Do you suck at taking psychedelics?

I think I do. All my friends are pumped about eating acid at festivals and all I can think about are things like
a.) will I ever sleep after I eat acid then try to sleep in a tent? b.) Will my brain chemistry be fucked for the next day? Will I be able to have fun at all? c.) Should I eat acid more than once? d.) Should I smoke weed too? I get tired but nobody else does...
I think these things and everyone else just gets fucked up. Does anyone have a clue what I'm talking about or am I just weird?

I totally know where you're coming from. The way around it is this: The next time a psychedelic drug is in front of you, eat a dose, then go on with life as if nothing happened. Put it on some food, eat the food, and forget about it. Basically, just don't focus on being fucked up, let it just work its magic. Let go and float downstream. Good vibes to you, man.

I can sort of relate. I'm pretty uptight about set and setting. I always make sure I am with people I care about and that nothing unexpected is going to happen.

You just have to be in the right environment. If your at your place...and you get tired...no big deal you can sleep. If your fucked in the head. Then you won't be around as many people and ect. Just need to be at the right place without many people or possibility of negative things happening.

But I want to! I just hate it when it's like 8am and all my friends are asleep and I'm sitting there in my tent, awake as can be and feeling bad. Then they all wake up and are really refreshed and I'm like "Uhh...shoot me?" How do you fuckers sleep on acid.
I guess I have a follow-up question. Generally they smoke a ton during the day and after (while?) on acid. Think that will help me sleep?

How could anyone sleep on acid? It fucking amps me up. As for D) - you can't have acid without lots and lots of weed. I chain smoke joints when I'm tripping, and they taste damned good.

That's probably it then. I tend to avoid weed while on psychedelics and they don't. It's clearly not working for me so I'm going to change things.

the flow is where you must go. smokign helps all sorts of problems on phych's like over thinking not thinking too much body load not enuf body load  u get the idea. just does 13 hours before you want to try to slepp realisticly. so if you want to crash at say 3 take your hits at 2-3 i personaly love burning the midnight oil on phychadelics. nothing like a sunrise on mushrooms

getting messed up on psychedelics is the suckiest way of all. it's a totally wrong attitude IMO.
you seem responsible about it though.

I have a friend who could just fall asleep whenever he wanted on acid. I can't do it for the life of me. I generally don't sleep at all on any given night that I dose.
Anyway, no, you don't suck at pyschedelics, but you do need to just let yourself have a weird day. Don't keep planning about inconsequential / small things as you would for a normal day. It's overwhelming (at least to me) and it's unnecessary. Just remember to eat food. That's important.

This is a post to summarize my thoughts, thanks pillow. For instance, I'm OK with increasing body load. People are saying things like "getting fucked up on psychedelics is wrong". Well, they ARE to be respected but they feel amazing so I'm not going to go down that road. Respect them but enjoy them too 
And a sunrise on mushrooms! That would be nice, but it's normally "a sunrise on an acid comedown", or "a sunrise on a mushroom comedown". So that's not quite the same! 
It's been a long time since I've smoked a lot of pot while on psychedelics and I think this is exactly what I've needed. I'm glad I asked!

I suck. Last time I dosed was around 8 pm. I had class all the next day and never got to sleep. I really wanted to see STS9 on doses though. Oh well it sucked but the show was much worth it.

A trip isn't a trip for me unless I'm smoking weed. It kicks the trip into full gear.

thats the best way to do it imo. Less negative things from reality that can shit all over you.

Yeah. I don't really have a hard time during the shows or walking around. It's more..once I get back to the tent around 2:30 and I want to sleep but it's a hella no-go
