Sleeping on Psychedelics

For so long I had held it as gospel that once i drop some shrooms I can't fall asleep until the trip is over. Yesterday, however, was different. I was having a bad trip and wanted it to be over, so I closed my eyes and did not open them once. It took some incredible willpower, but surprisingly I did fall asleep for like 4 hours and when I woke up I was coming down and felt great.
My theory is that if you can keep your eyes closed for as long as you normally would when trying to sleep your body can still fall asleep (as long as you are tired of course). Its just that usually its really hard to concentrate on trying to sleep. What do you guys think, ever fallen asleep while trippin hard?

Couldn't say - I fall asleep on shrooms no problem. I usually close my eyes and the visuals keep going and they act as a visual lullabye. I have some pretty cool dreams and wake up at three or four hours later.

Its nearly impossible for me to fall asleep while tripping...on the comedown I guess it would be possible for me.

While peaking or during a intense time, no way. Maybe while coming down I could go to sleep, but I usually never want the effects to end so I don't see myself doing such.

Once you get over being really excited about tripping, it's much easier to sleep on it. I'm usually drinking too, and that helps. Sleeping aides like Tylenol PM work just fine, but take a while to work. It's also simply hard to sleep when fun things are happening nearby, which happens in most states of mind.
I've had some great lucid dreams tripping. It's intense what the effects of psychedelics can have combined with the already-imaginative dream-world.
This obviously won't happen if uppers are involved.

I can't sleep during the peak (first couple hours for shrooms, first four hours or so for acid). After that I can sleep as easily as ever, even while I'm still coming down.

your thread is sleeping on psychedelics. imagine dreaming on psychedelics. like cutting up a tab or two packing it in some empty gel tabs popping them right before bed and trip while you dream.
Haven't had the luxury of doing it myself but do anticipate it.
As for the original topic. Have you ever seen super troopers when the kid is tripping balls in the back seat of his car and little kid laughter fills his ears. When i try to sleep i hear nothing but laughter and birds. Impossible to sleep to such joyous sounds.

I've had mixed experiences... Sometimes I can't get to sleep. Even at like 7am I can't get to sleep after tripping all night. Other times I just crash, no problem. Find myself nodding off peacefully after an exhausting trip. I've only slept during a peak once. I was on triple C's for my second time and me and my boyfriend fell asleep thinking nothing was going to happen. We woke up at the same time like 2 hours later tripping balls. It's a strange feeling. You seem to forget you've taken drugs. Fun though.

The first time I ate mushrooms with my fiance she crapped out within a half hour or so of eating them. So it's obviously possible to fall asleep before they start kicking in. But it can probably have a pretty horrible outcome too. Fortunately, she only ate less than half an eighth so everything turned out okay even though I just let her sleep for a while.
When she woke up she told me that she had been dreaming about jello and then she woke up and her body felt like jello.
Personally, I've never been able to sleep at all at any point during a trip. There were maybe a couple times that I wanted to just have it end and go to sleep but those were the times that I didn't have a snowball's chance in hell.

my friend had ate what we thought were low potent shrooms the first time he tripped.
He ate an 1/8 at about 8:30ish but he woke up 12 at midnight by himself in his room trippen HARD, his AC kept shrinking and getting bigger even tho his window was stayin the same size, then he walks around and his legs apparantly were shaking like jello
i felt bad, being that i gave em to him and dropped him off at his crib but he still would like to try them again

Yeah, I don't think anything physically prevents sleep at all. After all, these aren't uppers. Its just...when you close your eyes and see eternity, sometimes its hard to sleep...

I have passed out after eating an eighth of amazing cubes. I have also fallen asleep after gobling a fairly low dose of acid.
The substance i have never been able to catch a single wink on would be DOC. I was tired and THOUGHT i would be able to sleep about 12 hours in, no go. I layed in bed and "pretended to sleep" as my friend puts it, in actuality i was just hearing the wildest audio hallucinations while watching the vivid CEVs until i decided to get up.

First time I tripped was in a moderate dose of heavenly blues. I was nauseas and had only encountered moderate body buzz and some pulsing light. That was at two hours. I went to bed feeling moderately well, ony to wake up about three and a half hours into peaking. I woke up to color smears all around. Pretty nifty. LSA didn't seem to keep me up.

The last time I took mushrooms I fell asleep, and when I woke up in the morning I was sort of pissed because right before the sleep was the best part of the trip for me. Even to simply miss out on the visuals just seemed like such a downer. So I awaked, and baked and lived the last few hours of strong afterglow.
Now that I cant really trip anymore because I trip about 5+ times harder/differently than your average joe, sleeping on that last shroom trip seems almost sinful. It felt stupid as hell at the time too.
With lsd I have fallen asleep while still tripping nicely only once. It was one of the craziest things I have ever experienced on psychedelics. I fell asleep as my self just flowed away from me and I was left with this tapestry of sounds that were all speaking to eachother. The closer I came to actual sleep the louder they became. I think the moment I actually fell asleep is also when I woke up to the mind shattering sounds of a billion little visual coils that emit sound and talk to each other. It was kind of like being electricuted.
I was listening to these sounds in silence before my mini-nap. Clearly my intentions facilitated this inhuman collection of sounds. Its not the last time I got that deep into it though. It only encouraged me to listen more often, and figure out "its" shape, date of birth, and name..............lol
So falling asleep on lsd caused me to enter some pretty strange territory.
Some of the secrets are in that place. They sing to you, but can you sing back in silence? Can you sing as well? Why not? Thats for you to find out. Its some pretty weird shit though. As funky as it gets. Dont be surprized when that landscape laughs and cheers for you once they open their doors to you in a very literal way. You wont fucking believe what Im talking about until you see it. You dont have to believe me.
Sleep has been both a bad and very good thing when it comes to tripping. For me anyways.

Yep I have had that happen before, DOC is the hardest to sleep on... it takes me at least 16 hours til i can sleep

I tryed to sleep the first time I took LSD. The dreams were intense and I kept waking up either less than a minute later or 5-10. I kept looking at the clock not believing that no time had passed. The dreams were amazing, vast landscapes of shimmering and melding colors with weird orbs floating around with CAT-5 coming out in all directions networking everything together and I'd pick one and fly down the cable like a roller coaster. It was amazing.
