Why trip when you don't have to? 1

Hello everyone, long time no post!
It's been a long time since my last trip. Well, a long time for me haha. It's been since mid May. I used to trip about every week, then I had a bad experience and ended up in the hospital. Haven't tripped since. However, now I smoke roughly every night and it kind of gives me a slight trippy feeling. Gives me the headspace I'm looking for.
I have an itching desire to trip though. Like, I think about tripping relatively frequently. Not as much as I used to, but still often. However, I have no reason to trip. Like, why trip without purpose? That'd put me on the same level as trash festival goers 
Do you guys trip without any intention of doing anything with the experience? I can't imagine just dropping for shits and giggles anymore. My mind has probably gone through irreparable damage from the massive dose trips I went through earlier this year and last year. But, I feel like I'm almost back to being completely normal at the same time.
Note: I am extracting 1kg of ACRB right now just for the hell of it because I'm sick of having this bark haha.
I'd love to come by more, but I've lost respect for casual tripping in these past few months and that seems to be a big chunk of what goes on in here now :/ Not to sound like a pretentious idiot. Because I know what it's like to want to keep tripping for fuck's sake.
Sorry for the randomness.

Hospital? How does one end up in the hospital from tripping? If it's bad trip take a benzo. Spirtual/recreational it doesn't matter since you were unable to handle it, maybe it's not for you. I never ended up in hospital from casual tripping and the "festival trash" seem to be able to handle it, just give them a chill out zone. Maybe the the problem is you are elevating this simply drug experience to be more than it is. Maybe there is no need for a purpose. Every time someone is admitted to a hospital for a bad trip they become part of a statistic, emergency room admissions due to LSD, and that number should really be zero. It's not just about you, it's about trying to repair the bad rep these drugs have. Going to the hospital does not help that bad rep one bit.

Yeah, I wasn't the one who decided to go to the hospital. It was the people with me who were concerned for my unresponsive, yet erratic well-being. I took an irresponsible dose of many things at once and that's just what it is. I, and those I hang out with, don't take benzos so that wouldn't have helped either.

Apex, youre back!
good to see ya 
Its been a long time man.
I realised this awhile ago, im a tripper for life it seems. When i take breaks, i just wanna grow more shrooms or extract some morning glories, to take that trip again, to go back to that special state of mind called tripping.
I highly recommend take it slow with infrequent tripping. Infrequent tripping is pretty great, as the magic is strong everytime and you dont get burned out too early form too much usage.
im glad your getting back into it, just make sure you dont do any heroic combos again. GODS SAKE, PLEASE DONT.

Logical, my good buddy. Missed you 
Yeah I'm not ready for tripping again, yet. Not sure my girl, who was there when I fucked up, is ready for me to trip either haha.
I will always have a passion for the state of mind psychedelics can produce. So, maybe I'm a lifer! We'll see!

Glad u didnt give up psychs for good.
yeah, u could be a lifer. I think some people arre just reaally into the experience, while others forget about it, like fad or something.
Keep being sober, then when it feels right, ease into it. With GF permission, of course. You dont wanna scare your important people again

I know we haven't talked much but I seriously was thinking about you yesterday. What's your legal situation looking like?

If I don't have a purpose for tripping, I either don't trip or invent a purpose. It's not hard for me to make up some reason about some aspect of my life I would like to change, and I always think maybe tripping will help me.

My legal situation is about to be free and clear. I actually didn't get in any trouble when the cops raided. I don't know how, I must be lucky as shit or it's a technicality of some sort. I had like five different psyches in my apartment haha.
I'm living on a super stressful time right now though. Financially getting raped every day. Until I'm stress free, no tripping for me :p

Really depends on the psychedelic.
Acid trips are always really, really chill for me. I can drop a tab and just casually play video games all day or go on a bicycle ride.

Glad to see you back apex!
I know exactly what you mean too, I have never really understood recreational psych use. Always seemed blasphemous to me. I will admit I have taken them not just to "have fun" but to connect with people and things and try to learn new lessons I might not have otherwise. Sometimes it is more important than others but I pretty much always feel I got something back for the most part.
Cannabis can be very trippy too, a lot of people don't realize becouse of how it is used by many. A tolerance break followed by a solid edible dose can be full on psychedelic though. After using a lot of psychs I noticed the trippiness of cannabis had gone up for me too, or maybe I just noticed it more or a bit of both.
Kratom really enhances this aspect of weed for me too, and can be a bit trippy on its own in the right dose with the right alkaloids.
I am sure you don't have fond memories of harmalas but they can synergize pretty nicely with weed too. I wish I could take all 3 but that could be sketch.
Sorry to here you are "getting raped" financially you make it sound funny but that sucks as does stressing on stuff so I hope that works out.
Glad to hear you didn't get in any legal trouble by some miracle!

Hi, yes I read your report of what happened earlier this year. That was some scary trip. Good to hear you're ok now, healthwise and legally.
Why trip when you don't have to? I know, I only trip when the time is really right. So that means sometimes weeks or even months go by, and I feel fine.
But now the shrooms are growing, and the first harvests are here, so there will be some fun very soon! Plus, I think I really like that bag of MXE I just bought. So no, never without a good reason... but when it's time it's time 
Love, Hanz.

What sucks the most is that I have little flashbacks to that trip and I'm worried that even a light trip could send me back to hell. But maybe it'll give me some relief when is all said amd done. Blah, I wish that trip never happened.

Maybe postpone the psychs for a while then.
But try MXE, it's the healer man. Comfort, just plain comfort and no angst at all. Even on the higher levels.

The first time I blacked out on psychs was a heavy L dose where I had a crazy salvia flashback then blacked out after coming up fully 
Anyways a few weeks later I candy flipped with some friends and at one point had a flashback of part of when I was blacked out, I pretty much was stuck in a time loop I guess where the same 5-10 seconds where just looping... It was scary even just to remember a snippet of it. It made me feel better in a way though to get an idea of what happened and know that I could still have a great experience after.
Just start low next time, if anything that should be the one lesson to take from overdoing it in any way. I definitely learned my lesson though I blacked out two other times do to different reasons 
I wish I had encouraged you to take just the oral dmt I always feel weird telling people what to do though. I like to think things happen for a reason and one way to look at these situations is a testament of how strong our minds can be. We can get shot out way out into the cosmos and completely lose our sense of self just to put the pieces back together and return to being "normal" eventually.

I'm not very experienced with dissociative drugs like MXE so I'm not sure I want to get into that. Maybe after I can handle the classics again.
And yeah, I'm never doing oral DMT again haha. My girl would probably kill me herself if she found out. That and smoking DMT is enough of a mind fuck as I'll ever need. That is something I've learned the hard way.

I think its the urge just to trip, when you have the stuff to do it.
I had 15 15G bags of truffles twice now, and blew through it so fast. Within a month or two it was gone, with sharing with my sister once or twice, but still it was the fact i had it, and i could do it.
I did the same thing when i had cubes, two oz was gone in 2 months.
Its been a month since my last trip, and i wish i wouldnt of wasted it for no reason, theres been about once a week where i had a day that would be great to trip, but didnt have the cubes/truffles.
1p-lsd is the next on my list, i swore to never do rcs, but it looks promissing as i have never done lsd.

I think it totally depends on your environment and state of mind. I always seem to have better LSD trips when I'm in a good place in my life, but can get a little edgy when in an unfamiliar setting. Shrooms seem to be good all around – I've tripped out playing pool in a bar full of people I didn't know and had a great time.
