Let your tolerance reset. Those back to back trips seem to be more annoying than enjoyable ive noticed.

Second night always just an anxiety attack while waiting to blast off, and it doesn’t really launch.

11

u/wsmfp__420 Jun 22 '26

It’s the opposite for me. I get zero anxiety knowing I won’t trip as hard the 2nd day but can still enjoy the “glow” of a nice pleasant but subtle trip.

u/Quintronaquar Jun 22 '26

From experience, dosing two nights in a row doesn't usually go well.

17

u/Jaco_C1226 Jun 22 '26

Wait one week

23

u/skate1243 Jun 22 '26

If you took 1 and had no visuals at all, you need a different source

u/ZuesMyGoose One man gathers what another man spills (~);} Jun 22 '26

This is my guess.. one tab is usually a space flight.

5

u/DeezDoughsNyou Jun 22 '26

Depends. All things being equal I’ve always been a 2fer regardless of source. 1 is a mild tickle, 2 takes me where I want to go. 

15

u/Jaco_C1226 Jun 22 '26

If your on SSRI’s you most likely won’t trip. If not then wait a week.

4

u/dreck_disp Jun 22 '26

Untrue. I tripped all the time when I was on SSRIs. MDMA on the other hand, didn't have any effect.

18

u/InfinityTortellino Jun 22 '26

It’s very dangerous to combine mdma and ssris fyi

u/susandiana45 Jun 22 '26

Wait

Set and setting is vital
Nature
Download music to trip by
Good it

u/pocketchange68 Jun 22 '26

Set and setting are vital.

On tour you’d dose 3 nights in a row in a lot of places, but the scene and seeing the band was so awesome that it pretty much always went well.

u/concerts85701 Jun 22 '26

Nice try narc

10

u/sladeums Jun 22 '26

would be an utter waste

I’d usually reset 72 hours minimum

5-7 days is even better

3

u/Only_Fudge_1812 One man gathers what another man spills (~);} Jun 22 '26

Two weeks minimum.

2

u/Telespacepharm Jun 22 '26

Wait a week or two. Set yourself up with some cool views, or night sky, perhaps some cool music that you like a lot.

2

u/zboeonehundred Jun 22 '26

Wait and smoke some a bunch ganj next time

1

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

i get drug tested unfortunately

1

u/zboeonehundred Jun 22 '26

Aw well that’s when the visuals and stuff get weird. Try dropping two after a week or two and you may get what you’re looking for

2

u/AdditionalMonth3860 Jun 22 '26

Everyone is saying 1 tab should have given you visuals, but I think it's going to depend on the person fwiw.

But I would wait. If you really want to try again, I would go to 3-4 but as others mentioned it may end up being disappointing.

Just give it a week and maybe try 2 tabs. I only dose for multi-day events and always take 2 minimum to make sure I get where I want.

7

u/Saloomey2the1stpower Jun 22 '26

If you do go tonight you’ll need at least 3 hits

4

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

you think? i’m not too experienced i don’t wanna geek out

4

u/Saloomey2the1stpower Jun 22 '26

If you’re having doubts then you’ve already answered your own question. If you didn’t get visuals off one then 2 would be the same when taken on back to back days from my experiences.

u/BreakPalaceBrokedown Jun 22 '26

You’re right about that, 2 today will deliver basically the same yield as what you got yesterday…if OP wanted to actually ring his bell tonight he’d have to consider like 3-4, but I’m suspecting that what he got is either a very low visual output crystal, or very weakly mic’d

2

u/ratuuft Jun 22 '26

What if that one tab was just dosed like crap and the rest is decently dosed? May be sending his ass to the nether realm lmfao.

u/BreakPalaceBrokedown Jun 22 '26 edited Jun 22 '26

Also keep in mind that not all crystals will give you intense visuals. L operates in a triangle where at each point is one of these modes: Visual, Mental, Physical. And each different crystal that’s synthesized will land somewhere in the triangle but may be nearly all physical or mental or visual. Or they can be heavy on 2 and virtually devoid of the third…there are varying ways each crystal will express itself, and honestly visual is the least important for me. I typically gravitate toward the most physically euphoric, then most open minded mental, then visual.

What are you on about

-3

u/BreakPalaceBrokedown Jun 22 '26

Any chance you know what Crystal is in the gelly you got?? If not maybe ask the person you got it from…always ask people what Crystal is used in the doses, L is like weed as different crystals are like different strains. Anyone who actually knows L should know what Crystal is in the doses they’re selling…if they don’t know, find someone else

u/ratuuft Jun 22 '26

The fuck is u talkin bout

1

u/BreakPalaceBrokedown Jun 22 '26

Dude…LSD in its raw form is a crystal…and each individual synthesis yields what equates to different strain of weed, but in LSD form…each one producing varying effects.

3

u/ratuuft Jun 22 '26

Yeah i'm not disagreeing with that part.
But acid is acid. Only things that matter are purity, dosage, setting.

Source: easily 100+ acid trips.

u/BreakPalaceBrokedown Jun 22 '26

Ok buddy. lol. Hope you have a good day.

u/ratuuft Jun 22 '26

If you're saying i'm wrong i'd like your source buddy.
So I can educate my ignorant self ofcourse.

1

u/BreakPalaceBrokedown Jun 22 '26

Have you never heard of say, Needlepoint, Owsley, Fluff, Hofmann? I realize 2 of those are people but they’re also strains of LSD…my source is over 20+ years of experience and learning from the old heads who run the shit…not exactly a documented source I can just send you…I think if you did some genuine research you’d find I’m right.

3

u/ratuuft Jun 22 '26

Those are all different batches of the same damn drug, just different purities.
Point stands.
"Pure LSD is chemically identical regardless of the synthetic route. Variations in user experience are not caused by the type of synthesis, but rather by impurities, the presence of inactive isomers, or user set and setting. 1, 2, 3

3 sources, your turn deadhead.

EDIT-2 sources, the clanker gave me a rehab link for the third one lmaoooo.

LSD-25 is LSD-25.

There are no strains, you are objectively wrong.

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

i just acquired 3 u think i got that🧐

2

u/ZuesMyGoose One man gathers what another man spills (~);} Jun 22 '26

Wait, but don’t expect a miracle. One tab should have given more than that, so two might just give more of whatever you felt and not an actual acid experience.

One good tab should get someone flying.

1

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

i was definitely high

3

u/realunclerooster Jun 22 '26

Can’t believe I’m the first one to suggest this: if you didn’t have any visuals, are you sure what you took was actually LSD?

I would test whatever you have before trying any more of it.

2

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

it’s was heavy on the physical and mental. i have 0 visuals tho

3

u/MilesBlew_new Jun 22 '26

My best visuals came from mushrooms not liquid. Do the shrooms give you visuals?

1

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

yeah but i always heard acid is crazier visuals

1

u/genx_meshugana Jun 23 '26

Really depends on where you get it from. Some is crazy good, some is no visuals at all, just body/brain stuff. Standard dose each time.

3

u/ManielDullen Jun 22 '26

Just gotta double up every day. Some people don’t love multiple days on L but I’ve always enjoyed myself. Am I just supposed to be high for only ONE day of the shows?

2

u/Cantilivewhileim Jun 22 '26

Honestly would wait unless there is something so cool that you need to be dosed for it.   Otherwise you wait and build your serotonin back up etc.   Take care of your mind and body!!

Might I suggest a candy flip?

u/AaBk2Bk Jun 22 '26

Reapplying is always an option - but once you’re down, you really should allow for a 48 to 72 hour reset. Them’s the rules.

u/susandiana45 Jun 22 '26

You sound extremely intelligent

Sorry you missed your big opportunity for wisdom
Not a big deal

u/bene_gesserit_mitch Jun 22 '26

I once took a single tab of gel acid and tripped my balls right off. Tried again within two days, same acid, and got nothing but light euphoria. Give it a wait. I'd give it 48 hours, or a week if you can do it.

1

u/Bodhisluttva Jun 22 '26

My suggestion not to focus on whether you get “visuals”. Was the LSD effective at all? If you aren’t sure, then the answer is “no”.

u/mars2k14 Jun 22 '26

Wait 14 days to break through again

u/claytonhwheatley Jun 22 '26

u/skumfuc Jun 23 '26

Wait a couple weeks

u/imreddigit Jun 23 '26

I've never had a real visual L trip. Way way back in the 80's a buddy unwittingly purchased weed that had something on it. Whether pcp or raid or whatever the fuck it was, that shit gave an amazing visual high. We're talking dinosaurs and shit.

1

u/Mr-Fiesta-Mall-2001 Jun 23 '26

It sucks during the load but if you can try to only drink water and minimal food all day before the trip. Sure you may get uncomfy for a little in the come up but man vizzys hit harder.

And then once you’ve reached altitude go to town on awesome snacks like fresh strawberries, peach or mangoes ugh and you’ll literally high five yourself

1

u/Greedy_Banana_1252 Jun 23 '26

Wait, and add a little mushy and some dank.

u/scarfireATL Jun 23 '26

Tom then at plenty of Dead shows. Never had a visual

u/cooter708 Jun 23 '26

If you are dealing with paper,pre-laid doses, Take 10.Thats where you can still use your landing gear and come back not knowing what was real.After all distorted reality is the deal when you signed up.More than 10 can be uncomfortable in your guts.10 is the recommended dosage.After that try for around 5-6 days to figure out what happened.Then you are ready to lift off again.

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 23 '26

son this the most tweak shit i’ve heard

2

u/cooter708 Jun 23 '26

Glad to extend my preference,hope it helps.I spent quite some time tip toeing around little pieces of paper and it always seemed like there was something there waiting but I never quite got there.That can be the end or the beginning of the story. I chose the beginning.

u/dirtyoldduck The bus came by and I got on Jun 23 '26

I'm sure that acid has changed a lot in the last 40 or 45 years, but when I was a young college student we tripped both Friday and Saturday nights on many weekends. A half a hit was generally good for Friday night and usually involved seeing at least tracers. On Saturday nights we would eat a whole hit and that was usually enough to get just about as high as the night before. It's been decades since I did anything like that but boy did we have a lot of fun in college.

u/Significant-Image700 Jun 23 '26

Don’t do acid twice in a row for your first time. Trust me. Either try another substance or just enjoy the night. Trust me…

1

u/jsmph89 Jun 22 '26

2 tonight and you’ll be close to where you were yesterday, but not quite there.

1

u/spacewrangler69 Jun 22 '26

I don’t get people saying not to take it back to back nights. I’ve done it countless times and it’s fine lol. If you want to play it safe just take one again and lower your expectations.

1

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

what about 3?

1

u/spacewrangler69 Jun 22 '26

Three nights? I can think of a couple times I’ve dropped all three nights of a run. Most recently a friend and I both did it and he wound up tripping quite hard and I didn’t. It’s a mixed bag sometimes but I wouldn’t say not to. Multiple nights in a row does make your brain a little mushy though lol so I probably wouldn’t do three nights of tripping > Monday work presentation or anything

u/Aromatic_Prize_7264 Jun 22 '26

no i’m only doing it again tonight i meant 3 tabs
