This trip happened last friday night. I have very recently been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and prescribed lithium carbonate. I read a lot of reports of very negative experiences with lithium and LSD and I also noticed that most of those experiences involved people taking large 4+ hits of LSD. I took the risk of having a seizure to prove a point that lithium and LSD can be taken together safely when I take the proper precautions. I knew that if the trip got too intense I could always abort the trip by taking two ambien and falling asleep, but I also kept the Clonazepam handy in case I was getting too overwhelmed.

I took the LSD at about 7:34 and me and my friend who took two hits were expecting it to kick in as usual in about an hour. So after an hour of waiting and mixing music we still felt nothing but I insisted that I felt something and I was right.
[Erowid Note: Driving while intoxicated, tripping, or extremely sleep deprived is dangerous and irresponsible because it endangers other people. Don't do it!] We got in the car and drove just around the corner to his house and immediately when we got in to his house the lights and colors were insanely vibrant and he kept saying he wasn't feeling much so I told him to drink some water to push it into his system. We put on a movie and smoked some herb and the movie was hilarious but the visuals were getting too intense for me so I took a Clonazepam and we went and smoked a cig. We came back and drank some soda and the sugar in the soda made everything come to life it was like everything was moving and flowing. I definitely felt like I was ten times higher than he was and I was only on one dose.
I definitely felt like I was ten times higher than he was and I was only on one dose.
So after another good movie he drove me home and when I got back I was still tripping HARD and decided to just try and go to sleep so I took my ambien and laid in bed with my eyes closed tripping my balls off for like a half hour and then finally fell asleep.

Woke up four hours later, took my next dose of lithium and the weirdest thing happened. When the lithium kicked in it felt like my trip started up again, clearly the LSD was still in my system but it was only 18 hours later max.

It increased my trip approximately 500% or 5x's meaning taking one dose was in essence taking five.
