Can you get used to acid ? 1

Hey guys,
I know people droping some acid every few weeks. Some of them are so crazy and take over 500ug. The crazy thing about this is, that they seem totally normal. They can have a great conversation with you and for normal people they don't seem to trip (that hard). I don't understand this, if i take just 200ug, I'm completly in my own world, carried away by the emotions that arise and not really able to talk to someone.
So my question here is, if you trip on a regular basis, do you get used to the effect. How can it be possible to handle a 500+ug dose so easily (I know the acid was a good one) or is it just genetics, that some people don't get overwhelmed this hard?

There are a lot of factors. Level of comfort, tolerance, frequency of use, setting, individual physiology, ect. With enough time I think anyone can get acclimated to the experience in their own way. We adapt, that's what humans do. As far as seeming normal, a LOT of people barely seem high at all when it comes to acid. That's just part of the deal.

^ agreed.
Also op, take note that most people don't know how much they're doing, or pretending to take more for some ego games.
Or they might take it so regularly that tolerance is in play all the time which leaves them to just waste their LSD , which IMO is worse.

Tolerance is one of the biggest factors of regular dosing. Even a week apart isnt long enough when dosing on the reg. It will still have tolerance build up but not as much as every other day. I think people can get used to the effects for sure tho. I notice that you can almost know what to expect when you dose low. Higher dose trips may be easier to manage after having multiple experiences but still can become overwhelming even for the most experienced users. Its not like you can totally control your trip, its still going to grab you by the balls if it wants to.

500ug with a tolerance from eating doses weekly feels almost the same as 100ug without a tolerance, except it's got an immense body load from the sheer amount of LSD you have to eat to bypass your tolerance,
You very much can get used to LSD, and after a long period of being used to LSD myself, I'm trying to stick to taking it less than 12 times a year so I don't lose the magic of the experience.

I agree, the body high is strong but the visuals/headspace is minimal. I used to trip weekly and after a couple months eating a 5 strip would barely get me going. 12 times a year is a good amount, tho I had a little honeymoon phase with LSD a couple months ago and was taking it weekly after a 9 year break haha. Tho now I feel once a month maybe twice is sufficient for me.

Totally!...I totally agree that when a person is dosing on a weekly basis, or dosing massively more than once a month, a week apart is not enough time for tolerance to drop back to baseline and tolerance will accumulate or sensitivity will drop over time...Getting used to the effects of a drug doesn't negate certain aspects a drugs affect, such as the breaking down of the executive functions of one's cognition, which any proper dose of a psychedelic will completely dissolve.
For those that dose high and somewhat frequently (more than once a month) for a stretch for time (months or years) I really do feel that their tolerance is going to accumulate over time and they'll become far FAR less sensitive to the full potential of what these psychedelics have to offer. I think this is a huge part of why some people will eat 1/2mg or more of L and will still be very much "here" and functional.
There's a few folks here on the boards that often post/talk about how they trip almost on a weekly basis and/or take relatively massive doses once or twice a month (500mcg to 1mg+ of L, or 14 to 28 grams of mushrooms, and/or an assortment of other psychedelics in combo and in large doses)...and the way they make it sound is like it's just any other night of casual tripping. I'm not doubting that they're getting pretty damn high, but no where near what the dosages their taking would do if they didn't flood their brain with massive doses or trip so often in general....or if they just took a break for several months then gobbled down one of the big doses they speak about taking like it's cakewalk .
With that said...Overtime, with experience, yes I do feel that people can get used to and familiar with the space & flow of the experience and hold their shit together and be more lucid/functional through out the trip. This has definitely happened to me over the years. But again, getting used to the effects of a drug doesn't negate certain aspects a drugs affect, such as the breaking down of the executive functions of one's cognition.
Getting used to and navigating the experience better over time is totally not the same as bombarding your noggin' with frequent massive doses so much so that the experience has become dulled down to the point that one can still "function" well on high doses.
High doses will absolutely dissolve the executive functions of one's cognition....IMO, if one is remaining pretty well functional on what most consider large doses (7g+ or 500mcg+), they're either hard headed or have become dulled down to the experience.
I personally know a few people that have taken large doses several times over the stretch of a summer/a few months or just over time in general, and they were able to gobble down absurd amounts of doses (one dude even licking up raw crystal like it was nothing) and still be more coherent and functional than I was off of just two tabs (around 200mcg to 250mcg)...One dude was even saying the stuff didn't even do a whole lot for him anymore, and he took a break from all psychedelics for a few months, after that it did the trick.

Tolerance.
People rapidly develop extreme tolerance to psychedelics if they use regularly. The fact that an entire week is required to lower tolerance after a single use should show how strong is in psychedelics. I don't know of any other category drug that requires a week of abstinence for baseline effects after use.
You also lose the magic if you dose too often. That means that no matter how high you dose, you're simply not getting many of the effects that you would have gotten at a lower dose if you'd abstained for a while. There are effects that you are just not getting if you're dosing too often.

Okay thanks guys

I never had this amount of acid. How does the body load feels like ? Like energetic amphetamine like or mdma like ? Or more a stoned feeling ?

Do you mean, that 1 week is a short time get to the baseline ? Because if you compare it to mdma, for me 1 week is a short time to fully recover to baseline.

Overtime you learn what to expect from a trip and the kind of mindset you need to stay in a stable state.
With experience comes improved awareness of self during a trip that makes it easier to handle.
So yes, while there is a physical tolerance I personally think the mental tolerance is the most important factor in handling an LSD trip.

It's more than tolerance. I think when you trip enough you start to build new nueral pathways to retain some your functions and route around the impaired parts. My visuals never seem to be as good no matter how long of a break I take, and nothing will ever be like that first trip. My mind just isn't fooled anymore.
Another aspect, in regards to talking to people as you said, is a person's social ability. Some people have robust brain networks for social communication and are social masters. Others, such as those with Asperger's Syndrome, can barely communicate even under normal circumstances. This will reflect while tripping as each group is brought down a notch to normal and nonfunctional respectively.

Short Answer: Yes, for 2 reasons.
1) Tolerance is achieved at a physio-chemical level in the body. and 2) One may (or may not) become accustomed to the "ride" and the side effects and the overall nature of the drug as well as their own nature In time - at the various dosage levels.
Still, man is a notoriously inconsistent creature (of habit ) , the psyche and the environment is in a state of constant flux and so the psychedelic and its trip reflects this at times making it something you never get used to in the sense of say - putting on a sock.

Its taken months for me to get used to acid after my first couple times i tried it. That was taking lsd once every week, mabey once every two weeks for 5-6 months, and now 2-3 hits just feels dull to me, thats after a month+ break. I assume if I took 3-6 month long break, it would be a little different but it took a long time to get used to it.

dropping acid every two weeks will increase tolerance for sure, so a 500 micro dose is more like a 250 micro dose.
Also, the tabs could be a lot less potent than advertized. Lots of overhyping with acid hits on the street market.
But to answer the question, yes u can get used it.
I am comfortable at 100 micros.
This year, i bumped it up to 200 micros, and it was basically chaos. It kinda made sense, but mostly it was chaotic and i wished i had taken my comfy 100 micros dose. But people can get used to 200 micros but it takes experience to get to that level where it feels "normal".
Same goes for shrooms. Or any drug for that matter.
Its called being "functional" on a drug, where mundane things are easy to do while high. Comes with repeated use and experience.

The gods say it's unhealthy for your physical body if you try n crossover to much, so they increase your tolerance to try and compensate.
Sounds good anyway.

Yes you can get use to acid. Any psychedelic has a tolerance that last a week or so after your last dose. As a young fool I tripped everyday for a week on blue dragon blotter and increased the dose each day, let me tell you that after that experience I laid off the acid for a few months. So,tolerance does build up. Now as an older and wiser tripper I limit tripping to a few times a year, both on acid and shrooms. I did 6 grams dried mix of shrooms and truffles and tripped my balls off!! Wife and I had some mind blowing sex, viagra is a weak second compared to shrooms.

Try having sex on a level 4 or level 5 sheoom trip where when you close your eyes, the physical body disappears and there's nothing but consciousness and sensation. OMG. The spark and explosions during orgasm are literally out of this world. My wife and I fell in love with it. We're dying in anticipation of my next grow to be complete.
We've had sex on every drug we've done. MDMA and methamphetamine based add/adhd meds are best for longevity, but nothing beats shrooms for orgasmic quality, and I mean nothing.
