Cool, I heard from someone else that there is a bad comedown and withdrawal similar to that of X. I guess he was wrong

my first lsd comedown was totally anxiety-ridden but it was because it wasn't the nicest trip in the world. the times after though have been absolutely lovely.

I've never heard of a comedown, I've certainly never felt one.

Only things that have made me feel shitty on the comedown are alcohol, cocaine, and bunk ecstasy pills
Real MDMA even doesn't have much of a 'comedown' for me. I just feel high, and it gradually tapers off until I don't feel high anymore.
Now with LSD whether or not your mood is going to change is a whole different thing. If you start tripping about your 'comedown' and just wanting it to end, then you probably wont feel too good. Stay positive, go with the flow, bro.

I personally have never experienced one, if fact I kinda get the opposite sorta like an "after glow" – but, I would think that like most drugs, everybody is affected differently. For example, I've only had bade comedowns on x because I took way too many... but others get it regardless, so I'm sure individual tolerance/body chemistry is a big factor with this.

Comedown from LSD or X isn't bad. Even Cocaine and Meth aren't bad. Try doing Meth or Cocaine or X for an entire year off and on, then tell me about not the comedown, but the psychologically attachment to the "mind state," more like the drug itself and how much you miss it.
Any comedown effect you have is purely psychological, as the effect of the drug itself. If you want the "experience" to be like X it will be. If you want to just listen to what everyone else says it will be like, then that is become your personal definition for what X will be like.
Define your own reality, stop letting others define it for you!
Oh and blah blah blah. Everything is defined as X, because people have been alive so long and define X as X. But that doesn't mean you can reprogram X to be A, B, C, D, ~. It can be anything you want it to be.

For me it depends on when I take it for the most part. If I take it at the beginning of my awake cycle, I tend to not suffer from it. If it keeps me awake all night, then yes.
I think part of it has to do with "integration" of the experience. I don't know a lot about this, but it's something Leary talks about. Might look at his version of the Book of the Dead.

I agree with nicechrisman. If I day trip, I love the comedown. Its just so incredibly smooth... I feel like a feather slowly floating back down to earth through the beautiful blue sky. If I night trip, which I usually don't anymore, I just get really tired and then feel crappy the next day due to not sleeping very much.

I think its interesting that so many people here think of a comedown as only a bad, unpleasant thing, and if it wasn't bad or unpleasant, it wasn't a comedown. What do you normally call coming down off drugs then? Just because you're still having fun doesn't mean that you just stay tripping forever. Most people do come back to reality at the end of a trip.

I normally associate "comedowns" with addictive drugs - amphetamines, opiates, alcohol, etc.
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 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.

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.

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.

I'm going to join the afterglow crowd. After an acid or shroom trip I feel great for up to weeks later. It's like doing a clean operating system install on a computer. Everything feels so clean and concise.
Strangely enough I actually have an afterglow even if I have a bad trip. That is, even if I endure the terror of a bad trip I usually end up feeling like a million bucks afterwards for at least a few days.
I was actually highly surprised by this thread, finding that people actually experience a negative "comedown" after using the traditional psychedelics. I wonder if it has anything to do with the psychological state of mind that a person is in before tripping. While I myself consider myself to have a great happy and wonderful life, it seems that many users on these forums complain of issues such as "anxiety" and "depression". There could very well be some kind of underlying link between these "disorders" (I prefer to call them personalities) and how people feel during a comedown. If depression is in fact caused by an imbalanced brain chemistry then the afterglow/comedown binary may shed some light in this field of research.
You have awoken my inner scientist, we must conduct a study!

I did shrooms a few times but everytime the comedown was pretty crappy. I will get dissapointed and want to get back up, after a couple of hours I notice everything around me still has a trippy vibe. It's not really reality anymore and I get the feeling the trip changed my perception forever and I basically feel turned inside out and secluded from everyone else, overthinking everything that happened. I think I'm extra sensitive to psychedelics because a normal shroom dose has lasted 8-10 hours before I came down completely...

For me it's usually just the fact LSD takes so much out of you. I generally trip at night... with mushrooms I can trip, come down in 6 hours, still be able to sleep that night and feel amazing the next day. With LSD the trip is 8-12 hours, highly stimulating, and there's no chance of sleeping that night unless I drink myself to sleep. Usually I just end up going the night without sleep, feeling exhausted and spaced out for a day or two afterwards.

The sleep factor is a main issue. Most people trip overnight and then do have jetlag. If you start your trip in the AM then you'll feel less lag time after.

This. With acid, I've found noon to be the perfect time of day to dose.

Have you ever tried melatonin? It usually helps me out with post-trip sleep difficulty.

I wouldn't consider coming down from LSd to be, well, a comedown. It's just like ........woah.... for me. I'm really content and spaced out. WHen I get home after a day of tripping I just curl up in my bed with the blank slate that is my mind and I just lay around for like an hour or two till I can fall asleep. I wouldn't consider it to be a negative thing at all. It's always just like..........woah.....

i think it's grueling. Headache, stomach ache, joint aches, cant sleep, melatonin doesnt work because lack of melatonin isnt the problem, trouble eating, trouble going to the bathroom, etc, etc.
It makes me feel like an alien who cant be supported by earth's atmosphere. that or Im a really old man or have parkinsons or cerebral palsy or something.

I feel sorry for you. I don't know what I would do if acid did that to me

when I get negative symptoms from LSD comedown, I find smoking tons of weed helps.
I think dosage can have a lot to do with the extent of the comedown. If I only take like 1-3 hits, the comedown ain't much, but if I take a 10 strip, I'll be kinda wrecked afterwords.

IMO weed is the key to having a pleasant LSD comedown. It makes all the difference in the world.

I've had that many times. For me, weed is an amazing potentiator no matter what I'm on. I can trip on acid and when I'm coming down if I smoke, I'll be right back in the trip again.
Smoking on the comedown of shrooms is a different story, it always brings me higher than the peak. That combo is ridiculous. Plus I tend to speed smoke when I trip and that always gets me in trouble.
Timing is key though, if you wait too long it brings you back up but much more mellow.

During the comedown I usually just feel exhausted. Whenever I trip at night I usually end up taking something like xanax or nyquil to fall asleep. The day after tripping I definitely feel an "afterglow". To others I probably just seem really spaced out, but for me the day after tripping I feel almost reborn. My outlook on life is usually somewhat altered. Also if I smoke weed the day after my trip(>24hrs) it feels MUCH more psychedelic than normal.

I used to enjoy the afterglow when i was younger but ever since a few hundred trips in it got to be grueling. I dont think I even enjoy LSD anymore besides the peak.

I guess it would depend on how much you had.
Usually I wouldn't bother with minute doses so I usually feel a bit worn out but unable to fall asleep which sucks I guess.
The day after I feel a bit sad as if I've said goodbye to a friend I'll never see again. I suppose its from the downregulation of 5-HT receptors due to their heavy agonisation. If I've planned a mind shattering trip I'll make sure to take the next day off just to restore my signal transduction patterns.
Overall I'd say its nothing special. Nothing that poppin a xanax and smoking some joint wont fix.

pretty much the same here, unless it's on a tiny dose (1/8-1/4 hit) and taken during the day. though we got some crystal a while back that was apparently saved from the 60s, which was smooth all the way through.

I guess I can see how this would happen, LSD can really put you through the ringer physically...
I dunno though... I still find it pleasant overall. You might feel exhausted after LSD, but I still find the phrase "comedown" to be inappropriate, because I associate it with drugs whose crashes will actually deprive you of the ability to feel happiness and decrease your anxiety/panic threshold (booze and hard stimulants for example). LSD might leave you feeling tired and out-of-sorts, but if you've ever had a serious hangover from one of those nastier drugs I feel like you'd have to agree there's no comparison...

Yeah definitely... you can't compare an LSD "comedown" to something like E, it's just not the same thing.
