psychedelics and ssri's

[worldhealer]

I'm interested in what experiences you all have had in combining psychedellics with selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors.

I know that indoles and tryptamines are chemically similar to serotonin and tend to boost serotonin levels.

I started on 40 mg of fluoxetine (prozac) a day recently, and am curious what to expect the next time i trip.

An interesting side note -- on prozac colors seem to have the brightness that I associate with the first hour or so of an acid trip.

SSRIs tend to reduce the effects of most psychedelics to some degree.

i take 200mg of zoloft a day and have great mush mush trips and shit. i think they are stronger than trips i have when im not on it. you shouldn't be seeing anything, if you are, you might want to see a doctor, my friend hallucinated on paxil and had to see the doctor, it was due to a serious side effect.
