OJ and LSD are like an oreo meant to be together


oj and lsd
A widespread urban myth claims that drinking orange juice (OJ) can stop or lessen the effects of an LSD trip. Another version of the myth suggests that OJ enhances or prolongs the effects. Neither of these claims is supported by evidence; orange juice has no reliable effect on an LSD experience.
Origin of the myth
The myth's origin is unclear, but the connection between citrus and psychedelics may be due to a misunderstanding related to grapefruit.
Grapefruit interaction: Grapefruit juice is known to inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme, which affects how the body processes many medications.
Unrelated to LSD: However, LSD's effects are primarily governed by its interaction with serotonin receptors in the brain, not by the CYP3A4 enzyme.
A "lost in translation" myth: It is possible that the known drug interaction with grapefruit juice morphed into the unfounded myth about orange juice affecting an acid trip.
The legend of the "Orange Man"
A separate but related urban legend from the 1960s tells the story of a man who took acid and permanently believed he was an orange or a glass of orange juice.
Origin: The story circulated in the media as early as 1966, likely as a scare tactic to warn against the dangers of LSD.
No evidence: There is no evidence that this story is true.
Enduring appeal: The legend's surreal and comical image of a terrified man became an infamous piece of drug lore that has continued to spread.
How LSD works
LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide), commonly known as acid, is a powerful hallucinogenic drug that fundamentally alters perception, mood, and cognitive processes.
Serotonin receptors: LSD's effects are primarily caused by its binding to serotonin receptors, especially the 5-HT2A receptor in the prefrontal cortex. This affects brain circuits that regulate mood, perception, and behavior.
Duration of effects: Because the body has already metabolized the drug by the time the effects begin, they cannot be stopped once they have started. An LSD trip can last for up to 12 hours.
Unpredictability: LSD's effects are notoriously unpredictable and can vary greatly from person to person and from trip to trip. The experience can range from euphoric and enlightening to terrifying and paranoid ("a bad trip").
Important safety warning
There is no "cure" for an LSD trip, and drinking orange juice will not help with a bad one. In the event of a terrifying or overwhelming experience, it is critical to seek a safe environment with a sober, trusted person. Medical help should be sought immediately if a severe psychological reaction or overdose occurs.

That happened to me once, actually. I don't know what they put on the drink (and didn't notice until after the fact) but I did drink it and I have basically forgot almost everything about that night. Chances are it wasn't intended for me, since it was a party with plastic glasses, but in any case I was the one that ended up drinking whatever it was.

Better me drinking it than any of the girls there, that's for sure.

Probably just mix it with a can of monster and see what happens.
Anybody remember The Simpsons and the Chilli episode or the one where he seeks his roots and contaminates the entire town of lsd?
