    There are two essential parts that make an LSD experience special for me: the secret and the portal. As for the first, it's as though some forbidden knowledge is on the tip of my tongue, but the moment I try to find the words to speak it aloud, they disappear from my mind, leaving me with only a vague impression of something cosmically important but which is perhaps better left unsaid. Externally, I feel as though I might grab any point in spacetime and tear reality asunder, stepping through into something else. Existing this way all the time would be unbearable, but I would gladly subject myself to that lifestyle if I had a reliable supply and unlimited money.

    Do you write trip reports for yourself or others? What recurring ideas are present in your trips?

    I don't think there's really any good way to talk about psychedelic experiences that don't end up sounding pretty dumb. I mean maybe not categorically, I like Huxley's writing, but I sure as hell can't do it. Like you pointed out the experience of feeling like you know something really important and then just completely losing it when trying to stick it together in words.

    I do like to keep some notes during a trip for my own benefit. I find they never really express anything meaningful when I come back to them a week later, but when I totally lose my sense of time or feel disoriented I find reading what I wrote about "the olive incident" or whatever seemed super important from a few minutes ago can help me understand why I've spent the last million years in spider heaven.

    The connectedness & simultaneous disconnectedness with my emotions. I remember hearing a story about a guy whose wife cheated on him with his best friend and they ended up getting married, and I was like duh, that makes perfect sense!

    Once you get that there's no magic left at the end of the old 1 hit acid fallacy by taking an extremely high, there's not much point in taking them anymore.

    Experiencing all possible experiences all at once has a way of removing the acid blinders

    This guy is an annoying fuckhead, I'm pretty sure I'd end up beating him stupid if I did a trip with him. But he does get those visuals pretty spot on.



    I seriously recommend skipping the first 20 minutes or so. Last 10 is the best part.

    Yeah, barely. If you take a half hit maybe.

    I tripped in the winter with mounds of snow all over and that was perfect. Watching huge drifts of snow bounding up and back unto themselves. I have a distinct visual of millions of snow particles gently blowing off of a big piece that is the prima donna acid visual for me.

    When I took it I usually had like a sleeve of some ancient text inscribed all over my arms and hands, and looking at the sky I saw this huge dome of like mayan gods overhead.

    Also I took a walk by soybean fields and there were big spinning cabbage like things flying straight up high into the sky. Acid fireworks and sidewalk dungeons are pretty cool. The fireworks take my breath away in a way that nothing else can. Walking by a car passing by me down the dirt road was scary acid walking. Thought I was gonna get caught tripping.

    A raccoon walked up to me and smelled my foot as I was relaxing in a patio chair, and that still scares me as he looked funky as hell and a raccoon walking right up to you is never a good sign. There were ants everywhere in the patio and I was bit to hell. Rolling grass and trees is nice.

    I came out of the benzo fog and first really noticed my migraines on acid and decided to get off xanax when I was on lsd, which was the best decision of my life.
