I dont know if youd call it a comedown, but for the whole day after my trip (i didnt sleep at all the day after tripping) i was in a really contemplative introspective mood which isnt really normal for me.

For me, the day after any LSD trip is super-colorful and vibrant, and I always have new ways of seeing things in my life.

I really like LSD

LSD doesn't have a "comedown." It has an "afterglow." You'll feel awesome the following day. That's how it's always been for me.

i disagree

Yeah that's how I usually feel... usually the same with shrooms, except I'm super tired after shroomin'.

Same here. It's usually a time to kick back, relax, laugh, think about and discuss with your friends what just happened.

When I start coming down, I want to go back up. But, by that time, tolerance has set in. I guess it's quite the paradox.

Sobriety usually feels like a relief for me after a full-on LSD trip. Not that I don't love the trip itself, but it is exhausting, and it always feels fantastic to be able to relax again when it's over. At least for me.
Actually one of my favorite parts of the trip

This is true. It is a great time for reflection. The come up can be a bit rocky, I always think about sticking a square peg in a round hole. But the come down is pretty smooth sailing.

I love LSD and have taken it over a hundred times... but 80% of my trips have ended with me feeling like shit for a day or two. Especially with a high dose, a 12 hour trip really takes a lot out of you. I end up feeling totally mentally and physically exhausted, spaced out, depressed, and generally just feel like shit for a day or two after a good LSD trip.
It's something I've come to expect... whenever I trip I make sure I have 2-3 days without work or major responsibilities and it works for me.

i've never had a problem. I mean you may not be able to sleep if you take it later in the day but it doesn't feel bad or anything.
i disagree.. i always feel depressed after an lsd trip...
That sucks man, I always feel fine, sometimes even amazing for next few days.

the character of the comedown off LSD can depend on:
1) the quality of the LSD
2) set, setting, and the experience at the peak
3) hydration and vitamins taken
4) other drugs taken
Generally, psychedelics can produce either a sense of fulfillment or depression the day after the experience depending on various factors. Typically LSD wears off very slowly and can prevent sleep for up to 15 hours after ingestion (IME).
MDMA is known to produce depression the day afterwards due to damage to seratonin receptors by free radicals released during metabolism of the molecule. However, heavy dosing of antioxidant vitamins before, during, and after the experience can help reduce this damage, thus preventing depression the day after.
LSD does not cause any similar damage to receptors. However, psychedelic experiences can often be exhausting for the brain/nervous system to deal with, and neural fatigue may cause depression or dysphoric feelings.
Taking vitamins or eating fruit, drinking plenty of water, and getting proper sleep can help prevent negative comedowns from most psychedelics.
