Been depressed lately. Want to try acid...

Hey, I don’t think there’s any way for someone here to know whether LSD can help you or not, I think the best advice is to not take it yet, to research like you are and make that decision when you are sure.

LSD may not necessarily give you an easy break from depression as you may have to face why you are depressed, which can bring those feelings to the surface and amplify them as part of the healing process. While psychedelics may help to lift some out of depressive mind-states, I definitely prefer to wait until I’m feeling happy and healthy and would recommend the same.

I think the suggestions to try meditation are good as it can also help to open your mind and give a new perspective in a less forceful way. If you should choose to use LSD then meditation will also help to make the most of and integrate the experience. I hope you feel better, being depressed for a while is a natural part of life, especially after a break up ;) try not to dwell on it too much, all things must pass. :)
