Effects - 1st time LSD

[vicvega]

Hello everybody,

I've been thinking about trying LSD lately, I've been known to the drug since I was a kid but never tried it, only now there was a friend o'mine who did it once and loved it, and I may get some for free.

But still, I'm a little afraid because the high lasts A LOT of time, so I wanted to ask you a few things as a beginner:

- Is it okay to eat only a quart of the acid? Will it hit me softly, or will it run out earlier?
- Is it okay to eat it at home with some friends, or should we be out?
- What are the good things to try on acid? For what I've known people party a lot, but I'm not that kind, I was just thinking about staying home with some fine Jefferson Airplane, and other acid rock. (this is really my favorite band, I wasn't gonna ear it just because of the acid )
- What are the FLASHBACKS people talk about? And after a WEEK or a MONTH? What's up with that? Can I be driving, calmly going to work, and start hallucinating? That would NOT be good! For anyone!
- If I take only a quart of acid and I feel it's not that strong, is it cool to eat some more after that?

I love you all, so please help my first trip

I'm sorry, I didn't write that, my monkey got of the cage and I couldn't find him.
He loves to write stuff, yesterday he wrote Othello and Romeo and Juliet, I didn't think he would come to this website.

Sorry all.

if your monkey uses the search he will find all the info he needs.

As to the monkeys questions- first off- swims turtle supposes by "quart" monkey means a quarter hit and not a quart of liquid

Swims turtle says if you have reservations, then certainly try a half or 3/4 hit to start. Taking more within the first hour or two would be fine but later would be less fruitful.
But mostly dosage affects the intensity more then the duration.

As to location- turtle would definitely recommend home- someplace comfortable and safe for the first time.

Flashbacks seem to turtle to mostly be a myth, he has never known a turtle,aarrdvark or monkey to have one, and most of these creatures he knows have done monsterous amounts.

Read up, have fun, and be safe. Just don't have someone throw the radio in the tub at the peak of white rabbit

AH! Thanks for the advice.

My monkey was on MJ probably and said "quart" instead of "quarter".
Or maybe it's just because he's an idiot.

He meant a quarter of acid!, he's monkeyfriend said he got a little piece of "paper" and cut it on half and divided it with some other ape.

My monkey was thinking about cutting it on a quarter (1/4).
Is that too weak? He notices your turtle advised him to do 2/4 ou 3/4.

And he hopes no monkey throws a radio at him, at any point. but he says he's cool about waking up with a Z in the forehead.

without knowing how strong the hits are swims turtle cand advise much- avg potency a 1/4 would be pretty week- probably more of a speedy feel then anything. But if they are particularly strong a 1/4 could be about right, though probably still a little on the weak side.

Swims turtle recommends abandoning yourself to the experience- there is really nothing to fear, and if it a bit long then you get to enjoy one of the best sunrises you will ever experience.

Its very unlikely 1/4 of a blotter will do anything. 1 blotter is likely to not produce much effect. SWIM always starts with 1 and half blotters for testing there strength.

Because most people these days just wanna buy weed and cocaine etc to get high. and so dealers just want to sell these drugs because of their popularity, because at the end of the day dealers are there just to make money, and also the fact that LSD is extremely hard to synthesize. SWIM wishes he lived in the 60's, but those days are long gone, hopefully in the future popularity of lsd might go up again someday

The best things to do on a trip are to chill in a very comfortable enviornment away from authorities that would frighten SWIY. Make sure everyone is chill with each other, no one messes with each other, and that you NEVER isolate someone from the group. This could freak them out and cause a bad trip. Music such as Slightly Stoopid, Infected Mushroom, MGMT, Incubus, Sublime, and the Beatles are great. If SWIY not relaxed, try smoking a bowl or a few cigarettes to calm your nerves. If SWIY have any doubt about tripping, don't do it.

ahhh, always the same questions. here's how it's going to happen. You'll take a hit, maybe a half, depends on what your friend thinks you should do. You'll think your trippin in about 15 min. but wait another 45 and you'll realise what you just went through was the placebo effect. You'll want to listen to some music, dance around a little, and laugh A LOT. Everything will become interesting, especially hand movement and their interactions with the enviornment. around 2-3 hours into the trip, you'll realise you want MORE. A couple hours later, maybe 4-5 you'll start to get used to it, not laugh as much, and act normal. Don't worry you'll still be trippin. Beware though, once you see someone new, you'll laugh your ass off right in their face. Sober people are increadibly awkwardly funny, and to someone, hopefully a friend, you'll make an ass of yourself from laughing.

As for the setting, go outside, but have a house to go to later, you'll want a comfy place to sit. Oh, and if you are outside, bring a blanket. Trust, you'll thank me later. Clouds durring the day and lights at night are where it's at, swim's had a lot of fun with both.

For as far as flashbacks go, it's all a mental thing.Flashbacks work the same way vietnam vets get flashbacks. LSD is a traumatic experience (don't worry, it's normally a good thing) and those memories will stick with you forever, just like war. They might happen, but they're not severe. Maybe a little body sensation or a color flickering. Nothing that could get you killed, nothing to worry about, especially off a single trip. Hope this helped out

Very informative post with good tips. I like the placebo effect statement.
