Hallucinogenic Drugs

[ashonfire]

Does anyone here have much experience with this stuff?

I took acid (and MDMA) at a party on the weekend and it was the most amazing thing ever. I've had acid and magic mushrooms a few times before and it's been an almost life-hanging experience each time. It's like taking a journey through a part of the world that doesn't normally exist. When I eventually sleep (trips can last a while so it's often an all night kinda deal) I always wake up feeling refreshed.

I don't drink much these days, I don't smoke cigarettes or weed anymore, and amphetamines bore me but there's something about hallucinogenics that really thrill me and sometimes I feel they may have a valid place in our society.

Of course it's not all rosy, some people I know who have taken them regularly are clearly one cock short of an orgy if you know what I mean. The same can be said of some heavy drinkers, stoners and amphetamine users I know.

In short, the occasional wander through the doors of perception is a glorious thing.

Discuss (or don't).

Hallucinogenic Drugs, never took them before.

Where do you get them.

 

[ashonfire]

you get them from spaced out hippy throwbacks, usually. or you pick them yourself.

I've had acid (LSD) twice, I think.

The experiences were amazing, but I'm glad that I wasn't alone either time.

I imagine any number of things might happen and it's good to have someone else there.

If I KNEW that I would have a marvelous **and safe** trip, I'd drop acid in a New York nano-picosecond. However, I'm aware of what bad trips can do, because they've been described to me before. I don't think it would be safe for me to take a strong hallucinogenic, if I'm going into it with those perceptions of bad things that COULD happen - I fear the possibility that something could indeed become a self-fulfilling prophesy.

I'm still a pretty strong guy, and if I were to suddenly go into a bad trip and get the idea to gouge out my eyes to make the hallucinations stop, I seriously doubt that even 2 people would necessarily be successful in stopping me. (Yes, this is a description I've heard, of a particularly bad trip.)

Typical doses in the 1960s ranged from 200 to 1000 µg while street samples of the 1970s contained 30 to 300 µg. By the 1980s, the amount had reduced to between 100 to 125 µg, lowering more in the 1990s to the 20–80 µg range.

I've done tabs twice, but didn't experience anything special. There likely wasn't even any LSD in them, just bromo-dragonFLY and dirty adulterants. It's a shame that I'll probably never know what a real LSD experience is like.

I just love doing shrooms I laugh my ass off for hours I have not done them in a while. I always wanted to try acid, but was always scared that I would have a bad trip so I never did

I'm told bad acid trips don't happen all that often. I haven't had one so far (but then I did acid only twice) and several more experienced acid takers I spoke to never had them either. I wouldn't let that deter you from taking acid.

Just take the same kind of precautions you would if you were going to take shrooms; having enough time, making sure beforehand you aren't bothered, having some juices and weed ready (pre-rolled) and most importantly feeling okay before you start your trip.

I'd love to do acid again, but I have no idea where they sell it here, and no one I know does. (unlike XTC, GHB, GBL, coke and heroin that you can get anywhere).

Haven't done it since 1970. Did I mention that I haven't done it since 1970?

A few days ago we took E and we were at a sauna. I swear the tiles in the steam room were coming out of the wall, and im pretty sure the recycling bin was hitting on me :-S

I hope you made sure you were well hydrated. Otherwise it could have been very dangerous.

 

[GlamPunkCouple]

Oh yes we had 3 water bottles. it was very warm in there.

You don't have much to worry about, acid trips are easier to control than shrooms, especially considering today's doses.


P.S. Marry me?

Shrooms. Red Rocks in Denver, CO. While at a String Cheese/Allman Brothers concert.

Life changing.

 

[Harke the Boeotarch]

Seriously?

And I always went along with the shrooms because I was terrified of Acid.

And I go and have a bad trip on shrooms.

What happened?

I've always wanted to see a concert there!!!

I'm never in Denver at the right time of year...

So, some are saying that trips on 'shrooms are LESS controlled/controllable than trips on acid???

 

[bearfan]

Idk if you want the wholle rundown or not. But here.

Some girl, who was a catastrophe on her own decided that upon my first adventure into taking large quantities of shrooms, that'd it'd be a marvelous time to read my LIFE.
And Tell me about how I mask my feelings by doing drugs, and always apologize because I Feel that I owe the world.
Granted, if I Wasn't ina stupid state I would've told her that she was whack. Then I run out of the house saying "She's the only one who understands me!" and proceed to CRY and LAUGH simotaneously outside standing by a car.
And I wouldn't talk to anyone for a while as I kept walking away. going "Is this what's it's like to want to kill yourself? I think I snapped. I'm crazy. I snapped, it finally happened."

So I was all fucked up in the head that night.
I rolled a blunt and while taking out the insides of the dutch(the tobacco) i dumped of it into the broken up weed and sat there crying.

Needless to say.

If I do shit like that again, I'm going to be very selective of the few I Want to be around.


That, and TIME GOES SO SLOW, wtf? Really? Was I just crazy or (during the time where i was laughing and enjoying it)

Each minute went by SO SLOW it was great..

I stood there in the bathroom and stared at a painting on the wall for a good ten minutes, then I stared at the mirror for about forever wanting to kill msyelf, NOT ME Literally, my reflection. I'm a fuckin wierdo.

end of story. aha


And then i'm in the cab going home all fuckin wierded out. And my mom calls me at 2am like "I just won 3,000$ I'll be awake come talk to me!" :/

That's pretty hilarious. I can't stand looking in the mirror when I'm on drugs.

I've always wanted to see a concert there!!!

A 60s dose of LSD would be absolutely insane, but because of today's shitty quality acid, it's not as intense as a shroom trip. Higher dosage = more likelihood of a bad trip.

 

[pancake]

i love psychedelics
i wish more people would take them - it would change the world for the better

Let that be a lesson to you. Never do hallucinogenics around other people unless you feel totally comfortable with them (and they know).
