advices for first time trip on LSD?

hello lainions i will soon try LSD for the first time along a friend who has already experienced it several times. the dosage will roughly be of 100 to 110 micrograms. do you have any advice to optimize the trip ? thanks

I get wanting to get the most out of it but without saying what you want to optimize the trip for we can only do so much. Like you could want to perform some shamanistic, spiritual self-healing or you could just wanna get fúcked up and see something crazy. I always suggest deep breaths and clearly stating in your mind what you want out of the trip. Sounds like the basic stuff like a good environment will be handled by your friend who's already done lsd.

>>18811 to be honest i don't really know haha. i mostly want the "euphoria" and "connection with the world" type of soykaf other people i know told me about

>>18810 Not much optimization. Just have vegetarian food ready and don't drink any tap water until around 30 minutes after dropping, ideally not at all. Vegetarian food is so you can eat while tripping, it's happened sometimes that people can't eat meat on acid. No tap water so it doesn't break down the chemicals in the tab, I think it was fluroide that causes this. Being in a calm environment with a trip sitter should sort out the rest. Of greater importance is what comes after. Don't make the mistake of treating whatever thoughts you have on acid as "divine" or worse "intelligent". You're high as fuarrrk pinballing around your subconscious, so harshly scrutinize everything you realize afterwards.Otherwise, you'll end up some acidhead hippie. Not cool, so be careful with psychs. If you get burned by them you'll stay burnt a while. >>18812 Wouldn't mushrooms fit your expectations of psychedelics more accurately? Not suggesting that you do them of course.

>>18814 i expressed my vision of acid pretty badly on my last message, but i basically want to try most psychedelics. i don't really have one big goal using acid, i mostly want the "experience" itself (again that is a pretty bad description, but i suck at descriptions). thanks for your advice ! i tend to be pretty "cartesian" (this again is a pretty soykafty choice of word), so this part shouldn't be a problem. i'm skeptical of most "divine" interaction, like McKenna's soykaf on DMT for example.

>>18815 >basically want to try most psychedelics I felt the same for a time as well, but my desire completely fizzled out after a while. I thought about it seriously and never saw any benefit; any thrill-seeking/personal development can be found in other places, and in regards to therapeutic use it hasn't helped me even with that intent. Speaking for myself of course, if you find it to actually be useful (without deluding yourself), power to you. Have fun with it n make a thread after detailing how it went. >i'm skeptical of most "divine" interaction, like McKenna's soykaf on DMT for example. Dunno anything about that, I've read some funny stories on erowid but thats about as far as I've gone in terms of hearing others experiences.

>>18818 Interest fizzling out also happened to me for a couple of years after doing acid and shrooms a few times. This year I've gotten interested in psychedelics again and I've finally found some good company to trip with.

>>18810 the usual advice: 1) only in a good setting (e.g: an environment YOU control, not somebody's bedroom with their parents/roommates wandering in) 2) only with a good mindset (e.g: not after your mom just died, at least not for a first time) 3) only at a good dose (1 tab sounds good here) 4) only with good people (e.g: your friend better be ride or die, and his soykafty cousin shouldn't be there) 5) only for a good reason on 5, i'll say the same thing i always say, which is you should wait 2 weeks-2 years, read some religion/philosophy, do some thinking, and then come back to the psychs on acid vs other psychs: as a mushroom user, personally i found LSD underwhelming probably better for a "baby's first psych", but i dunno and the legs on it just go on and on... >>18814 re: vegetarian food i can second this somewhat, you want easy to eat soykaf that won't bug your stomach, and tasty healthy stuff i'd recommend: - saltines - fruit (2+ varieties) - a nice loaf of bread re: tap water never heard this, don't believe it for a second. please stay hydrated while tripping. also if you are worried about adulterants, (no clue how common nbome's are anymore), you can GUM the tab instead of swallowing it, and spit after 20-30 minutes (bitter=spitter)
