> possibly I'm high but I find this rather amusing. Enjoy but don't play doctor until you get your degree.

I'm not saying it's safe. In fact I think there's significant potential for harm from careless use of psychs, and I can't recommend it from a safety perspective.

That being said, if you were going to use it - and this goes for any drug - you MUST test it. You cannot OD on 4 tabs of LSD. If it's actually 2C-B (it's half the price) then you could die.

If you're on the fence - don't take it.

If you were going to anyway - take it in a way that minimizes harm.

You must be thinking of something like 25B-NBOMe, not 2C-B. 2C-B is not potent enough to be dosed on blotter, and its lethal dose is unknown but expected to be quite high. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2C-B

hey, it was and is all super friendly.

and I am not saying it is unsafe. (have no idea, never partook. naturally exhibited behavior that apparently the "initiated" will interpret as micro-cruising. just this very day was attentively looking at bark, but thankfully no one caught me in the act.)

so can we agree as hackernews friends that you exhibited questionable judgement (all ok, who is perfect) and you shouldn't go around giving advice on taking mind altering chemicals?

"lsd is great, you should try it" is fine. "take this much and if you're on this is fine. i survived" is not, imho.

I guess I should have worded it differently.

The dose I took was actually ~1/2 a tab, as compared to starting with a full tab (the exact ug is basically impossible to know). Some people would view this as "wasting it". I think starting with a full tab would likely be overwhelming for some people, but I don't mean to say any ug is "safe" or recommended. It's just that a lot of people are going to do it anyway, and if they do I'd rather they have the best chance at being safe. This stuff isn't really well medically documented so it's basically all off "experiences".

I haven't used it in years, and I wasn't doing super well at the time.

tbh am possibly too risk averse to have taken lsd on other medication myself, much less a-d. Depression sucks. Glad and hope you are doing better these days.
