When is it "time"?
    #7910941 - 01/21/08 06:09 PM (16 years, 11 days ago)

I know there are quite a few people who like to space their trips out, and will often wait until they feel it's "time". I like to space my experiences out, and try not to trip more than once a month.

For those of you who like to wait until it's "time", what sort of things are you looking for in your own life to decide that it's a good time to trip?

I've been considering tripping for the past couple of weeks. I haven't tripped since November 13th, and am sort of getting the "it's time" vibe. Currently, I am quite content at where I am at this point in my life. I'm single...yet happily single. I have faith that things will work out the way they are meant to. I'm ahead of all my homework in university (which is saying a lot for me). I've also recently picked writing back up and realized how much I enjoy it and how much it allows me to articulate thoughts in an abstract manner. Overall, I feel like I'm in a really good place in my life right now. Perhaps that's why I feel that I am due for a trip. I've sorted out a lot of underlying psychological stressors, and while I'm not entirely stress/problem-free, I am confident in my abilities, in my future, and in my decisions.

I suppose I'm looking for a spiritual/intellectual experience. I hope for a positive experience all around, but I know most trips have their difficulties and I'm ready to face them (I find that overcoming a troublesome trip results in this almost euphoric/at peace feeling).

So...with that said...what makes you feel that it's "time" to trip yourself?

Whenever it feels right. I don't schedule anything. Sometimes I trip frequently, sometimes I don't trip for a long time. Just do what feels right.

I haven't tripped for two months because I felt like my last one completely blew my mind.

I have not felt ready, and I feel like I need to follow some of the guidelines given by far from here to feel ready once again.

Things like eating healthier, and meditation. I need to get a clear head because I am not in a good state right now in my life.

It's really up to your own little head.

I mean you aren't thinking something like "I really shouldn't be doing this." Hesitation =/= nervousness.

Eh, sometimes that's true, and sometimes you need to get over the "maybe I shouldn't be doing this" hump.

In my case that's when I do a lower dose. I was answering the question within the context of a "real" trip (1/8th or more for mushrooms IMHO), and I never like to trip hard when I wasn't completely ready for it, thats when bad trips happen for me.

FarFromHere: That is a truly awesome list. Is it taoist teaching specifically or your own guidelines that you have created, or is it from something else entirely? (sorry for the post hijack, but I'm really interested in that list...maybe PM me with more info?)

when stress is lowest.

If you are busy in your life, or things are hectic, then i would wait. When you are caught up on things, have nothing holding you down, aren't being stressed at work/school, aren't in the middle of any spats with friends/spouses, then consider it to be the "time".

Step back and look at where you are at right now, from a third person perspective. And then decide if it's a good time to take a drive into the expansions of your mind.

FarFromHere, thats a pretty good list, but I noticed LSD was strangely absent...

LSD is natural in it's own way, I think it's ignorant to exclude it when you include mushrooms cactus and aya.

all good advice. 7 times a year at most is a very very reasonable guideline.

I personally feel in-touch enough with my psyche to partake when it just "feels" right. Sometimes you just know

To the OP- Do you mind if I discuss the statements in my list a bit?



LSD is absent because my personal choice is to not take it, with so many people selling blotter with all kinds of chemicals besides pure LSD-25, I'd rather not risk it.



Quote:

I think so...

At first I said 13 times a year, which is once every 28 days,

But I don't think you need to trip that much.

exactly. I usually keep a small personal stash of various psychedelics around just in case i feel its time. That way when its time i can dose at my comfort rather than trying to find it before the moment passes.


when its time you know. :wink: you dont have to look for signs.
