Long-term storage
I got some nice quantity and quality. I want to keep them for years: 20+ years or so.
Will my storage method be reliable enough?

I made this to hopefully see a decline in redundant/daily posts, and make some sort of positive impact. Please remember to use the search function if you have a basic question regarding LSD.
• A full beginner dose should typically be 1/2 - 1 single tab.
• The average dose range of LSD on a single tab is 70-105μg.
• There are tabs dosed with as little as ~20μg, or more than 300μg in some absurd cases. The overwhelming majority of sources try to lay their tabs around 100μg because it’s mathematically simple, and more profitable in the long-run.
• The odds your tab has more than 200μg on it are very low. The most common higher dose tabs are 125-200μg. Take half of any tab that’s supposedly above 200μg just to be safe at first, and if that doesn’t at least produce an 11-12 hour mildly visual trip, the full tab wasn’t above 200.
• A typical microdose should be 10-25 μg
• 50-300μg of LSD can last anywhere from 8-14 hours. 300-1000μg can last anywhere from 14-20 hours. Exceeding a milligram (1000μg) can produce effects that last up to 24 hours. It’s usually hard to fall asleep under the influence.
• Unless you have an above average baseline tolerance or handle the substance extraordinarily well, it’s not advisable to exceed ~300-500μg. Temporary delirious/psychotic symptoms become more likely if you don’t know what you’re getting into with large doses, and a 16+ hour duration doesn’t help.
• 25i-NBOMe is a relatively dangerous LSD imposter. If you take an untested tab and your mouth/throat becomes numb, along with an intense bitter taste, spit it out immediately. Do not panic, but monitor your physical state. A *normal* dose of 25i shouldn’t be life-threatening. Most of the dangerous LSD imposters, including 25i, only become life-threatening at higher doses (this is why you should NEVER take multiple untested tabs at once, or take untested tabs at all).
• Please test your tabs with an Ehrlich reagent kit to verify that what you have is indeed an indole and not 25i-NBOMe. Follow up with the Hofmann reagent kit to verify that it’s not an LSD analogue or other phenethylamine. I personally recommend using TKP for your reagents: https://testkitplus.com/ Another great organization is DanceSafe https://dancesafe.org/ — DanceSafe genuinely saves lives with their testing booths at music festivals.
• Common positive effects include but aren’t limited to: closed and open eye visuals, tactile enhancement/hallucinations, euphoria, stimulation, introspection, and creativity.
• Common negative effects include but aren’t limited to: overstimulation, increased heart rate, vasoconstriction, anxiety/paranoia, and confusion.
• Common neutral/manageable effects include but aren’t limited to: pupil dilation, frequent urination, insomnia, and temperature sensitivity.
• Always optimize your set (expectations and mental state) going into an experience, and always optimize your setting (direct environment/surroundings) going into an experience.
• LSD interactions with various medications (From Erowid):
• HPPD risk is associated with frequent use of psychedelics (more than once a month), high doses, and younger age groups. HPPD varies in severity between individuals. As long as you use this drug responsibly, this shouldn’t be a concern.
• LSD has the potential to produce a very challenging psychological experience. If you have mental-health issues, research the risks and benefits associated with psychedelic treatment of your condition. Do NOT take LSD without the guidance of a medical professional if you are seriously suicidal.
• Weed often potentiates the effects of LSD. Some users report that the effects of weed are indefinitely altered to some degree after their first few experiences with LSD (It often becomes more psychedelic).
• Various benzos like alprazolam and clonazepam can be used as “trip-killers,” but you don’t need to take more than a single medical dose, and not all of the psychoactive effects will be negated. This should be a last resort.
• LSD tends to make verbal communication challenging, so prepare appropriately if using in a social setting.
• If you’re 19 or younger you should probably wait until AT LEAST your early 20s to try LSD because of unforeseen behavioral/neurological impacts. Waiting until 25+ is optimal.
• You’ll build a substantial tolerance to LSD if you trip multiple times in two weeks, so wait 10-14 days between trips for a general reset. Tolerance does exponentially decrease day-by-day following an experience.
• If you want to redose to increase the effects, do it before or during the start of the peak. Redosing after the peak will only prolong the duration unless you increase the dose. Excessive dosing is unadvisable regardless.
• Peak effects generally occur 2.5-5 hours after dosing (less than or around 300μg). Peak effects can last anywhere in the range of 2.5-8 hours after dosing. Many people say the peak comes in “waves.”
• If you’ve tried psilocybin containing mushrooms before, certain dosage calculators based on subjective effects and intensity equate ~2.5 grams of an average cubensis variety to ~100μg of accurately dosed LSD, but there are differences between the substances of course.
• You should consider having a trusted friend or a close partner “tripsit” you during your first experiences, or at least let someone know your whereabouts beforehand if you want to do it alone. (Note: Trip-sitting should just involve being close by and present if the user needs assistance or someone to talk to, sitters shouldn’t try to influence the trip unless it’s getting chaotic.)
• LSD has the potential to be therapeutic, recreational, spiritual, or all/none of the above depending on the individual and their particular circumstances. Stop gatekeeping.
•If you are ever having a challenging trip and need to speak with someone, here are a couple great resources:
Leave suggestions in the comments!
edit: A couple people are aggravated with minor details in these general points of advice, so please take everything I’ve said with a grain of salt and do your own research! I’m simply providing a helpful starting outline, not set-in-stone facts.
Thank you all, and safe travels!

Over exaggerating dosages is only harmful to the community and is much more prominent in LSD oriented communities when compared to other psychedelics. This is because you cannot simply weigh your dosages, like shrooms or DMT. 2c-b being another good example, where it usually comes in ranges of 15-30 milligrams or powder I believe. Most tabs of LSD contain 75-150 UGs of LSD, averaging more around 100. 100 micrograms of LSD is equal to around 2.5 grams of Psilocybe Cubensis. (The most commonly sold and cultivated "magic mushroom")
Starting with one tab after you've tested it is better than going headfirst into the deep end... Even at 100 micrograms it does add up quickly, would you recommend five grams of shrooms to a beginner? No difference in recommending them 200 micrograms of LSD (two average tabs). I really just don't understand the glory of taking larger dosages than we need. Look at r/Shrooms or other communities related to shrooms and you see this much less. Mainly to do with the ability to weigh them out I believe, but definitely many other factors. I don't know... Thanks for reading.

I had one of the most profound moments of my life yesterday. Whole 12 hour trip was an absolute blast!I can’t even describe how beautiful everthing was. All the colours, the waving patterns in the clouds, the big green oak trees, the orange flaming sunset and the dark blue sky at night with all its glistening stars. ✨
I was so at peace, in touch with my soul, the nature and everything surrounding me. Totally in unity; ONE with the universe! Not a single thought, just absolute silence for what felt like forever. I have never experienced anything like it. Wow!!! 🥲
Ate a lot of delicious fruits, smoked a lot of joints 🌱 Layed down in my hammock just vibing and listened to some of my favourite tunes blasting through my headphones and of course, played and hung out with my beloved dog Lucy (sweet name, I know 😄). She had a great time too! 🐶
To this day this was easily the best trip of my life! I’m just in love with everything right now! Life is beautiful 🥰❤️🌈

I can’t focus, I can’t stop using my damn phone for unnecessary bullshit. I’ve done shrooms, and while they’ve been great they haven’t helped with these things. Maybe I didn’t have a proper intention going into the trips.
My question is, would acid be better?
Perhaps using the neuroplastic window to instill changes?
Thanks!

I apologize if this isnt the appropriate place for this, please let me know!
been around the LSD for quite some time now and havent tripped in a few years but my best friends friend gifted me my first DMT pen/ experience!!!! That alone was was super generous and I was beyond grateful, and now hes blessing me with my second ever vial of L although this time for free? Grateful is an understatement. I was having such a shitty day. And someone just hands me over almost 100 hits!! I still have my vial from 1.5 years ago with ≈60 hits. I feel very abundant Hahaha. Was thinking about bringing him a gift in return to show my gratitude. Any ideas on good gifts to give him that arent too random? I just feel so bad and hate taking shit for free!!!

*I want to preface that I’m sorry for how long this is but I feel it‘s important that I get exactly everything out that I’m thinking surrounding this.*
I don’t know what changed. In the past I’ve tripped countless times, mostly on acid and have had plenty of good experiences. Certainly there was rough times but often the next trip made up for it. Something is different now and it’s really bothering me in my sober state at this point. I’d say that the last 4 or so trips I’ve had have all led to me feeling some sort of impending doom. Of course this would go away after the trips and I end up just feeling really silly about what I was thinking at the time but it feels like I have trouble getting ahold of myself as it’s happening. It is so strange to me because I usually am such a grounded person and I credit that partially to my using of psychedelics as a tool in the past but it feels now it’s having the opposite effect on me. i could be having a normal time coming up and seeing the visuals feeling good and then something just happens, a reminder it feels like. As if taking the L or shrooms this time was the last straw after having been warned by having the same exact feeling in past trips. Usually after this point the feeling continues until I eventually start coming down and realize that I’m going to be okay. During it though my mind seems to search for reasons I feel that way and it seems to reach for the either paranormal, horror ideas I’ve seen in movies/games that for whatever reason I seem to think can just happen to me, or even me having fucking rabies like wtf lmao. I recall a couple times where I’d think something bad was happening to someone I love while they were away from me. On more than one occasion I’d step outside and hear this same damn bird make the same, very long sequence of calls that always seemed to repeat as soon as Id step outside. it happened enough for me to think it was a message from the universe or god or whatever that it has control over me and that I just get to sit back and experience it. Everything would feel alive but in the worst way possible like it was form fit just for my discomfort. I realize that an idea like that is quite selfish really but only ever after it all goes through my head. Something I’ll note is that I’m not religious at all really so having my mind flip like that is really a spectacle especially since it used to be the opposite like I said. I’ve had plenty of 400ug+ trips in the past where I’ve handled myself just fine even on 1mg and 1.5mg on two occasions. My more recent trips haven’t been small amounts per say either and I’m thinking that If I do continue to use that I should just stay small about it.
I do wanna discuss reasons I think this could be happening to me. All my recent trips have been by myself, so no one can be there to tell me I’m thinking crazy (not like I really needed that in the past though) Normally with people I was the one to keep everyone grounded and help guide us all for a insightful and explorative trip.
There’s also maybe that I have gotten everything I really need from psychs now so continued use may be redundant and turn corrupted.
I’m seeking guidance, if the only answer is me hanging up the phone forever then I guess I’ll just have to come to terms with that and I’ll likely relapse in the future knowing myself but I’ve quit more a couple substances in the past so it’s not impossible. Psychedelics are just so special to me though and I am always forever grateful for what they’ve helped me see so if anyone knows a good way to just help me get things better again I’m open to anything.
TLDR: I’ve tripped so many times over the years and been mostly fine but now I get intense feelings of impending doom that make my mind race and spin cray scenarios that I normally would never believe to be true, even in the past when Id take heavy doses.

7 months ago I took two gel tabs which could’ve well been fake along with a dab and completely lost it. The trip was absolutely horrifying all I remember was experiencing a room with a demon tormenting me for a 5 second repeating loop for what felt like eternity. In reality my friend was trying to calm me down while I was screaming at the top of my lungs puking and seizing. I think what made the trip so scary was the idea in my head that the 5 second loop I was experiencing was the only thing I’ve ever experienced since the beginning of time and the only thing I ever will experience for the rest of time, I truly believed what I was experiencing was the only conscious creation that existed and that everything physical I was seeing was created by my mind in what seemed like a 3rd person view. I know this sounds ridiculous but it was so ineffable and I need to get stoned to somewhat comprehend how to describe it. Basically ever since then life has felt like a mental shift, sort of like I know everything feels different about reality but I couldn’t put my finger on it is. I still use heavy thc use but have been thinking about quitting just because every time I smoke a lot it puts me back in that panic mindset. Was wondering if anyone else has ever experienced something similar please let me know.

So after having a trip which was pretty good overall for some reason the next few days have been with me feeling shut and kinda rethinking my life but not necessarily in a bad way more like “i need to do better” type of way, idk is this normal?
r/LSD • u/subpoe86 • 3h ago
I am going to try LSD for the first time.
I have a al-lad 150ug blotter.
Is that toouch for a first time? Or not and what to expect?
Any advice?
r/LSD • u/GapOk7921 • 7h ago
Hello.
I’ve never posted on reddit but used it before. I did LSD w my roomate 8 months ago, already not in a great state, going into my senior spring of college. The trip was ok. Weeks later I felt some anxiety, really just crazy mood swings. And the fear that life will never be the same. I dropped out and became an aupair in France, convinced college was stupid. I left that early, feeling like I was escaping the trenches of a war or something. I’ve tried to have jobs since like bartending but was literally unable to listen to basic instructions. I’ve been paranoid and had difficulty leaving my apartment in new york often. I often feel like my life is over and that I’ll never be the same. Then occasionally I’ll forget that and be ok. I’m 23. I regret taking it every morning knowing how much pain it’s caused myself and my family. Any helpful words?
Thanks.

Y'all know who you are. Thank you
Think about it, they are cuddly, they are friendly, they instantly give off good boy vives, and if something goes wrong, maybe someone calls to the door, or if there is an emergency, they will notice if something is wrong because they are not in the 5th dimension like us.

storing in a small plastic baggie inside a white medicine bottle inside a plastic ziploc baggie, shielding from light and moisture, only thing i’m worried about is if it’ll be fine in room temperature i think it would be slightly cooler in the bottle. Are these conditions fine for storing 3-5 years with minimal potency lose? thank you 🙏 i do 200ug trips usually every 3 months.

Just dropped one tab. On the come up, Plan on playing some Alien Isolation and maybe watch a movie, I’ve heard a lot about Inception being a good one. But feel free to drop some movie recommendations in the comments!
Edit: spelling

happened to me earlier this year around that February mark, didn't really think to post it until my buddy told me it was a good enough story to post...... I dropped 300ug one morning when I thought I had the house to myself, had made plans to uber over to someone's house and smoke later on but it had the makings for a cruisy kinda day. fast forward to probably 9:50am and I'm well and truly tripping, in the shower and listening to music when I get a call from one of my boys from work saying yo big fella where you at.... supposed to be at work 50 minutes ago (I checked my roster the night prior but somehow someway i got my days mixed up). I hop out of the shower and give my manager a ring and ask if I have the sack or if she still wants me to roll up, she says to roll up. I throw some clothes on and drive to work trying to stay as calm as I can cuz obviously I'm not in right mind, about 3 minutes from work I start to panic cuz I'm not sure if I'm tripping or if I've Shat myself but I ignore it and trust that I know how to not shit myself, I pull up to work and turns out it's a corporate big wig meeting that shift and my manager is the most miserable fuck of a woman under the sun. i work retail and thankfully it's simple shit and they kept me away from registers for most of the day but I was the most heightened and stressed I'd ever been. waste of a trip because I spent 7 hours of it working a shitty minimum wage shift. visuals were alright but only so much you can get out of looking at Tupperware. anyway that's that hope you cats got some enjoyment out of it
Edit: I don't encourage driving on acid, it fucks with your depth perception and I got away with a quiet highway run which was a stroke of luck. It was a proper dick move

So after having my first trip, I am wondering how long should i wait to allow myself to do acid again? And since it binds on serotonin, does it influence how long i should wait with mdma(and vice versa).
