LSD was singlehandedly the most important and significant experience of my entire life. It created a shift in the way I move through life in a way that's extremely difficult to put into words. It's also near impossible to compare it to anything unless you have ever tried a psychedelic.

I know it is a bold statement, but I truly think most humans beings would benefit significantly from the responsible use of LSD. One trip is all that is needed to create lifelong changes in who you are. It helps you step back from your societal conditioning and see our planet through an objective lens. The long list of positive benefits to LSD, in my life, have been permanent. For most people, their understanding of psychedelics only comes through the media and Hollywood's caricature of them, neither of which even come close to exemplifying the benefits of psychedelics. If I could describe LSD in one word it would be: beautiful. Not scary, freaky, or as frightening as most people would think. Doing a psychedelic also helps you come to a better spiritual understanding of what exactly took place with the hippie movement in the '60s.

To those considering it or just curious, it would fascinate you to do research on this chemical that has changed so many lives.

When I was 17 I had a pretty bad drug problem with cocaine. until on day my dealer gave me some LSD I had the worst trip I've ever experienced it lasted for about 18 hours. When I finally came down, I felt normal for the first time since I was a kid. I've been clean for 6 year's I believe if I hadn't done LDS that day I'd be dead.

I'm on acid right now and am having a total beautiful experience. I also have cancer so coping has been hard and acid has just made me happy. I cried some tears of joy, enjoyed the bright lights and laughs. Its helped with my digestion and my schizophrenia & anxiety.❤

LSD and Mushrooms wtih a healthy dose of buddhism improved my life immeasurably

[Vergos]

Lsd changed my life for the better. It opened doors I couldn't see and it put me on a great path. I honestly feel if everyone tripped once the world would be a better place.

Like I had dropped a tab and I'm tripping shit rn, but his forehead and hair is funny looking as fuck doggo

I've tried about every drug out there.. LSD was the only one that opened my eyes. Never had a flashback, sustained from alcohol for a decent bit, had a GREAT time, woke me up to problems I was putting off in a positive manner, cried for the first time in over a year (made me feel damn relieved), and I can't recall one bad side effect. I never felt closer to my friend I tried it with. I started to realize how many things I took for granted and how selfish I was acting in many circumstances.

I would suggest LSD to anyone who is ready to try it. - and by the way, I'm schizophrenic. I feel that the psychology world has written off LSD for schizophrenics because it may further psychosis. At least in my case, it reversed them or at the very least - came to terms with them to the point of diminishing them.

You dont know how beautiful the world is until you take LSD. Is really a life experience enhancer.

One time my friend smoked some acids and thought he could fly so he jumped out of a window and then turned into an orange.

I have tripped upwards of 30 times with no bad trips, don't do psychedelics at night, take shit and shower 1st, buy some bottled water and Hubert lemonade, for food I always go granola cashews and dark chocolate, I always smoke right after the tabs are under my tongue and intermittently during the 12ish hr trip, definitely have a safe place, I usually trip alone but as long as you like everyone it's awesome lol

[theodorp]

at least psychedelics should be legal . end of story.

bad trips mostly happen when your ego is trying to stay in control of the situation. learn to let go only then will you find peace within yourself
