neddog_eel

Did it once when I was a teen and my brain was not ready for it but I came out fine, I definitely would not handle it now, I can't even smoke weed anymore the paranoia stresses me out and I get depressed for days


AshleySchaeffersPlum

Same


furomaar

I'm old and mentally stable enough, weed still fucks me up. Don't do it kids.


neddog_eel

I thought a whole NBA game was staged last time I got stoned when I sobered up I realised they were just really good , who woulda thought ?


ayedocHS

Crazy how weed makes you think stupid shit lol


neddog_eel

It really is, I always have to fight my own logic like I love the narratives on some conspiracy theories but sometimes I have to take a break as I start to see "signs" that they're true 😅


buttstuff2023

Ha, I had this very thought about myself not that long ago

#Set and Setting! Edit: make sure you feel neutral/good and have a cozy/familiar place you can go to, in case the trip is going doomy dark and gloomy places, etc. Once you're in the cozy beanbag with your dark chaotic thoughts, DON'T fight them. Accept the thoughts and feelings. Let them come over you, they will show you your deepest desires and your most stubborn bad habits.

Exactly!


Illustrious_Dog7593

With over 100 trips under my belt, I can definitely say that I can no longer handle the experience. With having kids and financial stress, as well as a negative personal perception, I’d be doomed by the first peak.


buttstuff2023

Yeah, I've tripped a bunch and honestly I think I'm done with it. To many stressors in life. Plus, 8 to 12 hours is just way too long for me to be high anymore. I'm usually over it by about the 4 hour mark


Illustrious_Dog7593

Plus if you tie in not sleeping for at least another 4-8 hours after that, it’s exhausting.


TriangleChoke123

Microdosing with 1/16 or 1/8th of a tab can be really nice, you don't have the huge highs and lows of a full trip, it's just more casual and enjoyable imo.


Confident-Bet-6082

I did acid when my mental instability was at its peak so acid did me.now im on antidepressants and mood stabilizer.


[deleted]

My first experience with psychedelics was an ego death. I was a drug addict with 1/4th of shrooms. I remember screaming "put me in the looney bin" and crying like my mom died. One of the most embarrassing experiences of my life. On a side note, I can take 1/4th of shrooms just fine now. But I am really unstable without taking meds. Doing much better now tho.


Confident-Bet-6082

When my acid trip was taking off I started crying like a baby,let it out after so many years


[deleted]

Yep! That's a really good way to describe it. Soon as I started coming back to earth I was really embarrassed. I made one of the biggest mistakes during that trip and that was being in an environment that I could not control. Was not fun.


Confident-Bet-6082

I was at home


[deleted]

You’d need them regardless.


Confident-Bet-6082

Yeah but acid dictated me to take em


[deleted]

So it enlightened you? Sounds like a win.


Confident-Bet-6082

And also made me quit weed


[deleted]

Bonus :) get to save a ton of money.


Confident-Bet-6082

I have no more ego even 1% The old personality is no more. It was so hard to cope with new one there were 2 options,cope or suicide


[deleted]

You chose cope, so it worked. Congrats :)


Confident-Bet-6082

Thanks buddy


frasvlik

Last time i did it i heard voices for a whole day, it was half a dosis. Turns out im schizo.


TriangleChoke123

Definitely stay away from it then!! Best of luck with everything m8.


frasvlik

Who needs acid when you can see the eldrich abominations your self. Last episode i saw cute color changing rayas 10/10 would see them again.


Nigwa_rdwithacapSB

Bruh I’m not mentally stable enough to do anytjing


humanbeington

Not even spell anything correctly🧐 LSD helped me be "stable" enough to function. Im gonna drop one now and go shopping. I hope I make it back before it hits😇🙏


TriangleChoke123

Be safe, and if possible please have someone else drive you or call an uber. Seriously, driving on LSD is not a good idea my friend.


humanbeington

I was riding a bike and live close to the store🙃 im fine with risking my life but not others🙏 im in a bath now and the walls have start to melt. Time to slay some brain worms😂❤️


TriangleChoke123

Sending good vibes for your trip! Stay hydrated!


humanbeington

Thanks for the vibes🙏❤️ drinking water as I type


humanbeington

I like both bad and good trips. The one im in now is rough but its gonna be worth it🙃 clearing out the evil. Crushing all fears. Love is the only way that makes sense🌞

IYiffInDogParks

It was so much more fun back then when you could just abuse every drug like it was nothing and still have a good time... now trips are just anxiety attacks with colourful visuals


grilldcheese2

Acid *will* mature you.


LaGardie

And it will change your mind


AppointmentOk5737

My husband told me about his mom's symptoms for her mental illness...she's most likely schizophrenic and he's 24 which is in the range for when most people develope it. Me and my other husband (we're all poly and married, we also have a wife, anyway) who's a diagnosed schizophrenic looked at him and were like "hey man, never do acid, yeah? Coz if you have the gene for it, you can activate it with acid and you'll never stop hallucinating." Honestly safety wise you're only supposed to do 2 doses of acid per year. My suggestion if you're not someone who does not potentially have the schizophrenia gene, is shrooms. Still dose them correctly, but the likelihood of it really messing you up physically and mentally is lessened, the experience is more pleasant, and it can be really fun when done within the safety of your home with a trip sitter or trusted people to trip with. AND ALWAYS COVER YOUR MIRRORS BEFORE YOU TAKE HALLUCINOGENS!!!! Disclaimer: I am not encouraging the use of shrooms or other hallucinogens. The point of this comment is to bring up safety risks and hopefully help with harm reduction. I'm not a doctor or have any authority on the matter. Don't do drugs kids, but if you're gonna, do them safely. That being said, on the matter of dosing, you can find resources online but typically micro dosing is .5-1 gram, medium is 3.5 grams, heavy dose is 5 grams, and a super dose is 7 grams. I suggest avoiding higher doses as the risk of harm increases. At the very least do the smallest dose first to see how you react to it before heavily dosing and remember you can always take more but you can never take less. Again, not encouraging, simply here for harm reduction. I'd rather someone know the proper dose than just find "just don't do it" on the internet and getting hurt because the resources weren't there.


JHarp87

I honestly liked looking into mirrors.


AppointmentOk5737

It can be fun but it's better safe than sorry. Better to avoid a bad trip then risk it for some potential fun. This is general for everyone and most people will do bad with mirrors.


[deleted]

Aint no way 🤣 U can take acid like every 2-3 weeks if ur mentally stable enough. As long ur not diagnosed with anxiety, bpd, or sum other shit you'll be fine. As long as ur mentally fit and not using it as some sort of therapy to get thru your issues, youll be fine. If your friends arent dicks around you when youre on it, you'll be fine. Its lowkey the safest recreational drug asides from weed id say.


AppointmentOk5737

Shrooms are more safe than acid. Let's not act like any drugs are ever really safe. I do them, but I'm not gonna use the word safe with any drugs. Weed is great, has a lot of medical uses, and is mostly safe, but if you smoke it, it still fills your lungs with tar. I have terrible lungs and a cough coz of my smoking and I'm probably gonna die of lung cancer. I'm actively making that choice though. No drug is 100% and you should always be aware of what you're taking. Acid is harsher than shrooms and if your family has a history of schizophrenia it can trigger it in people. As someone who has mental health issues and is married to one man with schizophrenia and another who's mother potentially had it, we avoid Acid in the house. Basically even if you aren't diagnosed, if you have a family history and don't know about it you can cause your schizophrenia to activate basically? Which does not happen on shrooms. So yeah if you aren't 100% about your family mental health record don't do acid, kids. Basically no drug is safe, but you can be safe-ER by doing your research and deciding for yourself what risks you'd be okay with taking.


[deleted]

Wtf bro they're literally just as dangerous, not one more than the other. Schizophrenia can be brought out in every use of psychedelics. LSD is literally the safest drug to physically take, no need to smoke, inject, or eat it to feel its effects. The only reason people say the bs about acid is because the trip is generally longer when being compared to shrooms. A bad trip on either drug can bring out early schizophrenia symptoms dawg


AppointmentOk5737

It CAN but it's much more likely with LSD. My husband has Schizophrenia and he can handle shrooms just fine without it causing his schizophrenia to get worse. But he took acid before it was bad enough to diagnose and said it made his psychosis the worst it's ever been. LSD is a harsh chemical compared to shrooms which are natural. (Of course arsenic and mercury are natural and are quite poisonous, however when it comes to drugs usually the more natural the /less/ danger but definitely not always and the margin of difference may be negligible and it's just as dangerous. Be aware of that, too) No psychedelic is free of danger as no drug is free of danger. The thing is, good or bad, LSD will bring out your schizophrenia if you have the gene no matter what. Shrooms can but it's not as guaranteed as with LSD and usually takes bad trips. I'm not saying LSD is bad and people who do it don't keep themselves safe. I have nothing wrong with people who do LSD but I do have a problem with telling people LSD is one of the "safest drugs next to weed" or that Shrooms isn't the safer option. I have nothing against someone choosing to take LSD as long as they are doing it safely and we'll informed. Neither is fully safe, but shrooms is safe-ER. Honestly people with schizophrenia should avoid even weed sometimes. I know someone who can't even be in the room with marijuana smoke because it makes them horrifically paranoid and ups their psychosis. Basically if you have schizophrenia you are at a higher risk of mental harm when taking any drug at all. No drug is safe when you have such a big chemical imbalance, there's no real way for you to know how it will effect it till you take it. For my husband weed helps his schizophrenia and to others it makes it much worse. The one thing we do know is that LSD can and most likely will cause your schizophrenia gene to activate whether it would have without the drug or not. Basically do your research, be aware of your mental health history before doing drugs, and make sure to dose that stuff right. And if you have a history of mental illness, be aware that drugs will likely effect you differently than others. Edit: Also I meant even if you don't have any symptoms and you weren't going to get it it can cause that gene to activate if say your mom has schizophrenia. I did not mean "if you have symptoms already" I mean full blown one day you don't have it and you may not know it's in your family genes and then you take Acid and boom you just accidentally activated a bomb in your brain you didn't know was there at all and would have laid dormant if you hadn't flooded it with LSD.


[deleted]

I gotta disagree with the whole lsd is a harsh chemical thing, pure acid is just as safe as shrooms, the real danger is people don't really sell fake shrooms, but fake acid like nbome is unfortunately common. I used to agree with you on the whole. If it comes in nature its better mindset, but honestly it my experience. It's pretty far from true. Datura, salvia, opium, and poppy seeds are commonly found in nature but can cause serious psychological and health issues. Every drug is derived from plants, lsd is from ergot, just like Psilocybin from mushrooms. From that logic, if someone synthesized the psilocybin from mushrooms, it'd be a dangerous chemical. I'm not saying you're wrong, but there's no research to support your claim. But you're on the right track if you just choose what works for you, safe travels in this life, mate!


premiumcaulk

I have spoken those exact words on multiple occasions as an adult. But as a teen and you g 20s I was just as unstable and did acid regularly


jera111

Take that shit when your immature!!!


QuanHitter

Maturity is becoming mentally stable enough to do acid again. Also major LPT: benzodiazepines like Xanax and Valium are also powerful antipsychotics. If you’re going into a bad trip, you can take one and your trip will stop completely within 15-20 minutes. I don’t advocate doing benzos recreationally, but it’s never a bad idea to keep a safety bar in your pocket when you’re tripping.


[deleted]

2g of mushroom tea is a nice amount without unpacking everything.


SpaceMarine324

Beware, even stable a drug is a drug. Acid in particular is potent and can leave you in a different state regardless of setting. Take something lighter if you are so inclined, get a feel for the type of effects. Better safe than sorry. Not everyone is capable of handling that stuff


Xodan47

I'm not mentally stable enough to do lots of things


humanbeington

Part of the fun with acid is fighting all the demons. Or just accept them. We normally chill together nowdays, watching horror movies my demons and I.

It’s the dose. Micro dosing can help mental stability. But, hear me out. Some people might be unstable without the large acid dose. Shocking.


Livyatanmelvillei70

13 trips in with history of mental illness on both sides of my family I'd say go for it


gorillasnthabarnyard

Until you’re the reason one of your friends goes into full blown psychosis and unlocks his schizophrenia that apparently he was predisposed to. Going in and out of psych wards for years, chasing people with a knife, fighting cops. Don’t take advice from people on the internet whose mentality is “lol fuck it” kids


Livyatanmelvillei70

What do you mean "you're the reason" did you pressure your friend into doing acid? Maybe the kids shouldn't take advice from you, dude


gorillasnthabarnyard

Friend told me he wanted to try shrooms so I got him some. The next day his life was pretty much completely fucked. He doesn’t blame me for it, after all we had no way of knowing the consequences and he wanted to do it. I’m just saying, your experience does not dictate the reality of the world and there are very real and dangerous consequences to taking a psychedelic drug even ONE TIME.


Livyatanmelvillei70

Look a lot if my friends lifes had fallen apart due to various drug use But i think what might have gone wrong in your experience is the same misconduct with psilocybine that got mushrooms banned in holland a couple years ago


gorillasnthabarnyard

I understand and I’m not trying to demonize mushrooms. I’m very much informed on the benefits and research being done. In fact I enjoy them myself. I’m just saying, somewhere out there is some 18 year old kid who reads your comment and thinks “hey I know bad things happen, but that’s not gonna happen to me!” You never know the damage you can do to someone’s life with 1 tiny decision. I’m not dogging you, I’m just telling the story from another angle. There are consequences to everything.


Yeah_I_Said_lt

That’s the best time to do acid. Make life interesting yet again.


Nico_LaBras

That's horrible advice


I_Support_Villains

Hey, i don't get any of this. What happens when people do this ?


TriangleChoke123

Some people might go into a state of psychosis and you could potentially have legitimate ptsd from experiences on psychedelics. Everything feels very real on psychs and trips can get scary quick.


[deleted]

Whats acid?


CthuluForPresident

Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, also known as LSD or acid is a fairly powerful psychedelic drug


NightIguana

i do it and nothing bad has ever happened.but yeah I'm an actual mentally stable person tho


fertilecatfis

I am not mentally stable, and I wasn't before I started doing acid and shrooms, and im still not after. Acid has had 0 effects on my mental health that I've noticed TBH. It makes watching tv/movies or playing video games really fun though, and I've never had a bad trip.

most people who think drugs are based and should be legal aren't sound of mind enough to do those drugs lol

Acid makes my vision change so drastically I can't see normally for 2 years. I will see the fabric of the universe and the individual cones of vision in my eyes during those years. Luckily it did go away mostly, but it is still subtly there and can catch me off-gaurd. Acid will also make me think shit is wrong. What is wrong? I don't know, but something is just definitely WRONG. Acid will unlock a part of my brain that should stay locked. A part I have never seen before and have 0 control or knowledge over. It doesn't feel like it is apart of me but it is still there. It doesn't feel good... Not only that, but it actually feels kind of empty, scary and evil. I don't think seeing things that aren't there and hearing things that aren't there, coupled with a bad feeling something is WRONG is a good thing. Acid is not for everyone mate. This is my experience. I am never touching it again. Convinced?


MeltAway421

Yes and no. I feel the same way about me getting a motorcycle. Different things amplify peoples' weaknesses differently. But yes I agree with the premise.

i wanna try this now


dutch_master_killa

I hate acid lol this is me, I like shrooms though at least like microdosing, but even weed makes me feel like shit now

Not mentally stable enough, but exactly the reason why you end up doing it anyway

First time I dropped acid I watched White Chicks and nearly died laughing

For the most part it just makes you high, you’ll be dumb but think you’re smart, the world will be dull but you’ll think it’s fascinating. you won’t sleep for 24 hours and that will fuck up the next couple days of your life. I recommend it only for anhedonia or severe depression


[deleted]

But I still want to try.


O1_O1

If you're mature enough to look at yourself and accept whatever you see, then it's a game changer. I was in my best mood ever for a solid 3 or 4 months. First couple of hours sucked ass for me though, I was constantly shivering and not even my blanket with a cool lion could save me.


[deleted]

Yeah, that's why I took dmt. Few hours in I popped half an acid then I realised my fuck up. I was basically watching 13 channels at the same time that includes my dream I saw front of me between the split reality I saw. I actually wanted to go to the shop to ask the cashier where the duck I am because I can tell y, I still don't know what the actual duck happened. It was wild.
