An Unusual Overwhelming Trip

This past wednesday, me and a friend of mine split a five strip of some pretty primo LSD (probably ingested 200 to 250 ugs). I consider myself an experienced tripper and I do a bizzare amount of reading on the subject and I have a the utmost respect and love for LSD but last time I tripped out, a very good friend of mine had a horrendous experience and since than is horrified of it. I witnessed his "seven hours in hell" and I can testify it looked like the worst experience anyone could go through. So as I dropped on wednesday at 2 o'clock I couldn't help but think about my last experience and my friend. The acid came on unusually fast, about 20 to 30 minutes, unlike the usual hour give or take 10 minutes. I was spending the day in Brooklyn at my friends apartment and I had a ten strip left. For the first half hour or so, I was reading Be Here Now but I had to stop and said I would pick it up later. We were suppose to pick up another friend at Time Square because he is unfamiliar with the city but since the acid hit us so fast he just so happened to find his way to our building and he took a hit as well. We throw on dazed and confused (the movie) and I start to notice I am tripping unusually hard and it is still growing. My trip started evolving, my reality is all sorts of distorted and I'm hallucinating all crazy things and next thing I know I am in my boxers going crazy. Banging on walls, yelling I fucked up, ACID, ACID, ACID! The rest of this experience is quite a blur and I don't know if I'll ever be able to fully explain it. The trip shreds my ego apart and I forget where I am, who I am, what I'm doing, and just become all. I try to read the book and make sense of it all but by this point I am too confused and realize I must look inward for help. I see everything and at this point I had never been full of so much love and energy. My friends were a little concerend for me because they had no idea what was going on and they know that I love my marijuana, so they roll up a blunt to calm me down and by the end of the blunt I am coherent and slowly coming back. I start to explain the whole experience to the best of my ability. It was crazy because everything I was saying they couldn't believe how much this experience taught me. Anyways, no matter how much I type in this post I will never be able to fully explain it all as I feel I have done an Inadequate job here but I know that some people will understand me on this. My friends asked me, "Was it bad at all?" I tell them I loved every single second of it and there's no doubt in my mind that I'll eat LSD again. I learn the most about myself from trips and that's why I love every single one no matter what. So to conclude this whole thing, does anyone here, and I'm sure there is, love an overwhelming trip like this because you know that you're gonna be better for it in the end. Namaste.

Yeah that's what bad trips are like for me. Theyre difficult for a while, but once the bad part is over you feel SO FUCKING GOOD. It's really a wonderful feeling.

sometimes you can learn more from the bad experiences than the fun ones. Like everything in life, there's good and bad.but Its not whether its bad or good, its what you brought back and learned from the experience. Even in my darkest of places, I was still able to climb out the hole with pure insight

Well said. People are too scared of "bad trips." You always learn the most about yourself from an overwhelming trip. I hate the phrase bad trip because there is always some sort of positive outcome if you look at it with the right perception. All trips have to be looked at as beneficial no matter what if you don't want to get fucked. If you want to avoid an overwhelming trip, become all and lose your fears. Once your fears are gone there's nothing left to be bad. I tend to always have ridiculously fun trips but I also believe it has to do with karma, so perhaps this past trip had to do with something in the past. One doesn't reach enlightenment through a handful of fun trips though. You have to go through the good the bad and the ugly. To sum it all up, don't be afraid, accept it, love it. Peace!

Bad trips are more memorable, and I think in a good way.

usually no, but if it doesn't become TOO intense, or WAY OVER THE EDGE, then yeah.... I actually like a trip that's overwhelming, until you lose control of what you call 'your mind'.... heh peace
