I had the evening off at one point over the summer, so I decided to go camping with a few of my friends who were already doing so for the week. I drove down, and on the way smoked two bowls, one as soon as I left my house and one when I was almost at the campsite.

When I got there, I was hallucinating. I thought that there were two amish children standing at the far end of the parking lot, waiting to kill me when I left my car, so I ended up taking a golf club with me for protection. Also, the campsite sign said 'Umbrella Fantastic' as I entered, instead of 'Camp *****'. I walked to the campsite by myself, as it wasn't dark yet and I wasn't too disoriented, especially since I had been to this particular grounds many times before.

I met up with my friends, who nominated me to light the fire. Please take note that campfires and being well beyond stoned do not go hand in hand AT ALL, and I ended up with a few 2nd degree bruns on my hand as a result. I ended up giving the firelighting rights to another of my friends and I started telling stories - simple ones that I was familiar with, giving overly animated sound effects and being very outgoing and very loose in telling them. After my second story, I got up and went to stand by the water and watch the moon light up the night.

At this point I dropped three hits of medium-powered strip acid under my tongue and sat back to relax. There was a watersnake going over the water that was at least 6 feet long, something which was backed up by people around me who were sober.

About an hour later, I walked off into the woods, almost getting lost (although I didn't, thanks to the help of one of my sober friends), and I smoked another bowl to help sooth the pain of the burns on my hand, and then lay down on my sleeping bag in the canvas tent that the group was sleeping in.

As soon as I lay down, I could feel the LSD kick in. The music coming from my friend's headphones became louder and I felt as if my soul was struggling to dig in his direction to hear the music better. Soon enough, I could hear it all, and it blended with the crickets and the birds and the wind in the trees and for a few moments I could hear everything around me in perfect detail.

The canvas tent roof above me, a standard army green, began to subtley swirl and reverberate, swaying with the music.

I began to see rose-shaped fractals woven into the dull fabric of the tent, and I could see the weave as more than just the way the cloth had been made - it swirled and spun and linked every fiber together to make a protectorate roofing.

As the fractals and interwoven shapes got stronger and more apparent I began to close my eyes. I began to float, and I could not feel any of my weight acting upon the surface I was lying on. I was weightless. And then I fell asleep.

I slept on my back, which is very very rare for me, and I did not wake at all, which is good seeing as I commonly do.

I dreamed very little that night, seeing only vast black expanses lit by strange glowing shapes, floating around me like electrons in orbit. This went on for infinity, and the only remarkable things about the dreams were that I could feel and perceive everything around me as if I was one hundred percent sober and straightfaced, and also that my mind did not process any thoughts other than those concerning the absolute beauty of the expanse around me.

When I woke up I felt as if I was cleansed, and although my burns had turned to blisters, I could not feel any pain from them. After getting up and packing my stuff relatively quickly, I said goodbye to my friends, and drove home to eat a 'real' breakfast.

Guide to Not Doing Modafinil and LSD

I used modafinil for about one and half year to fight some not so serious attention defficit that was troubling me as long as I can remember. I wasn't prescribed any pills and had to rely on online pharmacies. It was annoying since their stock was not always avaible and once or twice I got some really weird stuff that I suspected to contain not enough of the substance. But most of this period I was equipped and on.

While on modafinil I experienced very productive period of super-edge focus, sufficent power-naps for a short break and general mood-lift that had to end someday. I gave up when I noticed that as a blogger, I'm much better substance free, than on modafinil. I was making things 'too synthetic' and people around me started to suspect that I'm more android than human.

I was making things 'too synthetic' and people around me started to suspect that I'm more android than human.

So I stopped taking pills, returned to my friends and little habit of smoking weed. Must admit, while on modafinil I avoided pot as much as possible. I was seriously concerned about the effect of the two combined together. I believe no harm was done, beside I took as much as 400x200mg pills altogether :)

Leaving this general retrospection of this substance I want to share one thought about combining it with LSD. I'm not experienced acid user, I took 5 or 6 blotters during last 5 years and last time I did it while on modafinil.

It was rather unpleasant. It was dull and emotionless. I spend the entire night lying on bed and watching some grey, brainfucking electonic saw projections on my wall. The acid reality was tasteless and it is maybe even worse than bad-trip. I consider modafinil as substance that blocks the better part of me and therefore don't care about it anymore.

I'm lazy and goofy again and that's cool.

As an age seasoned partier, I often think back to my 20s when acid tripping was a common weekend activity. Often yearning for those happy days. Now my life was work and care filled for my dear wife and other commitments. When an old friend mentioned he scored some blotter, I could not resist a trip after nearly 2 decades of sobriety. My wife was gone for a weekend on a business trip so I went for it.

On a saturday about noon, I dropped 2 hits of the blotter, I turned on the tv without sound and set the stereo to a classic rock station. After an hour of thinking maybe it was bogus blotter. I felt a tingle of excitement creeping over me. As the pattern in the carpet began to dance with the music, I felt warm all over. Like an old friend gave me a hug. I watched the tv characters fumble through their roles. I even began to understand what they were saying despite the music. Everything they did was unusually funny and I rocked with laughter. I never felt so good, I was in complete control of my mind.

I never felt so good, I was in complete control of my mind.

 As the walls shimmered and vivid color patterns danced on the wall to the music, I wondered why I had feared returning to acid land. I was the trip master. I was at the top of the world.

It was now about 3 hours after dropping, and I noticed objects in the room seemed out of place. The picture of my wife was hanging on the wall, but it was on the wrong wall. I struggled to my feet and examined the picture closely, as an average gal it was an average picture. The chrome picture frame glowed brightly, it almost blinded me with its brilliance. As I stared, she morphed into the most pretty girl I'd ever seen like ms america. The she melted into a demon girl, with fangs and blood dripping from her mouth. In horror I stumbled away back to the couch.

The peak washed over me in waves, time had no meaning. The beautiful carpet patterns changed to a dark fearful pit. Paranoid I lost all sense of comfort. As the walls flashed thru colors at a maddening speed the room grew darker. My heart raced, my stomach tightened into a knot. I knew I was dying. The music faded away and seemed very distant. Visions of my life flashed thru my mind. The couch seemed hot and sticky, and I couldn't move. It seemed like hours and hours I was numb and confused. I stared at the wall unable to move, visuals of all shapes seemed to suffocate me.

Finely my mood lifted, the grip acid had on my mind began to ebb. Although I was still tripping, I could stand up. I was hungry, it took me 15 minutes to make a sandwich. When I bit into the sandwich it felt like mushy goo. I threw it into the sink and stumbled back to the couch.

As I lay there thinking 1000 thoughts per minute, I realized I will never trip again. I was too old, I felt ancient. The young party days of the past seemed like a distant memory.

The young party days of the past seemed like a distant memory.

 I wanted the trip to end, but it dragged on till I felt hollow inside. The dancing walls were fading fast, so I took a walk outside. The fresh air seemed to bring me back. My mood improved.

Although the trips ride up was exhilerating, I went thru 3 or 4 hours of hell. I have no regrets, I knew what I was in for. Over time we all tend to remember the good trips and forget the bad ones. I did them all in one day.

Exhausted I went to bed at 9pm and watched faint patterns on the ceiling until I fell asleep.

Prime effect from the acid or Lucy as I prefer it be called is the noticeable increase in time depth, but increased contentment with whatever the present mood is.  Some think acid is bad or can lead to a deterioration of your mental fortitude, personally I think it amplifies whatever I feel or experience.  If it's traumatic or slightly off putting, like bad news or a situation which brings a lot of anxiety, I usually try to understand the "anxiety monster" rather than fight or ignore it.  Looking at the monster that anxiety is and recognizing, but moving past it.

The best visual explanation I can give is to relate the tripping on Lucy to how the users pupils grow while under the influence of it.  Just like the blackness of one's pupils grow, the depth and emotional/spiritual, sometimes even psychic grasp of the situation grows.

When I'm flying in "Sid" even random holes, patterns, and debris on the road everyone drives, walks by, and takes for granted become a masterpiece created by the divine that exists throughout life whether seen, recognized, labeled, or none of the above.  Things people say around me are funnier, my focus is more thorough, and I become aware of things like parts of a machine or tools laying around that mostly go unnoticed because they're not commonly used or needed. Common, random things become more interesting basically.

Common, random things become more interesting basically.

First onset effects start after 10-30 minutes usually, at first peaking at about 60-90 minutes after ingestion, then dropping to mild "after trip" effects after about 7-10 hours depending on dosage on 1 paper or gel tab (approximately 9/32 thousandths of an inch).

I can be myself while making the ones I care most about happy, letting them know I care about them in my own way.  My system is not a system necessarily, but it works like a system does.  I've made similarities between my experience on acid and the seasons of the year, although it changes because my moods and circumstances do, it persistently creates a better environment for me to flourish in.

I on my own time can meditate and call to mind traumatic experiences from the past which still affect how I think, feel, and sometimes act to an extent, understand the experiences better and come away a better person. We think veterans are the only scarred hero's in our society, but we all have scars from the past that haunt us which need our attention in a healthy way from time to time.  Lucy helps us remember, deal with, and heal from these past experiences.

I've watched characters like "Roger Sterling" on Mad Men from AMC take it, have a crazy visual trip, and come away much more enlightened, happy, and "in love" with the world again attitudes.  For myself it's a lot like that.

Ok ill put out a little bit of backround on my drug use over the years just to start off. I have smoked weed everyday for the last few years done mushrooms twice before this done e once either a few times oxycontin a few times morphine and opium. Over all I considered my a somewhat experienced drug user.

At the time me and my friend had recently come across a reliable source for mushrooms and acid and very much wanted to drop for the first time. At around 12 pm we went and bought the tabs and went back to my friends house to trip. I forgot to mention the person who sold the acid to us came back to my friends house just to chill since he was cool to hang aorund with anyways. We dropped at 1 pm and soon after I did our dealer offered me some shrooms for an unbeatable price so I couldnt say no. This was around 2 and at first I was gonna save the shrooms for a later date but I said what the hell and munched em down. This was not very pleasant at first because I ended up getting pretty bad upset stomach which is weird because I usually never do, but that went away in a bit anyways.

Here is where things started to get interesting, I started to feel very relaxed and had this huge grin on my face...o yea this was at about 230. I also notice that things that I looked at for more than a few seconds would start to shift around move a little bit, not to dissimilar to a shroom trip. As the trip progressed I noticed that I was getting in a very good mood and how much I like this stuff but that I knew it was only just beginning. About 3 hours after dropping I was noticing that every thing around me was shifting and moving even when I wasnt thinking about it and I remember telling my friend who seemed to be in his own little world that this shit is great haha.

After about 4 hours of this shifting and swirling and great body high it seem to kick into hyper speed and I started thinking about so many things that were around me and what they used to be and how they got here. Basically I started dwelling on every little thought that came into my head. Not that this bother me but it did distract from the other parts of the experience that I liked. I also remember that the color during this period were very bright and vivid and that the music I was listening to was very enjoyable.

The 'hyper speed' part of the trip that I had enter lasted for a couple more hours and slowly calmed down and was a little less over whelming which was nice and actually kind of relieved me. Over the next few hours I slowly headed back towards the baseline and came down very smooth and gently wich was nice. Over all I would say that it was a very enjoyable experience. The only thing I can say that it entered me into a whole new world which I am definitely going back to some time in the future.

A few months before this experience I was placed on Lithium by my doctor for bi-polar disorder. I took 30mg (and still do) 3 times a day. The lithium really had a positive overall effect on my life, and presented no problem on other psychedelic drugs (shrooms and 2CI). It was my first time trying acid

It was my first time trying acid

 and I was completely unaware of the fact that mixing the two is a stupid decision.

30 min or so after taking the acid I was feeling amazing, and seemed to be tripping a little harder than the others I was with, although I had reacted to other psychs quite strongly when I did them for the first time so no one was alarmed. Within an hour though, I was in a totally different world, with colours and shapes that became so intense I could only see the faintest outline of the room I was in. Pretty soon I was not responding to the people I was with whatsoever.

The next part I don't remember, and have had to have it explained to me by my friends. I started acting strange to the point where the sober ones there were worried, and then started to convulse and stop breathing. My face turned bright blue before my friend got me to start breathing again (I'm not sure whether the breathing had to do with the seizure or just me being out of it). They called an ambulance, and I just kept tripping, totally unaware of the situation.

I just kept tripping, totally unaware of the situation.

 The paramedics came but couldn't keep me in one place so police cars showed up to help (must have been a slow night lol). They strapped me down and put me in the ambulance. Luckily I was so high that it not only didn't lead to a bad trip, I had an amazing time.

At the hospital I started coming down, and got more in touch with physical reality, although I couldn't stop yelling things that didn't make any sense. The doctors and nurses were all calling me 'the trip', which I didn't mind. I went home when I was finally sober and am pretty sure I want to try acid again..... once I'm off lithium. It was a good time for me, but seizures are no joke and I guess I was lucky it all turned out fine.

A good friend and I decided to take a trip, we started with 1 tab of acid each at around 8 o'clock. About 1 hour in while my buddy still didn't quite feel it, I could tell that it was going to come up strong. About 2 hours in and we are goofy, feeling it quite a bit for just 1 tab that we approximated to be about 150ug.

It's now just after 10 o'clock, and we decide that it's time to smoke a capsule of some fine white DMT. There is about 200mg in the capsule. I loaded some high quality purple indica in the bottom of my bowl, put the whole capsule on top of it, then put a little more shake from the herb on top to cover it from burning directly. We play a deep dubstep mix on my stereo that my friend had recorded a few days prior and put psychedelic visuals from YouTube up on the TV screen. Mind you it's 10 o'clock PM, so it's dark in the house and the visualizer is causing the lighting in the room to constantly change.

We begin smoking the bowl, passing back and forth to each other between hits, within 3 hits each we are sufficiently immersed in the presence of  a DMT trip. Then everything changes, keeping my eyes closed, I take a 4th hit without thinking about how I'm burning the substance, I puffed it like the iron lung hash smoker I am and instantly the level of complexity of the hallucinations multiplies by what seems like at least 100 times. I am immersed in a world that best matches up with the style of Chris Dyer's art, but on the level of his most complex works, then multiplied in complexity an exponential number of times and put into a video type format, constantly moving and creating all new visuals multiple times a second. I could see beings, entities, worlds, so much I could never understand it all in that short amount of time.

This is easily the most intense visual experience of my life at this point, many times that of my normal DMT trips, which I must say are pretty amazing to begin with. Then a song comes on in the mix with an extremely dark and sinister vibe, all of a sudden this world of hallucination transforms from being represented in many colors to a much more evil vision all in shades of red, orange and black.

this world of hallucination transforms from being represented in many colors to a much more evil vision all in shades of red, orange and black.

 I see fires roaring and the beings that seemed happy before now suffering in what I laughed aloud at and described as "the most fucked up shit I've ever seen". Only one other DMT trip had shown me such evils before but without the LSD, the visual stimulation from YouTube and the amazing deep mix that one was not nearly on this one's level. This evil, although terrifying didn't frighten me at all, and it was in fact a part of the most intense visual psychedelic experience of my life.

We continued to take hits until the bowl was finished and we stayed in our trips for over 20 minutes before the visuals started to go back to "normal acid visuals", although once I smoke DMT on an LSD trip, the rest of the LSD trip is altered and hallucinations often have much more complexity, so there is no real return to a "normal acid visual" state, I can tell when the DMT itself has worn off.

This experience changed my life and gave me so much hope for future DMT experiences. We decided to eat mushrooms right after that and well, let's just say it was a good night for learning.

I'd never had any experiences with psychedelics that widened my perception before the night in question. Unlike Huxley with mescaline, it took some doing before my doors of perception would be opened, and it wasn't cacti that did it for me, it was the synthesis of cereal grain mold we call d-Lysergic Acid Diethylmide, or LSD (an abbreviation of the german spelling). I'd been taking Acid awhile by then, and knew it was capable of weird stuff, but I was young then and had no real compass. It was just another drug, and it stayed that way until Christmas of 2014 when I took more than I ever had. I guess I was a bit down, with it being the holidays and there I was alone eating Acid with the phone off.

This night something altogether different would happen. I'd heard doses over 400 mics could cause some very otherworldly things to happen, I'd taken a pretty random sized square of high potency blotter

I'd taken a pretty random sized square of high potency blotter

 acid that was likely more like 600mcg, whatever happened when you overdose on Acid, I was going to find out. I was prepared with a benzo and some opiates should it just get out of control,  but again, I had never had it happen and might not recognize it if it began. Tonight, it would happen. I would see that other side... I listened to David Bowie's Diamond Dogs at some point during the trip (the record has become essential for tripping ever after, I find it very comforting for some reason) and at some point saw Bowie himself staring down at my supine body (he hadn't died yet)--I didn't remember laying down, but I must have just found my way there in my reverie. This was the last normal thought I remember having, the next got really weird, the kind of stuff that scared Dr. Rick Strassman away from his DMT experiments; a spiritual encounter.

There was a void of pure light with a very simple temple far in the distance, pyramidal but flat topped with no outer inscriptions beyond a rune above the door. I think this was the name of God. I can't remember what we said, but we spoke for a time, and when the time came to return to my body, it felt ravaged. Particularly by drink.

I should mention I'd been a pretty nasty alcoholic up until my night in God's court; 3-4 litres of whiskey a week, sometimes more. I was quite disoriented when I got back from the high dose Acid trip, but one thought was quite clear in my mind; the drinking was over.

I was quite disoriented when I got back from the high dose Acid trip, but one thought was quite clear in my mind; the drinking was over.

 Not 'The drinking will stop soon' or 'I need to moderate my drinking'...it wasn't like that, I had quit pretty vehemently during my concourse in the light. The smell of ethanol makes me gag, beer smells like farts, and wine like grape juice someone left in the sun. It was OVER, I tell you.

I've had social drinks since, because fucking-everybody-and-their-gottdamned-uncle drinks and it's hard to avoid, but it's 1 or 2 to be polite and that's all. What transpires next is dismaying and reinforcing at the same time, a room full of people get drunk and I don't, I won't, I can't betray what Thompson called "the Great Magnet", but those who imbibe become shameless. Animals looking to rut or throw up. Disgusting.

2 Pot Brownies and some Lucy

Acid…LSD is truly a complex substance to indulge. This entry is about the experiences I had when I did decided to “do” acid. I guess the only way to tell you about it is to start from the beginning.

I am 18 years old and I love to do psych drugs. They open my eyes up into a completely different world and lets you just release your inhibitions. The night I decided to drop acid was during Spring Break and I had nothing going on. My best friend and I (who have both experienced LSD before) decided to take only one hit each because we wanted to have a little fun.

I hate playing the waiting game. The time it took for that 1 hit to finally “do” anything was insane. It took me about an hour and a half before I started feeling it and it took my friend about 2 and a half hours. This made the trip not super enjoyable simply because, I was tripping and the other person with me wasn’t. As soon as I felt the trip beginning I hate 1 brownie with marijuana in it. I knew I had a while before that hit me so I just sat down and waited longer. I got the energy first. I wanted to just pace my living room back and forth but I knew my friend already thought I was wiggin’ so I confide myself to my chair in front of my computer. We spent about 2 hours just listening to music and watching funny videos on you tube. The energy soon ended but I knew it wasn’t over, finally, the visuals started to show up. Colors were looking gorgeous, carpet was growing, and shadows were moving. I was very excited that my trip had begun but I wished my friend’s had began as well.

About an hour after the LSD hit my friend I decided to eat another brownie and go have a cigarette. The smoke was awesome. I felt like the smoke was coursing through my body and it made me tingle. We took the acid around 9:50 pm so, by now it was dark and cold. The clouds looked exuberant and the stars looked like fireflies. After we went inside and started feeling the affects more the first brownie had hit me and it just intensified the experience. We went to my Xbox and decided to play Geometry Wars2 (FANTASTIC game to play if you ever roll or fry). This kept our attention for about 20 minutes although it felt like hours.

The time was now around 1:30 in the morning and I could feel my peak very strongly. My entire body felt warm and tingly while my eyes began to vibrate and distort shapes. We spent time on my couch talking and watching a movie. I lost interest in the movie from the get go. I started to feel tired and disappointed. Once I made up my mind about the movie I knew that if I stayed up I was going to go insane. Scenarios were racing through my head every second. It felt as if when the trip was over I would be considered crazy and put into a home or I was going to die. With this thought, I decided to sleep. In the middle of the night I woke up and realized my dog was sleeping on my legs. It wasn’t a big deal but when I looked back at her, I saw her skin ripping off and her hair falling out. I reached to wake up my friend because I was terrified and told myself, “It’s only a drug.“ and closed my eyes. I was expecting my trip to be better but, I should have figured that only doing 1 hit won’t fuck me up. Waking up the next morning I was extremely tired. I didn’t want to do anything but sleep.

The experience was fun don’t get me wrong, but some of the things that happened made my night not that enjoyable. The brownies were a good idea because it made me actually feel things more than just in my head. This was just one of those trips that could have been better but, oh well, I had fun.

One night I was with a couple of my friend my friend Rob, D, and Jamie. One night Rob hit me up and asked if I could get him some solid acid and being so fortunate to know a guy with some decent cid. I help him aquire enough for all of us but my friend Jamie wasn't taking any just trip watching us. This all happens around 10PM

We take the tabs in my friends jamies car and realized that we had no where to trip at and we didnt not have enough gas to be just driving around. We decided to go to some tunnels inside of a gulf course near D's house. Jamie parks the car and I see my friend Rob get out with a huge backpack. Not asking anything we proceeded into the small opening in the middle of the course.

45 We are in complete darkness. My friend Rob brings out LED flashlight from this huge bag and hands us all some glow sticks. We turn on the light and crack all the glow sticks. At this moment I knew that we were about to start tripping. I look down the tunnel and it started stretching and I kept moving farther and father away. I snap out of it and realize it was all in my head. We start walking down this dark tunnel by flashlight looking at all the graffiti bombings on the walls. Most of them were very well done and the colors of it all was very vivid the red looked red-er, black looked darker then normal if you know what I mean.

We finally get tired of walking around in the tunnel and sit down in a spot and just talk and smoke. My friends are just tripping I could tell. I look at my friend D's face and his eyes looked empty like a body with no soul. And Rob was chill he was enjoying himself laughing talking with the group. We get tired of the light and wanted to sit in pitch black for the hell of it so we turned the light off. The OEV were strong things felt like they were flying past me in weird shapes.  Out the corner of my eye I saw a light coming from the glowstick but ignored it and that made my visuals spin start moving in all directions.

D had gotten the idea of cutting the glowsticks and throwing the liquid all on the sides of the pitch black tunnel. After he had opened about 4 of them and covering the walls with the liquid we turned off the light again. Stars... All I could think of is stars. I stared strait at 1 in particular start and it didnt move but everything around it was morphing trying to take the star I was looking at but concentrating on it was the only thing keeping it still. I close my eyes and the only thing that changed was the stars were gone.

We all start to want to move to a new spot out side of the tunnels. So we get out of the tunnel and onto the gulf course at about 2 in the morning and walk to my friend D's house to kick it on his porch. On the way out of the tunnel I felt like I was sewer people or something the world outside just looked new and glorious. We walk off and I notice the ground that I was walking on was like cement on a gulf course not so much as hard but as sturdy. We got to his house and sit at the table he had set up in the front.

After about 2 more hours we were just talking and out of the blue a pair of red small lights look at me. I looked back... All I could see was a shadow behind Rob's shoulder with red piercing eyes. I was dumbfounded I couldnt move talk or blink I could only stare. It moved side to side as if it was going to take Rob alive. As soon as he got close to Rob I guess Rob went to reach for something on the table and the shadow collapsed right before my eyes. If you have seen paranormal activity 3 then its the part were the ghost uses the bed sheets and it looks like a person but then the sheet collapses on its own into nothing... Same thing happened. I was in complete shock and my eyes were tearing. I didnt tell my friends about it for some reason. I was compelled not to like if I told them what I had saw I would be releasing a bigger burden onto them so I kept it to my self. After our peek went down enough to look publicly non-intoxicated we went to Jack  in the box and talked.

The last time I was fortunate enough to take LSD, I was at home with two of my friends and my folks out of town.  I had to work earlier that day, and I spent the entire day on the phone with my friend Justin trying to close a deal on some acid.  We were finally able to obtain 10 drops of some liquid on two sugar cubes, five generous drops on each.  When I finally got off my shift at work, it was arranged for me to meet Justin's friend to pick up and pay for the acid, which I did.  I went home and immediately put the sugar cubes in the fridge to keep the acid 'fresher' for the night's activities.  My friend Justin showed up and we went out and got some Chinese take-out to wait for Kyle.

When we got back to my house we decided to make my traditional 'house drink' for Kyle since he wasn't going to be dropping any acid.  Basically, my drink consists of a little bit of everything we have in the liquor cabinet, a pitcher of OJ, and a lot of Peach Schnapps and some pure grain alcohol (195 proof!) that my dad had in the back of the liquor cabinet.  We pour all the alcohol into a pitcher full of OJ and shake really well.  It's surprisingly good, too.  Since my parents were out of town for the weekend, Justin and I were both very relaxed and basically stress-free for the weekend, so we both went into the trip with a positive mind-set.

[Erowid Note:
Driving while intoxicated, tripping, or extremely sleep deprived is dangerous and irresponsible because it endangers other people. Don't do it!]

Kyle showed up around 9 p.m., we all had a few of my house drink, and Justin and I dissolved our sugar cubes in our mouths (T +0:00).  We all piled into Kyle's car and drove down to the waterfront and the beach to await the coming trip.  We sat on the dock for a while and talked, and after about 40 minutes I began to feel tingling in my extremities and in my chest.  I glanced over to Justin, who had a big smile on his face, and I knew he was beginning to feel it, too.  I looked down and noticed that the grain in the wood of the dock had re-arranged itself into some sort of tribal-looking patterns (T +0:45).  We decided to drive back to my place so we could enjoy the trip more (our laughter and comments were beginning to draw some looks), so we got back into Kyle's car and drove back.  When we got back, we decided to bring the pitcher of OJ/hard alcohol upstairs and watch a movie on the entertainment system.  I popped in Beavis and Butthead Do America and we all sat back to enjoy.

By this time (T +1:15) my trip was really getting going, and I began hearing strange, wondrous sounds in the background of the movie, and all the characters had a different look to them that was hard to describe.  I was getting lost in the world of sounds and colors of the movie, and my mind was beginning to wander into an altered state.  Then the scene when Beavis eats the peyote in the desert came on.  Beavis's trip began, and mine was climbing to a peak.  Beavis's trip is pretty strange, especially when I'm tripping as well, and I was getting weirded out by all the sounds and creatures and colors, so I turned the movie off.  When I did, my entire TV screen turned blue (as it usually does when you hit stop on the VCR), but I was mesmerized by the 52” of high definition bright blue in front of me.  It seemed to envelope my entire being, and the whole universe became nothing but a serene, bright blue.  Nothing existed but myself and the blue, and it began to present ideas to me about my life and how I live, and I was able to look at my life more objectively and realize things I had never known about myself and why I do the things that I do.  I began to realize that everything and everyone is connected in some inexplicable way, and that the things we do to each other reflect back on ourselves and on the universe as a whole.  I realized that many people don’t know this or don’t seem to care, and that this is a shame, but at the same time I realized that I must accept this fact, and that everything, good or bad, is part of a bigger picture and plan and must be accepted.  The blue was pulsating with serene light and there were strange, indescribable sounds all around me, and they were a part of the blue, too.  The blue seemed to want to envelope me, and I welcomed it, but I was at the same time apprehensive about letting myself go into it completely.  I believe now that if I had let this happen, there would have been complete dissolution of the ego and I would have become a part of one huge blue sea of being and one with the universe.  I hesitated for some reason I still can’t understand (perhaps just fear of the unknown), and Kyle, who had gotten himself into an alcohol-induced slumber, woke up and turned on Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

I snapped from my trance once the blue disappeared from the screen and decided to go downstairs and put on some music and wash the dishes.  I went downstairs, where I found Justin on the back porch in the light rain staring up at the stars.  At this point (T +2:45) I was starting to peak, and the outside wasn’t the place to be for me – mainly because the raindrops landing on the hood of the gas grill turned into serpent-like eyes, and then they looked like serpent scales and the grill turned into a huge dragon.  I went inside and put some Phish and Grateful Dead in the CD player on random and began the dishes.  When the dishes were over, I had just reached my plateau for the night (T + 3:15), and Justin and I went back upstairs to sit in the bonus room (big living room area over the garage with the computer and entertainment system, etc.) and burn some incense and listen to some music and trip our minds off.

Kyle started messing around with the special features on the Monty Python DVD and found some trailers for some really tripped-out movies: Stanley Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, some fucked-up movie called The City of Lost Children (“The best visual effects of 1995, 1996, and possibly 1982…”) and another one called Baron Munchausen.  This last one was for some reason incredibly hilarious to all three of us, and we laughed our asses off for a good 40 minutes straight.  Later, Justin went into my room to listen to music and try to enjoy the remainder of his trip and get some sleep, Kyle had passed out again, and I put on some music and tried to get some sleep.  In the total darkness, it was easy for my eyes to convert the blackness to blueness, and I spent the rest of the night (T +4:30 – T +8:00) in a sort of trance, wandering into far-off corners of my mind, all the while being embraced and enfolded by the blue.  I guess I nodded off to sleep at some point, because the next thing I knew, it was morning and I had to get up and get ready for another day of work.  We all sat around on the floor of the bonus room and ate Cocoa Krispies, shared stories about the night, and had a good laugh over Baron Munchausen.  All in all, it was a wonderful night full of new discoveries, and I’ve been looking forward to my next trip into the blue.

I was in a valley town of West Virginia for a small scale psytrance/glitch-hop/chillum-smoking-barefoot-hippie-junglist type festival. I had an awesome group of friends with me and a colossal bag of kitties. It was the second morning and I was sitting in a circle of people at our campsite, dazed by K and the night before when my friend, let’s call him A, inquires we all eat some LSD and is met with a unanimous “yeah sure why not whatever”. Pieces of paper are then handed around the circle, each one a big generous strip. I get one that looks like a good 4 or 5 hits and I mean this shit is good. Newbies could split these buggers in half and experience a solid first acid trip.

There were the typical post consumption giggles going around, and that slightly awkward undertone of a collective psychedelic come up. Eventually everything starts to look greener, I see small kaleidoscopes bursting in the overcast sky and my mind starts to bend. It was wet, cold and raining in the Appalachians. I took a bump of ketamine and felt warmer. One of my friends starts to blow up one of these weird alien glow balloon things that he got from a vendor, and as it inflated he would pull it away from his face and look at his progress every so often, and then giggle at the half deflated alien in a state of balls-tripping. This went on for 30 some minutes until there were several glowing aliens hung up around ours and our neighbors campsite. It was hilarious, but my own trip had kind of a weird undertone to it that I can’t exactly explain. I felt detached, but not just from the K. Like I was separated from my peers on a different level than everyone else. After an hour it became more difficult to speak, I could only belly laugh and smile, or answer yes or no questions. I took a bump of K and we went to the first show of the day.

I was watching this chick hula hoop, and she was honestly one of the best hoopers I’ve ever seen. Doing some crazy fucking shit with her body that was really impressive. She just flowed together so well I couldn’t take my eyes off her. I was getting these streamers of light where her hoop had been and they formed geometries making me visualize how well a perfect geometrical shape such as a circle can wrap around the human form. Kind of like how poi forms triquetras and what not. I went under a blanket and did another bump of K, then I lied down. My body melted into the earth and the sky was so many colors, while in actuality it was just gray. After several minutes of the laying in the grass, staring at the sky with the bass hitting my eardrums, I saw the sky start to “tear” with white light. Eventually it opened and I saw something like pic related. The light around it was too bright to see clearly, but it was incredibly vibrant and colorized. What was strange was that it just sat there, it was not like an entity it didn’t try to contact me. It just was. I wasn’t catatonic. I could still walk, and talk if I needed. But there was this great big Mayan sun just accompanying me. If I was slightly crazier I’d have thunk “ALIENS!”

Eventually I said “FUCK IT, I’M WET” and hobbled back to the campsite with two or three others. We sat there in mostly silence, too in awe with the visuals to speak more than a sentence or two at once. My mind started to wander and I began to get anxious. I had to pee but couldn’t fathom how I could get up and actually DO it, you know? So I just sat there. This continues for an hour before we went to the next show, which was Thriftworks. He makes weird glitch-hop. We get to the tent and we all sit in front of the stage, and then my mood goes from “meh” to overwhelmingly negative. Every time someone laughed, it was at me. Every time someone spoke quietly, it was about me. I felt naked in a crowd of people. I didn’t know what to do.

Every time someone laughed, it was at me. Every time someone spoke quietly, it was about me. I felt naked in a crowd of people. I didn’t know what to do.

 Eventually I realized that I was crying. I go up to friend A, who gave me the acid, and I say to him “dude, this L is WEIRD man.”

He sees something’s up and tells me “no it isn’t man let’s go for a walk” and immediately stands up and motions for me to follow him. Everyone else stayed behind.

As we’re walking I pour my heart and soul into this kid. I tell him that I’m kinda depressed and yadda yadda personal shit, my brain’s fucked up and psychedelics have been amplifying that lately. Giving me social anxiety and extreme paranoia. Borderline schizo. I’m losing it. Eventually I feel a lot better and we go back to the show. Everyone acts super happy to see me and asks how I’m doing, it felt really good. I couldn’t have asked for better company in that state of mind.

After Thriftworks we went straight to Shpongle. I bumped more K and grabbed my DMT from the campsite, and then we waited in the crowd for Simon to come on stage. Shpongle has this amazing ability to start his set without a word of welcome, push some buttons that make the speakers go “DONNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG” and then 60% of the crowd lies down and I’m just standing there like “what the fuck is going on and what is that smell?”

It was around the 6 hour mark of the acid trip, and I had been in a K-hole for two straight days. So I figured as Divine Moments played it was as good a time as any to blast the fuck off. I loaded up my little deem pipe and took three tokes, my vision went somewhere else and all I could see were patterns. The randomness of the visuals seemed oddly allegorical, like a reincarnation pattern or less specifically just a broad representation of chaos. Such is life. I came down like a feather through the air, and found myself grinning with the fruit of psychedelic reassurance. DMT always makes me realize that everything is okay and I worry too damn much. I owe who I am to that compound.

After that it was kind of just a blur of Ketamine and nitrous until I passed out in my tent. Thanks for reading! I doubt that I was able to do this experience justice!

So, to preface this trip report I want to share my drug experience before the one at hand. I had been smoking weed daily for about a year and a half and been dabbling in weed for nearly three. My acid experience only went as far as two prior trips. My first experience with LSD was very intense and eye opening, I enjoyed it so much because of all the new thoughts it brought into my mind after and during the trip (the visuals were pretty cool too :p). However, my second experience with LSD, about three weeks later was... less than impressive to say the least, it was not intense, whether that was due to the strength of the tab or a slight tolerance and familiarity, I'm not sure. And, naturally as an over zealous teen I was really searching for an intense experience

as an over zealous teen I was really searching for an intense experience

.

So, when it came time, about a month later, for me to go into to the psychedelic world for the third time, I decided to spice it up a little. I decided, with caution, depending on my headspace during the come up, that this time I would smoke weed while tripping. I popped the tab while sitting alone in my apartment and got ready for the ride with my trusty glass of water and my speaker. I have found that listening to music while tripping really helps my headspace stay positive especially since every song feels like a new little life during the trip and really helps to set the tone overall.

About 40 minutes after taking the tab my vision became wavy and sort of flowing like water, as I’ve typically experienced, I felt really positive and excited so I decided to smoke. I got my dab pen and took, maybe, 10-15 rips from it, until I was sufficiently stoned. LSD, always gives me a sort of queasiness and overall a slightly uncomfortable body feel, but after smoking, all nausea was gone and my body felt extremely relaxed.

About 20 minutes later ~1hr into the trip, the visuals kicked in, stronger than ever before. From the point of smoking my memory is hazy, no surprise lol, but my visual experience every time prior was more distortion than true hallucination, but this time, large and centered in my vision, a giant Luigi face appeared. Well, Luigi-like. It went from a pleasant face, to a menacing face, to a confused face and all back through over and over. The whole trip was insane, it was incredibly intense and could’ve easily went south to a very bad trip very quickly, but I embraced the intensity, after all, this is what I was after.

It went on with mildly intense visuals for another hour or two and then the come down began. My headspace throughout was like the typical psych headspace, except I couldn’t remember my past thoughts at all, within seconds of having them. I had to handle having no idea what was going on.

LSD Ego Dissolution

About two weeks ago I used LSD for my sixth trip.  I was at my home tripping for the first time besides a smaller  microdose. I was tripping with a good friend of mine who I had used LSD with on three other occasions. Him and I are quite comfortable tripping at this point and are anxious for what this night will bring.

Upon tripping I began to feel euphoria within 40 minutes.

I began to feel euphoria within 40 minutes.

 Unlike any other prior trip however, I began to feel a greater level of anxiety than ever before. My stomach ached per usual, but I still felt something was just kind of off. My friend and I played some video games for another hour on the come up but once visuals began to hit hard we decided to just watch a show or do something else.

 After consuming some THC through dabs as well as blunt, we headed back to the computer to continue our diverging search. This is when things began to feel just weird. I was seeing visuals only when I could overcome the strange anxiety that seemed to plague my trip. While suggesting shows my friend just seemed weird to me. An overcoming awkwardness, very unfamiliar to me and my close friend, just made the trip not seem to go to plan. Less to say I had weird thoughts of if he was gay, as weird as that is to say.

Everything he said just felt weird and an unopened question. Then while tripping I found myself saying the same weirdly interpret-able as coming out of the closet statements. I then realized how weird this was so I decided to overcome the now two-hour long awkwardness and get it off my chest

I decided to overcome the now two-hour long awkwardness and get it off my chest

 to my friend what I felt like right then. Words fail to describe the over arching anxiety I faced for over two hours whilst internally battling the weirdness that was occurring.

As soon as I did he said he was literally thinking the exact same thing. It was an unspoken conversation that we had, we had both recognized a strange connection/bond that we were sharing and decided to look into it. I stumbled upon the idea of ego-dissolution and was set on the idea. I feel that through the trip me and my friend shared a sort of connection mentally, as crazy as that sounds, and I felt it was my mission to break the awkwardness and strengthen that.

For the continuation of the trip me and my friend sat for the next 5 hours and talked about life and the stress and anxiety we felt. Throughout my 8 years of knowing him, I had never once truly opened up upon so much of my life. We are both extremely similar, high achieving students faced with such similar problems and fears in the world.

I feel as though that LSD truly brought us together as friends more than any other experience as scary, awkward, and just mind-blowing as it may be.

Beautiful days come and go, but this day was different. It was the second day at a music festival with some friends, at an amazing location in the middle of a forest by a quarry. We had all been recovering from a pleasant LSD trip from the night before, and took the afternoon to relax and get ready for the night ahead.

It was about 2 p.m. and we had stumbled upon some hash food, which we were more than happy to purchase. So we ate our mysterious cookies and brownies and headed out to the lake to swim for awhile. Everything about this day had been perfect, and we finally headed back to the camp site well before sundown to savor four hits of very powerful LSD followed by a bottle of Jameson. We had met some very interesting characters around our camp, and welcomed them to sit around a modest fire. One of the guests had offered us a few hits of Jerry Garcia blotter acid, which we of course couldn’t refuse.

After about an hour I had started to feel incredibly high. I had already begun to feel the energy of the trees mending myself, the wind was gentle and passed through me as I could see all these colors mashing against people that I have only just met, some were neutral, some were terrifying, some just perfect.

As dusk had been approaching, a man came to our site, and it was only me and another friend at this point. He pulled out a small pouch. Opened it and had told us that if we want to see the truth, that we should smoke this. I looked at him and I saw in his huge black holes that he really wanted us to experience this. So free of charge he prepared it for us, my friend was first, and he had taken a very large hit, held it in and lay back in his chair. I watched as this guy had prepared it for me. I looked at him and could tell he was barely conscious. So then the guy lit it up for me and I inhaled the smoke. I held it for a very long time and it was extremely uncomfortable for about 30 seconds. I slowly let the smoke out and I felt every molecule in my body contract.

The sun was halfway over the horizon and I started to lose all connections of the real world. I lost all emotions. It started with a subtle buzzing sound in my left ear. I was focused on this space in between this tree and the sun. Suddenly the tree started to fade away, and I saw what I would compare to stained glass, mostly warm colors like reds, oranges, and yellows. I then felt as if I had risen out of my body and flowing toward this dark space, a crack between the glass. I moved faster toward it, and the darkness began to fill the sky. Then I remember spinning toward it, as if it was a black hole, and soon I saw what I could only imagine as nothing. And then two figures came out of the dark hallway of nothing, specs of light at first. They approached me very calmly. I could only describe them as male and female figures. The male figure, which looked like an oval, spoke, and said in a sort of digital voice, “do you see it yet?” The female figure, which was more circular, repeated more naturally, “can you see it now?”

I was not myself at this moment. I was what I could only describe as nothing, or energy in its purest form. I could not speak, nor was I aware of anything else in existence. I felt alone. I’m not sure if it was death or birth or just a collapse of self awareness, but for that brief moment after they spoke, was the most beautiful moment of my life, there was nothing. I quickly started to come back to reality. The oval figure broke its shape and formed into voices next to me, and the wind, and the trees brushing against each other, and the circle had broke into the sun, and from there I could see everything like it was brand new, like I opened my eyes for the first time. After that sat in the chair for about ten more minutes, and was just okay with everything. The rest of the night was sort of a blur. From then on I have yet to touch psychedelics.

This experience made me so much more appreciative toward everything. And almost every time I fall asleep at night, for what is less than a brief moment, I can see that same nothing, and I can’t help but smile.

Before I describe what happened here let me explain my background.  I am a 26 year old guy who after having moved to California for 3 years to get sober, currently lives at his parents house attending school at an Oregon University for medical imaging.  I also make electronic chill/hop style beats and really lose myself in it. I have a life history of drug abuse (mostly meth), however after a spiritual experience on LSD with some guys I met down in socal (obviously staying clean didn't work so well at first lol) I unexplainably lost the mental obsession to use.  This isnt to say that it was immediate but if I were to graph my use you would see that there was a sudden and exponential decrease in use there after that trip, needless to say I credit that experience.  That was my 4th time using LSD and the dose was 250 mcg.

At the point of taking this dose I was already very personally intrigued by the drug.  This was because I had noticed on each trip that I began to see the same fractal like pattern which seemed to somehow reflect my personality in the pattern.  I had asked my friends if they saw it but it didn't seem that they could relate and this very much frustrated me because it seemed to be that EVERY TRIP consisted of the SAME PATTERN

it seemed to be that EVERY TRIP consisted of the SAME PATTERN

.  Well when I moved back up to Oregon a good buddy had some remaining DMT and since it was only a ten minute trip I chose to take part.  I can talk about this experience later but the main point here is that after one hit smoking the DMT on a bowl of weed I saw the SAME PATTERN, and upon taking my second hit was blasted THROUGH the pattern and into the ego-death absolute mind fuck that is dimethyltryptamine.

A couple months pass and I go back to my buddy explaining how badly I want to research this next realm again.  He tells me we can do a DMT extraction to get some more but in the meantime he gifted me a little gel tab (100mcg) of LSD.  Obviously I was happy but didn't ever think that I would possibly have the profound experience to come, thus was a little pessimistic......

Fast forward to this morning, I knew I would have the whole day at the house to myself so I prepared a small breakfast, took a magnesium supplement and popped the tab at 10am.  For the first two hours I was very disappointed because I was not getting any real trippy visuals. I went on a bike ride to a local park and could start to tell that my senses were being heightened but even then was still pretty meh about it.  When I got home from the bike ride things would change for the better.

I decided that the little activities I had set up (coloring book, making music, blacklight in the closet to induce a night trip vibe) were most likely not going to be enjoyed so instead to relieve my anxiety something told me to go to the living room and try to meditate.... best decision ever

to relieve my anxiety something told me to go to the living room and try to meditate.... best decision ever

.

I noticed immediately that when I sat in the criss crossed applesauce thumbs touching middle finger and rocking back to forth that the visuals began to get more intense.  I just barely saw that good ol pattern I was all talk about and  I was excited but not convinced that this was anything but the progress of the drug finally setting in.  When i stopped however the visuals went away and what I was seeing was just the same room I always see with the expected small ambiguity that LSD is of course going to cause in vision. but no pattern UNTIL I began meditating and breathing deeply holding the breath and exhaling.  At this point I was catching on and I continued until the pattern exposed the face of my diseased grandfather... I nearly cried.

Bear with me hear it gets more interesting.  I remembered someone I met telling me about krishna conciousness which I hardly understood other than the fact that there is a all loving god krishna and that it shares some eastern religion concepts like karma and reincarnation etc.  I decided I would try the chant he taught me at this point.

So i started, "Hare Krishna!"  I could immediately tell that something changed.  The pattern began to get more intense and I felt like my meditation was ascending me vertically like an elevator vertigo type feeling.  In absolute awe and now seeing my dog who was sadly put down years previously in the same room I was tripping, I continued.  "hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna!"  with each chant the rooms colors became more and more vibrant and the faces in the personality pattern I describe were nodding and smiling at me as if to say " those words right there my dear friend, are in fact THE MAGIC MOTHERFUCKING WORDS!"

I am still in absolute awe and feel that I have began the crusade to eternal peace with my loving god, who I'm pretty damn sure is named krishna now. Whewww. My take aways here is that all psychadelics are designed to get people to the same place, an understanding that god is there with you all the time along with the presence of all of your ancestors or something idk its nuts. lol

I had been trying to get acid for several weeks before, I had finally gotten some real tabs....good tabs supposedly...from a trusted source. I thought I could handle anything...invincible. He claimed that these tabs were pretty potent. I decided to take 4...when I told my friend that he wouldn't let me and I had to convince him I was getting some for a friend. Obviously he knew I wouldn't be able to handle it.

Last year... A saturday it was, I took them. I took all four at about around 6-8pm. I decided the best idea was to just do it by myself, in a familiar area...my bedroom. My parents weren't back til sunday night...so the stage was all set. Within 20 mins I started feeling funny, almost like I was pretty ripped off bong hits or something...then about 10 mins later, I think, I started to trip pretty hard...got the usual color changes and brightnesses and everything was moving...I had on Pink Floyd of course which was nuts...but it sounded totally different, yea all the while exactly the same. That was about the end of the fun. I can't say exactly how long that lasted, probably about 20-30 mins.

I then slipped into something I will never forget. Everything became unclear ... So much seemed to be going on all at once...then out of nowhere it all stopped. I was no longer lying in bed...no longer in any familiar place. At first I had no idea what was going on....but I eventually figured out that I was standing on Earth. But it was different. There was nothing except for forming lands...as if I had been sent back to the beginning of time. I then seemed to watch....and watch....and watch...and watch. I didn't do anything but watch. For what seemed like years upon years I watched Earth develope through the stages of its begginning's. Just like they tell you in science class. I began to realize what was happening...I was living history. But living it day by day......neverending.

What seemed like thousands of years later life began to evolve. I watched this stage ..... Which lasted thousands of years also....It was never ending....I totally forgot that I had even taken acid....I was just watching the Earth develope....nothing seemed odd about it. Humans began to form and civilization began to take over after years and years of nothingness. I experienced many significant events in history....the big bang, jesus christ, pangea forming...and deforming, wars such as ww1. This trip was literally lasting millions of years in my mind. I experienced many other events but it began to get foggy once I had finally reached the end. I began to realize I was tripping and remembered who I was and where I was.

For what seemed about 2 hours I could barely see much or make much out but I could at least tell that I was in my room. I looked at the clock after I began to see 'straight' and it read one thirty something....in the morning. Although I lived history it was really only 4 hours. I couldn't even comprehend what had happened. It still felt like I was stuck in history for thousands if not millions of years....an amount of time which I cannot even think of....and though when I took the tabs still seemed not too distant.....the time in between was an eternity. I don't know whether this would be considered a bad trip or not......but I would never want to experience something like that ever again.....

Since then I had taken tabs numerous times but in much lower doses....and I do enjoy them. However, nothing compares to that first trip. I remembered reading that time can either seem like minutes or hours, even days.....but I had no idea I could go into a trip where I was 'watching' things happen for what seemed like that many years. Even thought I realize it was only a couple of hours...I feel that I have lived for a very long time. Those tabs changed me....for better or for worse. I matured. Matured through the years of the trip. Though I am only 21 I feel I have the knowledge, or more 'experince' of a man a thousand years old. It is hard to cope with the feeling...not that its bad....its hard to explain and I dont think I can. I was never in fear or horror, I wouldnt consider a bad trip even, the more and more I think about it. However, the time lapse seems all too real.

Bipolar and the Effects of LSD

I have bipolar disorder which has gone untreated for about 6 months. I was going into a depressive cycle when I dosed. The LSD I took was called Alice in Wonderland and was extremely strong, in fact the trip lasted about 14 hours. I took it at about 7:00 pm and probably had the best trip of my life.

Later that night, looking at the stars was like looking through a kaleidoscope; they were spinning and rotating, and I could see an entire spectrum of color surrounding each of those little white lights in the sky. The trees that surrounded me were these live sentient beings dancing in the night.

The trees that surrounded me were these live sentient beings dancing in the night.

 The world seemed drawn-- animated-- to me, like a cartoon. I was talking with my boyfriend late into the night on various subjects: the effects of hallucinogens, creation, the existence of a fourth dimension, the existence of God. During this conversation I met the woman that I want to be. She was confident, self-sure, intelligent; she could express herself articulately, and she was happy.

The trip lasted well through the night and into the next morning, which got me worrying-- had I gone crazy? But after a full nights rest I realized it was just lack of sleep and a surprisingly long trip that was dragging me down.  The most surprising thing was the depressive cycle that had taken effect well before I dosed up seemed to dissipate, and I was back to my normal mood; neither manic nor depressed. I wouldn't suggest LSD as a mood stabilizer or a medication for Bipolar disorder of any sort. I've taken prescription mood stabilizers, anti depressants and anti-psychotic drugs, and truthfully for me LSD gave me a renewed state of mind and made me feel better equipped to handle a condition that has been without a sufficient solution for years now.

LSD Needlepoint Blotter

THC Oil Potent Shatter Cannabis Flowers

I had a very challenging trip about 6 months ago. It was probably my 100th time taking LSD, and with long-time friends/trippers. The acid came on very strongly, it was a new batch we had not tried yet, and I had foolishly taken 2.5 blotters expecting them to be medium strength. Once the acid set in I began to experience increasingly confusing perceptions of the current situation.

Within about an hour of the effects starting I had completely lost it. I can briefly remember rambling on about following your feelings and doing what makes you happy. Then I had the sensation that some cosmic force was speaking to me directly. My friends were on the same dose but it didn't seem to be completely mindfucking them like myself. They were becoming more and more concerned for me and this was confusing to me, because in my state I believed I was making perfect sense.

I believed I was making perfect sense.

At some point, an inner dialogue began between myself and a cosmic force. I visualized the universe reaching a turning point, where all beings would have instilled in them the seed of compassion and unity, and the mental imagery of this dialogue involved a dragon coiled around a shiny white egg, and the dragon uncoiled, and the egg hatched.

After witnessing the egg hatch in my mind's eye, I flipped a switch. I leaped up from the floor and looked around at everyone, laughing/crying. I pointed and told them 'We're getting out of this mother fucker!!!' Then I ran around the room, having the sensation that I was just a spirit, and could pass through objects. I was walking through the wall and in to the bathroom. At one point I floated downstairs without using the steps at all. Later my friends told me I had ran into the wall, then ran down the stairs, jumping down 16 stairs in 4 big steps.

Downstairs is where my memory blacks out. Apparently I ran straight out of the house. I came to in an unfamiliar neighborhood, I was on someone's porch sitting on their steps, bleeding from my foot. It was here that I somewhat realized that I was completely lost. Very shortly after (in the same couple minutes) I began another inner dialogue with that same cosmic force that basically said, 'God is you, you are god. You're the only being in the entire cosmos. The job of God is so lonely. God stretches into infinitudes of form, seemingly becoming multiple entities, but in truth, there is only One.'

Then my memory was gone again, only to return a few moments later as I knocked on the stranger's door. He came to the door, very late at night, and immediately noticed my bleeding foot. He asked if I was okay and this jarred me back to reality just enough and I said that I had just had a terrible dream. Then he realized I was on drugs. He became angry and said 'Who's gonna clean up all this blood off my porch'. I somehow managed to apologize and walk away, although I quickly forgot the situation and sat back down on his porch.

To make a longer story short, I wandered this neighborhood for 3 hours completely lost until the sun came up and even then I couldn't recognize anything familiar. A cop had to take me home after one of the residents called to report a suspicious man walking around. I told him I had gotten really drunk and wandered off.

I ended up with frostbite on both feet and really damaged my personal relationships with my friends. Psychedelics are powerful. Please don't mess around folks. There are so many exciting ways to expand your mind sober. Tibetan singing bowls are a favorite of mine. That space of complete emptiness and bliss that came to define the psychedelic experience for me can be found through entrancement via sound waves. Be kind, be  smart, take your time in getting wise. It seems there are few shortcuts.

LSD for Treatment of Migraines

I have had migraines all my life; since I was a baby. They have been extremely disabling, causing trips to the hospital, and missed days of school. I had been to migraine specialists, been prescribed various medications, and even tried bio-feedback. None of that worked.

Of all of the over the counter medications, ibruprofen seemed to be the only thing that would make the slightest difference... At first anyway. When I was in middle school I was taking that every single day, as I would get a headache every single day to some degree. Of course by that point, what I was experiencing were rebound headaches. By the end of middle school I was less 'addicted' to ibuprofen, but was still getting headaches daily (not as severe as before). In high school I was experiencing the same frequency of headaches.

In the 10th grade I started to become more interested in drugs, and eventually tried LSD. I had an amazing experience, and several days after the trip I realised I hadn't gotten a headache or migraine at all in that time. I didn't know at the time LSD had any effect on that, so I did some research and found that it can indeed 'cure' migraines for up to several months at a time. That's exactly what it did! 6 months went by and I had not ONE migraine.

6 months went by and I had not ONE migraine.

 It was spectacular! In all my 17 years of having migraines, trying all sorts of things, this one, unfortunately illegal, drug was the answer to all my problems.

However, my family has a history of schizophrenia and mental illness, and the particular aunt that has it did a lot of LSD when she was younger, which actually brought out the schizophrenia in her. So naturally I did not want to be doing this drug too much, especially considering I'm already bipolar. But after my migraines started coming back 6 months after the first trip, I decided it was time for another dose. This dose felt significantly weaker than the first one I ever took, but still provided migraine relief, just for not as long.

2 months later I had to dose again, and I am currently for the most part relieved of major migraines. LSD changed my life.

It was the 2nd night of a music festival, in the back of the vendor space my friend had set up. It was him (Will), another friend (Jessica), and her friend (Kaitlyn). They all took their tabs, but I was hesitant to take mine, not trusting my subconscious self.

They wanted us all to be on the same level, and I agreed, so I stuck however many tabs it was in my mouth.

There was a body high; a melting feeling. We girls soon went for a walk around the campgrounds. There, I noticed all the artificial lights had rainbow orbs around them. The moon was full and I saw it bounce further and closer.

There were 3 ping pong balls on the ground that I questioned were real or not. I stepped on one and thought it disappeared completely. I enjoyed playing with them in my hands for a bit.

We kept walking, and I did naturally feel somewhat anxious/ insecure. When I closed my eyes, I saw tunnels of patterns and colors. We stumbled upon these 2 other trippers at their tent, building a meshy glowstick wall. We stood there a while staring, talking. And then we made our way back to home base/ the vendor's tent, where we left our water. There, we basically all collapsed wherever we could find to lay down. Jessica fell asleep instantly.

I was laying, facing Kaitlyn for a while. When I'd close my eyes, I'd explore worlds inside myself. I was trying to find my way through the tunnel of anxiety, I think.

I was trying to find my way through the tunnel of anxiety, I think.

 Also, feeling short of breath, I was trying to find my lungs but could barely find my body. I was all in my head experiencing rooms &amp; worlds.

When I'd open my eyes, I'd see Kaitlyn's face right there. Sober or not, this makes me uncomfortable, as I'm scared people will see inside my soul. Her gentle smile morphed into an ugly evil frown, so I closed my eyes again.

The tie dye tapestry in front of us revealed many pictures of many animals. We experienced this together for a while.

After moving from the pile of clothes to the cushion bed sprawled out (w/ Will), I remained deeply anxious, trying to not lose myself, to observe myself. I went to pee a bit later after falling asleep, and instantly was drawn towards music. I walked over to the big tent with an incredible light show, not feeling like dancing. Just standing in the background feeling self-conscious. I came to the conclusion that I can't fake happiness anymore. “Nothing that you don't feel, is real.”

Though my trip was somewhat enjoyable, I wish I could have been able to let go. I was still anxious/ self-conscious into the next day.

Recently, my boyfriend and I have been experimenting with different types of drugs, and due to a large curiousity, we found ourselves with four tabs of LSD. My boyfriend took his a week before I did, but something in the way that he took them was off and they didn't work. So, naturally, when taking my blotters, I didn't really expect anything to happen

when taking my blotters, I didn't really expect anything to happen

 either.

I was wrong.

I held the blotters under my tongue for about thirty minutes, swishing them around my mouth every one and a while, before I eventually swallowed the tabs. I started to get a slight body high around about an hour and a half in, and it reminded me of the way I had felt while taking Methylone a few weeks prior. I also felt incredibly sexual for a while, but it slowly died down as the high overtook everything.

About two hours in, I was reduced to what I can only describe as a giggling pile. I drew a rainbow with crayons and laughed at the silly names they'd given the colors. At this point, there were no visuals, and it felt more like a very strong weed high than anything else.

Things started changing rapidly, though. I felt sluggish and heavy, and time seemed to be standing still, or going backward and forward at the same time. Minutes felt like hours, and it was hard for me to concentrate on or keep track of anything.

In an attempt to keep track of my ever-changing feelings and thoughts, I began writing a stream-of-conciousness in the notepad application on my computer. I wrote maybe fifteen lines and then stopped, pushing myself against the headboard of the bed as the world began to shift around me.

I first noticed the visuals on my computer screen. The words that I had written began to make pictures, and most of the time, they looked like a giant, beautiful flower. But then it was like they were melting, or blending, or dancing. And then I looked away from the computer screen and noticed that everything was like that.

I continued to watch the words on my computer, laughing gleefully every once in a while when the letters would do a certain dance, or when the room would change colors all around it. As this all went on, I found myself stuck between moments of absolute joy and panic-inducing terror. I remember being afraid of what would happen if the world stayed like that forever, and how things would never be the same for me. But then the words would dance and I would laugh, feeling happy again.

Eventually, I realized that this needed to stop. I had been sitting in the same spot for almost three hours, periodically laughing and completely ignoring my boyfriend, who I could tell was getting weary of babysitting. So, choosing normality over this new, exciting world, I took a Valium and watched the ceiling weave and bleed until the visuals stopped. And then I was just tired, but of course couldn't sleep, so at about three in the morning, I took a sleeping pill and let all the colors fade to black.

I can definitely say that I had a good experience on LSD. I didn't take too much advantage of my altered state of mind to think of any profound thoughts or life-changing ideas. But at the end of the night, I was left with a smile, thinking that from now on I'm going to live life happier, and I still intend to stick to that promise.

The Best Experience of My Life

I don't know why LSD is portrayed as a scary drug that takes you to bad places. The first time I tried it, even though anxious as all hell before I placed the tab on my tongue, was unquestionably the most INCREDIBLE experience I have ever had in my life.

I was at a camping festival with my boyfriend, 2 best friends and a few other close friends and we all tried LSD for the first time. We had all experimented with copious amounts of cannabis but never anything more intense than that. Me and my boyfriend had been speaking of trying acid for a long time and it seemed like the perfect opportunity.

The week leading up to that friday was a long and anxious wait. We dropped the tabs around 12:30pm after we had set up in the paddock where we would be staying for the next 2 nights. I was nervous while I swished the tab around my mouth, but perfectly calm while I was waiting for it to hit.

About 40 minutes after the 4 of us had dropped, the LSD was beginning to take full hold of my mind – and it was amazing. It was just like my everyday reality, but I was finally completely switched on.

It was just like my everyday reality, but I was finally completely switched on.

 I was using parts of my brain and my senses that I didn’t even know existed. I could see, hear and feel things that I had never felt.

We soon discovered a river just down from where out campsite was and ended up spending what ended up being a good 5 hours exploring. I felt absolutely euphoric; I had never been happier in my life as I was for the 12 hour trip the single tab took me on. The leaves in the river were fluorescent pink, orange and green, a whole colour spectrum under the water. The world was pulsating, the trees breathing and the sky a kaleidoscope of the most amazing patterns. I could feel my heart beating in sync with the universe. The leaves were crushing under my feet, and I could feel the sound that they were making as I walked over them.

There was not a single negative thought in my mind; nothing could change my state of happiness and love for everything around me. The words coming from my mouth were from some higher part of my consciousness that all of a sudden understood that life is meant to be simple.

At about 9:00pm, 8.5 hours into the trip, we decided to smoke a few joints, mainly to get my appetite back due to the cramping hunger in my stomach as I hadn’t eaten all day (the only negative of LSD I can find). This was a FABULOUS idea. Immediately after my first hit, I could feel the trip going right back into its peak, but even more intense than before. The visuals turned right up; shadows on the tent became full colour images constantly changing shape forming new patterns. The tarp above me was like an ocean and the simple game of fruit ninja was like a new years eve firework display.

I was again in a state of complete bliss that lasted me until 1:30am. In this time I also had the most mind blowing sex I have ever had in my life. I lost all concept of where I was in the world and became what felt like a part of my boyfriend.

All in all, I can hardly explain the experience in words… Nothing does it justice!  It was honestly the best time I have had in my whole life.

The Less You Expect the More You Experience

The night was very young when my boyfriend came home after work. It was just after dark in late August and the heat of the day had yet to leave the air. Heat has always made me feel tired. The moment he came in the door, he tells me it's time to make myself pretty because tonight is his best friend's birthday.

'Ugh... so don't want to go out tonight.' I think to myself. 'Well, can't say no, and maybe I'll have a bit of fun'.

'Ok. Give me 20 minutes.'

All done up, we leave home to meet at the bar to do the normal birthday thing. A few funny things happened, good friends and good conversation flowed. As everyone starts to realize the number of sober people is getting lower and lower, we decide to move to a place where people won't have to drive for the night.

'Hey! Hey!' My boyfriend was calling me over to him.

'Wass up?' My little drunken self asks.

'Wanna drop some acid?'

At this point in my life, I had tried it once and it was kinda ehh.

At this point in my life, I had tried it once and it was kinda ehh.

 I knew that it was supposed to be mind blowing so I welcomed the opportunity.

'Yeah! Yes I do!'

After sucking that little paper to mush and leaving it under my tongue for a long period of measured time, I was piled into a car after being told I was being driven by a sober driver to a safe place to enjoy my experience.

The rest of the night was a blur of mind blowing experience there are no words for. In the midst of this blur there were some tangibles. I started to feel as if I was in control of myself from an alternate plane of existence. It was as if my life was like a serious rpg game that was not to be taken lightly. I was human, but not in the sense that I had always been human, or that presently I had to be only human. Almost like my body was an avatar that under normal circumstances, I am unaware of.

I found a comfortable seat and gazed into the pool. There was a reflection of the window above it in the glass still water. I reached out my hand and felt the smooth glass of the window on top of the pool from my seat 25 feet away, and ran my fingers over the wooden cross inlaid in the window. I became aware of these 'touch downs'. They looked like the representation of black holes that NASA or a physicist might use to illustrate how its gravity works on spacetime. They were all over. The house I was in was on the top of a hill looking out over the town, and I could see these touch downs all over the whole city. I knew that those were other people like me, who were human and also in another place. The other thing about these touch downs was that I could hear them. They sounded like a spiraling buzz. My boyfriend found me and sat with me. He took my face and kissed me. He told me he loved me. I told him I love him. We stared and stared until his third eye opened. He saw mine open. We stared.

I woke up the next morning before sunrise. I could still hear the touch downs, but I could not see them.

I woke up the next morning before sunrise. I could still hear the touch downs, but I could not see them.

 The horizon was black hills bathed in golden light. A ray of red sunlight pierced the crevice and cast a copper light over the town below. I felt like crap on the outside and like heaven on the inside. It was 7am. My boyfriend was still sleeping. I decided I couldn't just sit there and I wanted to let him sleep.

As my foot placed itself on the driftwood deck, I was aware through my feet all of the grooves. I found my balance and took a deep breath. The air was so clean. I went inside and was in a fairy tale. There was a solid wood stair case in the center of the room. The beams in the ceiling still had all the knots, and the rings made them appear to pop out. The kitchen was off to the left in this giant circular room, and there was an oval door leading off to a circular garden with an apple tree in the center. The smell of jasmine hung in the air like a heavy fog and bathed my senses in a peace I had never known.

I eventually went back inside. I couldn't stop pacing. I wanted to open the glass doors bordering the pool and jump in, but I knew it would be freezing. My boyfriend woke up and we reviewed what we could from the night before and sat in awe with each other remembering what we had shared. Another girl woke up. She happened to have the same name as my boyfriend's ex-wife and we saw significance in that.

The drive home was like a Disney movie. All the houses looked like the Disney animators designed the whole world. Everything was wavy and weird. Or as I said at the time 'weeeeeeiiiiiird' haha.  We got home and the whole place looked bigger in some places and smaller in others. We showered. The water was so revitalizing.  My mind wouldn't stop and I knew that I had created my entire reality. The sky rippled. The trees each looked different. One looked like it was made of string. One looked like it was made of reptars from rugrats back in the day. One looked like a pathway to Heaven and each branch was a different story along the path. I layed in the hammock and I could see the glowing dandelion seeds blowing in the breeze. I had this sense of how things imagine themselves into existence for every moment it exists. I could still hear the touch downs. For all that it mattered, it could have easily been 1973, 1967 or 2014. It didn't particularly matter. And that was nice.

My boyfriend got a phone call from his ex-wife saying she was on her way over to drop something off for him. I looked a him, he looked at me and we giggled remembering the girl from that morning. I spent some time with my white rabbit (literally) and thought about Alice in Wonderland. He wouldn't leave me alone and kept licking my cheeks. I wondered if he knew what I was experiencing and was happy.

I went inside and tried to draw, but the blank piece of paper showed me an elk' s head that as it moved, turned into a roaring lion. I couldn't concentrate. I decided to join my boyfriend in the bedroom and watched a trip video. A gentle sleep found me and I drifted into the most vivid dreams of my life. The next morning, I awoke and life was new.
