Acid helped me quit smoking and solve other issues

Hello DD,
I haven't posted in this section in quite a while - if anybody still remembers me, sweet.
For around two and a half years now, I have been a smoker. For a year and a half of that, I have been a very heavy smoker (worked my way up to a pack a day very quickly). Just like anyone else who smokes, I thought I enjoyed it... which is a mentality problem. I didn't enjoy smoking at all, I hated the taste - but I would lie to myself so easily, and tell myself I loved the flavor or cigarettes. In retrospect, that was actually indicative of what I believe were some much deeper underlying problems. I drew such issue with myself, and my weak self-image, that I turned to smoking as an escape, you know?
In reality, I was very unhappy. I honestly don't know WHAT the issues were that I had, but I was constantly over-stressed, to the point where I would become moody and withdrawn over minor incidents. I was having a hard time sleeping at night, and when I was awake I was tired and pissed off.
A while ago, though, I was hanging out with a friend on a day off, and she had lost her acid. I had dosed 30mg of adderall the night before, and spent the entire night looking for her acid. I found it for her, and she offered me one as a thank you. She also offered to babysit me while I tripped, which gave me no reason not to. I took the blotter and absorbed it in my mouth for a half hour. An hour later, I wasn't feeling anything, so I took a second one.
After playing Glover for an hour (I couldn't even make it through the tutorial, haha), I spent a half hour trying to get a lighter to stand up on the table... when I achieved this, I felt so proud of myself that it immediately put me into a good mood. By this time, I had forgotten that I had even dosed the acid (as we had smoked a couple bowls), and I can distinctly recall that I began tripping HARD very suddenly. I had to remind myself I had taken the blotters, and went to lay down on my friend's bed.
I don't recall the next 6 hours, but I have this sense deep inside me that I lived several lifetimes during the peak of the trip. I don't remember specifics, but I do recall having intensely interesting conversation with several people. Of course, I was tripping, so i wasn't actually having these conversations, but I think that's where it turned into therapy.
I don't know if you are familiar with the concepts behind having conversations with the characters in your dreams, but supposedly, when you are talking to someone in a dream, you are actually talking to your conscious/inner self. I strongly feel that my acid trip helped me overcome unknown issues within myself, and reach a conclusive state from which I can "start off new", so to speak. I mean, me, a pack-a-day smoker, quit smoking. Not only that, but I haven't had any issues sleeping since the trip, and I find I don't have severe anxiety issues anymore.
I definitely don't claim to be a psychologist, and I don't want to send off the wrong idea to ANYONE in this forum: [B]Acid is a [/B]potentially[B] dangerous drug[/B]. You should NOT take LSD if you have issues with depression, stress, or if you are [B]not ready[/B]. However, if or when you decide to dose, let it run it's course. Who knows, you might become a much better person because of it :)
acid helped me ease up on smoking weed. but only cause now the money i spend on acid doesn't leave much to be spent on weed.

Hope it wasnt frequent use.. Frequent acid use fuuuuuuuucks you up.
LSD is one hell of a drug.
I like how it shows you both your greatest dreams and your worst nightmares.
thinking about doing it... some day.. talked about it with a mate in my class..
Also theres great books available about this subject I suggest you check them out sometimes.
Can't wait for my first trip tbh.
LSD really is the best drug, and I see how it could change somebody's life for good or bad.
glover is one hell of a drug

it does? my friend has been dropping acid every other day for like, two months and he seems fine...
i have been like once a week or so. haven't noticed any negative effects.
Frequent use of anything will fuck some people up and leave others unharmed.
Also acid is great. I still like mushies more though..
1 trip on acid is like 1 month with therapy.

it all depends on your mental conditioning.
God what i would give to be able to safely dose acid again... i'd just sit there, listen to music and meditate for 9 hours.
Ofc, but you know what I meant...
Being in an awkward/bad situation while tripping on acid can turn out pretty bad. I've felt it myself. My mental condition is all good, so it's game on for me, but for the ones who's struggling with their psyche; stay away. This can fuck you up pretty badly.
Sorry to hear about your condition.
nvm
I really want to try acid
I've done shrooms a few times and they were amazing, I think acid will be something entirely different though
i enjoy solving problems in life during a shroom session. sometimes 'bad' trips are the ones we can learn most from.
Dose acid, have epiphany!!
I believe acid is the key to unlocking the mysteries of our mind and being able to understand what truly causes our emotions and feelings.
many things must be observed at the extremes to really understand them.
psychadelics push your entire mind to its extremes and leave you in a shattered realm in which you can pick up the pieces and learn how your mind is put together.
