First acid trip

Hi!
So I was wondering if anyone on the board is familiar with acid and could tell me what it's like the first time? I'm interested in drugs, and have been thinking of tripping for the first time soon.

Any dos or don'ts?

Thanks :)

Its a psychotropic drug which to me personally doesnt sound too cool as could fuck up your head. A bad trip on it would be seriously uncool as you could have nasty hallucinations. Tried other shit man so this aint no holier than thou attitude its just my common sense in reference to drugs...Stay away from heroine, stay away from the head melters.
 
It was a long time ago but here are a few tips.Do it with someone you trust who has done it before to act as your guide on the trip.Being in a good frame of mind in a place you feel very secure and comfortable is a must.LSD is not a recreational party drug,especially when your new to it.Bad vibes ,people who want to mess with your head can cause you to have a bad trip.Acid enhances and magnifys everything, good or bad.

My most vivid memory of my first trip was when I put on a record by the band "Mountain" and the song "Missisippi Queen" and the song started playing at what sounded to me at about 1/2 speed.I thought there was something wrong with my turntable but my guide let me know it was me not the record player but me that was messed up,thats when I knew this was some heavy stuff.
 
You say you're interested in drugs? This won't be the first drug you've taken is it??
No, certainly not. Did several opiates before and all the bullshit about getting hooked right away and all that are just lies. I can see why people get addicted to it though because it's very nice. I'm not prone to addiction though it seems. This would be my first psychedelic though.

Anyway, thanks for the good reply Friday :)
My friend told me that the hallucinations from acid are veeery exaggerated, but that it changes your perception of reality a lot. The important thing though is that you're aware of the trip the entire time, so you just "pinch yourself" and realize what's going on. He said that when he threw away his cigarette the time it took for it to hit the ground felt like a minute.

I'm just too curious to stay away, I'm responsible though.

I've done a lot of drugs, but never acid. I'm worried about having a bad trip. A friend of mine took it 4 years ago, he hasn't been the same since.

If its exaggerated hes been taking watered down stuff. I mean fucksake they tested this shit in nam and it seriously fooked up people. I guess its like pills though what you buy today isnt what was going about in the 90s.

Well assuming you mean during the Vietnam war, the slight difference is that I will be sitting at home listening to music, not torching villages and shooting asian people in the face with a rifle.

You know thats a very valid point.
 
Rent the 60s movie "The trip" with Peter Fonda in it to see what it might be like.It's out on DVD.

The hallucinations can be very wild but as your friend says, you come to realize it's the drug and get amused by them.Anyone who developes a problem from it was half way there before they did the acid.Don't do it as a drug to escape reality.You MUST be taking it to gain a higher level of consciousness and be in a good positive place.Any other mind set and you will have a bad time and regret it.

Did you ever do it or did anyone in your vicinity ever get a chronic psychosis from it?
a relative from a friend is in a mental hospital, he thinks or should I say he knows that he is a glas orange juice. I know it sounds crazy.. and so he is.

But the movie "The Trip" was great .. by the way. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is my favorite movie of all time .. and I got my reasons why :).

My advise is still: don't try it. But it's your decision.

Okay, I didn't mean to object to what you said, but wanted to hear if you had any special reason why you advised me not to. Yes, Fear and Loathing is an awesome film :)
 
The problem with taking acid these days is you'll not be taking true acid. What passes for acid now is mostly speed so you'll get wired out as if you did a big line of meth.

The 3 or 4 times I took it there was no tripping, just a slightly altered perception. Things will look shinier and maybe have auras around them and maybe your hearing will focus on odd things but that's about it. I doubt you'll really see things that aren't there like people used to say you would.

If you really want to have a good time and try something that will alter reality...my advise is to try mushrooms. That is some fun shit.

:cool:

Seems a bit odd to me. The amount of acid on a blotter is extremely small (seeing as acid is so potent), and unless the blot itself was made of some sort of fabric drug there's no way to react to substances from that little amount. Which in a way makes it safe since there are very few poisons or substances in the world that are effective in doses of drops.

And isn't what you describe (shinier things, auras etc) a pretty accurate description of a trip? :)
