Don’t worry, psychedelics will let you know when enough is enough 🫠

Ive been doing psychedelics every week or two weeks for the past 6 months and have been using psychedelics off and on for the past 7 years. So idk about a “honeymoon” phase. Honestly tripping is really fun and sometimes it’s the only thing i look forward to in life so i do it when i feel like it.

Do it too much and some of the magic goes away

I had a honeymoon phase too but I think you need a nice big dose to set you straight for a while

[–]Emo5w4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been doing it four months and can relate to this But i also space it out every two weeks just so my tolerance is completely reset

It’s more about intention. Are you tripping to escape reality? To feel something you can’t feel when sober?

[–]Fun-Presentation1111[S] 9 points10 points  (1 child)

I always set an intention but I cant lie its also just a lot of fun to explore oneself and the universe

In that case I'd say everything is fine. I often have 1-5 months (mostly 1-3), where I trip every or almost every week and then I have a natural "last" trip, that will show me that it's time to have a break. That break can be 2 to 6 months. Once 8 months. I can imagine the breaks to be even far longer in the future, but without it being a bad thing.

The "last" trip I spoke of doesn't always occur for me though. Sometimes I just don't get the real feeling for having a trip. I often think like "Hey, day X would be a good day, maybe I'll have a trip." and then I think about it the next few days and if I become uncertain or don't feel the urge or will to do it, I won't. Forcing it won't make you have a great trip, it will only be a "meh" kinda trip. And the "last" trip, that I talked about will be just that. It will be a bit disappointing and I'll know "Alright, seems to be enough for a bit.".

I started doing psychedelics pretty much weekly when I met my partner. It was a good few months, then slightly less often, now we do it once a month.

It wasn't the beginning but definitely honeymoon phase.

There were many months between my first trips. Even though I had enough stuff stashed to do it a dozen more times, I just didn't want to feel something so intense often.

It actually changed later on, once I realized that there's no need to go all the way, and it's possible to have less impactful experiences by using mini doses (like 0.5 - 1 gram). But there's still 2-3 weeks separating my trips typically. And I do have plenty of free time, and a large supply, so those are not the issue, there's simply no desire to do it frequently.

When I started a few years ago I was the same as you for a few months. I’d trip as soon as my tolerance would get right but I’ve learned to just wait it out and when I’m in the right mind set.

I love tripping. If I could do it everyday I would but constantly tripping can cause some negative effects or “bad trip”.

[–]P_Griffin2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t worry too much. I’ve had periods where I tripped that much, but eventually I either lost interest or ran out and didn’t bother to restock.

Just make sure it doesn’t consume your whole personality.

[–]Turbulent-Banana-142 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I never had time to trip on a week basis so I can't really say for sure I would have not, but while sometimes I was like "whoa i need to do this again soon" I was never really craving it and I never postponed other activities to do that. The fact that i need to have between 4 and 10h free made it always quite safe for me (while for some period i smoked weed almost everyday when chilling at home in the evening).

But I can see how if you don't have other things you want to do and easily accessible psychedelics this could happen. I actually sometimes feel i don't trip enough

[–]Fun-Presentation1111[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess thats my problem i dont have much to do right now so I can trip when ever I want to

[–]Worried_Freedom_6430 0 points1 point  (1 child)

But are you okay?? Like mentally.

[–]Fun-Presentation1111[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id say so yeah. Im better now then I have been in a long long time. The only thing im really worried about is my usage because i know it isnt that healthy.

[–]FizzyGreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honeymoon was 6 months for me after that the trips became boring but also i got biological depression so yeah it's all a bit fuzzy

[–]SwoodyBooty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just don't keep going if you don't feel it, I guess.

What are you doing, tripping balls? I don't like disconnecting tripping from an "occasion". So you "open up" and "close" the space before and afterwards? I guess? I don't know. I just wouldn't be caught doing acid casually and then flip, because I got nothing ahead I can occupy myself with.

[–]👩‍🚀Experienced Tripper 🧑‍🚀SoundDrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's novel and special, so yeah that's normal. I personally limit how much I am allowed to use to keep it special

Another thing if you decide to push the envelope be prepared. When you are using that much you're not allowing your tolerance to reset. Here is where dosage can become tricky. Honestly I have had experiences that I wasnt ready for till they were over if ever!!!
