    Your thoughts on DOB..

    When it comes to dose, I imagine if your supplier was tripping for 30 hours s/he probably took a higher dose than I did. For me, the dose I took felt "just right"
  2. S

    Your thoughts on DOB..

    Hm.. the problem is I don't exactly know the dose on the blotter. you don't want to underdose (long and boring after a few hours) and you certainly don't want to overdose (vasoconstrictor apparently). Compared to the only other RC I've tried (2CI, done a few times) I found dragonfly physically...

    travelling back thru time

    the paleolithic period for me, most amazing animals.... and it would be kinda trippy to see multiple intelligent humanoid species existing at the same time

    Your thoughts on DOB..

    Anybody here other than me been sold bromo dragonfly on blotter? You'll know if it's a 6-hour comeup (at pretty much any dose). A half tab had me buzzed similar to a gram of mushrooms, except for 17 hours, and without any peaks or dips in lucidity, just a constant, stable, high. Two tabs was...

    been testing the waters......

    interesting.. not dmt but.. i do hear a sort of 'sound' when i'm tripping on acid.. almost as if time is being cut up into chunks continuously slowing down and speeding up. wonder if this is a similar phenomenon..

    no effects of lsd ??

    LSD in a green powder?? That's pretty unlikely (But not impossible, I've heard tales of people crushing and snorting microdots..) Wonder what it is cut with.. It could be an RC as well..
  7. S

    Do you get the urge to purge?

    I've never had this happen (yet). The worst I've ever had was a few minutes of minor nausea during comeup, and that might have just been my dinner and not even the psychedelic.

    The matrix on acid

    the drug reference in the movie if anything... is him taking a pill. then seeing reality bend (even the audio distortions were sort of like what you might hear on acid, granular distortions) and then coming to a new understanding about reality i mean, this movie was popular with the 90's acid...

    Sleep Paralysis - This is Weird

    LSD dose 150~180mcgs, effects?

    Have a wonderful trip. Summer's upon us finally, bet it's going to be a beautiful night! And yeah, there's a lot of ways to preserve your blotter. Mainly you just want to keep it away from light, heat, and oxygen (and moisture of course). You can use tinfoil, stick it in a book, or in...

    In the image of the Father...

    I do agree with a lot of these points. (and yeah I grew up pretty devout as well). Although I see no reason to believe in a human god or a god with a single mind/awareness per se, I'm not really an atheist either, and entheogens (in combination with sober reflection) have changed, or perhaps I...

    Beyond the purple

    Ah.. getting an idea from my brain into the real world.. and of course the process of actually making it changes the idea I have in my head. I'm getting better at this over time, but it's taken many years... (music, not visual art for me, but still creativity) ...keep drawing!!

    no effects of lsd ??

    a few seconds of light and tap water won't do anything. if you left it out in the open for a while or in a warm place it would degrade slowly. i've ruined tabs by leaving them in my wallet for a month (where it's warm and somewhat exposed to oxygen), they still worked but were noticeably...
  20. S

    no effects of lsd ??

    yup. also even if it was a weak blotter, you should have felt at least something, unless there was almost nothing left on that tab

    cannabis raises risk of psychosis

    Didn't realize that. The one I posted is from 2008, maybe it references the 2004 study in passing? (It does credit Maastricht University in the opening hence I assumed it was the same). It's very objective, quite worth a look.

    cannabis raises risk of psychosis

    cannabis raises risk of psychosis

    Marijuana May Cause Cancer and DNA Damage

    Evangelion was the first anime I got into back in the day, was never really big into it but it was fun and so different from anything else at the time.. since then it seems that 90% of mainstream anime has become all the same, high school kids with superpowers or magic having adventures, teen...

    Top Anti-Drug Researcher Changes His Mind

    I know, after misleading the public for decades... I've read studies that say cannabis smoke contains carcinogens, but as to why cannabis smoke doesn't seem to cause cancer we can only guess. some cannabinoids appear to fight cancer, maybe that's why, but yeah, just a guess. Either way...

    Why are psychedelics so two sided?

    Why are psychedelics so two sided?

    :D Honestly, I've seen nothing dark or sinister in the deepest 'truths' psychedelics teach. What you get out of them comes from your life experience and perspective. They can take one to very uncomfortable places that one might not be ready for at the time. Too much information while too...

    Do You Respect Your Limits?

    I respect my limits for the situation I'm in. When I toke alone and have no obligations or pressing matters, it's terrence mckenna's method. When I'm out and about or with people I typically smoke a lot less, few puffs off a j or something.

    Documenting a trip

    +1, I so recommend trying that now and then. When I write down my insights or thoughts while tripping, I've externalized the idea in physical text. And if I spend the time to look at it and think about it I start seeing it from new/different perspectives. Since I started doing this I'm...

    Valerian: slightly more fun than sleep

    Valerian mildly relaxes me but it never seems to help me sleep (I take a couple grams of root in tea now and then).

    Split Second Theory

    Hello, welcome to the forum! A few of my early trips were all about appreciating and living in the now.. which was big for me because I had been raised in a mindset only thinking about living for the future. I do think every second of life is important. A lot can happen in an instant...

    Same sex mariages

    +1 It's a bit of a bunk argument anyway as it means different things to different people.

    Society

    H.O.L.Y. Shit. . . 60x

    The quid is far gentler overall, in terms of the trip, and the comeup (20-30 mins, instead of balls to the wall in 30 seconds). The plateau might last 30-40 mins if you're lucky--once you spit out the quid, you're already coming down. You have time to absorb what's going on, to play with it, I...

    The matrix on acid

    Generally I don't watch movies while tripping but I liked seeing the first matrix on acid, it definitely spoke to me at the time (I have no use for the sequels). 2001 was almost too intense--purely because of Kubrick's style--the cuts are lengthy, the shots are frequently devoid of motion other...

    agreed, of course it's natural. it's been a part of humanity for thousands of years. certain religions have tried to suppress it, kill gays and of course they claim it is unnatural.. certain guys just aren't attracted to women. that's how it is. there's other reasons why marriage rights...

    Fox defecting towards legalization

    Having read a fair amount of those 19th century writings (and having eaten hash) I agree with him.

    Psychonaut exploration method

    For me I guess it's just staying calm, keeping things in perspective: even a difficult thought is just that--a mere thought.

    Abandoning tripping

    Things you should do during trip.

    I get way too critical when I watch most movies while tripping, and tv no way. I can watch some experimental film/animation if it's engaging enough.. but that's about it, and even that for short periods, then it's time to close my eyes or look at a painting or something :)

    Abandoning tripping

    Hope this post doesn't offend you and you can get something out of it.. Depression and psychedelics don't mix. Probably that's why you came away from your trips with a sense of nothingness. It's easy to assume that "nothing" is the answer but I hope you realize that is every bit as emotional...

  78. S

    Abandoning tripping

    all of the above are good reasons. abuse/overuse, i think is a huge part of it. also the stigma that psychedelic use is somehow "wrong" runs deep in society, and sooner or later it most likely WILL come up in your trips, whether you consciously deal with it or not. People use psychedelics for...

    Tripping in the rain

    no, but that is something i really want to do! i've been out in camping areas during trips with no one around _at all_ but fellow trippers.. so somewhat close I guess. When I'm far away from other people, that's really the only time I have no problem/worry doing the higher doses..
