A 100ug dose is a good starting point if you have never taken Psychedelics before and should provide a calm and opening experience. If you are interested in deeper psychological work or spiritual exploration, and have a lot of experience at lower does, you may decide to move up to 400 or 500ug, but only do so if you are very comfortable with lower doses. Do not use Psychedelics unless you are very confident of the quality and dose that you have. It’s best to use a source that someone you know has also used and can vouch for.

If you are guilt-ridden, depressed or you have a fear you can’t face- a trip can help you explore that, which can be scary but you will be free of it and have more clarity about life. Other times a bad trip can be a hallucinogenic nightmare, but they are avoidable.

Some pro tips on avoiding a bad trip:

• Don’t take too much: start with a low dose i.e. 100ug to 150ug– don’t mix it with other drugs. You may be offered cannabis–decline.
• Stay in a controlled environment. Do not go partying while tripping, stay among good friends listen to music, walk in the park, enjoy the visuals. Or do it alone.
• Consider LSD an exploratory apparatus, rather than a drug. You may explore your mind and face things you have been avoiding–relax–accept it and learn from it.
• Be content when you take it. Consider acid a holiday or a vacation–take it when you are in a vacation spirit.
• Finally don’t be afraid of the drug, people that have bad trips usually have a direct cause, such as doing the opposite of the tips above. Always get it from a reputable source.
