I’ve decided that I want to share my LSD experience, at least as it pertains to how it affected my body.
I’ve tried small doses of LSD in the past, ranging from about 10mcg to 60mcg.
At 10mcg I first noticed an increase in anxiety and panic-sweating which then gave way to a cooling down of the body which I found similar to when a fever breaks. It also seemed to increase whatever effect the environment had on me.
I took it before work once and I was feeling pretty good (particularly enjoying the wind as it blew through trees) until I entered the office began to stress out from work issues. The only thing that made me feel better was going to the park and just watching the trees. It would seem that fresh air and sunlight are calming/soothing.
When I first tried 60mcg, it took a long time to kick in. I was at a bar when it began with profuse sweating and discomfort. Then when I managed to cool off and calm down, I felt much more at ease than I usually am. I didn’t feel especially different until another couple of hours later. Driving home, I noticed the lights were brighter than usual; even the night sky was brighter.
As I drove, I became filled with a sense of wonder; everything seemed so much more interesting. I wanted to wander around the neighborhood, but it was late at night and I thought it might look strange. The rest of the night I spent in my room; I felt very awake and focused and conscious. Watching television was absurd; everything just seemed fake or ridiculous. My libido was increased as well.
If I remember correctly, I felt better than usual for the next few days.
About 2 weeks ago I took enough to have a serious trip, roughly 240mcg.
Overall, it was a lot of up and down in terms of mood. I would go from ecstatic to dread filled.
I have some serious muscle tension along the left side of my body. I noticed that as the trip progressed, the tension was releasing. At times, it felt like the muscles and tendons were cracking and shedding some sort of calcification; like it was cracking and crumbling to reveal the soft tissue beneath. I also started spitting up constantly. I had some nausea and when I would retch, the only thing that came out was spit. I also had a craving for fresh, cold water. Just about everything seemed like it would cause nausea and therefore I didn’t eat anything until the next day. Only the freshest water and fruit seemed helpful.
As my body released tension, it seemed that a surge of spit would follow. When the spitting began, I could the left side of my head release tension, particularly in the sinuses. I also felt an opening up of my neck on the left side and into my torso. Then I was burping and a foul odor was coming out from the left side. I could smell sour and stale air coming out. The spit too was stale and gross; I think this is part of why fresh water was so enticing.
After the worst of the trip had ended, I was lying on the couch, letting the tension go while spitting into a cup. The spit looked a lot like lemonade. As time went on, the spit became less foul and sticky and more fresh and watery.
It seemed to me that the spleen was at work because it felt like I was having more activity in the area where the spleen is located. Part of it was just some sort of intuition that I had; it felt like the spit was stale fluid that my lymphatic system needed to purge and replace with fresh water. I also thought perhaps there was calcium in the spit that my body was clearing out from the hardened tissues.
The day after my trip, I was still spitting up, but not as often. It seemed to increase in the evening and morning. I was only able to sleep for about a half hour due to nausea. The nausea would come and go along with feelings of dread. When I wasn’t feeling anxious I was feeling optimistic and grateful for being alive. I noticed that loud, stuffy environments were overwhelming whilst fresh air and being outdoors was very soothing.
Nausea in the morning had persisted for a week, but Alka-Seltzer was very helpful in shutting it down. Another effect was getting up earlier; I had used to sleep in regularly until noon most days.
I had several revelations while tripping, one of which was that life is flow. You need air and light and movement. Being stuck indoors with artificial light and no air flow is detrimental to our wellbeing. A lack of “flow” can be not taking action to change something that bothers you. It can be doing the same thing over and over; being set in a way that is detrimental to one’s health.
Being soft and supple allows one to go with the flow, adapting to the environment rather than just trying to cope.
Overall, it was a positive experience although I cannot see why anyone would do this drug recreationally since it was as terrific as it was terrible.
