Nervous please help 1

Just got some acid and it's been a really long time, I do mushrooms all the time tho. I'm nervous and that's the first step towards a bad trip any suggestions how to prepare and what to do if it starts going south. Also I remember my friends use to put their tabs in aluminum foil and put them in the freezer, mine are in a baggie do I need to do that or will they be ok in a drawer or cabinet? Should I start with half a tab to dip my toes and check potency or just dive in any and all help greatly appreciated!

I’ve been taking acid and mushrooms for a bit more than 30 years now, and I still get nervous before I trip. I think that’s pretty normal. The fact is, once I’m into the experience, I again realize how much I love it and wonder why I get nervous in the first place.

Store the tabs in foil, in baggie, in a small jar with a silica packet, in the fridge. Allow to warm to room temp before opening to avoid condensation. Will keep fresh for many years like this.

That's how I do it. I've even considered putting oxygen absorber in the jar too.

Acid is definitely a entirely different trip than mushrooms.
For me it is far easier to handle though. Less confusing even more blissful, and all together smoother for me.
It’s a long trip though, so be prepared for a good long ride.

If you get nervous, I recommend learning some self-calming techniques such as breathing exercises or positive self-talk. Im usually a little nervous before a big psychedelic trip. Its pretty common to be honest.
If your tabs are said to be strong, I would recommend just doing half a hit. Sometimes the hype is real and going with a half a hit of a strong tab can be a good decision.
Storing your tabs in your closet or drawer in a baggie is total fine. A dry, cool place is best. Freezer isnt necessary.

Can i take the second half a couple hours later or will I already have a tolerance since it hit my brain? Also leave under my tongue or just swallow them?

U could but tolerance does affect it. It will likely just make the trip slightly stronger and make the trip last a little longer in duration. Id only recommend it if u had a big supply on hand.

I like under the tongue. Usually swallow all the spit and paper when i feel it kicking in.

I like to drink a beer or two a couple hours before a trip to ease the nerves. Its enough to take the edge off and make the come up smooth sailing, but not enough alcohol to dull the experience. You can't even tell you drank at all after about an hour in.
Also, get a Qtest to test the dosage, that'll also help with the nerves knowing what the dosage is if you can spare a half hit to test.

Northerner is fussing too much about storage - I would nix the fridge which is a public vessel, and condensation is a real problem that does not warrant the extra steps. A locked drawer suffices even at an average 100 degrees farenheit. I have decades old tabs without degeneration at room temp in paper envelope in a drawer, no problem at all.
OP worries that he is fussing too much or too little which is a second order of fussing in which you become neurotic about being neurotic.
Fussing is just a neurotic thing we fall into to remind ourselves to finish one thing before starting the next - but we have to get past that silliness. we are conglomerates of neurotic habits, not all bad, but when tripping we have to relax to look at them, and psychedelics enhance our ability to see them.
Enjoy and see as much as possible and just be aware of it - connect with the moment (use your breathing if disconnecting) do not react or trip out creating neurotic chains of disabling confusion. And if you do trip out, relax and allow the recovery, it is beautiful.

it's true. it doesn't need to be fridge cold. but it shouldn't be warm either. lsd is known to degrade from 25° onwards. i wouldn't want to store it at 23° but anything from 20° downward is perfectly fine.
what can be a problem is water condensation, yes. also, multiple cycles of warming up, cooling down, warming up, cooling down, .. etc. can be harmful. a friend stored couple of sugar cubes in the freezer and after taking them out, they've degraded by more than 50%, probably also due to water leaking into the tin foil. i would advise against freezing in general.
so yea try to keep it at a rather cool place with no light and humidity if possible. pack it in several layers of baggies and the multi baggy into another container that's how i do it at least

Ground yourself first. Get rid of your anxiety You want to have a good trip. Get excited about the possibilities I try to really be grounded and aware of my own thoughts and emotions before I trip My experience is definitely more with shrooms But I think intentions guide your trip

I've let enough acid spoil by having it at room temps to know not to do that, in drawers and books, etc. Maybe room temps are warmer here where I am than other people commenting. It's pretty well known to chill your acid if you want to keep it long term too. This isn't old rumour or new science.

It gets over 80 in my house in the hottest months of the summer. Ive been considering vac sealed in the fridge for that time period.
