Nine Drawings (on LSD)

Re: Nine Drawings (on LSD)

Everyone is forgetting about the lasting effects of LSD. I have known people who have serious problems even now, many many years later. It can really mess you up. It's just something you don't think or worry about at the time.

Drug discussion is one thing.. Ecouraging someone to do something illegal in these forums is another and will result in a ban.

That was interesting. The drawings seemed to be decaying into something a 6 year old might draw up until picture 5. Pictures 6 and 7 were nice though..

I don't really understand the purpose of these tests... was the govt exparimenting on an artist? That seems kind of wierd, doesn't it?

Well, I imagine it would just be an expiriment as to what the effects LSD would have to a creative person on their creativity. I can be done with almost anything (ie: not drugs). It's like if i slowly started sticking your fingers to your hands, how would it affect you typing? Or something like that. I would like to see this expiriment under different drugs.

Coke and meth and heroin can. LSD (itself[done properly]) can't, at all.

Even if it did, that seriously has little to do with this thread. Let's not turn this one into a drug argument.

Re: Nine Drawings (on LSD)

Negative LSD effects include:
* anxiety
* tension, jaw tension
* increased perspiration
* nausea
* dizziness, confusion
* megalomania
* over-awareness & over-sensitization to music and noise
* paranoia, fear, and panic
* unwanted and overwhelming feelings
* unwanted life-changing spiritual experiences
* flashbacks

Some of those, such as flashbacks, are long term.

I can deal with any and all of those no problem without it actually effecting my life significantly (which I know was your point, and I'm emphasizing it). They also don't happen to everybody (and certainly never happened to me except some very brief paranoia at a couple points)
And most of those negative effects can be effectively cured with pot.

It should also be mentioned that the frequency of long-term effects in LSD is less than 2:1000.

Re: Nine Drawings (on LSD)

This was posted elsewhere, and I've also had it bookmarked for a while, figured it should be posted in Chit Chat cause it's pretty cool:

LSD is pretty fun. I've done it a few times and each time I had a wonderful experience.

Something cool I found: http://www.cowboybooks.com.au/html/acidtrip1.html

He's a really good artist.

I put it up first...

Anyway, there is a video of some guy actually drawing something that I'm going to try and find.

Edit: If you really want to weigh the good/neutral/bad then this is an excellent source.

What test led to this number? Also, what frequency of use and potency does it relate to?

Wow, 2 of the people I know who used to moderately use LSD 10+ years ago must have been really unlucky. They still have problems to this day. Nothing like having flashbacks while trying to play with your kids.

Yeah, I said in that thread that I might post it in Chit Chat since I've had it bookmarked for a while and it's cool, and I said in this thread that it was posted elsewhere. I guess I should have credited you or something, but I didn't bother to go back and learn how to spell your username.

Do it.

My source for that particular statement was from this:

That sucks a lot. If they did it a bunch then, they might have done a lot of microdots or something, which might help explain that.
Also, if they both had particularly traumatic experiences, that could cause that. The flashbacks can't possibly actually come from the LSD itself, as there is no trace of it in your friends anymore, but some people are succeptable to having flashbacks from traumatic experiences in the first place. If they had been gangraped and sliced open ten years ago, they would be having flashbacks of that. People who have long-term effects from LSD had a psychological condition to begin with, and some people are just likely to have flashbacks.
Your friends are unlucky to have had such bad experiences, most people don't have them.

Don't sweat it rairai, no biggie.

Anyway I didn't find the video but I did find another funny one of some Nazi's: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...esting&pl=true

There are more of these but I don't feel like looking.

Re: Nine Drawings (on LSD)

saying not to do lsd because of flashbacks is sort of like saying "oh don't get raped as a child" or "don't get sent into a war" since flashbacks are the same thing experienced by PTSD sufferers. Obviously there's a little more choice involved with lsd, but if you're a confident person who's not afraid of themselves, it's supposedly not an issue.

that said those drawings are old.
