Acid

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
What kind of tabs are going round these days?
Going back about 7 years or so when i would take them occasionally, there were micro dots, purple hearts and super strawberries around at the time. Is this still pretty much the case? I have heard about people putting tabs on their eyes and that apparently damages the eyesight - so, why? That sounds a bit too desperate for a high to me..

    Yeah ther's still loadsa different tabs running round nowadays.
    been a while since I taken tabs so not sure if I'm up 2 date.
    Micordots r still around... real powerful specially the purple ones.. Bucks Fizz.. round me.. Strawberries have gone.. Simpsons r here... Dollar bills... Jesus tabs.. damn my memories going... Timothy Leories, well nice.. all I can rmember now... usually stick to liquid.

    Acid on eyeballs... yeah happens.. apparently it happened a lot in the 60's a mate of miones dad did it... It's the shortest route to the brain basically.. makes u come up real hard n quick. tho I never done it.. and yes as u can imagine if u've had strong acid on ur tongue... that klinda burns a bit.. imagine that on ur eye

    I've got a mate who puts trips on his eyes I was asking him about it and apparently he says that you start tripping straight away nearly and that you trip more than if you had taken it. He does swallow the trip afterwards though so he gets the full effects out of it.

    THe only trips I have had are rockets and red dragons, I bought the red dragons with a mate and we bought 200 off a dealer who had shit loads of them.
    I kept taking them until one night I shared abottle of vodka with the mate I bought them with cath, and I mean a big bottle of vodka not those stingy quarter ones, then we had a litre of frosty jacks cider each and later decided we would take two trips as well, we were all right at first we just giggled for hours and hours then my mum came home when she was supposed to be away for the weekend and caught us. She didnt know we were tripping coz we told her we were pissed. Then we had another and ended up walking up the middle of the roads at 3 in the morning with nothing on but t shirts (no underwear no shoes or socks) we went into the woods and were buzzing our tits off thinking we were in the garden of eden. Then we came back in and my mum was sat downstairs waiting for us, we went in and she told us she knew we were on something and bang, that was it, we legged it upstairs and pushed everything in front of my bedroom door so my mum couldnt get in and both went under. I was tripping like fuck off everything and thought it was the end of the world I was seriously contemplating commiting suicide, we rung the drugs helpline up off caths mobile crying to them telling them we were going under and what could we do, the woman was really nasty to us and ended up putting the phone downon us then we rung a mate who had trips often and woke him up he told us to have some fresh orange juice but we couldnt because we didnt have any so we sat in my room all night until we eventually fell asleep holding onto each other for dear life. We felt like shit the next day but were getting pissed again the next night.
    I dont know what I would have done if she wouldnt have stayed with me its a good job both of us felt we were going to be alright if we were together or else I would have ended up slitting my throat.
    I 've never had trips again and I dont intend to, it was the scariest thing that has ever happened to me.

    Anyway sorry that was so long I just thought Id share my experience with you.

    Hmmm no ones probably read this bit you probably all got bored half way through.

    Ok just read ur post...

    Sounds sooo familiar.. only different thing is that I used to love shit like that.. I loved getting freaked out on Acid.
    One of the best trips I ever had was when I had gone to get some acid, fairly fucked as it was... and a guy pulled a knife to my throat n proceded to nick my all important £8(trip money).. fortunately the ppl in the dealing house saw it n gave me the trips n said they would sort me out...
    But that night we were at a mates house n his dad came in at 3am n chucked us out...
    We ended up going down into this field.. on the way I kinda got lost n freaked out totally... totally flipped. The knife attack along with being alone(which u cant cope with on acid, u gotta b with some1 else tripping) made me flip... My mates eventually found me n got me back thinking bout summing alse.. we ended up lying on our backs freezing cold in the middle of a field.
    Allthought at the time it was fucked.. I always look back on it as 1 of the best trips I evcer had cos it was sooo fucked n the amount of emotion going through ur body just makes it soo good, no matter what kinda emotion it is.

    Dunno if u felt like this about ur trip or is it just me being twisted?

    Spirit, have more faith in yourself! I enjoyed reading that, cool. I actually used to quite enjoy taking them alone for the sensory experience. I would go somewhere really scenic on the bus, i'd take it before getting on the bus so that i wouldnt laugh at the driver and then half way through my journey i would see the cars changing shape etc..i would then go sit by the lake and watch the ducks and the trees swaying (not the ducks!), what was also really cool is that the airport was only five minutes away so it was a real rush getting planes flying over my head, i found it really relaxing as well, but i would only have one. when i used to take them with my friend we always used to spend all night in fits of giggles. WHat i d always enjoyed about acid was the strength that i had in myself to flow with it and the ability to see the world in a different light, through different eyes, I always knew more or less that however paranoid I got that that wasnt the way things were and that it was just the trip. What put me off was the last one that I had that lasted over ten hours and I lost control on that one because although i enjoyed it for the first six hours or so, i wanted to feel normal after that and i felt like i was imprisoned in my body. So, that was the last time that i took one. The orange juice, vit c does seem to help or at least it did me.

    Daze I used to feel the same as you when I first started on them, I just got so buzzed out at how fucked I was and I have lay in fields on them too just looking at the sky and listening to all the noises. But the last oone was a bad feeling of being fucked it just felt shit really really shit.

    I think tripping is such an amazing experience when its a good one and I think those of us who've tried it and have had a good time on it will all say were glad we have done it. I know for one that even though I had a shit time the last time and wil never do it again, I am thankful for some of the good times I had on it.

    J9 I think that the things I have been through have made me a stronger person and am glad I have had many of my experiences ( I only feel like that sometimes though). Then there are the other times I think my lie is shit and dont see the pont in any of it, but I guess we all have days like that eh!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yeah guess so Spirit... dont know n e 1 who wished they never done acid.
    But yeah guess some ppl do get fucked up by bad trips... guess u cant really understand till u've had a real bad 1.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yeah totally- I mean I don't do acid regularly now but I'm definitely glad that I've done it.
    Ok - whoever has done it do you guys feel though that after you first did it things weren't ever the same?? Nothing specific just a general difference? Maybe I"m just weird <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    I never really have thoughts like that.. always know ther's some1 worse off than u.... nothing to complain bout really.. if u look at ur problem... it's always small really n not worth worrying about..

    If that dont work u just smoke crack
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    there always was a big group of us that did acid and stuff.. everytime was a tradition to go out in the night (pure blackness), walking thru the forests and fields and stuff.. best way to trip tho...but also going into shops and stuff (tripping out) is also WELL funny.. i havnt done acid for about 2-3 years now tho..... never had a bad one tho... mind bending! hmmm...
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I no someone who wishes he had never done trips when he was younger. He was on em 24/7 and it totally f ucked with his head. He is now in a psychiatric hospital where he has completly lost the plot and suffers severe flashbacks and stuff.
    Ive had a couple of mad times on trips and Iloved em but the last time I took em was the worst and I never looked back. Admittedly I was on a lot of other stuff too which made the whole experience ten times worse. I remeber it very clearly even now and I wouldnt wish what I had on anyone...it was fucking awfull.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I know people who have had bad ones but not too bad and have taken them again but then theyve had really bad one and never touched them again. I think the severity of your bad trip determines whether you take them again. I only know people who have stopped taking them coz they went on to other things and thought trips were shit or had a really bad experience on them.

    Lolly - yeah 'bout the person you know, that's drug induced schizophrenia. Its very common from acid, it can also be from amphetamines as well. Scary stuff <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/eek.gif"&gt;

    A friend of a friend of a friend I heard about once used to take whizz all the time and he turned out to be schizofrenic and had to be sectioned or something like that.
    He really lost it.

    Yea...also known as drug induced psychosis which a lot of people I was in hospital with suffered from. Just goes to show that not everything about drugs is great...I mean I think Id regret taking them for the rest of my life if I was suffering like some of the poeple I have met. But its still wasnt enough for me to not take em and have a few good times...does make u think though!

    Like I said...I met a few people like this in hospital. Is very sad to think That they did it to themselves but it can happen to anyone cant it <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"&gt;

  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yeah totally, and its more common in people that have taken heaps and heaps but it can also just happen randomly to someone who's taken acid, speed etc. once. Even more scarey <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/eek.gif"&gt;
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Sure is matey!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    oh man.. im telling you when i took acid and shrooms.. it completely changed my perspective on life. it is like i was completely oblivious of everything before and then everything that is so true and real was just all shoved in my face at once and i had to deal with it all at once.. all the realities of life. I kinda wish that i was the way i was before i took that shit. i was so innocent and didnt think the way i do now. but i dont know what to think anymore.
    but when i had my really really bad trip, i was so scared of losing control of my mind becuz it is the only mind i have and i dont want to be stuck feeling that way all the time u know? my worst fear is being checked into a mental hospital because i went section 8.
