The Addicts' Lounge IV - fast times at Ridgemont, high - General

I just finished writing a trip report of last night, I'll try to post it later after revising it. I'm a bit embarrassed about posting in the midst of that state last night because verbal/textual communication is pointless when you're experiencing totality as colorful light and sounds, but whatever. I remembered most of everything from the trip as I wrote it down this morning, so I will soon present that form to you. It's some crazy shit though, I basically died and merged with the cosmos, was reborn a new form from what I previously was, and learned a lot about the process of creation and its implications to consciousness/awareness and its relation to the human condition. Oh I also met and played with my own demons and entities, but I'll elaborate more on that and everything else later. All in all I feel this is the most important experience of my life so far and the way everything unfolded so perfectly and naturally compared to my lesser experiences honestly freaks me out a bit. If you're ready for it, 250ug (if my tabs are properly dosed) with proper music will take you deeper than you can imagine, any more is not even close to being needed imo. Seriously just 2.5 tabs and my visuals were pretty much along the lines of this: [img]https://i.imgur.com/J3d2Brj.png[/img]

I think I might shoot for ~250ug my next trip last trip was 150 and it was great with the visuals I had (sucks though that I ended up in a really non-stimulating area in terms of shit to look at) so id definitely love to start kicking it up a bit more than just 50ug increments each time

250ugs is a really good dose Not so much that you NEED trip sitter, but enough to where you'll be floored by the visuals, your mind running a mile a second, absolutely blasted with mind-fuck. One of my favorite visuals came from a ~250ug trip with some weed, it looked like I had a mech-suit style augmented reality HUD overlayed on my vision, there was all kind of data readouts and I could see all the veins in my arm highlighted in blue. Absolutely ineffable. [sp]I miss acid[/sp]

I always have this conflict in the back of my head between my dreams of living in europe and my love of cali weed, THE BEST WEED ON THE PLANET BAR NONE

I would like to start this off by saying thank you so much DD community for the knowledge, support, and overall good vibes you have provided me and many other lurkers and users of this forum. When I lurked for my first time about 8+ years ago I was curious about drugs. I was the biggest anti drug douche for most of my childhood and adolescence, right up until highschool when I started hanging out with, my now, best friends after school. Then one day I joined facepunch and noticed this little section called Durgs Discussion, and well, the rest was history. I saw the other side of the argument of the war on drugs. I got to see the benefits of drug use whether it be spiritual revelations, medical use, or just good ol fun enhancers. It felt like I was missing a whole crowd who wanted their voice to be heard when it came to drug use, and how each individual can discover amazing new things from this taboo activity. Anyway, the purpose of this is to thank all of you for showing me this door to a world I never thought I could be a part of, or embrace as passionately as I do today. So without anymore fluff I will post my trip report from my best friends and I first time taking acid, and boy I will never forget this for the rest of my life. Setting: Friend's place, away from parents and any responsibilities. Dose: 1 tab each, of LSD, idk what dose but it lasted 7-8 hours easy. My one friend took 3 grams of shrooms instead since he had work (also he smoked weed during his trip and it enhanced his trip in a good way) 9:03am- We woke up early for this since my friend had work later that day. Unfortunately due to time constraints he had to settle and take shrooms instead of the acid, but he still had a fucking blast and came down before he had to go to work, so it all worked out. We put the tabs in our mouths, sat down, and played a board game with harry potter movie in the background. 9:45- I start to think this is weak shit and that I should take a second tab, but then I start to feel weird in my legs. Everyone else says they feel slightly funny but nothing really strong. Thats when I look at the tv. Fucking Umbridge, the douchebag lady in the movie who is a rule nazi, her face starts to slightly morph, her eyes getting bigger and smaller, head growing and shrinking, I knew it was hitting me. So I got up from the game and got my headphones to see how music was going to feel. About 5 minutes into that my friend's fiance starts to cry uncontrollably. No idea what set her off, but it was probably just the raw emotion that hit her first. Up until 10am I can't really remember much besides us putting the music on, leaving the movie on but putting it on mute, and people really starting to feel funky. Oh I think me and my friend took our shirts off because it was a little hot, and I played with water at the kitchen sink and splashed some on my friend. I was wearing a Bob Ross shirt and took it off so I could look at him. 10-10:40 - We peaking now bois. Everything becomes super bright, the light in the room seems to glow bright, like fluctuating in brightness. I wave my hand infront of my face and whoa boy those tracers were fucking awesome. Everyone is feeling loopy but coherent. We are all talking to eachother, about what we see and feel, and trying to put music on thats good vibes. But then sometime during this, the movie stops due to an error, which thank god, because the Umbridge face warping was freaking me out and this was the movie with dementors in it and yeah we dont want that shit. So somehow mid peak I have the smarts to plug my ps4 in so we can play Hohokum (I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME WHILE TRIPPING, ITS FUCKING INCREDIBLE TO PLAY AND WATCH). Anyway, I get it setup and start it up. I think this was around the time my other friend, his girlfriend starts to cry ( i think it was a sad song on or something) so when I put the game on everyone stopped what they were doing and started to watch. The music, the visuals, was just fucking amazing, but what was even more awesome was that everyone was synced up in a moment and lost in the videogame together. Idk, it was just a nice moment where we were all focused on the same thing, it was beautiful. 10:40- I remember this time because I pointed it out that it has only been like an hour when it felt like hours to all of us. At this point people spread out, we had people on the sofa by the tv, someone on the futon and it turned into lazy mode. Like it was hard for people to move, lol. Even though the 2 seats were like 5 feet away from each other, it felt like the person was a mile away and it was so fucking hard to move, or at the very least our bodies didnt want to use the effort or move from our comfortable positions. Funny enough my friend's girlfriend starts to slide off the couch and she says she's drowning (she was sweating so her soaked jacket made her think she was drowning in the ocean, like some kind of 'the floor is lava' game, we laughed our asses off). I ended up on the floor somehow, staring out the window pulling in the sun energy. Man the outside looked awesome but this acid was way too strong for going out in public at that time. While I was on the floor and people were playing Hohokum, we all started to cry. I don't know what it was, but we legit all started crying at the same time. I decided this was a good moment for self reflection and thought about some deep stuff I was dealing with mentally, and guided my emotions along the trip feelings. It felt so good to cry, it was such a great moment of relief, no pain, but like, sweet release. We keep playing and my friend starts to make breakfast for us since we didn't eat much after waking up. His fiance brings us the food on the couch and basically hand feeds us while we are tripping fucking balls, we are making mama bird jokes n shit, it was hilarious. My friend gives me a fork with some sausage and I kinda choked on it since I was lying on the ground so I spit it up and his dog comes over and eats it, I laugh my ass off. Some time during this we beat the first level of the game and honestly I'm amazed by this achievement. I get the controller after that and discover a new character. The music in the game changes as it triggers a cut scene and everyone stops what they're doing and watches. The new character gets introduced and his/her name is Louis, and we all shout the name at the same time in excitement like, "Ohhhhhh shit its LOUIS" as if hes our old friend or something lol. Since the character is blue and we had this blue 8 pound little exercise ball that we were playing with, we decided to name the ball Louis. 12:34 - so yea all of that shit before leads to this time frame, mainly because this is another moment where we looked at the clock and were like "holy shit guys its ONE TWO THREE FOUR", so yeah we had a good few minutes laughing and celebrating the totally arbitrary clock time. Around this time we start to stop playing the game and try to think of stuff we should do. We try to put music on, but technology is nigh impossible to do now. We didn't really setup a proper playlist, like, yes we have playlists but every once in a while a sad song could come in and make people cry, so it was hard to choose a band or list that was upbeat, without a sad single in it or some song not everybody liked. Holding my phone was surreal, I will never hold a phone the same again. The weight would change constantly and it felt like it was getting fatter and skinnier as I held it in my hand. Anything I held felt like it's shape was changing, and no matter how hard I thought to my self that, "cmon man you know the table isn't moving" it still felt like it was pushing back on me and pulling away. I think from this time onward it gets hard to say what happened in what order. I went to the bedroom to see the mirror, and holly shit dudes, it was wild. Because of the face morphing thing, when I saw my face it looked like my hair was floating, like being in space. Then my face was morphing, as if I was growing older, or rather I was looking into a portal of my ancestors. I looked at it in 2 ways, it looked like my family lineage where I was seeing my great great great granddad and beyond, and it was changing so it was like multiple different men across my family tree. The other way was my expressions/my possible timelines. Like, I was looking into a portal of the different versions of cpncrunch, like I saw versions of me that looked old, wrinkly, tired, and some that looked demonic, evil, with this evil smirk on my face as if there's a timeline out there of me being the ultimate douchebag. It was so fascinating to sit there and focus on the visuals of face morphing. Then I turned around and saw the bathroom. I guess because of the tiles on the floor and my positioning, it looked like an optical illusion where it seemed like the bathroom was a fake set, where you can walk in and it would actually be really small like alice in wonderland style. I bring my friends over only for them to be like, crunch, ur fucking insane dude it looks fine, lol. After that we return to the living room and put on Guardians of the Galaxy music. This is when we notice 2 mini ketchup containers, like those mini heinz ones, and I grab one in each hand. It was so fucking weird to hold because they were both new, so they had the same weight, but while I was holding it I felt one get heavier and lighter constantly. Also it felt amazing just to hold onto things so I gave it to my friend mid song and he started jamming to the song with the ketchups. 1-4pm to end - Around here it gets fuzzy since we had some people start to play N64 games. They played a puzzle game where it's sort of like bejeweled so the colors where just amazing since blue was turning red and all this crazy shit. I can't believe they were able to play while tripping because the warping of the shapes and shit was starting to get hard to look at, nausea wise. This is around the time my friend starts getting ready for work, around 2-3 is when he leaves for work. We say our goodbyes but we are definitely still tripping and have a couple more peaks coming. Since my friend goes to work, his fiance and I walk with him outside while the my other friend couple stay inside to shower, they were tripping hard so weren't comfortable going outside. I walk the dogs with her and man outside was so bright and beautiful, it felt so good to get fresh air. When we got back we decided we needed a good comedown activity, so we threw on Fantastic Mr. Fox, and man it was perfect. The music was perfect, there was no scary scenes, no gore, just good vibes man, and it was the perfect movie to tie the whole trip up. Afterwards we go outside, round the corner, ordered pizza, went got booze for later in the night. Then stopped at the local park and got on the swings. It felt great to swing, the weightlessness felt cool, but I started to get nauseous. We got the pizza, which not gonna lie probably still too high for, since dealing with people was very strange and kinda stressful, but we made it out ok. Overall, it was an amazing trip, and I wouldn't have done it with anyone else like that. We all had an amazing experience that really opened up our eyes to shit. So many emotions, but we were all happy to share them with each other and enjoy the trip. No one got hurt, no one had a bad trip (sure we cried but afterwards everyone said it felt good to release it), it was a safe, controlled environment, with people we all trusted the most. Thanks again DD for the info and support, I really can't thank you enough for the gift of this unforgettable life experience.

[QUOTE=PredGD;52314559]think I paid 95$ for the last 5g I bought which seems to be the standard price for that amount.[/QUOTE] I get 5 for $50 even then usually discounted if I buy in bulk like that that sucks

Anyone have experience buying 1P-LSD or similar? Planning on buying 50 blotters from Lysergi with some friends but I wanna hear if others have experience with it.

[QUOTE=VIOLATION_SNG;52315667]yeah christ anywhere I've been it's always around $10 a gram. last quarter i got was $70, $95 for 5gs is insane [editline]5th June 2017[/editline] and i live in PA as well it's not like it's legal anywhere that close to here[/QUOTE] i pay $100 for a q here, which given conversion rates equals to more or less the same amount.

[QUOTE=.Isak.;52317924]Anyone have experience buying 1P-LSD or similar? Planning on buying 50 blotters from Lysergi with some friends but I wanna hear if others have experience with it.[/QUOTE] I've never had bad experiences with RC vendors, or LSD analogs. Its imo the way to go for LSD because you can be sure it's not an NBOMe and its dosage is actually accurate.

[QUOTE=.Isak.;52317924]Anyone have experience buying 1P-LSD or similar? Planning on buying 50 blotters from Lysergi with some friends but I wanna hear if others have experience with it.[/QUOTE] Found no discernible difference to real LSD here, besides maybe a slight drop in duration.

[QUOTE=.Isak.;52317924]Anyone have experience buying 1P-LSD or similar? Planning on buying 50 blotters from Lysergi with some friends but I wanna hear if others have experience with it.[/QUOTE] People have already commented, but remember to keep it in a cold and dry place to prevent oxidation/denaturation of the active product. The ratio of 1P-LSD to LSD is not strictly 1 to 1 cause of the difference in molecular structure (hence affecting the dose/weight of active compound), but it's considered a prodrug of LSD so it's essentially the same with the same effects.

Man I really wanna trip right now, but I won't be able to for probably at least a month minimum...

[QUOTE=.Isak.;52317924]Anyone have experience buying 1P-LSD or similar? Planning on buying 50 blotters from Lysergi with some friends but I wanna hear if others have experience with it.[/QUOTE] The blotters are very accurate, pretty much the same kind of things you'd expect on an equivalent dose of real LSD, except in my experience lasts a noticably shorter time. It's maybe 30-60 mins shorter in overall duration in all of me and my friend's experiences, you come down incredibly fast. The peak is still incredible though, it's worth it.

Is the peak any shorter or is it really only the come down that's shortened? Because I gotta say I have always hated how scatterbrained and out of it and even sore I feel still 10-12 hours later

[QUOTE=Pat.Lithium;52306212] whats the best munchies food? my brother pulled out some frosties the other day and it was pretty sweet.[/QUOTE] bit late, but favourite is always crunchy m&ms only downside is when I'm fucking baked I often miss my mouth then wake up with m&ms everywhere rofl Also about a week and a half cleanse just past, thinking of having joint tonight cause I'm going to be getting wasted on Saturday then possibly doing shrooms depends on friends really

went to Paradox in Amsterdam, supposedly the best coffeeshop for edibles, ate a whole one despite the packaging saying experienced users should eat half......and I was totally underwhelmed by the high. it was like I had smoked two bowls back home. I hadn't even smoked for a few days before it, definitely disappointed. should have eaten 3 or 4 I guess. lame

[QUOTE=Black Pete;52318344]WE ALSO SELL WEED[/QUOTE] and shrooms! also i read this paper and i found it very interesting: [url]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3935397/[/url] so basically the theory is that a region in your brain called the claustrum is responsible for managing your consciousness. one experiment where electrodes stimulated the claustrum basically made the person stare right ahead like a zombie while the claustrum was stimulated. Now this claustrum contains a lot of kappa-opioid receptors. much more compared to other regions of the brain. since salvinorin a is a kappa opioid agonist, that means it stimulates this area the most. basically the salvia high is a temporary (in recreational doses, partial) detachment from your consciousness. The fear aspect of the trip is probably unrelated to that, but more because the amygdala also contains some k-opioid receptors and this area is linked to fear

I wonder if that explains why people often experience becoming objects while they're under the influence of salvia? never tried it myself but it seems like it's a common theme among people to become houses, asphalt, sign posts, cars, bottles etc. makes kind of sense if it detaches you from your own consciousness

If 1P-LSD is shorter, thank god, because the comedown from acid takes [I]ages[/I] and I always get a killer headache from forgetting to stay hydrated.

woah, I've been vaping wrong all along. who would have known less weed = more high? think I've been packing my vape too dense earlier. [editline]7th June 2017[/editline] the worst part about LSD imo is the insane length and the massive comedown. I like coming up and most of the peak and that chill moment once you've settled into the psychedelic headspace towards the end of the peak, but everything after is just meh. I don't like being stuck in a mediocre psychedelic experience, I want the insanity. so I always just lie in bed for hours on end waiting to fall asleep. its chill in a way but at the same time I just want to move on with my life and be done with it. weed is mandatory for this phase wish there were more niche drugs in this country, I too want to try these cool RCs :(

[editline]7th June 2017[/editline] oh yeah and making a spliff that way with 1/4g in it was a [i]really[/i] great idea.

cons: requires $20 "precision" scale (it's actually surprisingly accurate, somehow)

Went to see tycho live took half a pill feeling great thought I would tell you guys :)

I wish I could find 2CB. It sounds interesting to have a psychedelic experience without the mindfuck mindload, plus manageable effects and a short duration mean it'd be nice for a quick daytrip.

Funfact: Acetaminophen apparently can act as a pseudo-anxiolytic with endocannabinoids [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19580839[/URL] im at risk of sounding crazy, but my inspiration to look into this happened after i popped a couple excedrins for a caffeine headache, and i noticed something remarkable when i went out with friends later on: when i was making conversation, i had the vivid feeling not only feeling like i had more social energy, but also my words seemed to 'flow' out easier and i felt less stressed out. no awkward silences because i felt i could keep a conversation flowing super easily. i did not feel dulled or anything when it came to positive emotions as well which again is remarkable. what make me look into this is i read a while ago that tylenol can dull pain when it comes to social rejection ([URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20548058[/URL]), so i thought "what if it could work as an anxiolytic then?"
