Will there be a tendency for those who depend on LSD for inspiration to increase their dosage over time? Is there any chance that at some point they'll become delusional and candidates to commit workplace violence?

I ask because I've never researched the topic.

LSD effacy doesn’t decline with use but the user may get less susceptible to the negative potentials

Panic attacks for example

Conversely the spacing out effect could easily increase

Someone up thread said a doc they know has taken 400 trips but still advises stay away from it

It’s been 40 years since my last of 50-100 LSD Mushroom and peyote uses and I feel the same way and constantly lecture my kids as such

Even though my own memories range from outright panic to waves of joy and self realization I have seen many burnout and have dramatic personality shifts from just ONE big trip

We had some homemade LSD from Millsaps college in 73 and it did just that to one of my buddies...the dose was off the charts ...we just hung on as it got bigger and bigger and unfolded

Who funny enough he now overseas a major IT program at a huge medical complex

It didn’t necessarily harm him but he went from loud and sardonic to quiet and reserved on a dime permanently

It for sure blasts the cobwebs out

But it can also ring the self doubt bell

It doesn’t mix well with conformity but it’s been enjoyed by traditionalists just the same

Hoffman and Disney come to mind

It’s like combat prison divorce death of a spouse etc

You can’t explain what it’s like till you’ve done it

Everything else is just subjective cliche

If I liked it I wouldn’t have quit in 77

I don’t know, acid is kind of a weird drug. When you take it, it hits really hard after an hour, that peak last around 4-8 hours or so, then it levels off and last maybe another 4-5 hours.

Then it seems like an instant immunity builds in the body, and you cannot experience that again for at least 5 days. 7 days is better.

But as far as increasing doses go, if you try to take it again before waiting for that immunity to wear off, it really doesn’t matter how much you take, it won’t work. it’s like a dud firecracker.

If you take increased doses it just makes that initial peak period far more intense, but generally, the length of the entire trip is still the same.

But it gets to a point where if you did take too much, you are just tripping too damn hard and it’s not really a good time.

Many years ago when I was about 18, some friends of mine and I picked about 3 glad trash bags full of cowfield shrooms and made purple iced tea out of those.

That tea was so potent, it made acid look like amateur hour. The trip made 2 hours seem like 2 weeks in another world all together.

This was really not one of the brighter things I’ve done.

We had about 4 people picking poop shrooms. If one person had screwed up and picked a Destroying Angel and put it in the bags, everyone would be dead.

My guardian angel must have really been shaking his head at me that day >_>
