Wonder how death feels while tripping.

I've been saying that's what I want to do for the past 30 years
WeenusMaGee
I hope he had a nice trip

A great read for anyone who hasn't read it yet

Good book

Are you suggesting something?
GrizzlyBearMachineGuns
If only someone had warned him about those uneven stairs, he might have lived long enough to.enjoy the LSD. :(
hexygrandma
Your brain naturally releases DMT as you die, so that would be a very interesting thing to go through.
thefuckwouldiwantacaravanthatsgotnofuckinwheels
i wonder if the L would fuck up the dmt experience like when you try to stack irl
Forecaster
He's in super-heaven now.
chimchim666
fuck yeah, may as well ay. i'd probably try heroin for the first time on my deathbed, sposed to be pretty rad.

I want to say he had an IV drip of it. So he was tripping fucking balls on his death bed
Tinkytanky
Yeah I kinda feel like this is b.s. unless he had an IV because dying people can't speak/swallow at the end of life. Source: hospice nurse

What if you had a bad trip and died thinking you were going to hell...
R1200GS
How do you know (within hours) when you are going to die?... "on death bed," unless you do something that will kill you.
Tinkytanky
Honestly, in being a hospice nurse for years, I can count on one hand the number of people who were able to speak to me the day they passed.

I would choose ayahuasca. I would just go somewhere else...

We don't know what soma is. We surmise it may have been amita muscaria.

He also wrote 'the doors of perception', influenced heavily by magic mushrooms. The Doors toook their name for the book. He was off his face

Brave New World

FYI this is not a good idea - my fam knew the Huxleys - this doesn't help at all - it's just sad.
fatinnkeeperworm
Your fam knew the Huxleys?? That's amazing! Do you mean this wasn't fun for Aldous' family to go through?
hajikelist
I won't say who - but a close family member did the same thing on their deathbed and it wasn't the right choice...
hajikelist
I'm too young to have met Aldous, but we did go to their home often. Laura's adopted daughter runs a non-profit in van neyes.
usersubbordercontrol
I'm pretty tempted to take shrooms or LSD, cause I'm pretty smart, even with brain damage. I'd love to know what would happen
hotdickjambori93
Just do it you pussy. Even a bad trip teaches you about yourself. Prepare yourself with research and a minimal ability to meditate id say.
HEXADECIMAL
Go with an experienced p person, actually most high level researchers do psychedelics, there's tons of books about them.
notashill
Paul stamets on Joe Rogan podcast give cool info about it
thefuckwouldiwantacaravanthatsgotnofuckinwheels
it's not about intelligence, it's about acceptance, if you don't get this thought you are going to have a bad time
RemiRixJones
Be careful. Get yourself a trip-sitter.
ThisOneTimeInZelda
The real key is to stay calm and remember you are on drugs, if you let yourself believe everything is real you will panic.
AlienNippleAntennae
Panic will amplify any drug. Adrenaline is a helluva a drug! Be in nature preferably and a EXPERIENCED trip sitter wouldn't be a bad idea.
mjg1993
DO IT.. phenomenal experience
someprickinvietnam
I've never even come close to having a bad time. It's just good old fashioned fun. If ya get spooked a little that's part of it.
hakunamatatas
If you take shrooms, I'd highly recommend going to the woods or out into nature in general. Listen to Rodrigo y Gabriela.

thebaronvonbullshit
My biggest recommendation is planning your SET and SETTING. Being mindset (positive gonna be awesome) and being in a safe/fun environment1/
thebaronvonbullshit
2/2 I personally love being outdoors as it gives you a chance to fully expand and experience the whole trip as it should be experienced :)
ProjectPablo
Tbh the best trips for me were the ones I wasnt planning to trip that day and I wasnt 'prepared' (shrooms) like i do normally
hexygrandma
Nothing anyone tells you is going to be an accurate description of what the feeling is like. Just prepare yourself appropriately 1/2
hexygrandma
You can never take less. I would start with 2-2.5 grams of shrooms or 1 tab of LSD. If the L tastes bitter, it’s a spitter. Relax and enjoy
boneapetite
It's all set and setting- where you are in your mind, and where you are physically. Be comfortable and accepting of both. Though I'm not (1/

a "tripper," I have multiple times and mushrooms are my favorite drug. If curious, listen to Terrence McKenna lectures on YouTube.

I like how this comment sprouted a little community of people who have gone before you to give you advice.
usersubbordercontrol
It really makes me proud of this community standing together for the things you *shouldn't* do, so nobody teaches how to safely.
usersubbordercontrol
Like doing a stunt on a dirt bike. Professionals will only say "Don't do it." But if you're GOING TO, might as well SAFELY do it.
KarakLohr
Real LSD isn’t too easy to come by, so be wary there. Shrooms though are easily identifiable. Know your dose though. Start low... 1/2
imgurdotcommie
THIS real lsd is very rare nowadays, they got gud at clamping down ingredients most stuff is an analogue or something with similar effects.
KarakLohr
... with .5 gram, and build up from there over several distinct sessions, spread out over time. Very fine line between fun and madness 2/2
TimLincowdln
This. Only time I have had a lot of fun through the whole experience. First time I took to much and flipped out before I peaked.
neondragon25
Remember you are on drugs and you should be fine. Send a text to someone you trust saying you started and when it should end 1/?
neondragon25
Text them occasionally as well. Have a bowl of cereal before start and only eat another bowl when you are sure you're done 2/?
neondragon25
It helps keep the loops closed. Also have a bottle of water with you, and more water to refill in fridge. Have a playlist ready as well 3/3
hughesybooze
Bit of advise.. Plan it out, don't just go out and do it one day, and take the time to mentally prep yourself. Ideally do it the first 1
hughesybooze
Advice* dammit
hughesybooze
few times with other peeps who know what they're doing. Start with small doses, and with any psychedelic give it a minimum of 6 months 2
hughesybooze
between each trip. It won't give you brain damage, they're very safe drugs to take physically, but they can really fuck with your head 3
hughesybooze
as long as you don't do anything ridiculous like taking a huge dose it won't have any long term adverse effects on you. Also probs try 4
hughesybooze
shrooms or truffles before LSD. Shrooms are like peaking your head through a window, LSD is stepping through the door, it's a lot.
ThisCommentWillGetMeBannedAgain
Probably the worst drugs to start with. Strong shrooms and acid trips can last many, many hours.
usersubbordercontrol
What's best then?
hakunamatatas
3 way to occupy your time until then. I'd take them at home, then go to a park not too far away. Listen to some music and enjoy nature.
hakunamatatas
1 I don't know if I agree that they're the worst to start with, I've never done LSD, but shrooms are pretty great. I'm always a bit nervous
ThisCommentWillGetMeBannedAgain
The problem with shrooms is that the strength varies, so you could eat 10 and trip for 2 hours, or eat 2 and trip for 10 hours.
hakunamatatas
2 when I take them, they usually take 30-60 mins to hit. Just let it happen, don't focus on "Am I high yet?" Figure out some
ThisCommentWillGetMeBannedAgain
Have you at least had weed? Start with a small dose of that, and work your way up. If you don't smoke, then make edibles.
usersubbordercontrol
Allergic to it. Sent me into anyphilactic shock
ThisCommentWillGetMeBannedAgain
Wow, that sucks. Did you do tests to find out what component of it triggered the reaction?
TheGreatGergsy
Shrooms can be heavy and anxiety filled. First time i took them i couldnt open my eyes. Everything was too bright and weird. It would be 1/2
TheGreatGergsy
A good idea to make sure youre in a good space mentally i would say for a least a solid weeks worth of time before trying it. Have a 2/3
TheGreatGergsy
Sober friend with you and if youre feeling up to it, have them drive you around some hilly areas at night. Changed me a little bit.
usersubbordercontrol
Well I HAVE had brain damage as a kid which caused me to hallucinate a LOT of things, I just don't know how different it'd be. I at least
usersubbordercontrol
Managed to fix the thing that caused them. But I also learned how to tell real life and fantasy apart real well. Just no clue are to get it.
