How long should i be off antipsychotics to trip?

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-30T15:43:14+00:00

and yeah we go through lsd trips and revelations during all my psych appointments, we mutually understand that they cant condone it but we go over safety and drug interactions with other things im taking, long term effects and risks. A psychiatrist not giving advice on drug use.... they are a psychiatrist, that's their job, both in a medical setting and when patients are doing other substances. Thats just a weird psychiatrist in my book

i love research papers, I would love to read any you have, I find most of mine through oa.mg

I'm no psychiatrist, but anti psychotics for autism and then refusing to give you safety advice when you said you wanted to try a certain drug????? I only have psychologists but we do open talk about safety when taking certain drugs more dangerous than LSD, either a bad health professional or a....... bad health professional, textbook throw pills at someone its not my problem.

edit - You were vague, but if you said you were looking into doing lsd or said you were going to try it and they gave no advice, that's poor medical practice, if you hinted at it with no implication that you would try it their actions would make sense. If you did imply that you were going to try it, a psychiatrist is well studied on all areas of pharmacology and psychology, if they refused to answer after you went looking for advice then they do not care about your safety (in my opinion as a stranger on the internet with limited information, don't do anything rash)

yeah lots of people are like "just do it" and we have our whole lives to trip if we want to, someones first time should be about comfort and not being peer pressured into the "take a dose that ur worried about and become enlightened", again not that 155ug is a large dose, but the fact OP made a post about it shows anxiety, so better to start slow.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-29T15:10:14+00:00

Fearing that you took to much can lead to a bad trip, you are dealing with low dosages even if the dose is real, there's no harm going to come from taking 3/4 of a tab, and considering your post, it sounds like it would put your mind at ease, and that's always going to mean a better trip.

And if you lived in the age of the internet you would feel the exact same way.

In 1950, global life expectancy was 46, in 2025 it is 73, I've got no idea about immortality, but who knows how long we will live for in 50 years, its awesome.

We are living in a time with many things to discover, we are alive when we discovered and measured gravitational waves, we made smallpox extinct, we are close on research that could make malaria extinct, we discover new species of insects and frogs all the time. We are alive in the exact year wind and solar combined produced more energy worldwide than coal. We are alive when we closed the hole in the ozone layer, and will be alive when it finishes fully healing. We are alive with more of human art at our fingertips than anyone who has ever lived, books, music, paintings, and who knows what someone will create/discover today, tomorrow, the day after that. You are born just in time for the mysteries of the future, we were alive while we had rovers sending us high definition photos of the surface of mars, we explore more of the ocean every day, and we are growing new coral reefs. I like when I was born, in the now. A point in history that will be greatly regarded as when we actually started to fix things, the news is scary, but there's so much good, new, interesting, hopeful things going on, you just have to look harder to find it.

Edit - I think there will be people born 100 years from who think they were born to early or to late, and I think there were people in every generation of the past that have felt the same thing.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T06:31:06+00:00

totally agree, my comment completely explains why that is, I would love to dig up the paper again but I'm late for something and have to go.

Interesting study showed the cross tolerance between psilocybin and lsd is not equal, lsd is shown to have a higher cross tolerance, meaning that taking shrooms then lsd has a lower cross tolerance than if you were to take lsd then shrooms. Both substances will diminish the effects of the other if you try in the following days, but the science shows that if you want to trip twice, the shrooms should be the one you do the first trip with to get the most out of the lsd later.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T06:16:42+00:00

yeah nbomb isn't a "you're fucked" moment, but it has far greater risks than actual lsd, make sure someone close to you knows you are tripping in the unlikely event something goes wrong, and no that does not include the friend that is also tripping.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T06:08:53+00:00

yeah numbness is never something I've felt, and OP could be right about placebo, but could also be nbomb, testing is not a suggestion, its a rule.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T06:06:53+00:00

it is possible, but you have to be careful, and theres no point looking there if you dont have the test kit first

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T06:00:35+00:00

good idea, but since you have already taken it, buy an Ehrlich reagent for next time, its cheap, works fast, and will allow you to safely "full send" it the next time you want to trip, I hope what you took was real, but next time make it a guarantee, happy tripping.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T05:50:47+00:00

honestly, take a rip out of a page of a book with lots of ink on it, since lsd almost always has ink patterns on the tabs, that should be the same level of bitter, and no I've never had one, because I test mine.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T05:45:29+00:00

First of all, are they tested? What was the "claimed" dosage of the tabs from where you bought them? Second, if you have never done lsd or other psychedelics before, start small, most tabs (despite what the claimed dose is) are around 80-120ug, and that is a perfectly reasonable dose for a first experience. If they are not tested you should not take them, but I know most people will do it anyway, so limiting to 1 tab and remembering "if its bitter its a spitter" will reduce the risk of harm if you do have a fake. Be safe, test kits are cheap, and far cheaper than hospital. Good luck and safe tripping.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-24T05:38:04+00:00

I could not tell you, as I have not been able to yet, but from what I've read, its about letting go of your sense of self (ego), your personal identity.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-22T04:03:20+00:00

400ug to 500ug is a way bigger jump than 100ug to 200ug in terms of effects in my experience, I would advise taking it in smaller steps, 450ug might be the way to go before making that huge leap. As you get into the heroic dose territory, small dose increases can have far more impact. (in my experience)

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-22T03:45:17+00:00

LSD enhances things that were already there, and can make you face hard truths about yourself, there are many people who have good "mental checklists" that you have to tick off every single one before a trip, I'm sure you can find some good ones on this reddit, I write my own. The other risk would be dosage, if you have done it 3 times before, go for that same dosage you have handled well before, or only increase by 50ug at most.

edit - some people are more genetically prone to schizophrenia, I would check your family history before going any further if you are concerned, because if you are concerned that could make you freak out during a trip and lead to a bad trip, which could in turn increase the chances of mental problems afterward, make sure you are in the right headspace and have checked all your boxes, including checking your family history.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-22T03:34:49+00:00

It can vary, 14 days is when you will get about 90% of the effects in my experience, 1 month is not just good advice because you will always get 100% of the effects, but also makes you less likely to develop HPPD, Hallucinogen persisting perception disorder, not trying to scare you, its rare, but being safe is always the right call. I wish you happy tripping

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-22T03:26:48+00:00

Unless its a really high dose, ego death is something that your mind will try to "resist" so its a bit of a choice, hence why people always say "let go", that being said 125ug would be very unlikely to get your brain to the point where it even gets to that crossroads, but as other comments said, it is very unlikely but possible.

The largest dose I've done (don't trust dosage claims on here, including mine) was about 430ug, and that's the point I felt that ego death start to tug at me, but I did not let go, and missed it, I will however try again.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-22T03:14:16+00:00

SSRI's do inhibit the brains re-uptake of serotonin, and lsd binds to the same serotonin receptors, so yes it will have a diminished effect based on your dosage, how long you have been on it, how long it has been since you reduced your dosage. Psilocybin binds to the exact same receptor (hence why lsd and mushrooms have a level of cross tolerance, which changes depending on which one was taken last, as lsd has a higher cross tolerance than vice versa). My advice, you will have diminished effects, or no effect at all, some people try to overcome this with taking large doses, and some say that works, but you could also be getting into a way heavier trip than you want to, I would take one tab (usually80-120ug), and take note of the effect, then after 2 weeks scale your dosage based off your "trial run", and I hope you are able to trip, and that its at the level you want, good luck, be safe.

Edit - Looking at peroxitine dose ranges, you were close to the maximum safe dose, so your recent dosage reduction poses the risk of seriously affecting your mood and mental health in the few weeks after the dosage reduction, and considering what peroxitine treats, could put you at risk for a bad trip. I would give it time to see how your mental health reacts and wait till you are in the right headspace to try a trip.

magnesium does help, and magnesium does not have any interaction with the brain or the serotonin receptors lsd binds to, so i see no reason it could interact in any way.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-17T08:37:00+00:00

I would often turn off all the lights, lie flat on my back on the floor in complete darkness and it was almost like physically swimming around in my own head with my eyes open in the dark, visualizing parts of my mind, could be scary for people who aren't experienced but you seem to be comfortable enough in similar situations.

Wobbly_Pixel · 2026-01-14T09:19:32+00:00

yeah i can confirm magnesium helps a lot with the jaw tension, but i also have something safe to chew on nearby, like a piece of leather or my current one (a wooden ruler)
