Herbal Remedy]

While SWiB may have found a reason to why he was not feeling the effects, SWiHR recommends SWiB still gives himself another two weeks (or more) before taking anymore tabs. After eating a shitload of tabs, which SwiB has no idea what they contained, you could end up eating some really strong LSD soon and still not feel the effects. The truth is there are too many variables, unknowns, possible cross tolerances n such that the best, smartest, and healthiest thing to do would be to take some time off before eating some tabs. If you want to get everything you can out of the experience, LSD is something that should be treated with respect, and not really taken so haphazardly... SWiHR wishes SWiB good luck and happy tripping. Be safe, peace...
