Getting Off Acid (lsd)

[Ryuun]

So for a while now I have been doing acid like most of my time, but lately its been really bad for me I actually think its sending me crazy. This girl I like wants me to stop using it and i want to stop aswell. but I am finding it so hard to say NO to it, It's my only weakness. Any one have any advice for me? ive told my mates not to let me buy it but I still want it all the time

I honestly don't know jack shit about LSD, so I can't offer you a ton of help, but what I do know is that you have to cut yourself off from people, places, and things that make you want to give in. Try to pick up a hobby to devote your time to to distract yourself. Have a confidant, so you can tell someone how you feel when you think you're going to use- I personally am less likely to use if I tell someone.

Good luck.

LSD is not a physically addicting drug, so if you're having a hard time stopping, then you probably have a psychological dependence on it. I wouldn't do LSD often at all, and really wouldn't recommend it to anybody. You're going to damage your brain if you continue to overuse it, and like you said you might start to "lose your mind." You may find that you hallucinate while you're not on it, I.e. An "acid flashback", feel extremely depressed over time, and you'll build up a wicked tolerance after a while, which will require you to use more, and more to achieve the same high. That is especially dangerous because once you start taking high doses of LSD it is easy to take too much, especially if you don't realize that you have stronger acid than you did previously, and you could have a horrible trip. It is definitely in your best interest that you stop or at least slow it down drastically, as a starting point.

Ren gave you some good advice. To stop you may have to cut yourself off from some people, some places, and some things. Your friends may be able to help, but in my experience a lot of this is a solo journey, and you really have to want to stop to be able to.

I know someone who does LSD all the time, don't really have any advice as to how you could stop, apart from sheer will power, or easing off gently. Have you thought about contacting a drug rehab clinic?

Mike hit it right on the head.


Best of luck in your battle against this.

I do t recommend you do any type of drug, but.... there is a high chanceilings that the "lsd" of yours isn't actually lsd but more likely something in the 25x-nbome family. Lsd is pretty safe, but there have been multiple deaths associated with the 25x family in the past few years. It has alot of unknown side effects and you can overdose on as little as 2 tabs. I'm not saying 25x is bad, Ive had great trips on it, but it is dangerous. If you are going to continue to drop acid regularly get some test kits to show what you're actually taking and try not to trip more that once a month. If you need any help with anything feel free to pm me

OP, are you absolutely sure it's LSD? LSD should not be addictive, at all.

It sounds to me like you are not taking what you think you are. Just stop buying the stuff, or give your money to someone else to hold on to. With LSD, there should not be any withdrawals except for your mental ones so it's a matter of just doing it. I would suggest trying to find an alternative to spend a majority of your time on, and avoid friends who'd ask you to join them for a trip.
