My first and only LSD trip

[Big Calhoun]

Not that it was all that exciting, but it was what I had expected. It was a long time ago...It all started, yesterday...j/k

Back in college, I had tried some acid but it was kind of effed up the way it went down. There was kid that one of our roommates and the rest of us were cool with but he lived in a different dorm. One weekend, this kid and the one roommate he was tight with breaks into our suite and starts stealing shit...stereos, TVs, video game systems, etc. So after all of that blew over, one of my roommates and I broke into his room to get even and we ended up stealing some 'triple dipped' acid he had just gotten. So, just the background.

So one weekend, I decided I was going to do this. Everyone says you shouldn't trip alone, especially on your first experience, but I decided to brave hit. So I dropped two hits and sucked down two small bottles of orange juice cause people said vitamin C increases the high. Well, like 45 minutes goes by and nothing. I can feel something going on, but I'm not trippin and no visuals. So I decided to smoke some weed and did a bowl from a bong...well....

I'm sitting in bed and all of a sudden I hear this 'sizzling' sound and I'm like WTF. I look up at the walls and they were like 'fading' and disappearing, so I'm like 'oh shit, it's about to be on'. So for the next hour or so, walls and doors are disappearing and I'm just amazed by the effects. After about an hour, things kind of mellowed...or did they...

Things were in their proper perspective but now the hallucinations started setting in. The first occured with a gigantic poster of Bob Marley I had on my door. It looked like all of a sudden he turned away from the stage towards me and we just started talking. I packed another bowl in the bong and I was offering it to him and I swear he took a hit or two. So after a while, our conversation was done and felt like he just told me a world of knowledge. Then I turn back to the TV and was watching Colombo...except it wasn't on the TV, it was like in 3-D in front of my face. I remember pointing to stuff and saying "No, check here, check this" and doing all kinds of freaky shit. So that episode ended, which was probably the best episode I ever 'watched', and I decide I need to venture out and get some food. So I get dressed and I hear a knock at the door. Open the door and it's my parents standing there asking if I was high, what the hell was I doing, yadda yadda yadda. After 15 minutes of pleading with them, I finally figured out it was all in my head.

So I go to the local diner and get my fav, veal parm and spaghetti, and decide I didn't want to go back to my room. So I walked around campus trying to find anyone that was hanging out for the weekend. Ran into my friend Jay who decided not to go home. So we went back to his room and chilled with a couple of his roommates. I just remember giggling at everything and he's like, "Are you high again" and I'm like "No, I'm trippin mannnnnnn". So now he starts fucking with me. He starts 'tickling' me only he's not really touching me, just moving his fingers in the air but it felt ticklish. It got so bad I had to leave the room for a minute. So then I come back and he starts doing this echoing thing when he's talking to me and everything he said had a serious echo to it. It was great. We ended up playing some video games and stuff and it was like 4 something in the morning and I was like, "I gotta get back to my room". So I go back to my room and it feels like things are calming down. On the way back to my room, every light had a different color hue to it. It was freaky...incidentally, that 'hue' around lights didn't leave until just a couple of years ago. But anywho, I get dressed for bed and turn out the lights. All of a sudden, I see smurfs jumping out of my desk and running around. I just remember saying, "Oh shit, this is great". Finally, I turned on my computer and there was this program out called 'Acid Trip' or something like that. It displayed random colored images with funky effects on them. I just gazed at that and ended up passing out. All in all it was good stuff.

Haven't done acid again. At this age, don't think I would, but I am grateful for the experience.

That, by far, sounds like the best part of your trip, to me anyway. Not that I'm a huge marley fan (he's real good an' all) but that just seems like it would be cool as hell to actually think you were smoking and talking with a goddamn poster! Now I really wanna try cid. I think I'm going to actually make it a point to get a Bob Marley poster before hand.

friendowl you would really consider that a mild dose? That sounds like a hell of a trip to me, then again I've never dropped.

Dude. Acid is something I've just GOT to try. I mean, I'm fucking anxious to check the shit out. I'm still a little newbie since all I've done is weed, ODed on Wellbutrin, and Freon. The last two are kiddy shit I know, which is why I want to get hit hard. I'm honestly willing to risk a bad trip, I just want to feel what it's like to hallucinate.

I wish I had your courage. I know if I started going through that shit for the first time I'd probably freak xD.

The Big C's description was very accurate, IF you have "good" stuff. Posters moving around happened to me, in the distant past when I did it. Actually, Mescaline is even more hallucinogenic. Acid is more cerebral, and happy. Of course, a large dose of good LSD will trip you out of your mind - for better or worse. It's a good idea to have some weed, or hash, around for the end of the trip - it can "revive" it, if you're still awake.

It wouldn't have become so hugely popular in the 60's if people didn't enjoy it. The "vibe" is indescribable, when things go right.

I do have to question the quality of a lot of the stuff that's around today, based on what I read here about experiences. I'd also probably want to have some thorazine handy if I tripped these days, just in case. Chances are it would be OK, though.

I NEVER hear anything about synthetic mescaline anymore. That shit is great, also - more "dramatic", if you will, than LSD, and more "physical".
