Yup, me too. I've never had open-eye visuals even when i take most of an eighth. But wow it seriously removes the walls from your thinking!

Even a small dose of LSD will produce moving patterns and tracers. But, I'm not advocating you try it because it's psychologically quite risky. This drug can do much more than break down walls. One strange trip has to potential to change who you are.

I've done plenty lsd and psilocybin, I had had trips on both substances with very few open eye visuals and also plenty of open eye visuals. It really depends on your mind on the time of taking them. I typically will not get open eye visuals on just 1 hit of lsd. Damn near everytime on either substance, I will get closed eye visuals though.
