‘Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas’ by Hunter S Thompson- it’s a classic!

Thanks, I always assumed it was autobiographical, I'll give it a go

There is a stark realism that shows he has definitely “been there” but the craziness and quantities involved have to be fiction- I don’t believe anyone could walk away from those levels! (Even Jonny Depp in the film version!)
Let us know your view!

Have you ever read ‘The Acid House’ by Irvine Welsh. A book of short stories the majority of which centre around people on an LSD trip. Very very funny book

Fkn love all his books... filth, acid house, trainspotting, there all so close to real life for Irvine not to have dabbled in drugs...

Weird I was talking to my mate about that one yesterday, neither of us could remember if there were any LSD related stories it's been so long

The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test
by Tom Wolfe

A classic.

If you're even remotely into late 60s psychedelia you must read this book.

Non fiction but key.

Just come round my house on a weekend you won't need to read a novel. Lol. 🍄😁

Spot on mystery man!

there is a great movie directed by Ken Russell called Altered States, the original novel was by Paddy Chayefsky.

Classic text - well worth reading in full, not just his description of the mescaline experience.

I had a copy with my extensive handwritten notes comparing some of his description with my first psylocybin experience. But to this day I had never had mescaline.

Talking about mescaline Carlos Castaneda's Don Juan trilogy is worth a look although it is hard to separate fact from fiction.

Trilogy? The first 3 books?

The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe. A bit of insight into the history and counterculture. And as already mentioned, Doors of Perception by Aldous Huxley.

Naked Lunch by William S Borroughs

“LSD my problem child” is a really good book by Albert Hoffmann the person who was the first to take LSD and discover it. And “How to change your mind” is another good book

and a great series now on Netflix :-)

Inherent Vice by Thomas Pynchon contains an awesome acid sequence about 100 pages in. The Illuminatus trilogy by Robert Anton Wilson also has many mind bending episodes.

Philip k dick- many are inspired and involve these themes try Ubik or “the three stigmata of Palmer eldritch” but the best writer of the suggestions you have received so far is Tom Wolfe- the story of Ken Kesey writer and 60s iconoclast- “the electric kool aid acid test”- a classic

“Trippers” by William.J.Booker
“The Mad Artist” by Roger Keen
Especially the latter as he describes his trip on microdots. Funny and terrifying.

Island by Aldous Huxley.

The BIBLE

the best of all time is the teachings of don Juan by carlos casteneda. It is amazing. and dont care about people saying its not real, its real, its just written in a fictional way to make it seem like legitimate research. its one of the best novels ever written.

Have a look at Irvine Welsh bro/sis he's defo took some of the love liquid ✌️✌️

Has to be the TELETUBBIES you don't need any pycadelics watching that so it saves money.

Hey friend, sounds like you have a great project on yoru hands. I would highly recommend "LSD and the Mind of the Universe: Diamonds from Heaven" by Chris B bases his research on the grandfather Stan Grof's high dose LSD therapy. There are so many amazing insights which would help you in your script.

Good luck and when you finish would be very interested in reading :-)

Peace, love and Connection 🙏

Hey Family,

Try "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test" by Tom Wolfe.

This non-fiction book delves into the experiences of author Ken Kesey and his group of friends, known as the Merry Pranksters, as they embark on a cross-country journey experimenting with various mind-altering substances. The story captures the spirit of the 1960s counterculture movement and offers a firsthand account of their wild adventures, psychedelic trips, and exploration of consciousness. It provides a unique insight into the impact of these substances on individuals and their interactions with society.

Peace and Respect

My diary lol but you're not having that

At the end of trailer park boys, the main characters consume a lot mushrooms. So much that they turn into cartoons, which leads into the shows animated series.

Dying Inside by Robert Silverberg has a telepath character undergoing a bad acid trip by proxy

Ecstasy Club, you can get it from America on eBay. And automated alice

'Stone Junction' by Jim Dodge.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Hunter Thompson
A reality tip - LSD effects drop off the more frequently it is taken - if your characters are dropping tabs more than once a week, then they are no longer tripping

Hi desydesy

That is a very good point which I made lately about trying to have tow mushroom trips back to back. It doesn't work for the same reasons.

Your post reminded me of - not fiction - but those horrible stories abut project MkUltra.

According to wikipedia Ken Kesey himself first encountered LSD in an MkUltra funded trial.

I remember the book passage where he described a squirrel dropping an acorn sounding blue.

What I meant by horrible stories is those stories of them keeping people on acid for days on end.

Not sure if it's true.

That being said there is a well known and hilarious youtube clip of the Bristish Army undergoing the same kind of military research regimen in 1964 I think.

You do know the dealers will approach you with hash, coke and xtc on the beachfront. They are all from Senegal, same with the whores. No need to risk the flight when the local police are paid off;) have a fantastic trip, it’s awesome if you’re young;)

they def know what carts are in dubai. they were turning mine upside down so see how quickly the liquid ran. luckily it was just a normal vape.

checked bagged always.

You’ll probably be sat next to some scouse boy on the plane who’s got a few hundred gurners up his bum.

Just relax and put it in the check in luggage.

checked bag.

up the shoot!!

There’s hella weed in Ibiza it’s not worth it imo.
