I have done a ton of acid and shrooms and yet this batch I did last year hosed me up in ways I couldn't understand.

Like, I forgot how to open a door. Or unzip pants.

In meteorology, vorticity often refers to a measurement of the spin of horizontally flowing air about a vertical axis.

totally reversies with me. brains are wild

Speaking of weird brains, neither of them work for me. I just get incredibly high. No trips, no hallucinations, no visual effects, no amazing revelations, nothing. People say "oh you just didn't do enough" but I did as much as everyone else and it worked for them. I would probably make a bad Guild Navigator.

I hit up a mushroom dispensary for the first time yesterday after work, and grabbed some gummies. I think they were 200mg each, ten gummies in a pack. The buddy who recommended the place said "one pack gets me a bit buzzed, two does me in for the night." I do not have the same tolerance as him (and I didn't eat anything all day). Ate half the pack before biking over to my friend's birthday party at the bar; by the end of the five-minute bike ride I was already feeling funky. Definitely not Tripping, but the colours in the place were intense and I was a bit giggly.

I never really 'break through' with shrooms, never taken a heroic dose and I mostly just feel threshold effects. Sometimes just enough to give me couch-lock at a party while everyone else is socializing. Last night I was fine, but I wish psychedelics like that would make me more talkative and carefree; I didn't chat much with the girl I'm hopelessly crushing on. Maybe I should try acid, given the different reports from people ITT and friends who say it's much more of an 'active' high. I just don't want to overdo it.

Acid was quite social for me if it was a low enough dose, but I was also at a very drifting 'searching' stage of my life. I also made moves on acid, worked out in the long run. Just let it make you honest and open without expecting any specific outcome in return.

Frank did mushrooms, but I've never heard about him trying LSD. Not that it would surprise me.

You know, I never thought of the worms that way but it explains a lot.

Of course a psychadelics drug derail is entirely on-topic for a Dune thread. I've said before, I feel like ready access to Spice is absolutely one of the few things that makes Fremen life bearable. It's outright said the Spice orgies are a chance for people who spend most of their days having to practice intense self-control and discipline can let it out and go a little crazy psychic style, then probably understandably act like it never happened.

Micrososing on mushrooms might make you more talkative but lol it and acid are definitely not things you take to talk to strangers. Trusted environments and situations and people or you're just gonna be wide eyed looking at ppl from the corner.

Last time I took a heroic dose of shrooms I was drunk already and wasn't paying attention to how much I had eaten. My friend was playing YouTube videos of industrial cranes for some reason and I was convinced he had found a playlist that simulated the effects of mushrooms. I was trying to coolguy it and pretend nothing was weird until I looked around the room and completely lost it. My wife had to come pick me up and take me home, where I laughed with tears coming down my face for eight hours

Exactly. Tho I've only "broken" through with mushrooms once (really tripped). Much prefer weed tho. Mushrooms can really gently caress with your stomach.

LSD is a 12 hr gauntlet that just takes up way too much of your time.

Moderate dose 2c-b is good for socialising, I find (high dose definitely not though, it's very distracting past a point)
