Hey guys I just had a horrible LSD trip and need all the help and advice I can get.I will type out my full story if you feel I am missing any important information please ask as I want the best advice possible.I’ll start with my first LSD trip ever, 2013 was the worst year of my life, The girl of my dreams wanted nothing to do with me, I hated my job, drifted apart from all my friends basically had nothing to look forward to.
I went to this music festival the first week of 2014 and made a new friend who sold lsd, he was trying to convince me to take it the first two days but I refused saying I was too scared and it wasn’t for me, on the 3rd day I decided to just say fuck it and try it and it was the best decision I ever made, I had an amazing life changing trip, not only did me and him become friends I made so many other friends at the festival and at point I knew 2014 was going to be my year.
I kept telling everyone back home that LSD was life changing and the greatest thing I’ve ever done. 2014 was an amazing year for me, made awesome new friends, got a car, started liking my job more, and improved relations with my family.
I took LSD 4 more times in 2014 3 were amazing trips as I took them with people from the festival, one of them was actually not so good, not a horrible trip but I took it with my high school friends and it was just a weird trip and I couldn’t sleep at all while my friends had no issues passing out.
That is my LSD history, now comes the part about the horrible trip, I was going back to the festival where it all started this past week, now I was going with all the new friends I had made and was super excited, The day before the festival at the pre party I meet a girl who says she has some amazing acid, she does say to be careful with it and only take one hit which I thought was weird because usually I can handle at least 2 but I told her I’m not taking it until the festival begins.
After a while I change my mind and decide to just do it at the pre party, so I take a hit, it had a picture of 3 faces on the sheet. The trip started out amazing I was seeing myself living everything I had ever dreamed off, I felt like I was celebrating my amazing year right before my eyes, then everyone started calling it a night early as the festival started tomorrow and I was still tripping so hard I wasn’t ready, luckily I had a place to stay.
When I got there everyone was getting ready for bed and thats when my horrible trip began, I started becoming depressed like I wasn’t allowed to enjoy life anymore, I felt like I wasn’t supposed to go this festival and that I shouldn’t have this group of friends who I love so much, I couldn’t sleep for a second no matter how hard I tried and just had nothing but negative thoughts.
The next day when the festival started I was so depressed, like I knew how excited and happy I was but my mind just couldn’t accept that fact, I took some MDMA which helped a little but I still had that uneasy feeling, on the 3rd day I wanted to try and trip again, I took one hit nothing happened, took two hits nothing happened, it took me 3 and a half hits to start tripping and I had the exact same trip again just not as strong, like someone was telling me I shouldn’t have this group of friends and shouldn’t be there at all.
The next day I was so depressed thinking what if I’m going to lose them forever and just like I knew 2014 was going to be an amazing year I’m scared I set myself up for an awful 2015. I know its silly to predict your year before it happens but I don’t know whats going on.
Can someone please help with some advice. How can I hang out with my friends who I love so much without thinking about the horrible trip and will I ever be able to take LSD again?
Thanks a lot guys I really appreciate it
I think that it was a bummer firstly you were hesitant and took the trip and not expecting to be left alone that night, Psychedelics are always teachers good trip or bad trip and maybe your right it’s not the right group of friends, 1 thing I have learnt with psychedelics is they allow you to see you more into everything, I love tripping by myself these days, I cant handle trying to take on others bullshit.. 2nd jan this year I took the last of my shroom stash went layed out on the soft grass on the golf course and just looked into the sky and off I went 🙂
You choose what you think buddy, if the thought about the bad trip comes into your mind when your with your friends remove it!
Can you explain how you define a bad trip?
Sorry to hear about the bad experience, never nice in any situation. When you said the person who sold you it said be careful and only take 1 that was weird. LSD is one of the safest drugs ever made but NBOMe, which I have been told is very similar and is regularly sold as LSD, has been known to be dangerous at as low as 3 hits.
Your trip while unpleasant really doesn’t sound that bad compared to some but I’ve had episodes on some drugs where somethig that would never bother me normally has had me in floods of tears thinking my life was over including 1 here I thought I was dead and the universe had ended.
You sound fine physically (I assume) and hope you are feeling a bit better about the experience. Psychedelics can be wonderful things but must be shown respect and you should give thought to your set and setting to give the best chance of a a good time. Being reckless and not thinking can lead to issues.
As methyldreams said, every experience can be a learning experience and you can learn from this one but don’t think anyone hates you or you shouldn’t be around people who are obviously nice, that’s almost certainly not true.

I feel like Tusko would disagree if only he was alive and human.
Thanks guys for all the advice, I do feel a whole lot better now, I’m going to take a break from LSD for now and just let my mind recover, these are some of the most amazing friends I’ve ever had so I’m not going to do anything that would risk me losing them, and hopefully when I do decide to give LSD another shot it will be magical like it was the first time around, I definitely have to be smarter on when to take it.
Mate,
Sorry to hear about your experience. I went through a similar situation, it has now been just over a year since my bad trip and things have only started going back to normal. Although I accidentally got a whole pipette of decent LSD dropped into my mouth so was a much more intense situation (Died a few times in my head, thought I was getting taken to mental home by men in jackets, zooming out of body and back in, thought the whole party was on bad trips and running off, cant explain most of it through typing)….Was at a psy trance forest rave…..All I can say is thank fuck there was fences to the motorway because I ran towards it but couldn’t work out how to get past the fence, sat down, closed my eyes and said to myself fuck it I’m dead-was quite an enlightening experience the whole death thing, suddenly realizing what you have in life and the people you are going to miss…. luckily mates found me but for some reason I couldn’t convince them that I was already dead haha. Have not touched acid since, even get scared of weed after that trip. Sometimes think I’m gonna end up back in that forest and this is all one big trip….but that’s nonsense surely?
Times a healer mate and try not to think about the trip until you feel comfortable, its a waste of energy.
