what do you guys think? I'm in the mood for a solo trip, and both my roomates are gone today. I almost never get the house to myself and think its the perfect opportunity but I've got quite a cold. Do you think it will negatively affect the trip? Have you ever tripped with a bad cold?

Iam in the same situation today, gonna trip hopefully in a few hours on 1g of copelandia cyanaseans and a vial (1 dose unknown quantity) of 2cb with a sore throat. I heard from one report on erowid that 2cb can make you cough somewhat, but it's only one report so I'm not too worried. I'd say get some cough sweets or some ephedrine if you have any and go for it

Go for it. I could see it having negativity on the trip if it is really unconfortable, so take some medicine. Have fun!

I had a very hard trip after having my tonsils removed. On L. I was in a lot of pain (very much like a extremly bad sore throut) and on a heavy dose of hydrocodne (not fun).
It was a very hard trip. I watched "The Doors" movie. It was an extremly hard and very deep trip, but extremly rewarding.

I did this a few weeks ago. Other than my nose running quite often I felt fine. In fact I really didn't feel sick at all, was just wiping my nose on my sleeve alot.

Well I think if you do it or not depends on who you are, really. I've hippyflipped with a really bad cold and while I up on the E my cold dissapeared and it was wonderful but when I started comming down on the E and the mushrooms were still in effect I had to ward off some negative thoughts from knowing I had a cold again. Maybe it was just the E comedown, maybe I really was feeling depressed over my cold, but I dealt with it fine enough. If you really don't like being sick and it's a downer for you I'd reccomend against it, but it's your choice.

Just to update this, I did end up tripping and the cold didn't bother me too much. It actually supressed some coughing, making the less frequent coughs more productive (and unforunately more nasty but whatever) but I didn't feel very sick at all. In fact, I felt pretty fantastic! Did I mention LSD is amazing?

I've tripped on Philosophers Stones when I had a rather bad cold once and it did affect me quite badly. About 30 mins after ingestion I started to feel really hot and was sweating alot and I was starting to get into a bad-trip mindset because I thought it was only going to get worse as the trip progressed. I ended up puking about 50 mins after ingestion and I felt way better after it and ended up having a cool trip even though I still had a sore throat/alot of mucus/runny nose.
I think that what I felt was just the nausea from the shrooms mixed with the cold that I had and once I puked and the nausea passed I was fine.

I seem to be getting a cold, and was planning on doing lucy this weekend. *ponders*
I just know my head feels all stuffed up and my sinuses clogged - I could see lucy either making me ignore this discomfort, or - amplyfing the unpleasent sensations.
hrmm..
guess I'll just get lots of rest tonight and see if I feel any better tomorrow.
le'sigh.
