Acid - LSD, trip

Effects:

• Seeing colours more intensely
• Seeing patterns, things seem to move or melt
• Hallucination
• Feeling of floating, time seems to slow down
• Feeling of a new reality or understanding of life
• paranoia and schizophrenia type mental illness from long term use.
• flashbacks (reliving parts of the trip) and panic attacks weeks, months or years later.
• Can give no sense of danger, putting yourself or others at major risk of harm.
• Effects vary with your mood when you take the tab and the amount of drug in it.

Acid with other drugs:

• Any other drugs: acid can be strong and unpredictable so not a good idea to mix with other drugs.
• Anti-depressants: can raise or lower the effects of acid; some (as well as lithium) can cause dangerous reactions from increased effects. Check with a doctor first.
• HIV drugs: no known dangerous interaction.

Sex on Acid:

• Can make you feel horny and increase your sense of touch
• Hallucinations can be sexual
• Sex can seem to last longer than it really does
• Lower inhibitions can change your view of reality, make it easier to act out sexual fantasies, cloud your judgement of safer sex.
• In case you have a bad trip, have sex with someone you know well and trust.

Staying safe:

• Take someone having a bad trip to a quiet place. Reassure them the drug will wear off in a few hours but get medical help if they're out of control.
• Acid can trigger mental health problems and make existing ones worse, so it's a good idea to avoid acid if you have anxiety, depression or other mental health problems.
