What will just one hit of acid do?

I don't know the exact amount. I got 10 hits. In the past I've always taken anywhere from 3-8 hits. I wondered if taking only one will have any affect or if I'd be wasting it.

It would probably (assuming the tabs are of decent quality) produce a mild trip.

Hmm, we use to put it under our eyes lids, if we were lucky we would come down in 16 hrs. or so. Mind you, it would be only one hit.

Well it's been a long time but back in the day 1 hit was plenty, 2 if you really wanted to go places.....

That day is long gone. Said as someone who does acid maybe once every 6 months, so no tolerance. And was loving it in the late 70s way too much.

The younger generation has been conditioned to accept doing multiple hits as the normal dosage. I have no idea when that happened, but it sucks.

So the people who sell it expect to sell multiples for a single trip, like carnival ride tickets.

That in turn means you need to buy enough for several trips, do a tester dose (1 or 2, depends on if you have friends that did it from the same batch and can rate it for you), and then have your real trip at least a week later.

And yes, while I remember the hits on the eyes, that was a LONG time ago, and I was a LOT stupider and who knows what the fuck is in today's mix. Too many chemists mixing too much stuff in non sterile environments. I'd keep it out of your eyes if I were you.

Yea this was liquid he dropped on some sour patch kids, so under the eye lids is out of the question.

But. Do they , dealers or whoever, cut it or are some batches just of a better quality than others.

Depends. Batches vary, sources vary, ratios vary, age varies, etc, etc. If you start with liquid, you can dilute and put it onto anything. If you are in the chain that gets the paper, you can't dilute sheets, but you can cut them into smaller doses and call each a "hit" if they aren't perforated.

Ok thanks man. Ive taken acid on several occasions but it was always like at festivals or a show or something and my friend would, as you said, take a test dose like a week before and I would just trust him to give me the right amount and it always turn out pretty fucking good. He would always say how much he was giving me like usually 4-5 hits.

No, cutting doesn't make sense with LSD as it's so potent it requires serious dilution before being sold to the end user. 100ug is like a small grain of salt or two. Generally it gets diluted pretty early on in the supply chain. Quality varies chemist to chemist and batch to batch based on several factors. The individuals skill, quality of precursors, sophistication of the setup, the amount of ambient light, the amount of effort put into purification. Generally if you have the talent and equipment to synth LSD you're doing a decent job at it, at least after you have done a batch or two. Ergotamine is hard to get and expensive, you make sure to do everything you can not to waste it.
One of the reasons that individual doses are smaller is that doses in the 60s and 70s were huge. 200-300ug a pop. People would freak out. In the period after the discovery of LSD's activity it was quite popular among the researchers at Sandoz in doses in the ballpark of 50ug. I'd rather need to take 10 than have others freak out from taking 1.

cutting only makes sense if you are a middle level dealer getting liquid that is like 300ug per drop... and you dilute it to 100ug per drop....

nobody cuts crystal lsd. that's blasphemy.

totally true about rather having to take 10 than people freaking out from one. that's a lot less attention from the law as well.

I really hate being the guy that has to take 10 though. some people still trip their face off from 2-3.... those would be the "freak outs" in the 60's

One hit can fry you into oblivion or make you barely reach threshold effects. If I were you I would split it in half, test it and see if it does anything. If you like the results, buy some more.

Yea I took half and nothing happened so after 1.5 hr i took another whole. I felt a slight change in my perception and like I was stoned, couch lock, but nothing that would come close to a trip.
How long should I wait to try again?

Dude! Sounds like some heavy equipment you guys are playing with! Better put your hard hats on lol. After reading through this I am not sure I'd be able to handle all that. Can't really talk though only tried it once. Seems like there's a lot of variables that come into play here. Also hearing about the back in the day stories man that stuff must had been powerful.

I realize that there are many variables to this situation and I can understand why you would want to use caution when advising someone on what dose of LSD to take. I am just trying to gather as much info as possible so I can know I'm being safe and still have an experiance So if you dont mind just give me your " well, if I was in your shoes......."

Thanks

If you had a little feeling (threshold is 20micrograms), I would suggest taking 4 or 5.

so you still have 7.5 hits left?

It was liquid dropped on candy?

hmm.... I would wait a week, then try 3. unless you want to pawn it off on someone else. which in that case you should be honest and tell them your experience.

You might have waited too long to redose the first time... I'm not sure. Every time I've redosed lucy, it doesn't do much except prolong my trip maybe. but i've never redosed only 1.5 hours in. I've tried to trip 2 consecutive days and it just didn't work unless taking a massive amount the next time.

I think you either got heavily diluted stuff, or maybe completely jipped altogether....

just wait a week or so, and try 3 at once. you said in the past you always did 3-8. everyone knows in the past lucy was stronger. you already tried some, so you know you aren't alergic or something. I hope you get some results! That would suck getting 10 hits of bunk.

could the effects you experienced be placebo? or is it unquestionable that you noticed something?

Yea that makes since. I think I might be being a little over cautious. I've never done it alone and Relied on the expertise of others when i did. Yea I still have 7.5 sour patch kids and I watched him drop it on them, it might have been water? , but I really don't think so.. I am thinking of waiting a week taking 3-3.5 that way I still have at least 4 for another go.
The other night I did have a real metally taste in my mouth I was thinking like I remembered that taste from prior trips but it has been a while.

LSD doesn't really have a taste. At least not at normal doses, there isn't really enough to taste. Liquid will usually taste like alcohol or DMSO. But not bitter.

The metal taste was more of like a side affect than the taste of the actual hit. That just tasted like a sour patch kid.
Lone more question then I'll leave you alone, I'm not one to get panic attacks or anxious but the few times I did feel like I was starting to loose control of it, and I will admit it scared the shit out of me, people would help me sit me down talk me through it and 2 min later I'm back in my one man rainbow circle. When alone what can I do if these unwanted feelings arise? What do you all do? I read valium might help? I dont have Valium.

You learn a chant or a mantra or a song and when you feel you are in trouble, you chant or mant or sing. Using chemicals to bail out of extraordinary experiences robs you of the essential point of the drug. They should be witheld for psychic breaks or worse - always remember that there is an end to it, now why would you hasten that end, especialy given that it is so rare?
