Have you tried LSD?

What was it like?
I'm on a journey to open my mind with psychedelics 😊 tried mushrooms and salvia so far. Pretty incredible!

I think acid, like 'shrooms, are one of those things to do at least once if you approach it as a learning experience. I've only done it a few times, alone, and that's all I needed. My first time, when I was living in the Haight in San Francisco, I took two hits, walked down the street and started coming on. I was looking in a store window and my brain cracked open. Just standing there in bliss/wonder and two old hippies, right out of 60's central casting, came up to me and we're saying things like, "It's going to be amazing...have an incredible time...you're loved." They knew. Blew my mind. I hugged them and went off on incredible experience. They sent me on me on my way with what I needed. Pretty cool. I think it's all about the mindset going in.

@Ynotisay those hippies were likely on psychedelics too. Likely microdosing. There's a spiritual connection with others & when you have experience, you can literally feel what the other people in it are thinking & feeling. It's wild.
But I wouldn't say you only do it once. I'd say do it only when you're in a positive mindset & have questions you want answered. You can find yourself many times, not just once then that's it

@ChiefWalksWith40oz They might have been. They "knew." But this was a while ago before microdosing was a thing. So they were either high or recognized someone who's mind was exploding. :)
And I hear what you're saying about frequency. For me, I see that more with shrooms although it's been quite a while for me. I felt a diminishing return after a few times. It was more 'play." Nothing wrong with that but it just wasn't for me.
The one I can say you do just once is Iboga which is delivered as ibogaine. It's derived from a root in Africa that's used in "coming of age" ceremonies. I have a friend who's pretty prominent in that world where it's used as method of (literally) curing addiction. I wasn't addicted but she offered me the experience and I took it. Went to Mexico for it. Ten hours on my back, with my brain cracked open, watching a movie that played on a loop in my head. SO much more powerful than acid. I can still remember that loop. Things that didn't make sense at the time actually ended up coming true in some weird ways. A one-timer but I'm really glad I did. Haven't taken a hallucinogen since. No need. :)
