I wonder if Hamilton Morris has tried it yet. Hamilton, if you're reading let us know when you're going to let us hear about it :)

For anyone vaguely interested in psychoactive/psychedelic drugs, his books and videos are amazing:

Sorry to use a reddit-ism, but "this should be at the top" - for safety.

Sounds like Hallucinogen persisting perception disorder

"Days"?!? Hard pass. My experiments with shrooms in college was fun, but I couldn't deal with the 8-12 hours of hallucinating.

I guess you didn't touch LSD? I think 12 would be considered short :)

I knew personally someone whose trips usually took 48 hours. Unusually long, yes, and really exhausting.

LSD had the same duration with me, but more psychological & emotional impact. So I avoided it for two reasons. Weirdly, all my divorced 50+ year-old male peers are now into K and DMT. They are raving about DMT, but I feel like my brain is too frail-as-is.

Interesting.

Admittedly i wanted to try both but back then I didn't have opportunity, and now the mindspace is just not too.... Right for the risks.

Maybe when I'm too old to worry and it's too late to care :)

Damn. 8-12? For me the peak always lasted 2-3 hours and I was sober again after 7 hours.

yea people in this thread saying 8-12 for psilocybin and 12 is short for LSD tells me these are either heroic doses or hyperbolizing.

Nah. Everything I've read about hallucinogens says dose doesn't change effect duration, only intensity. Drugs do affect people differently, so I wouldn't jump straight to saying they're exaggerating.

Also, 12 hours is definitely not short of LSD. I'd say it's the standard duration, with the peak lasting 7 hours. Longer trips can happen, at least to some people, but the default assumption should be about half a day.

Or testifying about how long it felt like.

you're right. i was only high for 20 minutes. happy now?

Mine lasted −12 + i hours, rotating through the imaginary plane.

Rotating as a function of what?

As a function of the observer: the machine elves!

definitely not hyperbole. last time i took LSD i dropped at 5pm before going to dinner and ended up at a bread factory 15 miles away at 5am watching them run the big mixers. no idea how i got there just remember walking all night.

That's... odd. Sure it was LSD? It shouldn't cause dissociation like that.

yea that's not normal for LSD at all. NBOMe?

they might be counting the “after glow” as part of the trip, others don’t
