How much tripping is too much?
    #7604468 - 11/06/07 08:24 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

Let's just assume you're a mentally healthy person that doesnt let tripping interfere with your daily obligations and responsibilities. How much tripping is too much?

I only ask because i tripped 3 weekends in a row, and then 2 weeks later tripped again. Three blotters each time. Based on my observations, I personally need to space my trips about 2 weeks apart to have each be just as glorious as the last. Opinions?

Well since it sounds like your just worried about tolerance I'd say every 2 weeks should be good, but I'd imagine that'd be pretty stressful on the brain and give you a good case of HPPD.

as much as you may want to, or eventually want to, start tripping every week or more often, it's not going to be a good idea in the long run.

I agree with this, sometimes you need to take a break and really understand what happened or what is going on before you jump back in to another dose.

I was like you for about a month and a half, and then I took a trip which was pretty damn intense and made me want to take a break for a while. I really need to let things sink in before I take another dose it puts a lot of strain on your mind. Sometimes it feels like I have minor visuals through the day like things moving in my peripheral vision. But this subsides after a long break.

Earlier this year I also went through a couple months of very frequent acid and mushroom tripping, generally once or twice a week, sometimes once every two weeks. Tolerance was never a big issue for me, but then when it actually did start to become an issue it was already obvious that I was overdoing it.

These days I trip once or twice a month, and I predict more reduction ahead. I just stopped wanting to do it all the time, because it really isn't the same when you do.

I'm not sure there really is an inherent risk in overdoing it, other than reducing the significance and starkness of your psychedelic experiences. I personally don't have any HPPD-like effects what so ever, aside from the occasional brief, nostalgic visual trip when I'm really stoned, but I don't count that. And it doesn't sound like you let it get in the way of responsibilities. Don't take that to mean that you shouldn't do it less, however, as tripping only gets less profound and less joyful with frequency.

Just don't abuse the substances or they will abuse you back.

Developing a tolerance is the yellow or caution light in the green means go and it may be too late to hit the brakes on the red scale for me.

yeah, LSD kind of gave me some semi-permanent hallucinations....for example, when I looked at numbers or letters sometimes they seemed to move just a wee bit. It hasn't done that for a while, though. But your relatively frequent tripping on LSD can cause a host of problems, HPPD for one which could make you go insane, and serotonin syndrome for two, which could kill you.

Be careful.

I dont know about it getting less profound, it obviously would if you were taking it frequently enough to have a tolerance but i think the problem is more a case of taking in expectations. You can't expect to have the same glowing trip everytime. There's a lot of other states it can show you and if you strive one way it could go the other..
I found once a week to be too much after about a month or so, especially with smoking weed on a fairly regular basis as well. I think the ammount of outside commitments also add pressure to it. To do it that frequently i wasn't really giving proper preparation to set and setting.. leading to more unpleasant trips which take longer to process after the event. I could see how HPPD and some serotonin imbalance could occurr with overuse....

I've abused LSD... I've done it 4 week ends in a row.
Small blotters, 30ug each.
First Time: 3 blotters (90ug)
Second Time: 2 blotters (60ug)
Third Time: 10 blotters (300ug)
Fourth Time: 6 blotters (180ug)

Little HPPD.

too much tripping is enough to make you think that it is a normal thing to do on a weekend.

or something you do to have fun because you cant think of anything else to do to have fun.


and yeah if you still havent peiced your brain back together from your last by all means dont do it again.

I would limit it to every 2 weeks at that. The only reason for that being is because you actually have time to NOT build tolerance and when you are ready to try again - you will get the full effect. For example, increasing from 150ug to 300ug in a 2 week span...you will defiantly be able to tell the differences between the doses because you will have no tolerance. However, doing both these doses in 1 or 2 weeks time...you wouldn't really know what your feeling due to the fact of a tolerance being built in the previous trip.

At times I get consumed by my everyday life and will leave the Shroomery. Yet, every time drugs come falling into my life for fun.....I always think about the Shroomery and then I'm back!
