Howdy fellas, the name is James. So I've been a shroom-head debate-ably a year now, but my first dose was 4-22 of last year. Since then I have to have done shrooms about 20 times, but in the off season I could not find them, so I finally decided to open up to the other half of the easy-to-find psychedelics around where I live; Acid. The purity of LSD in this has always been unknown, but after my experience I don't really care to know. My first time trying it was around the beginning of December. Acid will be what gives me the story I wish to tell you guys. Since this is my first thread, I feel like it would be a great subject to just kind of introduce to you guys to my psychedelic state of mind. If you wanna read where this trip really took off, scroll to 3:40 AM.
My first drop of Acid was with myself and one other friend, Andre, a very great and trusted friend of mine. We dropped and I finished to clean my room as he went home as we were meeting at his house for the trip. The night was a great sequel to my many previous shroom trips as I now finally got to see how they differed and I was fascinated. 5 minutes after I arrived at Andres I received an invitation from another friend of mine, Brandon, to come to his party. I showed up and it seemed dead, so I broke out my rave gloves with lights on the fingertips, I'm sure many of you know what I'm talking about but it felt as if the acid drove my energy to light the party up, like it was some kind of tool. I gave them standup comedy, light shows, music, and I had begun to fall in love with Acid. After an hour of this, I returned to Andres house as he was tripping pretty much just as hard as me now. This is where I just kind of rode the night out and relaxed with it, not much else to talk about, but I was now invited by Andre and his girlfriend Josie to do acid again with the two of them in a week, along with Aidan and Steven, two first time users. This experience is where I learned that I had not even dented the surface of what tripping even is, which by now I've learned that it's no longer possible to describe it with just words. That whole week, Andre and Josie instructed me that I had now needed to see two tabs, not just one. Wondering how different it could really be, I immediately agreed to the decision, and bought the required acid and showed up for the night. The time had come and everyone who wasn't doing the acid had left and it was now just the 5 of us, Andre, Josie, Steven, and Aidan. Andre had been warning me all night that it will be something quite out of explanation, and that it would begin at the point where I would go off somewhere and just start thinking, and that I might 'take something out of this'. Now after doing shrooms so many times, I knew that thinking was completely inevitable while tripping, so I was still open for it. As we all dropped, I only did 1 of the tabs, saving the second one for once I had comfortably felt out the trip. I know many people just drop the 2 at the same time but I promise you, this method gave me the experience. As we were coming up from the first tab, everything was casual. I happened to find my headphones in Andres room, with them having been lost for a month by then. I just felt like I had been gifted by the energy, as insane is that sounds. Finding my headphones had a large echo on the rest of the night, so just bare with that rather awkward mention. The next hour was great, similar tripping to the first time. I had now decided that it was time to drop the 2nd tab. By now, Aidan had fallen in love with the feeling and began to try to purchase my 2nd tab, with lots of effort. I was cold though, the 2nd tab was mine, and I had eventually dropped it. The trip remained casual and the night continued until I began to trip a tad harder, and then felt something strange. The conversations we were having and what was going on in the room had eventually began to feel as if we were trapped in a cycle. It happened a little bit after we had smoked a few joints. I realized this anomaly when Aidan mentioned it himself, after realizing it felt like he had said the same things a few times now, he said, "Wait guys, we're trapped in a cycle." and just as he said that, a few of us said, "Oh wait.." or something like that, like the cycle had just shot through all of us, and then seconds after that, Aidan said "Wait, there are my headphones!" and then jumped across the room and picked his headphones up off the ground, having found them. Obviously, coming up on the second hit, my brain made the connection to finding my own headphones previously in the night. Just as all of this went down the trip kind of hit me like a wave, and it had me feeling strange, very convinced that some sort of dimensional malfunction had taken place, and us realizing the cycle kind of broke something and Aidan had impossibly had knowledge to where his headphones were to kind of toss us back into the cycle. I was just kind of standing there in the room as they all returned to talking and tripping, with my heart beating now a little bit. I decided to leave the room and go into Andres room to kind of calm down and feel this out. Steven had walked into the room at some point, I can't really remember how long I was, my time perception at that point was very off, but he asked me what I was doing and I told him something like "I'm going through some other shit right now man" and he accepted it and walked out, but I remember him walking back in again, and asking something similar. I could tell that we were still trapped in a cycle of some sort. I decided to grab my car keys and go out to my car to blend the trip with the music that I listen to, which is where I must go into detail about myself for a second just so this will make a little bit more sense. I am 100% music driven, it is always flowing through me and for me to write music and listen to it is complete nature. WIth this, hearing my favorite types of uplifting and calming music seemed to be the best idea for me at this moment. I told them i was going to my car to chill out for a little bit, just as I was walking out of the door, Steven said to me "it's scary out there, be careful" and as I was walking from the front door to my car, my mind raced on about the last words I heard, what Steven said, and it had run to convince me that I was just hearing a new branch of the cycle, this one being the one that one of us would hear if we were to go outside and try to figure the cycle out. This is only my best efforts to describe the indescribable. When I got into my car, I turned on my #1 go-to song to cling back to who I am and feel relief. The song's name is 'Soul Survivor' by Angels & Airwaves, which I suggest a good listening to from anyone who loves spiritual music. I've heard this song more times than I even know. Throughout the song I had thought and thought real hard about what could have been going on with this whole cycle debacle, and the song, being as uplifting as it is, drove me to a positive train of thought to where just as the song slams down, at the duration of 2:44, I felt a burst of energy. The build up to this part of the song adds to all the energy of it though, which starts at 2:09 in the song. The burst of energy was another wave of the trip hitting me, highly stringing the cycle feeling, but with the positive outburst of the song taking place, it had drove me to think about the night very hard and what the last thing that was going to happen to this group of people tonight and I had finally realized that it was me going home. I had indeed been planning to go home at the end of the trip all night and running across this thought just as the song exploded like that had me certain of the moment. I got out of the car and walked up to the house feeling very heroic, for the very reason that I thought everyone had been feeling what I was, and that I was going to once and for all break this cycle. I opened the door just as Josie happened to say the word "Stay" which I knew she was talking to Andre and I had just walked in to hear the on word, but I felt as if that were not Josie, but the trip itself speaking to me, trying to trap me in the cycle. I ignored it, walked into the room and announced to everyone "I've figured it out guys, I have the answer. I know what it is, I have to go home." none of them had a single clue what I was talking about. I locked eye contact with Andre as he said "you're going home?" so I repeated "I'm going home!" he asked again, and I repeated one more time and then realized I felt locked in with Andre and abruptly turned around and walked into his room to grab my stuff to snap loose from this. I got my things together, and as I went to walk out Andre walked into his room to find me there asking me if i was alright to drive home. I again felt like this was another obstacle from the cycle trying to tell me to stay. I did think whether it was a good idea or not to drive home, thing is I only lived 2 streets over. The drive home went fine, if anything, the mood was positive as I thought I was escaping all of this. If anything I was more tended to the road. As I was walking up to my house I was wondering about what I should do in my room as all of this was happening. I also wondered whether to go to sleep or not, but then remembered that would require melatonin because Acid had destroyed my ability to fall asleep, but the melatonin was in my sisters room and would require me speaking with her, which I knew I was very unable to do in the moment, so I knew I couldn't do that. I got into my room and decided to watch an episode from a YouTube gaming channel that I enjoy as I sat in the recliner in the middle of my room and just feel this out. I had selected a horror video game as a result of bad decision and sat there as lots of the commentary of the video consisted of sentences like "this is scary" or like "what is going on" and these were what happened to keep me going with this. Obviously these guys are talking about the game and this is just a video but with my brain so deep in the trip, all I would be able to make sense of was the current word or sentence at most and relate it to what was currently happening and using my brains memory to link it to a previous event in the night, short term memory anomalies at best, but I didn't know this at the time and still felt like I was cycling, but now a lot faster. Just as a jumpscare took place in the game, the commentators screamed making me feel panicked about the trip so I decided this had to stop and got up and turned off the video and instead turned on a skit of Dane Cook's comedy, something I enjoy listening to. I turned on his famous VIcious Circle skit and then sat back in the chair. As the skit started up I realized my cat was in the room, and that he was messing with my ability to relax and calm down, so I got up and said to him, "you gotta go" and Picked him up, carried him to the door and left him in the hallway, the whole time this was happening it still felt like the cycle was driving me to do things other than rest in my chair. Looking back, I really wish I would have made more effort to convince myself or just realize that there was no cycle taking place and I was just much more vivid and aware of everything. I feel like the marijuana really messed with the train of thought, and that tripping as hard as I was mixed badly with the high, kind of turning the mood of the trip south. I got back into my chair for good this time, and began to listen to the comedy, thinking what could possibly go wrong from a comedy skit. Well, I'm not going to list all of the links my brain made to it, but I promise, pretty much most of what he said found its way into my cycles. If you were to come back to me with a quote from this skit there's a large chance I'll be able to tell you what it meant to me in these moments. My thoughts continued to echo to the point where it was driving me crazy. I couldn't even mentally escape these patterns, it just seemed like my brain was spinning through every subject it could to keep thinking, causing me to realize the relations to my family, the friends in my life, who I was, flaws I was living with, everyday life traits, things you don't normally think about. I thought about what Andre told me earlier, and now understood what he meant in saying I might take something out of this. But I also remembered that I've been told before that acid can drive you legally insane. I felt like going to sleep, but remembered I couldn't get the melatonin I needed, I felt like I could try and fall asleep with out it, but then remembered another thing somebody told me before about not wanting to sleep on acid because of what happens with your dreams, and with what was currently happening I couldn't bare to imagine what would happen then, so I continued to feel trapped in the cycle until I was basically taken out of my own perspective. I was very timeless. The thoughts just kind of spun so fast that it eventually seemed like even the cycles had began to cycle and this all sped up to the level where I had just melted into my own, lost individuality. I was kind of looking up at my ceiling in this numbness, in a way the visuals of this intense of the trip kind of forced my ceiling into looking like some huge red tunnel with light echoing up the sides up and down to the top and back. I stared into this for I don't know how long but it eventually just evolved into feeling completely universal. What I could see and feel at this point is where I can't describe it anymore. You basically watch all encompassing functionality in ways that you cannot imagine, describe or understand, but only see. My best effort to describe my vision of this state will be this. Imagine staring into a the windows of a moving train of a very bright light that was on the other side of the track, except very extra dimensional. The timelessness of this was unreal, I couldn't even tell how long I had been there, whether it was an hour, or just one second. Somewhere in the crazy cycle before all of this, I think just before I turned on the Dane Cook, I had also put my phone on it's charging dock speaker and shuffled my playlist of songs from the ambient music artist "Lights & Motion", and at some point I kind of snapped out of this, realized that Dane Cook was no longer playing, but the Lights & Motion playlist was on repeat, so I could still hear it. I was still tripping very hard, but I felt the cycles moving much slower, and I was not nearly as locked into even paying attention to them, or even caring. I felt very relaxed, and finally had the thought operating my head that what I was feeling was most likely just the trip, and that I had not gone insane, which I failed to mention but through all of this, I really had considered myself an insane person. But now I felt fine, I couldn't tell if I had fallen asleep, or simply regained my comprehension of reality, but this was the turning point. If you go listen to some Lights & Motion you'll realize it's very positively driven. Each song was an adventure, I think I listened to like 13 of them until I had completely returned to sanity. The last song I heard before I was able to get up from my chair was 'Reanimation' which is an oddly coincidental song title. I got up and felt myself piecing back together from this trip, slowly coming back to reality. Around this time, the sky started to change from black to dark blue, and I had then received a message from Andre asking me 'u good?' I messaged him back 'yeah, but holy shit', I then went on to text Josie, and I realized she was kind of feeling odd too, but I can tell that they hadn't gone through what I just did. I eventually got up and walked around my house to pet my dogs, appreciate the scenery outside, and through all of this I had sighed of relief many times. I finally felt as if I could go to sleep. Now with the knowledge in my head of what the acid trip was, what it shows you, exactly how indescribable it is. The next day was just a huge thinking process for me, minor afterglowing from the acid but nothing huge, I went to work and just kind of thought all day, and then went to see my girlfriend after to tell her about what happened. All I can say left about this trip is that it's no shit that most people don't know about it, because the words we've come to use as people are insufficient tools to describe such an experience. One very certain thought that everyone gets in this state is that you feel the education you receive when you die. I later learned that one of the tabs we had that night had been dripped multiple times, but it was unclear how many. That probably describes why this happened to me on only 2 tabs. This Acid experience is also not my only trip like this, I also eventually found myself tripping this hard yet again, but on Shrooms. That story is for another day, my hands are tired and if you even read all of this, thank you, your eyes must be very tired, hah. But I figured there's no better community of people than this on to spill this entire experience in full detail to. When I post the Shroom trip I'll edit the link into here. -------------------- We see, everythings underneath, floating so gracefully, look around and see that everything feels so unique, We find, everything falls on time, almost like a beautiful rhyme, and with one rewind we'll bring the line so far behind, It's there, to grasp for your own control, make the world turn to gold, stay in touch with your dreams till you grow old and it all unfolds, So you, have been great to all that's been so true, always stopped to take a look at the view, and you always remember that all it took were the dreams that came in few.

Quote: Have you ever driven on acid? It's quite an exploration, and it's not that hard to stay centered in the lane. If I was swerving from the point I left his driveway, I'd have typed something different than what I did. But I lived 1000 feet max from his house, so I wasn't too worried about it. It was also after 2 am. Either way I made this post more about the meltdown I had, to maybe see if anyone can relate or understand what I saw. -------------------- We see, everythings underneath, floating so gracefully, look around and see that everything feels so unique, We find, everything falls on time, almost like a beautiful rhyme, and with one rewind we'll bring the line so far behind, It's there, to grasp for your own control, make the world turn to gold, stay in touch with your dreams till you grow old and it all unfolds, So you, have been great to all that's been so true, always stopped to take a look at the view, and you always remember that all it took were the dreams that came in few.
