DOSE:

100 ug oral 1P-LSD (blotter / tab)
  T+ 0:30 10 mg oral 4-HO-MET (capsule)
BODY WEIGHT: 85 kg
Combination of 1P-LSD 100 ug and 4-HO-MET

1P by itself is quite okay for me, but it has certain negatives that, for example, AL-LAD doesn't have for me. As for 4-HO-MET, it's a good substance except for its unpleasant comedown (extreme fatigue) and mild nausea during the come-up.

Set: Well-rested, no issues. Breakfast: Oatmeal, being moderate is better than overeating. Consumed it an hour before starting the session. Preparation for the day: Ready to accept.

Settings: Alone at home (Note! Taking hallucinogens alone requires experience, as there's no one who can rescue you from a bad trip if it happens, just embrace it). Inside is much stronger for hallucinations than outside. On a big TV, play a 10-hour 4K video of a forest (bird sounds, forest ambiance). In the background, playing the album 'Musica per Chakra, Meditazione e Reiki vol. 2', with the volume set low so it's in the background and doesn't disturb.

Dosage: 100 ug (1 piece of 1P-LSD blotter) and 20 mg 4-HO-MET.

00:00: I took the blotter as the first step. This is because when it kicks in first, it reduces the nausea during the come-up.

00:30: Measured homet 20 mg on a microscale into a gel capsule and swallowed it with water.

00:50: Initial signs of 1P-LSD onset, relief from joint pain (I'm 38 years old, I'm getting old), mild anxiety about the change in state, overall the transition from normal state to the trip state doesn't sit well with me; there's a kind of struggle, guilt, and a multitude of things. I want to, but internally, there's a certain kind of fear that I perceive as a degree of anxiety about what I've done.

01:20: Definite onset of 1P-LSD effects, it's starting to get hectic, a space is forming slightly above my head, and overall, the colorfulness of the visuals is increasing (gamma boost); colors are vivid, and mandalas begin to form on the white wall.

01:30: 4-HO-MET is starting to kick in, intensifying the colors, hallucinations are now 3D and extend into the space, any image literally comes to life (similar to those art videos on TikTok where everything changes, AI transform videos). 3D mandalas are right around me, some visuals are explicitly similar to the effects of DMT.

2:00: Ego death, complete bliss, total couch lock (unpleasant walking), a phase of a small child, an inability to identify and categorize objects. I'm looking at a tea cup, and it's an interesting object, but I don't know its name or purpose. It's like this with almost everything; an inability to solve problems. Even just changing a video on YouTube is challenging. There was a high level of light intensity in the room; even adjusting the room's lighting was very difficult. Nausea has subsided, anxieties have subsided, overall acceptance of the state is setting in.
Nausea has subsided, anxieties have subsided, overall acceptance of the state is setting in.


2:30: What I like most about this combination is that my mind withdraws inward, not outward. I immerse myself in my own subconscious, wandering in a hyper-space (it's better than DMT in this regard; it's not as hectic, more subtle, but I am deeply inside). The main difference here compared to the combo of 1P and AL-LAD is that this one goes inward into the psyche rather than outward (more of an indoor experience).

3:00: Physical euphoria sets in (partially resembling MDMA effects), a massive space above the head, lying down but feeling pleasant sensations throughout the body, a massive increase in dopamine and norepinephrine. I find myself in a hyper-space filled with indescribable mandalas, and when I close my eyes, it's even more intense, geometric patterns filling a vast space (somewhat like a hall or the room with pillars in the Amsterdam Audiovisual Museum; it was brutal). I struggle with cycling back to the present moment; when I close my eyes, it feels like I forget to open them for a long time. When I stare at an image for a while, I'm so fascinated that I can't consciously shift my focus to another stimulus or change rooms. However, changing surroundings is essential; in the bedroom, it's completely quiet, and every 15 minutes, I tried to change my location to get different stimuli.

4:00: Peak. I begin to feel that physical euphoria is at its maximum, and the state isn't increasing anymore. This lasts for about 30 minutes. Subsequently, physical euphoria is the first to fade, and of course, the mandalas and hallucinations continue, but from an absolute perspective, it's a bit disappointing. The drop from that height feels somewhat nostalgic. Then experiments begin: I stared at myself in the mirror for 10 minutes to train the power of my mind; it's quite interesting.

6:00: The state definitively declines. Its intensity is still at the level of a classic 4-HO-MET trip, which lasts longer than 1P (4-HO-MET always outlasts LSD, so if you want more of an LSD-like state than 4-HO-MET, you can either take 150 ug of 1P or less 4-HO-MET, like 10 mg, for example). In my case, since there was an excess of 4-HO-MET, fatigue set in, which was my current condition.

7:00: A person is tired from the state but can't sleep yet. Light is still visible, and a person doesn't fall asleep because of the high levels of dopamine and norepinephrine.

12:00+: Finally went to sleep; vivid, colorful dreams. I didn't get much sleep. I don't usually have such vivid dreams; they weren't nightmares or anything like that. The REM phase is insane.

The next day: The state was challenging and strong. I still see colors (gamma boost), hallucinations are gone. Overall, I'm in a normal state, but I need coffee. I'm slightly tired, but the mood is elevated. This combination is very suitable for self-exploration, understanding oneself as a human being. However, I recommend it for balanced individuals who can handle a potential bad trip; there were some here and there, but the euphoric phase usually prevails. If it wears off, it can return to a bad trip, or it may not.
