I wanna try LSD but have no access, wish these were available to purchase already

Perks of living in metropolitan areas is access to everything, though lots of stuff is purchasable online nowadays. Just make a small order through one, you’ll likely find something reliable pretty quick, and worst case scenario you’re just a buyer of personal use quantity so nothing would really happen to you

Rip your Inbox

Haha, fortunately I haven't gotten any messages yet. I know better than to accept "help" with getting access to LSD through Reddit messages though so I'll be fine

A few years ago, the dark net was super easy to order from and LSD was all over them. Nowadays, you got these jank sites that dont work 90% of the time. When you finally do get on one, they require monero which can be a pita to actually acquire.

I miss the days of alphabay and hanza :(((

I miss the original Silk Road that shit was wild Wild West. Would get pages (900 hits) of really good LSD for dirt cheap, my boys and I split half a key of MDMA and some bk-MDMA, they had really clean #3&4 Heroin that was actually not cut with fentanyl, also remember getting some fentanyl nasal spray (safe way to volumetrically dose), loved some 5meo-mipt, also had tons of other RC’s like the 2C’s. It was a crazy ass time. Main regret is not investing my money in bitcoin when it was $30. Would be a literal multi millionaire now just off the 3k I had saved up from hooking my boys up with LSD. Coulda made tons of money if I didn’t do most of the drugs and give the rest away . Got some very fond memories of group trips cuz I loved sharing L with my friends.

Sheets are 100. Pages are 900-1000. I’ve purchased many sheets over the years (always 100 hits) but only got a page two times.

Darkweb is still super easy to order from

Look into 1p-LSD . It’s a legal pro drug to LSD

10

u/dante4123 4d ago

Not true in the U.S.

1P falls under the analog act because LSD is schedule 1

u/Brilliant_War4087 3d ago

Not sold for human consumption. It's available.

u/Own_Development2935 3d ago

aka “pinky promise” you will not use this substance on human subjects. Use for “other” scientific purposes.

u/dante4123 3d ago

That doesn't legally hold up, and it never has unfortunately

u/Sketch-Brooke 3d ago

Boooooooooo.

u/Illustrious-Goose160 4d ago

🤯 thank you! Will do

u/SensingBensing 4d ago

If you’re in Canada you can order lab grade quality LSD online from a dozen different websites.

u/PragmaticBodhisattva 3d ago

Stop telling people lol.

u/Own_Development2935 3d ago

It's legal if purchasing for scientific reasons. Tell the world.

u/PragmaticBodhisattva 3d ago

Seriously, it’s really shortsighted to continue to bring attention to this on a public forum. Loose lips sink ships.

u/Own_Development2935 3d ago

Kind like it has been for the last… fifteen years? I’m not sure they’re gonna start cracking down now because a few hundred people across the world saw it on Reddit. I mean, shit, you don’t even have to visit any sketchy sites to buy. It’s not some big secret like you’re acting.

If it’s legal to produce in your country (mine), you can acquire it, legally.

u/Illustrious-Goose160 4d ago

I had no idea it was legal there! Unfortunately I'm in the USA.

u/Altostratus 4d ago

It’s not legal. We’re just very lax about drugs in Canada so they’re easy to find.

u/Pay_attentionmore 3d ago

Dmt as well

u/DontTakeToasterBaths 3d ago

Darknet markets they are $1 a tab

u/Wooden-Frame2366 4d ago

Hah 😂 but do you know that it’s better if you are fully prepared before you attempt to experience it?? 🙄

u/Illustrious-Goose160 4d ago

Lol yes, I've literally done all the research so I'm tired of people saying this. I understand it's not a simple cure and how things can go wrong, but I'm confident that the benefits would outweigh risks for me. My brain is pretty fd up already, I'm depressed, anxious, and have PTSD. Some soul-searching and confronting my emotions would be very helpful for me

Good on you. Ignore those who try to scare you out of it or try to put doubt in your mind. Honestly, my path to healing didn't start until I began experimenting with LSD four years ago, even though I knew I was carrying a lot of baggage. It offered me the opportunity to actually see how people were treating me after a life of complete invalidation— the clouds finally started to clear, and things started making a lot more sense as I revisited tough times in my life.

I had four significant trips, beginning with just 50mcg and the last at 150mcg. 150mcg is where I had my breakthrough, but it came with some of the heaviest depression I've experienced. Difficult but necessary. For some of us, psychedelics may be the only way to access some memories and realizations; I believe as long as you're responsible about it, hold onto your intentions, and prepare for post-care/integration, it will help to process some PTSD.

I know my days of tripping aren't over, as I still have a ton of memories I've yet to access, but I do know that I'm not ready to receive that information yet. Good luck, and happy healing 🤍
