LSD vs Shroomz

Hello all. I am planning on tripping for my first time (again, last time was bad shroomz) Should I do LSD or shroomz first? I am a very experienced cannabis/pill user and I was wondering what your recommendations are. How much should I take if I do LSD/shroomz. Thanks for your help.

www.erowid.org And read the FAQ on this site and any other links from Erowid. A good starting dose on acid (depending on potency) is usually one tab. It also depends on how hard you want the trip to be. Of course, for a first time it pays to play safe. Last time was bad shrooms? They were fake/wrong kind? Or you had a bad shroom trip?

The shroomz were fake/bad. I didnt know what was up. I took about 2 dried g's and waited and waited and nothing ever happened. Kinda disappointing.

Well, I like both shrooms and acid, so it's up to personal preference on your part. Just read up heaps on the 2 and decide which you would rather start out on. Both have a lot of positive things to it, and I reccomend them both

I recommend acid. Acid is more recreational, and there's less of a chance of a bad trip. But on the other hand, it's easier to know the potency of shrooms, whereas with acid, sometimes 2 tabs will hardly do anything for you and other times it'll make you trip balls.

Coolness. I have read up a grip on both LSD and psilocybin and both sound like heaps of fun. However, I think acid might be a little too intense for one of my first hallucinogenic experiences, so I'm not sure. That's why I'm trying to decided between the two. Would you say LSD is alot more intense/totally out of it visual experience? Which one is least likely to give me a bad trip for the first time?

Well, after reading a lot about both of them, I found acid to be much less intense than I thought it'd be, tho my experience with shrooms was even weaker. I mean, don't get me wrong--I got plenty fucked up, but I didn't get any significant visuals other than a few tracers, and this was on about two and a half hits. Of course, I've talked to some people who said they tripped their ass off from two and a half hits, so potency can vary widely. The funnest thing for me was the time distortion. I would be like, "I've been sitting here forever," then look at my watch and realize I'd only been sitting there for 2 minutes. Crazy shit. BTW, unless you take a high dose of either, I wouldn't worry too much about a bad trip. In fact, the less you worry about it, the less likely you are to have one. Just sit back and enjoy it.

Well, if I were you I wouldn't take both at the same time. I knew a kid who had a bad reaction from eating shrooms and acid, but he also drank some beer. I know beer and shrooms don't mix well.
Shit it all depends on your preference. Are you HARDCORE and want to trip a 10hour psychidelic adventure(lsd) OR ARE YOU wanting to take it easy for about 5 hours(shrooms)which is still an adventure but not as intricate as lsd.
if you go with LSD write on your hand YOU'RE TRIPPING. in case you ever stumble bout a bad trip it'll put some sense into you. And remember nothings seriously bad when you laugh about it.

My first time on shrooms I felt extremely confused and depressed. My first time on acid I had a blast. From personal exprience I would definetly go with acid but many people here seem to think shrooms are a lighter trip. For me though acid is A LOT less heavy. And it takes less acid to get visuals then shrooms from my experience. I mean on shrooms I have to be tripping hard as fuck to see anything but with acid I get tracers off a small trip. If you do go with acid be careful. Ask someone whos tried the same acid you would take how strong it is. If they say one hit will fry your balls off then start with half a hit. If they say it takes a couple just start with one. I haven't heard anyone else say this but the first time i did shrooms and acid(not at the same time) they both fried my balls off off a small amount. A month after I first ate acid I took the same amount of the same acid(which had been kept in a freezer so it didn't degrade) and didn't trip half as hard as the first time. Either way you go think positive. If you are nervous you are likely to have a bad trip.

Shrooms all the way
Psilocybin and DMT are close to Serotonin and LSD is not as close , it still is similar though and so I say Shrooms for these reasons
If you get "healthy" shrooms they will have psilocybin and if you buy acid it can be modifications of LSD (and some are good) some smoother I hear but shrooms will always have psilocybin and even if you are getting LSD it might not be pure!
and I dont think acid is bad , in fact even unpure acid wont kill you it hasent gone through all the steps theres still Iso-LSD in there!!!
good acid may be 90% pure 100% is best and what people call "dirty acid" is 40% pure maybe lower I am not sure

Don't go telling him theres "dirty acid" so he won't want to take it. Street Acid is according to the DEA's samples around 98% pure. And like you said the impurities are harmless just like lsd. And if one can make acid he can spend 2 hours to convert the iso-lsd(which is harmless anyway) to lsd. And analogs of lsd are always weaker(except a couple occasions in the 80's were there was slightly stronger analogs). Even acetyl-lsd is weaker and smoother so if he were to get acetyl-lsd it would be a better trip(smoother at least). And how the hell are you going to say some acid has 60% impurities???? How do you know??? Are you a chemist who has tested samples of street acid for purity???? I highly doubt it. Like you said you're not sure so don't go posting shit discouraging the use of a perfectly safe psychedelic. And shrooms and dmt being closer to serotonin have nothing to do with anything. and what about beocrystine(spelling??) Some shrooms can have more of that shit then others causing a less comfortable trip. I don't see that discouraging anyone. I would consider that an impurity(at least something that you could do without) in shrooms wouldn't you?? thats not stopping anyone from using them or enjoying them.

i love both(shrooms and acid). i am a shroom eater for just 1 year but i am an lsd eater for more than 4-5 years:) i believe that lsd is for a more young croud(just my opinion,dont flame me) and shrooms are for odler people. it depends what u want from your trip. if u just wanna have fun with a few friends eat 1-2 hits LSD. if u wanna take something fromt his trip( more spiritual) eat 3,5g shrooms(if they're cubensis of course)

LSD has stomped a mud hole n my ass b4. It was my own fault though. I took what i thought was 1 hit but it was actually 3 they were gel tabs and they had melted together. By the time we realised what we did it was to late to do anything except ride it out.
I think shrooms give off a cleaner feeling buzz. I always felt like shit after a acid trip with the exception of a few times.
I also lost 16 hits on the sidewalk downtown that night. The cool part is I found them the next day  they must have droped out of my pocket when i pulled out my smokes
