LSD is one of those things that you either fall in love with or a short passing phase. I've had many friends do the same and I will never understand it. So long as it doesn't cause harm I'll be tripping til I die.
Btw 300ug is not a social dose. You got lied to. You'd be tripping damn hard

Scratch the 300ug. Might be around 200ug. Our favourite dosage was 3 liquid (dripped onto sweets) tabs (UK). Could be 60-80/100ug/tab, can't really be sure. I'm not up on the averages.

I'm sure he didn't mean it that way, it's all personal preference.
Despite what LSD can make us believe sometimes, you are not your friend :P People ARE different.
If he's not up for it you gotta leave him be and respect his decision. Maybe with time the curiosity will beckon and he'll delve with you again.
If he had a rough trip there's definitely gonna be a big fear of getting back on the horse (which is probably a good thing, the mind needs time to heal after a bad time, just like with PTSD).
If you really want to go deeper and explore/break through I'd say you're better off trying on your own anyway 
Thinking 300ug is a social dose also makes me question your knowledge of your tabs...

Please read my reply. As I explained, it probably wasn't 300ug. That was, to be fair, a wild guess. I don't know the average dosage of tabs around here, I dose based on the amount of tabs, usually 4 is enough for a breakthrough if I've not tripped in a while.
Good point about personal preference. I think that's what it is. He most definitely prefers weed, whereas I see weed more of a lifestyle drug.
Another thing, he's never taken LSD alone and cannot understand why somebody would. Maybe he's just not interested in exploring such places at the minute.

Even if the tabs were 100ug ea I think 4 would be a stretch for a breakthrough?
Yeah it's not for everybody. I love psychs waaaaaay more than 2 of my bestfriends who i've tripped with, they seem to dwell on the negatives of the trips, giving them a different view on them (which is fair enough).

I had friends do the same with mushrooms. I think IMO it's a ego thing he thinks he's conquered LSD or something my friend did the same when he had his first experience after the experience he was really egotistical to even have done shrooms and is back to tell the tale and wouldn't do it again because he didn't find it "profound" lmao. It's just fear and ego guiding your friend. Just let him be the way he is its his fault he doesn't enjoy LSD anymore

Not everyone finds meaning in psychedlics like we do.
I had a trip where I broke through and felt like I had no reason to trip anymore. That changed after a few days, mainly because I have some DMT I want to try, but I totally understand your friend. Maybe HE really got everything he can get from psychedelics. We're all different man. I wouldn't expect him to change his mind because of you, either. He might after a long time.

He is traumatized and he doesn't want it, end of story. He just doesn't want to tell you because he'd be ashamed. Stop trying to persuade him. The more respectful you treat him with his experience, the better.

Actually yeah, it's either what I said or he is traumatized. Scared. He probably freaked out and misunderstood the effects of psychedelics.

I've updated my original post, and I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. He had a major trip (those truffles) and essentially overdosed. But that was *years* ago, and he has tripped many many times since then, but never played with large doses.
It isn't about trying to persuade him. It's just, ya know, when you experience something massively positive, you want others around you to experience the same thing. It doesn't affect me either way, and thankfully my two brothers are equally as enthusiastic about psychedelics as I am.
Thanks for the feedback above! It's helped me understand other angles I hadn't considered.

I frequently go and visit the small boarder to death and insanity. Sometime you just need to take a break.
Most people never take psychedelics again when they once reach that state.. 99%
Believe me you will reconsider when you get there.. 
now you think you wont but bro YOU WILL IM FUCKING TELLING YA!

That point were you actually question whether reality is coming back the same way afterwords. (P.S. It doesnt )
