Well this is what I really want to fix. When things start to get really intense I start to have a bad trip...nothing to crazy like screaming or fear of death or anything like that. But I do start to have a lot of fear of the trip being to intense. Basically I just want to be normal again, which I don't like. Because the whole point that I do them is to break through...What advice is there for me to flow and enjoy the shrooms even when they're really intense. I was by myself when this happened but I want to be able to handle them during any circumstance. Because I like them when I'm not having a bad trip (which is never a majority of the time.) For the most part I'm having a good time so i don't want a 30 min bad trip keep me from doing them again. Thanks for the help.
unfortunatley there aren't any "tricks" you can do aside from having the right setting and company, just remember that it's your own mind you're exploring is the best advice I can give...try to find the good in the bad, they definitely bring character flaws to the surface and throw them right in your face, be open to learn about yourself and the world around you and if there are things that bother you, change them. I hope you have many safe and pleasant trips!
"positive" music, without a doubt is a life saver on a bad trip (in my opinion) when I say positive I mean Grateful Dead not Dark Side Of The Moon (that WILL make a bad trip worse) other than music, kava extract may help, very soothing and relaxing
It's too bad there isn't one trick that'll work anywhere anytime. However if you plan the setting properly you'll always be fine. I find when I trip OUTDOORS (real outdoors in the forest, not a park) I can't have a bad trip. Last time I did them in the forest my buddies found my pushing against a small maple tree looking straight up at the leaves giggling like an idiot. It musta looked funny since I'm 6'5" 280lbs lol
Hahahahaha....I think it might have just been the wrong setting because I was limited to the indoors.
just try to remember its just a trip and realize theres nothing to be afraid of unless your afraid of your own mind in which case u shouldnt eat them in the first place. personally ive never had a "BAD" or "GOOD" trip. every trip ive ever had has at some point gotten scary even terrifying but at the same time i realize wat im afraid of and how unfounded my fears truly are or how unfounded it is to let them interfere with my pursuit of happiness. usually these are things like death, failure, losing ppl close to me, and lots of other things. once i get past the crying and screaming to god thigns like why does pain exist and being comforted by someone i usually start to really open my eyes and truly see how beautiful everything is i become so overwhelmed with peace and happiness that it saddens me b/c i realize the repetative nature of the universe and realize this feeling of insight wont last forever and i try to just love this moment and put it somewhere deep inside me so i can always remember it. this feeling could be described as euphoria but i dont see this definition as proper the insight i get from mushrooms is so much more than just bliss its like coming the closest ive ever been to understanding. nothing is clouded anymore its all clear to me not like other drugs which take your fears, insecurities, problems and bury them deep within ur subconsciouss and replace it with a lightheaded cloudy buzz. mushrooms bring everything to the forefront. now am forced to look at myself and understand wats wrong instead of hiding from it. im sorry if i rambled a little bit and got off topic. one other thing thats been posted ill emphasize is that going outdoors is one of the best ideas while tripping. being under the natural sky where we should be with all the other organisms on this earth. being indoors is actually quite a damper for me on shrooms it just cant compare with the beauty of mother nature even during the winter ill just sit on a bench for 3 hours and watch snowflakes fall. another thing is that altho tripping alone is quite an experience. u learn a lot about yourself and it can be very rewarding i still say the best trips are with people u love. everytime i trip alone i find myself wanting to talk to someone and express myself and ive found that while tripping the most wonderful and amazing sensation is being touched by another person. i remember hugging my girlfriend for centuries telling each other how in love we were it was one of the best times of my life and there was nothing sexual about it there mere sensation of her fingers running across my skin was unbelievable. all in all just enjoy urself and be happy for the experience
Occupy your mind man! -Drink or eat something -Watch something and observe everything about it so your mind isn't wandering on about 10,000 things at once. -Think about it logically: "Why is it a problem if the trip is intense, isn't my mind more open to new ideas now?" -Smoke some pot (if you don't get paranoid while high) -Have a long conversation, especially with others who are on mushrooms. Preferably as philosophical as possible, but nothing scary! -Relax somewhere in a comfortable environment and chill out! Good luck with your future trips!
You have to die man. If you learn how to die, you've won... nothing can ever touch you again. Just fall into it. Submit. Love it. Accept the trip, fall into it, wallow on it. Fall into yourself, into your heart cave. Just breathe, and be totally content... all of your desires will just slip away. Reach the point where there isn't a single thing you want, not a single thing you would change. Just lie on your bed and fall fall fall. "Turn off your mind, relax, and float down stream... it is not dying... it is not dying... Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void... it is shining... it is shining." - John Lennon I'm serious, if you do that, you will never have a bad trip again. Lennon tripped hundreds of times, he knew how to do it
Yeah, I always find that I'm drawn to the outside when on shrooms, or just when high, more than when I'm sober. Especially if it's dark outside with not many people on the streets anymore, I like to go for a walk around the outskirts of town with some music on. Fresh air, yay!
Thanks for all the advice...I just think that there were a couple things i should have done to make it better....but all in all it was very enjoyable. The thing that freaked me out was that I kept doing the exact same thing I would watch fresh prince (Hilarious on shrooms) go piss and wash my hands...I did this like 7 times (you'll never get out of this maze-phish) that started to freak me out. Then I started to worry that it was really late and my dad would wake up soon ,which was really still 4 hours away. And what I really didn't like was that there were knives in the kitchen...I just didn't like the fact that something dangerous was near me. And I was limited to the indoors because cops patrol all night and they're douches here. Next time I'll plan it better and do it with my friends which I was supposed to do.
When things get super intense, I just can't help but smile! It's like everything is melting down and I'm acidfucked in the middle of it all... I love it
