Is anyone else still chasing the high? * 1
    #23674890 - 09/24/16 07:00 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)

I don't do LSD or mushrooms frequently anymore. Maybe once or twice every couple months. A couple years ago I would trip once almost every week. That was my highlight of the week. I'd wait in anticipation for my "trip night" which consisted of smoking weed, listening to music, watching movies, and obviously doing LSD or mushrooms. At work it was something to look forward to and would seem to make my day go by faster. When I was tripping during this time period I would have what I thought were amazing ideas and revelations. The thought that frequently came up during my trips were, "I wish I could always think like this" because I felt so smart and felt as if I could solve any question or dilemma I had that came to me in my head at the time of tripping.

Nowadays pretty much every time I do a psychedelic (even weed sometimes) it puts me on one big guilt trip. My mind is kicking my ass hard with thoughts of things I know I should or feel like I should be doing in my life now. Or things that I wish were different in my life but I have no control over. When I'm sober again I don't feel "reset". I feel like I have a bigger burden on me than before the trip because now I have all the thoughts in my mind that was said to me during the trip. Now whenever I trip, most of the duration of the trip, I almost feel like I'm literally going insane with all thoughts racing one after another through my mind. By the time I'm done with the trip my mind feels like an over worked machine that's about to explode.

The weirdest part to all of this is... I still think about doing LSD or mushrooms and probably even will in the near future. But why? I guess I'm hoping that it would be magical like the first times again. Something along those lines. This to me is "chasing the dragon".

I can relate.  I think I over did it with booms and L and for awhile there, each time I tripped it was borderline boring.  I've actually had issues even tripping at all the last few times I've tried booms. 

With L my new rule is to space out each trip by at least 2-3 months.  That way I still get some of the magical and mysteriousness that I got the first few times I did L. 

And I'm also planning on trying out other psychedelics just to mix it up a bit.  I actually just ordered 2' of bridgesii cactus and I'm also considering taking ayahuasca in Peru next spring.

I wish I never tripped so frequently when I first discovered it. From the first time I did a psychedelic it didn't take long at all till I was doing it habitually. I do this with almost everything in my life, IDK why. I get into something really fast and do it frequently then in a short period of time I'm burnt out on it yet I still continue to do it because I'm hoping for something better. Something that is unrelated to drugs that I can think of would be fishing.

I ended up upping the dose. 2 tabs to me is like you said boring. 3 is alright, but anywhere from 4-6 is where I am at. May end up doing a mg dose to really blow my mind soon. Trips weekly/bi weekly all summer long got to me. 2 tabs with a month break didnt really blow my mind like I thought it would. been 2 weeks now, and I may do 4 or 5 in a couple weeks.

3 year break then dropping 100 ug blew my socks off.

My girlfriend and I ended our tripping hiatus and are now planning to trip 4-6 times a year. The magic won't disappear that way.

October 22nd is our next trip, 400 ug each. :awesomenod:

I understand that guilt trip feeling. If I start to stress, I usually just keep telling myself in 10 or so hours life will be normal again and to enjoy that ride while I'm still on it, and anxiety and stress gets lifted almost instantly.

My advice is try and make your trips more of an event. I don't know how sporadic or on a whim your trips are, but I plan mine out to the T. Dosage, date, setting, with whom, & other controllable variables are thought of weeks in advance. Idk, I wasn't always like that. I would trip whenever I felt the urge to drop, and it started to lose its fun and tolerance started to get in the way.

Now that I keep it on a regime, every trip has something new and awesome to share.

I hope the magic finds you again!  :sunny:

They are very sporadic now. Literally I'll decide on doing it a few hours beforehand. Not even the morning of. I'll just think, "well I'm feeling content finally. I wanna do some acid." Which basically means that I haven't had any negative thoughts or felt like shit in a good few hours straight that day so I'll just do it. I don't know how my life got to this point but I don't remember having any "good days" or days where I've felt genuinely happy throughout the entire day in at least a couple years.

Then because I don't have anything planned out once I start tripping I just start thinking of what I want to do but I can't make up my damn mind. I'll be sitting upright on my bed thinking, "fuck. i need to do something NOW. I'm going insane." and this will go on for 5-10 minutes and eventually I'll just pop in a movie so the thought of "what do i do now/what do i want to do now" goes away.

I like the idea of planning everything out because I think the fact that I sit there with all these thoughts racing through my mind is one of the main reasons why it turns into a downward spiral of feeling like shit, feeling guilty, and going "insane". I guess I get stuck inside my mind too deep. The setting is always my house and I'm always tripping by myself. I haven't tripped with someone else in about 2 years or so. Next time I trip I think I'll put my posters back up, take out the blacklight, pick out a handful of movies to choose from, and just get everything nice and set up so I have stuff to do. Thanks for that idea I like it.

To be honest i used to go through the same thing. But its not about spacing out trips its about depression and life having no real meaning. All people get in a rut almost all the time. Drugs don't fix that because they become the new normal. We always want something more
If we are lucky we can be distracted long enough in life with work, drugs, people to not care.
My best druggy freind has the same problem with everydrug and deals them just to find new ones to abuse until boredom sets in. His life will get better when he learns boredom is good and normal

Op, you say your mind is kicking your ass  telling you the things you know should be done. Why don't you just do those things to make yourself feel better so when you trip, you won't have those dark clouds hanging over your head.

That's one thing I feel people struggle with is the integration afterwards. You come to these revelations about how things should be but never do anything after becoming sober again, thus falling into the same rut.

:shrug:

Hey tump. Thanks for the reply. When you were at a happier time in your life did you enjoy your trips more?

For me, I discovered psychedelics at a "care-free" time of my life. I had just graduated high school, had a couple stoner friends who I could drink/do drugs with whenever for the most part, a few stoner kind of chick booty calls, and a crappy job that paid for my gas and weed money. During this time period I didn't feel the need or the want to integrate into "normal society".

Now I'm older. I have absolutely no social or sex life. Haven't in years. Not even a single friend or anyone to talk to besides my family members these days. There is nothing exciting or new in my everyday life. I go from one shit job to another. Currently unemployed but by no means broke. Only have a HS education. Now I realize if I ever want to make it in life I have to make an effort to try and fit into society. Or fake it I guess because even with a very drastic appearance change I still don't feel like I fit in with anybody.

I sound like a sad sack of shit. Sorry. I guess I'm just gonna have to get used to this. I'm probably not meant to be tripping during this state that's why I may be having these negative trips. I really don't know.

My story is just like yours but worse.

From years 1-2 with LSD I had trip night which was always heaven
From years 3-4 with LSD I still tripped but the magic was gone and it was more of a guilt trip like you said
From years 5-6 (currently) I can't really trip anymore because a trip consists of basically a 6 hour long panic attack where I come out mentally and/or physically hurt.

I suppose literally what it has come to is I need to get my shit together which in turn would make me feel content or hopefully happy with my life before I can have an enjoyable trip. Basically get my life to a point where things feel right.

Just read an amazing book called Psychedelic Healing, by Neal Goldsmith that helped me a lot. I learned the steps to take to ensure proper use. Your story is a very common one, psychedelics have a way of showing us inconvenient truths about our self. I have found that the magic can and will come back and get even better each time with correct planning,use and integration. Good luck

I do this too, in making each one a planned event, with even ritualistic proceedings for that day and even the day before sometimes.

Examples..exercise the day before and/or the morning of.  Eat healthy the day before the trip, fast the day of the trip, clean my apartment, phone off, movies/shows teed up that I might want to check out during the peak or during the comedown, cut off the weed smoke hours before the trip so that I get super high (love mixing psychs with weed), grocery shop the morning of for fresh fruits and ramen noodles.  And I light candles.  Lots and lots of candles. 

I fucking wish I could just trip anytime the mood strikes, but I learned the hard way that it loses it mystique after awhile.  Once I decided to spread out my trips, they started becoming magical again and that was a good feeling - prior to that I had actually worried that it just wasn't ever going to be the same again.

I don't know how people can trip so frequently, lost the respect for the substance, and themselves. They're suppose to teach the opposite :smile: one trip at 100ug takes a lot out of me, I wouldn't even consider doing it again anytime in the immediate future, sometimes I wish I could trip as often as others do, but who would want to ruin it for themselves? :lol:

Why?  Fire hazard?  I light them before I start tripping and they all rest safely on 2 separate leaning bookcases at opposite ends of the room.

I love lit candles with no lights on while tripping. Especially on the comedown. The way the light dances is awesome to watch and so calming.

I take dabs while peaking (aka work a butane torch) so I few candles never scare me lol. We have good containers for ours so it's never a hazard that needs to be worried about.

It was very similar for me. I let a good 25 years pass in which I tripped maybe 3 times and they were all great. Got back into psychedelics a couple years ago and grew shrooms. Now I do low-doses a couple times each month and a big trip maybe once a year. No more LSD for me - I have no way to get it and I don't want to take something that keeps me awake for 14 hours.

I cant sit around and trip... i have to be doing something... Last time i ate mushrooms, i was drunk, and decided that the drinking was not quite giving me the right buzz so i decided to eat some mushrooms just spontaneously rit there on the spot. Within a couple of minutes of eating them i actually had realised what i had done and i was in for one hell of a ride!!!

Straight away i was like, oh shit i need somebody to get me out of the house... IM GONA GO CRAZY IN HERE!!!! so my mate picked me up and proceded to have a great night... always moving.... A constant change of perspective keeps things rolling nicely for me...

Psychedelics aren't consistent enough in their effects to really "chase the dragon." I don't go into any of my psychedelic experiences looking for a single specific experience. I do them because it's always a beautiful, wonderful, amazing experience no matter what it's like. It's not really about looking for something or some kind of feeling.

Using less frequently is more responsible, and a better experience. You don't lose the magic that way.

...When I was tripping during this time period I would have what I thought were amazing ideas and revelations. The thought that frequently came up during my trips were, "I wish I could always think like this" because I felt so smart and felt as if I could solve any question or dilemma I had that came to me in my head at the time of tripping.

Nowadays pretty much every time I do a psychedelic (even weed sometimes) it puts me on one big guilt trip. My mind is kicking my ass hard with thoughts of things I know I should or feel like I should be doing in my life now. Or things that I wish were different in my life but I have no control over. When I'm sober again I don't feel "reset". I feel like I have a bigger burden on me than before the trip because now I have all the thoughts in my mind that was said to me during the trip.




Psychedelics usually bring to the surface what's going on deep inside. It's no wonder that when you felt more carefree in life you were having more magical trips and positive vibes. If you're feeling lighthearted and chilled that will be the overall rhythm of the trip. When there's heavier things at stake, they will come to light. It can actually be helpful.

I know how you feel on this because I have these kinda trips sometimes. But you gotta remember psychs are a powerful tool, if used that way. Maybe in your current trips where you feel guilt for not doing things differently, you're trying to send a message to yourself: change it up!

So I'm not sure the magic is missing from your tabs, but maybe from your thinking cap. Know what I'm sayin? You're not describing loss of magic as in "my visuals aren't strong bro"...but more like "my trips are telling me stuff I don't wanna hear". In your trips, the hardest thing you'll ever have to face, is yourself. That one fucker you can't lie to, but you can die tryin.

Whatever it is you feel you should be doing, and aren't...for BigFeelysake do it! Because when you're older, you won't need acid to tell you that you missed out.

ya, my first lsd and first shrooms trips were amazing and blissful, literally every trip after (14 or so) has been uncomfortable, disappointing, a waste of time, sometimes hellish, and of questionable value

maybe the problem is with me I dunno, but I sure am chasing those first glimpses, stuff like this makes me question the worth of psychedelics, and when I see myself falling into repeating common rhetoric I wonder how many others actually feel this disappointment deep down

doesn't help I never have many visuals either

Universal, It's good to hear from you man. Everything you said sounds spot on. This line especially seems to be what has happened, "I'm not sure the magic is missing from your tabs, but maybe your thinking cap". The past year and a half or so has been the lowest point of my life. I guess it had to come to this eventually though. By that I mean... The way I had been living & thinking before-not thinking about my future, always being stoned/high or "up" all the time, not being too concerned about anything in life really. It all has to come down eventually and reality sets in deep. Life, the longest rollercoaster ride ever.

True words man. It sure does flow.

Great to see ya too man. Im sorry to hear about your rough past year tho. At least youre on top of it ready to make your next year much better.

As you said about the roller coaster, theres the ups and downs. If its any positive vibe for ya, youre coming up on a rise now! Great things to come your way.  Its a great chance to be heroic and susprise yourself at the gangsta you really are. Anything that comes your way...be bold my friend. :psychsplit:

I trip at least once a week. I'm chasing something I guess. More trippiness from my trips. Deeper trips. And to remember what I did in my trips

Been tripping since the age of 14, but I only did it once at that age and then again at 19, then sporadically till now. I get scared/anxious before every trip. I also only trip a few to one time a year. The only time I tripped a lot, like every week was around mid 20's, I knew an acid dealer and he had a warehouse apt set up with an 18 piece drumset and amps etc, many a lost tape on those nights. I still "have the magic". Same with MDMA, started at 19yo, I am 51 now.

I never over indulge TOO much, lol. I don't have time to trip much these days, about to be an RN, I am compiling a stash that I will have until my 70's or more. I don't take huge amounts either, never have taken more than 3 hits at a time/night, but it was more potent in the 80's/90's it seems. I need to stock up on this burst of good L and MDMA. I do tend to roll about 1-4 times a month if I have a stock of M. I can save stuff for months and years now. I used to do it within hours or a week at the most if I bought it back in the day. set and setting are key to anything I do.

Hello. While being a registered nurse you still have time and the ability to trip, roll, smoke weed? I was under the impression that they drug tested. Thanks for the reply. Have a good day.

I don't have my license YET. I am taking a refresher course to qualify to take the state boards again, my time limit to take it ran out. I did get my LPN license a couple years ago but never used it and it lapsed. This course I am taking will reinstate my LPN and allow me to test for the RN again for 2 more years. The state boards are the most difficult thing I have ever done in my life! I have the degree, I just need the license. I have met OR nurses and they were on LSD at a party in new orleans, they told me they smoke and trip almost whenever they feel like it. I won't do that.

I am scared of smoking more than tripping, rolling etc...though. I am quitting everything for a year to really concentrate on learning the job when I begin working. I'll go from there on when and if I choose to inebriate with things other than alcohol (which I don't really do). I might drink once every week or 2. I would rather smoke, and I only smoke lightly. A 1/4 can last me a month or so. I'll be done with my course by mid Nov. or sooner. Halloween is my last big party/smoking/tripping/rolling night for a while.:nursemaryjane:

trying to replicate a trip will only lead to disappoint in my opinion. If you've been tripping in the same environment these past times where you've had bad trips, maybe try and change the scenery.

I love camping and tripping, it's a wonder and makes the occasion feel a bit more special too. But I think when you trip it's best to go with no expectations and to let the trip happen.

I just want it to be a good trip/good high like how it used to be, which is what I think everyone wants when they do any drug. I'm not trying to find an answer to my problems or look for specific visuals, etc. I don't know when I'll trip next. It may be for a while but I'm going to do something I haven't done and even at one point probably would've looked down on doing because of the whole "go with the flow" thing. I'm going to make a list of activities that I want to do during my trip. Whats been happening is... I'll start to trip, things are going okay for a little bit, then I'll get overwhelmed with my thoughts so I wind up getting stuck inside my mind the entire time.

I think this is a solid plan.  Have you ever considered watching a trippy movie to help keep you in the right headspace?  I know a lot of people say that it's a waste of a trip by watching movies but this is one of my favorite things to do when I'm tripping balls. 

You would need to choose which movie wisely though otherwise it'll be too difficult to follow.

A few of my favorites...

Mad Max: Fury Road
2001 Space Odyssey (not easy to follow but such a fun trip movie)
Fear and Loathing (some of it gets a little dark at times for a trip but I actually like a little of that while tripping)
Speed Racer The Movie
300
Sin City
Lord Of The Rings

I tend to watch at least one movie when I trip. I've heard it too but I don't know why anyone would think that watching a movie while tripping is a waste. You pick up on so many little details and other things going on that you usually don't notice or care to think any further about. I've watched some movies and thought, "this movie was made for tripping." or "whoever made this movie must trip." shit like that haha. Some movies I've watched while tripping that I really enjoyed would be Ferries Bueller's Day Off, SLC Punk, Fight Club, Glory Daze, and Analyze This. I also used to watch that 70's show a lot when I tripped. I got to season 5 but it started to get really stupid. :frown:

What is Sin City about? I remember seeing that at Blockbuster years ago.

The ones you listed above I'm not sure I would really appreciate that much (except for fight club) during tripping but to each his own. 

Sin City...
Crime thriller noir flick.  It's a good movie and SUPER VISUALLY STIMULATING and FUN to watch.  When I trip I need a movie that fits into either of those two categories or one that is just "trippy" like fear and loathing for example. 


Here's the trailer...

And sometimes movies I would hate normally I love when tripping.  Speed Racer might be one of the gayest movies ever but it's incredible during the trip.  Fun and the visuals/colors are amazing.

Here's a shit ton more options for you...
