Taking LSD while you're on your period?

Looking for experiences from other menstruating folks who've tripped. I have a vacation planned during which time I plan to take LSD for the first time (I'm an experienced shroom tripper but this will be my first time with LSD). Well, my period came a week early this month so there's a good chance now that I'll be on my period during this planned vacation/trip in October. Is this a bad idea?

I don't have particularly bad period symptoms, but they are notable - moderate to intense cramps, some mild drops in mood. I am worried that it will interfere with the experience. Anyone else tripped while menstruating?

How do keep my tomatos from succumbing to blight/fungal growth with all this rain?

Is it time to consider using copper fungicide? We're getting a lot of rain here (I'm in 6b/Niagara) and I'm starting to worry about my tomatoes, which are in grow bags and spaced out but have a lot of thick foliage (see image - these are my Cherokee tomatoes).

When I went outside this morning to check on them, a couple plants had a little bit of blight (brown shriveled leaves) and a couple others had some yellowing that looked like the start of septoria leaf fungus.

I decided I wanted to be careful not to overprune this year, but now I am regretting it because the leaves are fairly tightly packed (except at the first 15-20cm above the soil - I did prune those leaves back) and I feel like I created the perfect conditions for blight to progress.

I didn't pick up mulch yet (kept trying to find a place that had actual straw, not hay, but no luck) so I guess I need to do that now. I have Neem oil, but I know it's not as useful for treating early blight/fungal infections as copper fungicide).

Looking for any tips on what I should be doing today and tomorrow to save my tomatoes. Thank you in advance!

Anyone else here have a BPD friend who chose you as their FP?

I recently figured out that a long distance friend of mine has BPD and that I'm her FP. When I gently and kindly set a boundary with her a few days ago, she immediately told me that she'd known all along I was starting to abandon her and that she questions if I was ever a good friend.

She also expressed jealousy that I have a supportive husband and close IRL friends. While I've put her DMs on mute for now, we unfortunately share space in a small group Discord. No one else in the Discord knows and I'm not too worried about losing the group even if they did (I'd get over it and move on if it came to that), but it's been interesting to watch her "perform" in there ever since I set the boundary. I think she's trying to show me that she doesn't only rely on me for friendship, but it's not very convincing and kind of sad to watch.

Anyway, I guess I'm just looking for validation from folks in a similar situation. I'm interested to hear from anyone else who's had to deal with being the FP of a BPD friend. Are you still talking to them or did you ultimately give up?

In my case, we're both very analytical and interested in emotional intelligence, but I've realized that she has been masking/fawning and only understands those things intellectually, not viscerally. The maturity gap is now apparent and I have the ick.

It's scheduled for this weekend at Firemen's Park. Has anyone gone to it before? How does it compare to other Renaissance Faires in the region?
