      Lsd is often distributed and consumed via small paper squares called blotter paper. The paper is thick like cardstock. Sometimes with colorful psychedelic artwork printed on it.

      The lsd is diluted in a solution and the paper is soaked in the solution. Usually alcohol.

      The tiny microscopic lsd crystals deposit on the paper. The blotter paper is divided into 1cm squares.

      Lsd is neutralized by many chemicals , including chlorine (found in tap water) and stomach enzymes. It cannot be swallowed and still have an effect.

      To take LSD, a person will place squares (typically one square is 1x 100ug dose) of the paper on the tounge or under it. And hold for about 15 minutes. Some people take more than one. It can’t kill you. But it can lead to accidents in high doses that can kill you. So it’s not risk free even if health risks are low.

      Also I said ug. Not mg. The lsd drug is very unique in that it has high potency at micrograms. Fentanyl is another drug that has that property . But it is rare.

      The lining of the mouth (mucus membranes) allows for easy transfer of the drug into the blood stream. That’s true for a lot of drugs actually.

      This is why lsd has such a unique drug delivery method though. It can’t be swallowed and it should be used in very small doses.

      Lsd is also very resistant to degeneration. Oxygen, sunlight, and neutralizing chemicals like chlorine can degrade it. But if it’s stored properly it can last a very very long time. This is another rare property it has.

      It’s also clear, tasteless, and no odor.

      I’m a perception researcher and , of course, this would be a drug on my radar. So I know quite a bit about it. I’ve given a lecture on psychedelics. It’s a fascinating topic.

      Also I’m generally interested in psycho-pharmacology because , well, it’s interesting.

      If you want to learn more interesting facts about LSD and other psychedelics, ask away.

        LSD absolutely can be swallowed, I don’t understand where all these myths come from and how they keep being propagated over decades and decades when it is a very simple thing looking it up.

        Incorrect about acid in the stomach. Most DOX and nbome chems are neutralized by stomach acid and during the mid 2010 acid drought swallowing tabs was considered the simplest way to avoid unwanted DOX trips.

        They’re divided in 0.5x0.5 cm.

        You can totally eat a tab and still get high.

        Nowadays is hard to find 100ug doses. The minimum I had found is 150ug. Anything over 400ug isn’t LSD but Nbomb that is dangerous and should be avoided.

        Honestly, damn. That sounds like a very interesting topic. If I wanted to learn more what resources would you recommend? (preferably textbooks/articles)

        How much acid have you taken yourself? Because it definitely works when swallowed.

        Wait, is two tabs unusual? Like sure the default among my friends was one, but two is for when you really want to experience it and is more for constructive trips or to hallucinate and three is for when you need even more but you’re playing with fire there

      LSD usually comes soaked into small clips of paper usually just called ‘tabs’, which come initially as sheets with tear lines seperating. You tear off one, pop it on your tongue, and suck on it.

      This guy had two tabs from the look of it and is about to probably have a very spiritual experience.

      • shneancy@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        alternatively you can just keep a tab on your tongue or between your gums and you won’t have to wait a few hours, just roughly one hour

        (lsd absorbs wherever it is in your body, but your mouth is closer to your brain where you want it ending up)

      Everyone talks about the drug part, but not the rest. So, filling in on this one.

      The black thing right there is The Kaaba, the holiest place of Muslims. People on the background are completing Ṭawāf - holy pilgrimage to The Kaaba, which ends in going around it seven times in a counter -clockwise direction.

      People there normally wear special clothes and chant holy phrases as they go around. For Muslims, it’s a very serious and spiritual event.

      The dude poses in a way that says “hey, I’m gonna get spiritual with THIS” while completely disregarding every rule about being there.

      (Muslims and other knowledgeable folks are welcome to correct me)

        Also this is what inside of Kaaba looks like if anyone was curious.

      LSD is often distributed on small pieces of paper that you dose by putting them on your tongue and letting them dissolve.

      I am guessing he has some sort of drugs on his tongue? Could use a couple more pixels.

      anything more than 1 tab always sends me to the dark side

      • oopsgodisdeadmybad@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        Would depend on the strength of them. “1 tab” is not an amount.

        For me, once I got used to it, I’ve never wanted to take it more than once every other month or so. Feels like I need that much time to put everything back together.

      Well, he has two tabs, so more like two spiritual experiences at the same time instead.

    This thread is academia with no tangible experience telling users they are wrong about the drug they use. It’s both hilarious and very concerning. The OP has next to no idea what he is talking about despite claiming to have researched the topic. Perhaps the literature is severely lacking, perhaps the cut and dry nature of research misses a lot of the obvious, I don’t know. But a person claiming to be educated on the subject saying swallowing your dose degrades the chemical, implying it won’t work, concerns me. The further pushing of public myth without substantiation (lipstick bs) makes me concerned about the academic integrity of everything said before. They even admit that they are spreading unverified information. But also, if this is where you’re getting your information about LSD, you’re already on the wrong track. DM me if you want to talk with somebody experienced about LSD.

    • CannonFodder@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I have no knowledge either way. But what if he’s right and you’ve been wasting half your lsd by swallowing? That would be very sad. Have you tried sticking it in the roof of your mouth, or whatever he’s suggesting?

      source
      • JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        Of course I have, when I am certain it’s LSD. There is zero noticeable difference. Hundreds if not thousands of doses, more than a decade of use.
