Image removed. Here’s a readjusted script, including a trip report:
Combo name: Superflip (LSD/DXM/THC)
Lovingly named after the Rubik’s cube permutation (the best one), the superflip is a rather normal combination of substances–a psychedelic, a dissociative, and a cannabinoid. Do NOT use a serotonin-releasing psychedelic, like MDMA, in conjunction with DXM, as it will cause serotonin syndrome! These substances all have a psychedelic nature. Note that it is important to take THC orally, as this will potentiate psychedelic-esque effects. Indeed, even DXM is noted to have psychedelic properties–I can vouch.
I feel the name “super” is a little… done to death. However, in this case, the name is rather apt. The reason will be made apparent later.
DXM and THC both strongly potentiate LSD. If you’re daring, you could honestly use this as a way to get more use out of your tabs. It’s hard to argue with cost effectiveness these days, thanks to the wonderful work of orange. With this combination, a tab and a half of a $25 ten strip got me further than three tabs of a $100 ten strip.
It’s a solid combination, overall, but it’s far from being for the faint of heart. This one has some wild unpredictability in terms of strength. Start slow, and be patient. I found this combination to be highly enjoyable, with effort on my part.
In one word, though… it’s exhilarating.
19 April 2025
It is 1347 EST. I am in my parents’ living room, writing this. I am mentally preparing myself for the worst possible outcome, as this is, by far, my strongest trip yet. I am doing a drug combo I have named “Trichroma” (NOTE: renamed). It is to mix a psychedelic with DXM, and take an edible at the same time, named for being composed of three psychedelic-esque substances. Please read into DXM’s safety, as it is unsafe to mix with many substances. I have selected LSD, as it is my personal favourite psychedelic.
Planned dose:
- 300mg Dextromethorphan (Freebase)
- 200µg Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (Gel Tabs)
- 50mg of ∆9-THC (Orally)
Initial Notes
I’ll be fine. Probably.
(NOTE: This initial word was absolutely comical in hindsight.)
Report
+0:00 (1500) - Initial 150mg dextromethorphan dose.
+0:05 - Deciding to reduce LSD dose to 150µg. Split the tabs as evenly as I could, but gel is tricky to work with. Taking about a tab and a half, plus a tiny, long sliver of an unknown amount at +1:15.
+0:13 - Opened a bottle of Pedialyte. This is for later, when my coordination will certainly be hindered. Pedialyte is hydrating, with some nutritional value, making it an excellent choice for a small amount of energy, when eating is challenging. Also useful for sweating, which will certainly come up on this relatively hot day. It is 26º.
+0:15 - Elected to dose 50mg of diphenhydramine, for nausea. Allowed another 100mg if necessary.
+0:30 - Additional and final 150mg of dextromethorphan.
+0:45 - 100mg of DPH. Effects are ramping up. I feel a little heavy, and pleasantly warm. It’s nice. This is likely the small amount of DPH going to work, combined with the DXM.
+0:50 - Eyes are getting a little dry, and my stomach hurts a little bit. Nothing unbearable. I still feel in a good mood. By the 1:15 mark, I should know whether this will go well or not.
+0:55 - DXM ramping up in intensity. I have a bit of time left to mission abort.
+1:00 (1600) - Nausea ramping up. Coordination is hindered. I think I should have dosed less DXM, and I’m regretting it at this point.
+1:15 - Threw up. Benadryl, you’ve failed me. Honestly thankful, though. Obviously, not dosing LSD at this point. There has been a delay.
+1:30 - Willed myself to just try a 50µg dose of LSD–half a tab, and a sliver. Noting somewhat prominent DPH visuals. Prominent DPH closed eye visuals, with its characteristic smeary appearance.
+1:55 - About 25mg of THC. Hoping it’ll mitigate that nausea
+2:00 (1700) - Considering dosing 100µg of LSD, though I feel a bit rough. The nausea is fairly bad at this point.
+2:10 - Forced myself a 100µg dose of LSD, deciding I’m ready to follow through.
It was the most beautiful day.
I sat in the backyard, watching my flat-coated retriever, Vanta, run around with two other lovely dogs. The sight of these dogs enjoying the outdoors simply touched my soul in a way that nothing else ever has.
Of all of the days, this was the most beautiful one.
I sat with my father, and discussed this experience, as I watched the most inexplicably, earth-shatteringly powerful visuals I have ever encountered. The Earth itself was a painting. The trees, the clouds, everything was alive.
Of all of the days, this was the best one.
If I sat still, fractal geometry would envelop my entire vision. The clouds folded on themselves. The trees breathed. It was a spectacle.
Of all of the days, this was the most perfect one.
I must note, at the beginning of the trip, I was experiencing deja vu, and almost convinced myself I was in the wrong universe. It felt as if reality itself seemed to stop being believable. I remained calm. When I did, I realised I was in for an incredible healing experience.
The staggering beauty of my mediocre suburban Kentucky backyard was exactly what I needed at this point. Every aspect of existence felt overtly positive. After all, those trees are going to waste not being enjoyed.
It truly was the most beautiful day of them all.
The world must stay appreciative.
The world must stay fascinated.

Yeah. LSD has made a night and day difference for me. I’ve shown unusual affinity for it, and it has been easily the most impactful and important decision I have ever made.
Psychedelics have been my favourite form of expressive art. It’s a shame we’ve been branded criminals hooligans. We just have a different way of doing the same thing–enjoying life. This was my way, and it’s been a special and beautiful journey of self positivity.
This is my life’s work. I am a true psychonaut. I can onlynrecall a single bad high, and I feel in excellent physical and mental health, despite a broken world.
LSD has taught me two lessons: Appreciation, and yesterday, fascination. I believe I have many more things to learn, like friendship, love, and empathy. I may understand these things, but not as well as I could.
For me, nothing is ever good enough. Not in a way that I feel unsatisfied, but because I will never stop growing, and will never become stagnated.
There is always tomorrow. Life is well worth living, despite its pain. I hope to share my journey, and words of advice with the world, for years to come.
Now, I can truly say my name is Vivi.
My only worry with it is the same worry I have with any kind of mood enhancer (e.g. caffeine): what am I like without it, and can I enjoy life when I’m off it
Psychedelics are pretty unique drugs marred by lots of misinformation and media bias. The relevant bit for this though is that you aren’t on them all the time. Habitual users may use them up to once a week, and even that is pushing it over the long term. Many users treat them with deep respect and have a more ritualized usage. For example, instead of getting high every weekend they try to make time once every month or two and it’s a very intentional experience with music or nature or both, or whatever else works for them.
So you might be high for 8 hours every month or two. That’s a pretty realistic estimate. Yet despite that tiny amount of time spent actually on the drug, people do say it changes their life for the better. It’s still not for everybody though. They can be mentally challenging in ways that are difficult to describe, but it’s a lot to get into and trying to summarize would not be helpful.
Well thanks for taking the time to explain nonetheless!
Drugs can be good for the mind without harming the body, or making other days feel dull. It takes knowing your limits, and respecting those limits. Some substances simply aren’t compatible with some individuals. It happens to be that I can use just about anything for overall positive benefit.
Ah, and it also takes following the lessons you learn.
Perseverance, and patience.
Maybe one day I will try it. I’m just worried the insights I get from it will derail me in some way. Still, can’t know without trying it once!
