Hey guys!
Time for another first time review.
It’s going to be the one and only LSD!
First some facts:
LSD (Lysergic acid diethylamide) was first synthesized by the Swiss Albert Hofmann in 1938. He realized the psychoactive effects 5 years later. He was driving home from work by bike when the effects of the LSD started working. That day was called bicycle day.
LSD is a psychedelic drug that affects your mind and body and is capable of giving you (pseudo-) hallucinations. Pseudo hallucinations are the ones that you can recognize as one. Normal hallucinations feel like they were real.
Here some information on the dosage:
• 25 to 50 µg: First small effects on mind and body
• 50 to 100 µg: Stronger effects on mind and body, first pseudo hallucinations
• 100 to 300 µg: Strong effects on mind and body, first real hallucinations
• 250 µg: Albert Hofmann‘s first dose
• 300 to 500 µg: very intensive trip, mostly real hallucinations now
• 500 to 1.000 µg: Extremely high dose, only recommended for therapeutic use
My first dose was 180µg, which I felt was perfect for the first try, because I already had experience with magic truffles (https://steemit.com/firsttime/@morlon/first-time-magic-truffles).
The set and setting is also very important:
Set: This means how you feel before/while taking the drug. Don’t take psychedelics when you’re not sure about it or when you’re sad/uncomfortable.
Perfect set of mind would be: I’m happy to do this now and I’m looking forward to this new experience!
Setting: It means the place where you take it and the people that surround you. I don’t recommend doing in in public.
Perfect setting would be: At a friend’s house/in the nature with only nice people.
Let’s start:
It was carnival in Bavaria and me and my classmates wanted to go drinking. I was disguised as a rabbit (whole suit). We pre drank at a friend’s house, when I got a WhatsApp message from Jay.
He asked me about my plans for the evening. We texted a bit when he suddenly wrote he had some LSD. I was excited, changed my plans and went straight to him (which pissed the others off). I asked him if the 2 beers I drank were a problem, but he told me I takes the LSD about 1h to work, so I already sobered out at that time.
Jay was disguised as a pimp, so we looked quite funny. Imagine a pimp and a bunny on LSD ;)
We were sitting in his car, listened to some hip hop music and waited for the trip to start. When Jay and I started feeling something, we started walking around. We headed to the train station, because Jay told me about the bicycle day, so we wanted to “lend” a bike for some minutes and drive around. But we found only locked ones.
The body high in the beginning felt really weird. I only knew drugs that make you feel good, but LSD didn’t do that. It was just a weird feeling adapting to the situation. As everything was interesting in the beginning, Jay and I had a good body high.
We went back to the car, where Jay started playing a special LSD trip playlist. I noticed the first optical illusions when I looked at my phone. I saw some app symbols moving. They were going up and down, or spinning in circles. Jay saw the same, so we sat there for about half an hour watching my phone display.
I got a message from P-Dizzle and Mouse after that. They were in the town and wanted to meet us. So we went off to meet them. On our way, I saw trees moving and silhouettes in the night. The other ones didn’t know we were on LSD, so they were quite surprised when we told them.
They asked us if we were ok going to the Party in the middle of the town. We sad yes, because the idea of seeing hundreds of disguised people seemed nice.
The pseudo hallucinations got stronger and stronger, so we were seeing really crazy stuff. The costumes became real for me and I think I had some real hallucinations too, which scared me a bit. Jay felt the same, so the two of us went back to the car.
The trip was getting really heavy so we pulled we car seats back, turned the music louder, closed our eyes and let the trip work.
I was playing many video games at that time, especially Skyrim. That affected my closed eye hallucinations really hard. I was playing a Vampire in the game.
My first dream (that’s how I call the long closed eye hallucinations on LSD) was about me being on a vampire party in an old castle and talking with a nice vampire lady. The dream was not about sex, but I started to have feelings for that lady, who came back many times that evening.
LSD dreams are not like normal thoughts or dreams, you’re not really taking part, you’re more of a spectator. I looked around the medieval castle and enjoyed the bright colors of the dancing fire at the chimney.
The dreams suddenly ended when Jay asked me how I felt. I told him about my experience and asked him about his. He told me he was on an endless road seeing his memories passing by, which sounded very interesting.
We took the acid at 6 pm, now it was around 10:30 pm. We went back to the party to see the other guys again. They were already totally drunk and stoned. They asked us about the trip, but were too fucked up to understand the details. We went back to the car after some minutes, because it got too fucked up. Masses of people are not very comfortable on LSD. I felt like everyone was watching me, real paranoid.
How did it felt on the inside? I was kind of connected to nature and humanity, like on truffles, but the feeling was a lot clearer. I had still control other my mind. I asked myself many questions, for example why I’m so obsessed with money, or if starting taking drugs was a good idea. I also thought about my parents and that I should stop doing all this, because they are worried and I want to be a good son. It even felt kind of bad that I left the party of my classmates to meet Jay. I felt a bit egoistic for it.
After thinking about this, my trip went from “exciting” to “contemplative”. I was neither feeling good or bad, it was something between.
Jay noticed that and tried to cheer me up. It didn’t worked out well, so I had the idea of getting in the car again and closing my eyes.
The vampire lady came back to visit me again and I started getting happy again. It was around 12 when I had the idea of taking the train to get to my house and to sleep there. The first plan was sleeping in the car, but that really disgusted me. Jay loved the idea of sleeping on a cozy sofa, so he was into it. Another reason for my idea was, that I wanted to try playing Skyrim on LSD, because the best times of the night had to do with this game.
So we started heading to the train station again and went home.
The trip started to wore out a bit, but I still had some pseudo hallucinations of figures in the darkness on the way home.
My parents were on vacation, so we had the house for ourselves. The thought of playing Skyrim was not anymore on my mind, because I got kind of tired. We went to the living room, turned the lights down and tried to sleep. It didn’t work out well, so we browsed a bit on Instagram and talked about the evening. It was around 2 am when I put my phone away and finally managed to get sleep.
Why was sleeping hard, although I was very tired? I still had some closed eye hallucinations, so they hindered me sleeping.
So summed up:
The trip was a great experience, I had fun most of the time and the “bad” thoughts I had could have been productive if I didn’t try to push them away. I could also handle the trip really well.
Would I recommend taking LSD?
LSD is not the kind of drug you get addicted to, and getting addicted is the worst part about drugs, so it’s kind of safe. The problem is, if you have access to LSD, you might also try other drugs, which can lead to bad situations. So if you are already a stoner, you can try it, because it’s a great experience, but when you have nothing to do with drugs, stay away from it.
I also recommend a really low dose (50 – 100 µg) for the start, because if you lose control over the trip and get bad thoughts, you could get a bad/horror trip.
I hope you like my post =)
Stay tuned for more!
