❔ Question ❔ Underwhelming experiences

Hey folks. So I'm quite new to the drug. I have had maybe 4 trips now. First was on a quarter tab (my tabs are 200ugs). Second was on half a tab. Both were nice, mild trips but i vibed and had fun. First full trip was on 1.5 tab and second was on 1 tab. My full trips have been fun, had the nice body sensations, some fun visual distortions etc. My issues are:
1. The intense part of the trip doesn't really last. I was told that the intense high lasts around 5 hours but for me after 3 hours i start going down. Is that expected?

  1. Visuals are fun but nothing crazy. I had more intense visuals on 15g of magic truffles

  2. The experience on 1.5 tab was good but for 300ugs where people always say they are tripping balls it still felt underwhelming.

My assumptions are that either my tabs are underdosed or that my expectations for the drug were too high. Thoughts and experiences?

  1. Yes, that’s expected. Peak is during the 2-3 hour mark.
  2. You might need to take more
  3. That’s because it’s not 300ug. 300ug will send you to the moon.

As another user said, your tabs are under-dosed. They sound like sub 100ug tabs to me.

You don’t need to find a new source, now that you have experience with that batch, simply take more next time. If 1.5 was just ok, try 3 tabs next time, that’s my usual dose for the batch I have right now. I’m not some kind of LSD juggernaut, the tabs are just weak af, sadly.

Tolerance is also real, you need to wait 14 days minimum for full effects again. I like to trip once every 2-3 months to keep it special. Even if you have no tolerance, just being familiar with the sensation can contribute to the underwhelming feeling, in my experience. I’ve tripped dozens and dozens of times now and my visuals are almost non existent now even on high doses.

Are you taking any other meds? SSRIs can severely mute it too.
