While rare, LSD trips can result in a psychological meltdown. A rough guideline for reducing the chances of a bad trip down to almost zero is to make sure your mindset is good, and your setting is good. This is what people mean when they say "set and setting". If you are severely depressed or paranoid, or you have schizophrenia, you will probably want to avoid LSD, as it could amplify these characteristics. Even if you are not, being with an experienced individual who has a positive mindset will bolster your own trip. Regarding setting, find an open, comfortable, and safe environment. Avoid dirty, cramped locations like small unkempt apartments, or overly crowded clubs. Daytime in nature with a few good friends is ideal.
