Hey all, a couple years ago I had a bad trip and have not done any psychedelics since. I had anxiety and visual distortions for a while after. I decided a couple weeks ago that I had the courage to trip again, so this weekend I'm going to do some morning glory seeds, an old favorite, maybe shrooms if i can find any around here. Anyway, just wondering if anyone has been in the same situation and had any advice or ideas to make the trip more comfortable.
be mindful of set, setting, and dose. LSA might not be the best psychedelic to ease back into things, but if it's all you can get . . .
If possible get yourself a trip sitter to look over you while tripping and talk you down if you are having any anxieties or problems. Other than that, just make sure you are in a good place mentally and that you are in an enviornment you are comfortable with. With the two entheogens you have listed, I'd make sure it's an enviornment that you can do everything from lay down to like having various areas/rooms/scenery you can explore a bit and not confined in like one room. If you go with morning glories, I'd probably take the extra effort and look into how to make some sort of tea extraction or something that will hopefully remove or at least lessen the nausea that some of the other non-LSA alkaloids are known to cause. I think that's how those things work anyways.
What substance caused you that bad trip? LSA will sure be gentle enough for your new trip. To minimize nausea and other unwanted effects you might do extraction as guerillabedlam suggested. I only chewed seeds couple times I did it and didn't find nausea too bad but I'm sure making extraction to minimize bad effects and speed up come up is good idea. If they are available to you, anything you would call "candy psychedelic" in higher dose might also be good to make you feel comfortable again with stronger psychedelics. I'm sure mushrooms will also make you want to explore again .
Yeah, I guess it's what you'd call HPPD. But i've been smoking pot for a year with no anxiety or increase in visuals so i dont pay any mind to it. I tripped and it went well, it was a mild, relaxing first time back in the psychedelic dimension.
its weird doing it after years break because its never how you expect it to be and you need to prepare and be in a good place.. i took it at a psy rave and i freaked out because a lot of russians kept starting fights it scared me lol
