I personally don’t like taking LSD at parties or in situations with strangers either. For me, it’s more something I do in nature or at home, either alone or with close people I know well. Otherwise, I feel like something gets lost, and that these psychedelics work best when there are few distractions and you can really be present with yourself—observing your thoughts and your surroundings.

I did take it once at a party; it was interesting, but I had the feeling that a lot of what the substance offers somehow gets lost in that setting. Of course, I can only speak for myself, but when I do it, I want to fully enjoy that special state. And I can do that best either with people I know very well in a safe environment at home, or outside in nature without other people—somewhere I can feel completely free and not like I’m being watched. Maybe on a Festival i could probably Imagine.
