    I know this is a touchy subject, but I'd like to know how often people have a bad trip. By bad trip, I mean less than enjoyable. I've heard from friends that say they feel like they're on an intense rollercoaster that they can't get off and start to panic, but I know worse than that can happen.

    So?

    It really sucks to be on a roller coaster and a bad trip at the same time!

    Only happened a few times. but I wouldn't say it was a "BAD TRIP" because I learned SOOOO Much even from those negative experiences but yes it was definitely freaky so I do know what your talking about. Each time stemmed from my own personal insecurities, if that helps you out any.

    My bad trips probably had to do with some bad acid cut with strychnine. My worst trip was when I could not control the rushes that started as blood pooling on the floor and started to flow to my feet. Once the pool of blood got to my feet, then it flowed up my legs, up my back, my neck and then when it got to my head, I thought I was gonna lose my mind. I had to fight the rushes back all night. My buddy drove me around all night - into the morning - trying to talk me down. At one point, I begged him to take me to the emergency room so I could get a shot of demerol to come down. He wouldn't do it, so we just kept driving around and the rushes kept coming. Finally, about 7 a.m. the rushes subsided and I was feeling normal. I had flashbacks for years - the color red triggered the flashbacks. I never want to have those rushes again.

    I agree.
    I have had two difficult trips, but I would not call them bad by any means.
    More like, they forced me to be honest with myself and showed me an alternative path....

    There are trips that aren't as fun as some but no I've never had a bad trip.

    on my second trip a few years ago a guess, i felt like i was going crazy and in some way hanging on to that piece of reality so i asked my friend to talk to me and such.
    it was a night trip... i don't like those..

    I've had one, but in hindsight I'm a much happier person now because of it. LSD showed me things that at the time I didn't want to see, but now I can say that I'm glad to have experienced that.

    I had a horrible trip this past weekend.
    I thought I was never going to come out of my trip.
    Every minute was an eternity.
    My phone broke.
    I wanted my friend to take me to the hospital because I convinced myself I was going insane.
    The tabs must have been strong because my friend took 1 and he tripped from 11 AM to 1 AM the next day...
    Then again, I dropped two and smoked 2 bowls right away...
    Dont know what caused the bad trip

    In the 60s and 70s I took my share of Psychedelics, LSD and all the naturals but haven’t done any since then. But the truth be known, I never had a bad trip but I have helped several friends who had bad trips. I'm not sure what that means, it’s just what happened.

    Lsd reveals your faults to you and smacks you in the face with them. For me it also revealed the faults of everyone i knew and humanity in general which was what i guess you could consider a bad trip, but still a good learning experience. Having a bad trip due to bad set and setting is different from facing hard truths. After those ten hits and being to heaven and hell and back its easy to let go and not worry about any of it.
