Opinions - Am i ready for LSD?

[theshiftyshaman]

swim has recently been trying some psyhcadelics(Mushrooms and Salvia) and is eager to try the daddy of mind expansion LSD.

But he is a bit nervous to be honest. And was just wondering

-will being nervous give swim a bad trip?
-how does it compare to Salvia and Mushrooms?
-is he ready?

It is possible but swim would say unlikely unless you really work yourself up about it, such as taking it and then 30 mins later when feeling the first effects panicking because you don't want to have the trip anymore and running around like a mad man.

Those two drugs make for a good experience base in swim's opinion. For swim, LSD tends to be more of a mental trip than schrooms which is more of a physical high, although everyone reacts differently.

On whether LSD is at all similar to salvia...

Before embarking on psychedelic adventures with LSD it is strongly recommended that a goodly amount of research is done.

There is an extremely useful (if I do say so myself ) thread here...

which summarises the main threads/themes here in the LSD forum, and which might provide a good starting point

Salvia is filthy shit...

Shrooms can be good...

Just do it in a comfy setting and swiy will be fine
