[Hicks]

Hello everybody!
My name's Riccardo, I'm an italian boy and I'm sixteen. Yes, maybe I'm too young for "these things" but, ehi, Has anyone ever died from smoking Cannabis?
Hope to learn a lot in this forum!

Marijuana cannot kill you, but you must always avoid abusing substances, even if its natural herbal medicine. You eat too much, you tend to get fat. You drink too much, you start having problems. If you smoke too much weed, you might start having problems also, too. But that varies from person to person. I smoke pot almost everyday, in the evening before going to bed. I'm 21, alive and healthy. Godda big balls :|

Welcome to our cosy community. You're always amongst friends here.
...except for me.
:shock:

I know

I also want to try Magic Mushrooms with some friends of mine, or maybe I'm "too young"? But we feel like we're "ready".. Soon I'll post some questions.

maturity lies independent of age. just make sure that everything goes well in your planning, before your lips even come near the psychedelic, and the problems should be minimal, however, there are no guarantees.

anyways, welcome to the forum!

Set and Setting are actually ok: (They're 16 too, however)

They're my best friends, I love spending time with them. We all want to try them, without any fear of the effects.. - I think that Set is ok.

And also the setting is perfect: A friend's house, in his farm. There's nobody except us.. and we sleep there.

The real problem is.. where we can find the Magic Mushrooms? Growing the shrooms is too problematic for us.. So, problems begin..
I said to them:" Why not LSD?, i think that will be an awesome experience (too)! We can find LSD without all those problems..
But they don't want to do LSD, because they think that LSD destroy brain or shit like this.. :? (They said that shrooms are natural so they will not "destroy" your brain ecc...)

However, thanks for the welcome and sorry for my bad english..

Mushrooms can be more dangerous than taking lsd. You risk getting very intense and visual trips which you cannot stop even when closing your eyes (which makes it worse, actually), you risk throwing up (if mushrooms not prepared correctly). Try those when your 19 or 20 or something. Not worth to try it now, I'm 21 and I don't take mushrooms, although I've tried.

LSD has the potential to unlock hidden potential in your mind, which could enable you to do great things but also to see the world, life and the universe as it really is. I'm serious, this is the key to pandora's box, so you must be very careful with this substance. Know that this is a non-toxic substance which only affects 1 chemical in the brain which is made to trip. Within a couple of days after taking lsd, that natural chemical substance in your brain is re-made. Nothing weird, its a normal human-body regeneration procedure.

The only thing is, you must NOT be stressed, anxious, depressed, unhappy, confused etc. when you take LSD (acid) otherwise you will have a bad and a horrible trip which will haunt you for months, maybe even years. You must take no more than 1 hit your first time, and you got to be mentally prepared for the magic spiritual journey that the lsd will help you experience. It lasts 7 to 12 hours, and you will dehydrate a bit, so have water next to you, always. You might also get muscle cramps, I personally get stomach cramps, but its no big deal, eating a bic mac does more damage to my stomach than lsd ever could.

But I suggest smoking cannabis/weed instead. LSD and mushrooms is serious business, I personally waited a few years before I took those.

If you have any questions, let us know, there are plent of knowledgeable people around here. I'm just a noob

Thanks for those advices, that's why I'd like to try LSD.
I have told to my friends things like these but, they keep saying no because LSD it's an acid, it's not natural ecc..
There's also another cause for that: A lot of people here think that LSD effects won't stop after taking it. "Rimanerci sotto" as they say here in Italy.



Sorry for my ignorance but what does "1 hit" mean? 1 tiny square? (blotters)

And yes, maybe it's better for me to wait another 3-4 years

 

[KingLordMaster]

I know a guy who took acid when he was 12. So again, age doesn't matter, but mental perparation and planning is the safe way of doing it, which is what I did.

By 1 hit I mean 1 acid tab, those small square pieces that look like cardboard. Its a very small thing. You put it in your mouth and play around with it, but it works best if you keep it under your tongue for 10 minutes and then swallow it.

Thanks again for your help.

 

[KingLordMaster]

No problem man.

 

[ophiuchus]

your english is fine.

You must take no more than 1 hit your first time

no.

there is no rulebook on how much to take. potency varies A LOT with lsd, so safety guidelines are virtually useless. the question one must ask themselves before consuming is "do i want to play in the sandbox forever, or did i come here to discover something truly amazing?" that is all. personally, i prefer not to waste my time.

Mushrooms can be more dangerous than taking lsd.

no.

You risk getting very intense and visual trips which you cannot stop even when closing your eyes (which makes it worse, actually), you risk throwing up (if mushrooms not prepared correctly).

a trip should be visual and intense... how does one define a trip as different from being sober, without those qualities? that is what a trip is...

with mushrooms AND lsd there is much variation in potency, but mushrooms are much more consistent and easier to gauge potency. with mushrooms it's also far easier to tell if one is being ripped off or given an entirely different substance. such is not easy to tell with lsd...

tell your friends to do some research on psychedelics, it appears that they know very little about them if they still think that acid will burn holes in ones brain... :?

Thanks again

After a discussion, one of my friend has decided to try it. We're 4 guys, 2 do LSD and 2 are sober. Now we're choosing one day when we'll have this awesome experience.

The better the weather, the better the trip. Unless you're really passionate about gloomy weather and rain, which I am too, actually. But the sun is really nice when on acid, you can feel the energy and the life it gives to us and to the planet.

 

[ophiuchus]

agreed. weather becomes very interesting on a trip. i once saw a lunar halo while tripping, perfectly clear sky. it was exceptionally beautiful in it's own right.

Thanks for those advice, guys

Just another question: My friend, that will do LSD with me should wear glasses.. But he doesn't wear glasses all the time. If he will not wear them, the visuals and hallucinations will be different? I know, this sound strange but i'm high and i'd like to know
