They showed us a video like
Before the video I absolutely had no desire to try acid, and after the video all I could think was like "what does a color taste like?!?!"
now I wanna try
Psychonaut with a couple of decades experience here: Acid can be excellent fun. For many years it was my favourite intoxicant. It definitely has a dark side to it tho.
If you are taking acid for the first time then you should do it with good friends and ideally have either a tripsitter (a sober friend who can help if things start to get a bit overwhelming) or someone who has taken it a few times before.
Do it in a safe space where you feel comfortable and is available for your use for the duration of the trip.
Be prepared for the long haul. A typical acid trip lasts around 8 hours and once you've dropped, there's no going back.
Have a playlist of music that makes you happy, and have your favourite feel-good movie on hand.
If you are feeling anxious or depressed DO NOT DO IT. Acid does not make you feel good like ecstasy or mdma or 2cb. If you are feeling shit it will make you feel 10x worse but if you are in a good place, with good friends, then it is amazing.
Thank you for listening to my head talk.
That's honestly one of the reasons I decided I probably don't want to try it. I'm genuinely a nice person but I lean hard into negativity and I am classified as a pessimist. It's one of the reasons why I'm pretty much the most prepared person in my friend group but it's also the reason why I don't want to take anything like acid because if I already think anything can go bad give me a reason to start like going into things that have no logical basis and I will probably end up in a bad place.
That's fair enough dude. It's strong stuff and it's hard to break out if you're having a bad one. Last time I did it was just after COVID, I was not in the right head space, and it really sent me sideways in a way that it never had before. So now I steer clear. I'd still recommend shrooms tho. They are a much friendlier psychedelic experience.
They should have just warned that acid would make you lose a few days. Shrooms will do that too but also land you in a bathroom for hours backandforth... was it just so much fiber??? I never experimented soaking them in hot water for a couple hours before ingesting like dried food mushrooms.
The chitin that makes up shrooms causes stomach upset because your body can't do anything with it. Making tea and discarding the solids may provide a smoother experience.
I'm sure there are other more thorough forms of extraction, but this is the basic way I know of.
til chitin isn't just a bug thing, and i am disturbed. somehow eating mushrooms is now akin to eating bugs at this moment. 😩
Look up stuff like lemontek. If you use a sugar base, psilocybin is sugar soluble. Should cut out the nasty feelings and be just slightly more potent. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
