I cannot express how awesome it would be if you saw a bunch of chibi-style Fox News anchors marching out of your bedroom, a floating Neocon sign, and Bill O'Reilly coming out of your couch and grabbing you, trying to swallow you whole in your own couch.

Whew! Think of the hallucinogenic consequences before you take this pill. You're scared of neocons now it clearly shows, I'd hate to see you on a acid trip.

Why dont some of you take a few hits and write about here on freeones while trippin out.
thought could be entertaining.

If they wrote a book called the "do's and dont's of the acid/mushroom tripper in you", there would be 2 movies that would be the cardinal sin to try to watch when tripping. 100% guaranteed to make shit go wrong.....can anyone tell me what they are? Try,if not, hints will follow....

Do - not do drugs.
Don't - do drugs.

And yet, you have a bottle of Hennesey in your avi? Do you realize that Alcohol is more lethal - in withdrawal - than drugs like heroin? Man alcohol is ruthless, I can attest after years of chronic abuse.

OP -

I got pretty messed up on some strong Ecstacy a few years back, and years before that I did 'shrooms a couple times. That shit can be really intense if you don't watch the dose you take. I have some best friends that are pros when it comes to droppin' acid. They used to do it quite a bit. My boy Dave like acid but tried some pretty heavy ecstacy once and freaked out. Go figure. They get like liquid micro-dot, like the acid in liquid form, in a squeeze bottle, and drop it in their eyes. I never had the balls.

Bottom line: if you have a strong mind it will not be a problem, but if you don't you could wind up thinking you're a potatoe chip, like some fruit over here years ago did when he smuggled a sheet in his sock and, yeah, well, you get the picture...

Another thing I found was that when I had a semi-bad trip on 'shrooms was that having a good bottle of hard liquor - some good Jim Beam or otherwise -helps to aleviate and unwanted chemistry You Might have when you drop. That's just my 2 cents, but I think it calmed me big time.

If I were you I'd try like a half a pill of some decent ecstacy first or even a low dose of shrooms just to get a feel for it. If you want to totally FUCK your life for good, try some oxy's (heroin for beginners) and in due time you will be shootin' up that hair-owe'on.

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.

Sage advice from a child of the 70s! :bowdown:

Be careful of the setting and your frame of mind as FOMM said and it can be a very enlightening and spiritual experience. I must warn you however....it ain't for everybody and some people just plain aren't mentally or emotionally capable of handling it so be very, very careful about the atmosphere surrounding your first trip. There is always a possibility that you may not like it so be in a safe place surrounded by people you trust in case things go badly.

One other piece of advice: I absolutely WOULD NOT recommend using LSD (or mescaline, psilocybin, peyote or any other hallucinogen) as a drug to be used as a means of escape as it is going to greatly accentuate your awareness of the realities of your life rather than dull them or make them seem more distant or less relevant. Quite the contrary. If you want to escape, don't do acid.

My guess is you're gonna have a bad trip.
Do something to make your life better instead of making it worse.

You mean like read a book or take some classes... or (God forbid) develop the social skills to go out and meet people and have fun?! What kind of weirdo are you???!!! You're a square, man.

Drugs, man... that's where it's at. Clear yo mind, baby!
Turn on, tune in, drop out.

The true thing about acid is...there are no cliches about LSD.
Some chemists do the process better than others, and some have better processes than others (see Owsley); different people react to acid, weed, alcohol, and girlfriends differently and will have varied reactions.
The most common determining thing I found is the person taking the hit...and the dose to a lesser degree.
In the early '70s I did a bit of volunteer work on a hotline for druggies freaking out at home or somewhere near a phone...I brought many down easily using verbal cues, and some had to be rescued, but the one thing all had in common was the LSD was a mental thing, you can control the reaction you have to whatever level of stimulation you experience.
I ate 6 freshly plucked from a Texas cowpasture psylocibin mushrooms once...and I was in Sgt. Pepperland for hours...actually pretty cool.
LSD never had anywhere near that effect on me the many times I partied with friends or by myself on 1 or 5 hits ...I brought 200 hits of Clear Light to a small Israeli town once, and every traveler and counter-culture boy and girl had the BEST time...people were sitting there smiling to themselves or at each other...all night. There was a glow emanating from the Dead Sea Cafe you could see. So...
Do what you want, see what happens. If you're a total weak-minded flake, you may work through it, or lose your safety switch and go all the way into psychosis-ville.
Life is an adventure...but you gotta show up.

So...exactly why did you negative rep my info post on LSD?

Personally, I think everyone should neg rep you for nearly every post you've made; but ...care to explain how even your twisted Neo-brain thinks my post deserved neg rep?

Your...name...is...John...Doe...

...you...live...at...14th st....and Sycamore. :rofl:

Yeah, my cousin tried that shit on me when I first took a serious hit of Ex and it sort of worked. When someone goes off on a bad one you're supposed to tell them stuff like that - their name, their parents' names - stuff like that.


I remember when that shit kicked in, we were in a record store buying old vinyl (cousin's an old hippie from the 70's) and I was like WOAH. I had to shit so bad I ran across the street to the 7/11 and they couldn't find me for a little while. The good old days...

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

But my life is so miserable and I need to take drugs to escape reality! :tongue:

:helpme:

Fuck ACID dude, the shit out there is probably bunk and you will get a bad trip or worse. You should try shrooms instead. :spin:

 

[Mrs Jolly]

One thing to remember is that the acid is the drug in charge - you can drink like a demon when you are on it and you won't fall asleep or feel the effects of the booze. Stay away from the ale. It will just fuck up your body. Same for anyone who likes to take the edge of with a joint at the same time. Stay with the one drug. You don't want to be coming down and having the worst hangover of your life at the same time.

Like everyone else says stay away from stressful people and places. If you have pals who like to pull pranks on each other when they are out of it stay the fuck away from them.

Lastly if you are a person who gets frustrated by lack of control this is not your drug. Once it kicks in are just along for the ride.

 

[StanScratch]

First time I did it, I wrote a little ditty called Tomorrow Never Knows.
I STILL don't know what the fuck that song means!

 

[lurkingdirk]

Acid makes you have those mornings where you wake up laying naked on the hood of your car with your keys up your ass.

I'd avoid it. You don't know where those keys have been.

Dude, you guys are all actin' like a bunch of pussies. Seriously, have you a friend or someone you can relate to who's taken the drug? It might be theraputic to some, ever thought about that?

I hear you on the 'shrooms though, it's more natural 'cause it's "of" nature. Someone who wants to do 'shrooms should get a book for dumbies so they can pick them out of hte cow shit; you know, like we do up here in the Midwest. :hatsoff:

Hell, just talkin' about all this shit just makes me want to try 'shrooms again.

 

[Boobinator]

Thanks for all the helpful replies... I'm pretty set on taking it, can't help my curiosity really. But I've taken all the concerned replies into consideration too

Might try shrooms another time, they grow densely (dense?) where I live, but have to wait for the summer.

 

[HELLRAISER]

I highly recommend you read books by The Most Honorable Dr. Hunter S. Thompson who wrote about his experiences with acid. May he Rest In Peace
