LSD

No, LSD is illegal in the Netherlands. It is listed on List I of the Opium Act, This means that you cannot legally buy or possess LSD.

However, there are two legal options to still work with an LSD experience within the safe guidance of Triptherapie:

1. Use of a legal LSD analogue
   There are analogs of LSD (such as 1cP-LSD or 1V-LSD) that are converted in the body into active LSD. These substances have almost the same effect and (for now) are not subject to the Opium Act, which allows them to be used legally in sessions.

2. Harm reduction through self-involvement
   When someone possesses LSD themselves, this can be brought in limited quantities to a guided session. Triptherapie Does not provide illegal drugs themselves, but offers only professional guidance and harm reduction to ensure the experience is safe and responsible.

The number of people who Triptherapie choose to undergo LSD (analog) sessions is relatively low compared to psilocybin (truffles). This is due to the image of truffles, the duration of the effect, and the studies that indicate the effectiveness of psilocybin. All of this while LSD has a similar experience to psilocybin, but is longer and more synthetic.

However, LSD offers unique benefits. While a truffel session often lasts four to six hours, an LSD experience can last eight to twelve hours, giving more time for deeper layers of self-exploration and spiritual experience. Additionally, some participants experience LSD as clearer and more structured, whereas truffles evoke a more organized and natural feeling. Both substances have their own qualities, but in essence they lead to similar insights, emotional processing, and an increased sense of connectedness.

The choice between truffles and LSD often comes down to personal preference, practical considerations such as the duration of the session, and the confidence that people have in the scientific evidence. Psilocybin is currently receiving a lot of attention in clinical research and in the media, which explains why truffle sessions are more popular. However, LSD deserves the same recognition as a valuable tool in therapy and personal growth, and could actually be an excellent choice for people seeking a longer, more structured experience.

LSD is often seen as one of the The most powerful psychedelics, But whether it is also the “strongest” depends on how you measure strength. A standard dose of LSD (about 100 micrograms) can elicit a very intense experience that lasts eight to twelve hours. The active amount is extremely small: LSD is active in micrograms, whereas most other drugs require milligrams or even grams. In that sense, LSD is indeed one of the strongest substances that exist.

It is possible to combine LSD with other psychedelics, but this requires extra caution. Each combination amplifies and extends the effects, making the experience more intense and less predictable. Within the context of Triptherapie targeting, we primarily focus on safety and harm reduction, and therefore we usually recommend working with one substance at a time. However, there are known combinations that occur in practice:

LSD + truffles

The combination of LSD and truffles or psilocybin mushrooms Can lead to an extremely profound experience. Both substances act on the serotonin system, causing the intensity to increase sharply. For most people, this is too heavy and difficult to control. Only very experienced travelers sometimes consciously choose this combination.

LSD + MDMA:

This combination is popular because LSD provides visual and spiritual depth, while MDMA enhances feelings of love, empathy, and connection. Although this is sometimes perceived as positive, it also increases the risk of nervous system overload and dehydration. Guidance and knowledge of dosage are crucial here.

If you are going on a trip for the first time with a macro dose, then LSD may not be the best choice. This is mainly due to the long duration and intensity From this drug. An LSD experience usually lasts eight to twelve hours, allowing beginners to not only learn the power of psychedelics, but also embark on a very long and intense journey at once. This can be tiring and sometimes overwhelming, especially when you don’t yet know how you react to psychedelics.

Therefore, many beginners choose to first psilocybin truffles. The duration of effect is shorter, usually four to six hours, making it more accessible for first-time users. Truffles also have a more friendly image and are supported by a large body of scientific research on their therapeutic effectiveness. This gives many people more confidence to start using them.

LSD could be a valuable choice for those who have already gained experience with truffles or other psychedelics and are looking for a new experience. longer, more structured trip. The experience is often described as clear, deep-reaching, and suitable for extensive self-exploration.

In summary: for beginners it is psilocybin usually a better first step, While LSD is particularly interesting for people who already have some experience and consciously choose the longer and more intense nature of this drug.
