Alcohol on shrooms or lsd... i hope this is just a hypothetical question!

 

[ginjawarrior]

you can drink like a fish on lsd and shrooms. it wont have so much of an affect on you till you start to come down

Thats not the point!!

Why drink when lucy is gracing her presences! Thats like a disgrace...

 

[ginjawarrior]

you clearly have never tasted a thick sweet drink like drambui or southern comfort while courting her the taste and feeling of it coating your throat is blissfull

but anyway why is it a disgrace? lucy isnt the jealous type she might be the center of attention in a crowded room but she is social able

While on psychedelics in general .... alcohol intoxication is greatly reduced.
With that said ... the user just tents to drink more to get the paticular
effect consuming .....running more of that shit through your system.

Alcohol will dehydrate your body ...
Alcohol will stress your liver ... as it recirculates other chemicals ...
Alcohol will not enlighten your psychedelic trip .... it will dumb it down.

But that is just my two cents.
I have stopped drinking when I found drugs.
As also, when the doctor told me that my liver looked like it was 60
when I was 20 ....
But there is nothing wrong with a glass of fine Vino ... with a friend.
Hey NDA ??



In terms of disgrace ... if you are talking about .... experiencing sweet tastes
wile on L ... that is one thing .... But Lucy is a jealous woman .... once
around she will always ride in the front.

With that said ... if I want as sweet taste in my mouth I am just going to
call on my girl and go 'downtown' that is sweeter still !

lol what debate? personally if im going raving then i just take lsd and smoke weed but if im going for a fire in the woods or planning on staying at a mates house tripping then alcohol is on my list of ESSENTIAL supplies

but its horses for courses some people will shun alcohol and lsd as they claim it will ruin their "spiritual" experiance while others will happily chug a beer as they know they'll enjoy it and will have just a good a trip as the people who dont

Let me tell you something my friend ....
Some people get high to laugh and dance and be social .... and some people like to get really HIGH.
So it all depends which type are YOU.
When I do some chemicals .... like for example Ket ..... or anything like ... any amount of alc ... will fuck up the secret combination. That is just how it works.

P.S I like to get Really High .... and I am not into laughing.
When I take lots of drugs ... I take them seriously.

YES alcohol will cross tolerance... it's basic biology...

...when you drink, or do drugs, or do caffeine, etc basically any type of stimulants your body will produce extra endoplasmic reticulum to process the whatever - causing you to have a higher tolerance. so, when you stop using whatever that's when the ER breaks down, hence become less tolerant...

 

[ginjawarrior]

lol i yet to meet someone who can enjoy lucy's embrace without a smile on their face whats wrong with getting really high and laughing i know i'm not content unless im really really high

no k and alcohol? i always found the k hole to be much deeper and darker when i've been imbibing the evil sauce. k almost seems tame on its own

Nope, alcohol only has a cross tolerance to other GABA agonists, such as benzos (xanax, klonopin, ativan) or ambien and lunesta. It won't effect 5ht2a agonists.

To a lower extent it DOES have cross tolerance with Ketamine though

Alcohol potentiates ketamine.

If I want to Potentiate K I will just do the right amount as to control the descend/ascend.
To mix alcohol ... just to get there ... would be vulgar.
But that is just me.

In terms of word play ... I will agree.

I'm 95% sure I would agree, just have never mixed ketamine and alcohol, so couldn't say.

It's just basic neuropharmocology to know that alcohol potentiates ketamine. Alcohol is also a NMDA antagonist (what a dissociative like DXM, ketamine, and PCP are). It's just it has a much lower affinity to the receptor, so you don't notice those effects until you drank a ridiculous amount because of tolerance issues.

oh dont get me wrong its not a combination that i intentionally work towards but if i get offered a sideways line it doesnt bother me if i had some drink

dont understand cross tolerance. I do know that when purchased in crystal form most will liquify lsd by useing 1grm. lsd crystal to 750 ml of gin or vodka and use this mix to dip cotton paper... alcohol does help take the adge off...
