Oh God, I have such a love/hate relationship with adderal. Honestly, it got me through pretty much every exam week I had in college. But it also ... sucks balls.

Also, as short as a salvia trip, it is prittay, prittay fun

I've always preferred acid to shrooms. I could actually go for a nice day trip here shortly.

I never wanted to try acid....

The first time I did shrooms I was expecting it to be like I smoked 2 blunts to the head and I get to see cool ****. I was way off, caught me off guard how instense it was.

I found myself walking around in circle not knowing what I was doing, switching from thought to thought like a pinball racking up a high score. It went from feeling like I was in hell and that's what life was, to being in the bliss of understanding everything around me and feeling like I should love water like it was a person at one point because it sustained us ( I guess thats how I describe how I felt). I couldn't talk, everything sounded ok to me, but everything I spoke was just gibberish. I learned how to adjust the dose to my liking after that :P I really like the visuals it gives but the mind ****ing it something hard to deal with.

Acid is what 200X more powerful then shrooms? Naa am good Ill sticking my bong and joints and a occasional shroom trip if I want to experience profoundness. Plus when I first tried "drugs" I told myself I stick to Natural Things. For the part I have stuck to that besides the occasional self prescribed pill.

I never thought it was the vitamin connection even though I heard that, I understood it to be with orange Juice to be the acid in it helps digest the Mushies easier.

I also heard of people doing lemon Juice shots, But that doesn't sound to great.

Damn I double Posted

I keep telling my friends that it's supposed to be a better paced trip than shrooms, they're all sketched out because of the bullshit propaganda that's still floating around.

I still have quite a few things left on my "to try" list: acid, DMT, special K, woodrose seeds, mescaline/peyote & 2c derivatives. I'll get to them all eventually.

i don't know man...it is totally possible to OD on acid while it is impossible to on shrooms. i was totally keen on trying acid until my friend got a little too into it. he went away one summer and came back totally messed up. he was a strict vegan, didn't do any drugs including alcohol, and was convinced he was on a higher spiritual plane. turns out he took an intense amount of acid during the summer and the devil came and talked to him about how ****ed his life is.

obviously the devil didn't come to talk to him, but he was convinced and his state just degenerated from there. he was eventually convinced he didn't need food at all, he paced constantly all around campus freaking people out, and generally pulled a syd barrett and is now schizophrenic.

now i don't feel like doing acid so much.

Lesson learned there is schizophrenics shouldn't do drugs.... Alot of times mind altering drugs can trigger schizophrenia but dont cause it, it usually was going to happen anyway. You said college, thats about the age it comes out.

With that said I still don't plan to do Acid, I don't think I got the mind set to let go of everything and just enjoy it. Just sounds to intense. I mean my mom and dad told me some ****ed up **** that happened to them, sure they said it with a smile as they told the story of my Dad almost running over my mom with the truck. but ya know.......

You speak of love. K and mescaline are atop my list as well.

Acid isn't that different from shrooms. Having done shrooms, you're prepared enough for an acid trip. And no it's not 200 times more powerful in context of dosage. Yes, you'll be screwed if you eat an entire sheet of acid or drink an entire vial... but who would do that?
Just drop a single blotter and I guarantee you, especially with the dilution that goes on now days in comparison to back when your folks were dropping acid, you'll probably want to drop another blotter before the night is through.

The only negative thing about acid is it's hard to really know what kind of dose you're taking, but realistically, you can be sure that a single blotter hit isn't going to be the hell of a ride you're expecting it to be. In all likelihood, you'll probably be disappointed in the lack of potency and feel ripped off.

Also, you can always play it safe and cut it in half.

^ Couldn't have said it better myself.

Not to mention, a lot of the acid these days gets cut with speed, so there goes the good, natural-feeling cerebral part, and in comes a bit of teeth-grinding and lockjaw.
