well, the only reason i fall asleep is because the trips almost over. The only time i haven't fallen asleep i had the same results, the main trip ended 6-7 hours in but i still saw some small visuals. i wasnt sober but wasnt really tripping. for me, after the 6 hour mark i just start to get bored because im not seeing as much or in the same state of mind.
also, i have a really fast metabolism, but that doesnt mean my trips arent good. i had a shroom trip that lasted like 4.5 hours but was intense as fuck.

so does having a faster metabolism mean that your trips are shorter?

Metabolism has little to no effect on an LSD trip. I have a really fast metabolism, it is hard for me to gain any weight without working out, and yet a good dose of LSD still lasts me 12 hours.
LSD has a predetermined half-life of about 3 hours, so it could be possible that you took only slightly above a threshhold dose and your trip started winding down very shortly after peaking..
I would say, either take more, and if it still doesn't last beyond six hours, that you need to find a new source. The best acid doesn't taste like a damn thing and you will stay up for as long as you're tripping.
It's also been proven that you will wake up if you have been dosed when you're sleeping...sleep is just not possible on LSD. The trip is usually too intense for you to explore it in your sleep, and since LSD mimics serotonin, the chemical in your brain that is released upon waking up, it's like you're wired on caffeine. If it hit your melatonin receptors instead it would make you pass out, but it doesn't.

When you say 12 hours, do you mean that you're actually tripping the whole time, or peak plus after affects.

Oh, and what's the latest you can boost your acid trips before you start getting tolerance. I'm going to try taking 6 or 7 this weekend and I want to increase the duration.

Take some 5-htp (supplement), and no one's said it but I think melatonin could help or change it.

I think it's dose. I mean, I couldn't fall asleep at 6 hours, but I'll often start comming down at about 5 if I take 1 hit. Larger doses and can last a really long time.

I think seratonin is released most during sleep and that is why LSD can be like a waking dream. I think the stimulant properties (aside from the intensity of the effects) can be attributed to the fact that LSD also seems to be a dopamine agonist (fakes dopamine). This is why it can feel speedy and also give you a more superman amphetamine-like vibe than mushrooms or other tryptamines.

Last trip on acid lasted a longgg time... effects after 1 hr, peaked around 3, enjoyed fractals for 3 more hours at least, and had an altered state of thought after until i fell asleep..
I guess i'd say 10 hours?

I think it's either low dose or one being just unperceptive of LSD's effects.

i watched this dude eat a drop of killer liquid and he fell asleep a few times throughout the trip. hes a pretty fucked up guy. i mean, weird almost narcoleptic, and sometimes insomniac. but we were all watching a movie and this dude nodded off a couple times and all i heard was snoring. weird shit. people react differently to chemicals.

Probably not LSD, or it is a minimal amount.
