In reply to LSD and Antidepressants.., posted by jay on April 26, 2002, at 18:20:56
Hmmmmmmmmm......... OK, Jay, I wasn't going to respond to your post. But WHY IN HELL would you take a hallucinogen if you are being treated for anxiety? Geezzz.. do you bungie jump for sh*ts and giggles too? I hear Russian roulette can give you quite a charge too.
OK, now that I've vented that, I'll answer your question. In my experience, and from my understanding, hallucinogens will amplify whatever mood you are in when you take them. So, as have been posted, setting is critical to not totally spazing out. I did acid once about 22 years ago, and it was the worst 15 hours of my life. I've done shrooms and pot too in the day, and I know there were times that went bad as well. However, all that was before I was taking any meds. I do take Wellbutrin now, and personally, I think you will be putting a tax on your cardiovascular system by the addition of acid etc.... as WB has psychostimulant properties. I think it's a poor decision, and an unnecessary risk. And I would ask: why are you taking legit meds if you don't want a "normal" mental status? If you want to live in a blur, then scrap the AD meds and go street-hoping. Sorry if you think I'm being harsh, but I think you are being stupid (albeit, you did have at least an inkling of thought when you made this post). I could tell you all my personal horror stories with self-medication, but that's not what you were asking about. That's it for now.Fire away.
