When I take high doses of HBWR, I get moments of lucidity for 15 to 45 minutes and start tripping again. Been this way for over 16 years. Anyone else ever experience this? At hour eight or ten I'd wonder if I was still tripping and then wormholes and spiraling tornados bend reality and shit.
Good old LSA.

I think you just answered your own question but speaking of lsa I once ate 12 hbwr on an empty stomach, I took odansetron to help with nausea it helped with the nausea but the seeds gave me horrible stomach cramps. I think what I felt can be compared to a girls period so that's interesting I'm a dude and I can say I know what a period feels like haha. Anyways the trip wasn't worth the cramps fuck that shit. A couple weeks ago I was gonna try it again but just the smell off the crushed up seeds made my stomach cramp it was like PTSD for me.

LSA came from the original german name Lysergsäureamid. Säure is acidic or "sour" in german. Back in the day, chemicals were often tasted and acidic chemicals are commonly sour.

LysergSäureAmid. An amide is an important functional group. Lysergic acid is the main moiety aka LysergSäure. When germans come up with a name for a new thing, they often just cram together already know things
Example: Hand = hand Shoe = shuhe gloves = Handschuhe literally means "finger shoes"

"LSA" may well relate to the German title but you know that "LSA" has never been written in any professional academic publications.* It's amusing how the one publication I have where lysergsäureamid is used does not use "LSA" as an abbreviation, although the abbreviation the article does use is probably inaccurate.

Source: Solms, H. 1956. Chemische Struktur und Psychose bei Lysergsäure-Derivaten. Praxis, 45:746.
I will provide some background information on the abbreviation used in the article. This abbreviation is based on the Sandoz code name, LA-111; this code name was created based on lysergic acid and was applied to lysergic acid amide before lysergic acid amide was known to be a naturally-occurring chemical.

*With the exception of a few recent publications that picked up the "LSA" slang name.

Don't be so presumptuous. As implied in my post, lysergic acid diethylamide (lysergsäurediethylamid) is called LSD for historical/stylistic reasons. The title "LSA" promoted by Erowid does not have the same authority behind it as LSD and there's no justification for English speakers to use a German-based abbreviation, save for that of mimicking LSD, if you consider that a justification...

That may be true, but if being mean means being accurate I'd perfer that trade-off.
The LSA acronym convention mostly comes from LSD, the LS part of the acronym is meant to signify the Lysergic group
because things like acids in the common name aren't usually considered in establishing an acronym out of simplicity.
Functional groups and common name associations, like lysergic or caffeic, take precedence over chemical characteristics like an acid or base.

Sorry.
I'm surprised Zombi made this thread because ergot* is not a popular subject on the drug forums, let alone the details of the names used for one of its chemicals...
*In 2004 it was confirmed that ergoline-containing morning glory seeds are infected with ergot. Further reading: morning glory seed info archive

You're wrong. LSD: MY Problem Child (1979, Albert Hofmann) states that in the context of world distribution, Sandoz specifically chose to base the abbreviation of lysergic acid diethylamide on the German title. How are you going to state that LSD is based on lysergic... when you're also acknowledging that it's based on lysergsäurediethylamid. And how are you going to state the same thing when I pointed out that Sasha Shulgin, an ingenius chemist, specified LAA as an abbreviation for lysergic acid amide?

The jerk part I agree with, his first comment was unnecessary.
However about being a know-it-all, yeah we're not in the 6th grade anymore you can't pull that card.
He provided a detailed explanation directly addressing the OP, that's all the necessary criteria for posting a response to his question.
I'm not defending the way he did it, just the fact he's right.
