Experienced ego dissolution and timelessness while a friend spiraled into a bad trip believing we were communicating through “waves” — I wanted to share a recent experience because the contrast between my trip and my friend’s bad trip was extremely interesting, and I’m curious if others have seen similar dynamics in group trips. We …

Media fear-mongering or truth? — Back when my dad was around 17 he did shrooms 5 or 6 times. Just picked them and ate them with his mates. Had no knowledge of psychedelics and didn’t weigh any particular dose. Said it was great every…

Took one too many shrooms. Bad “trip.” What does it mean? Why does it happen? — I’m 27 F For context, I don’t think it was a full on “trip” I think I took x2 micro doses. (I don’t really know how to measure, I just take some bites of the mushroom and usually a small piece I cons…

My horrible mushroom trip by Jimmy Burnt — It all started during an environmental school excusion/protest. I had packed my lunch that day, drank my water, dressed well and expected nothing to happen. To preface I live in Sydney and lived aro…

What I have learned through psychedelic mushroom usage + yoga — With the mushroom trips I have done throughout my life with lots of intention there were some good and bad trips. The good trips left me with a very grateful and happy attitude for life and the people…

A friend tried to reach me for a kiss during a bad trip at 300mcg acid — I recently posted about my trip and got to understand more about why things happened. So I think I should also post this scene. When he was having a bad trip i sat beside him and the first thing he h…

Does anyone else have a more negative experience on lower dosages and positive on higher? — To add context im the overthinking anxiety neurodivergent type and simply put on higher amounts i cant string up a rational thought or barely talk, lower dosages my brain functions somewhat hence i ov…

I’ve done near every regular psychedelic except dmt. Should I tick it off the list? — I’m terrified to try it cause I have a lot of trauma I guess I’m scared of finding out what the deal is and I’m scared I’m gonna have a bad trip which I don’t normally have on any psych. I’ve done mes…

7g Enigma Lemon Tek — Felt like I could move through space and time” — A few days ago I had one of the most intense psychedelic experiences of my life. I took around 6–7 grams of Enigma mushrooms using the lemon tek method. I’m not new to psychedelics — I’ve had multipl…

CID tripping — I have bad ptsd from bad shroom trips and I want to trip acid for the first time. But I’m scared I will have a bad trip and wondering if lean would help? With out making it more intense

You're friend sounds like a typical story of someone who recoiled from a bad trip. If you are of stable mind going into it then common psychedelics by themselves should not cause you to do anything to…

Happens to me too sometimes. It's not great, a great risk to turn a trip really bad. It's a blood sugar drop, or at least that's part of it when it happens to me. I need to cover up in warm blankets…

Good to see another bad trip seeming to lead to something positive.

maybe to add, I am generally not a fan of the word ‘bad trip’ - I have the impression its usually brought up in recreational usage by people who were just looking for a fun time, but the psychedelic t…

AL-LAD Impossible de bad tripper.

I third this 😄 Very difficult it have a bad trip, duration is relatively short… it’s perfect.

I’m at about a 4.5 on this scale. Been doing the tapes since 2020 regularly and have never sensed or seen a thing. I’ve felt the vibrations starting years ago but that’s it. I’ve never seen anything w…

This is short term pain for long term gain.  I have 4 drug addict sisters that never made it out, I am super grateful that I did.  They never understood why I quit, always thinking I had a bad trip. N…

I’m a fan of just listening to what you like. Some people would say I’m asking for a “bad trip” because I listen to metal, but it’s what I enjoy and makes me feel good.

Oddly enough, I like to cut my hair on shrooms. It always looks better than when I do it sober, for some reason. But outside of that I love to go outside and lay in the grass if it's nice out or sit o…

It's honestly a very hard thing to explain, one would have to have a very close friend with them also tripping at similar doses, and maybe the bad trip could have something to do with it i have no ide…

0%, but it could help you recontextualize it though, i don’t think it’s had an effect on mine but mine wasn’t ~that bad, it has potential to be the theme of a bad trip, but that could also be benefic…

If you are going to explore with the shrooms, spend the $10 and get a scale so you are not unsure of your dosing. Being unprepared sets you up for a rough time right off the gate. As far as "why" you…

Not minimizing your bad trip experience but I dont think this was a bad trip, you are trauma healing. you are dealing with painful past and finally reconciling and mourning it. The shrooms allowed y…

Doesn't sound like a bad trip. Sounded like an emotionally challenging one. You had this trip because you needed it. Listen to it, figure out what you were meant to see and take from this.

1. Get a scale. Weigh your doses. Eye balling is not a viable way to control how much you get. Some mushrooms are much denser than others. Even weighing can be off between batches due to potency but a…

I'm gonna be honest with you man, I don't mean to discourage you, but if you expect this path to be all pleasurable, you are in the wrong place, psychedelics can be very unpleasant at times, working o…

I think bad trip refers more to panicking about being under the influence of the substance, like feeling unsafe and uncomfortable with the visuals and headspace.

Honestly, it was a pretty normal experience overall. Nothing really weird happened. It felt a bit more stimulating, but not overwhelming. To be honest, I wouldn’t even say it was a very strong trip. …

To be honest with you, I have no idea, I am not an expert. Psychedelics have helped me and still help me face my traumas and fears in a constructive way, nothing like cptsd, but I have been able to ge…

Thank you very much anyway and opinion . The biggest lesson ive learnt during a bad trip is to use gentle breathwork.

i used to take shrooms at school (i’m talking 5 to 7 g and then pretend that everything was normal meanwhile everyone had 3 eyes and i couldn’t read, i did maybe once every other week for about 6 mont…

I found the opposite, in regards to fear/anxiety. Acid makes me feel like a tweaker and I've only had bad trips when I'm doing acid. Compared to mushrooms which make me feel like I just smoked weed, I…

I've had bad trips on both, but I think the absolute worst was on five hits of AL-LAD (another lysergamide similar to LSD). Ego death was long and arduous (I was also fighting it the whole way, which …

This is almost completely backwards for me. LDS lasts like 12-24 hours shrooms like 6-8. Way less likely to have a bad trip on shrooms though I never took more than like an 1/8th. LSD fucked me up …

The Buddha had a story where he was confronted by Mara—the embodiment of fear. Instead of fighting it or running, he simply said “I see you” and watched it. The fear didn’t disappear because he made i…

I would stay away from that guy. I've had anxiety and bad trips before but I could never imagine trying to hit or slap someone in that state... That's just crazy. Dude has serious issues.

I have a schizophrenic great grandmother and likely a great uncle as well. Multiple bipolar people. I have struggled with depression and anxiety my whole life. Psychedelics have done nothing but good …

"This can't be true for all mental illness" Well no, not really. psychosis is a particular state of mind. If Someone is schizophrenic, and they are actively hearing voices, they may be experiencin…

Vocês acham que a bad trip tá mais associado a estado mental ou a dosagem? Sinceramente tenho medo de bad

For me edibles have a much higher potential of causing a bad trip . DMT is so short, and so intense you have no time to resist (which causes a lot of our bad trips) and no bodily weirdness either

Definitely a mix of both but if your afraid of a bad trip you being afraid of a bad trip will make your trip bad if you do anything to resist the experience and try and make it “good” you will almost …

I've never seen DMT "entities" despite more than a hundred experiences, I'd wager. I've only ever experienced true ego death from it once, completely losing track of the fact that I'm an individual, a…

Oh absolutely. But just tiny,  minuscule bumps, atomic bumps, and it compliments the MDMA. Of course too much ket, and you’ll anaesthetise yourself. You’ll be tranquillised.  If you do ket with MDMA…

For me, part of what's so reassuring about DMT is knowing that it's such a short experience. So, even if by chance you do end up having a bad time, you're only going to be having a bad time for 15-20 …

Bad trips on shrooms are a rooough one for me.

That pain never dies, you just learn to cope. Sadly I’ve been in that mindset going into trips a number of times. They arent always easy. Sometimes I get a sense of relief from that emotional pain and…

Look for a therapist that specializes in Internal family systems (IFS) and then move onto EMDR. If you have too much built up trauma, DMT can be overwhelming. Make sure to take a long break between n…

Yeah the wall seems like I will have a bad trip ahaha Thank you still, I'm a Pink Floyd fan

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knowledge_argument?wprov=sfla1 You are asking us to explain the "experience of blue" to Mary.  Mainly I focus on set, setting, and safety. I make sure everyone is ful…

Ah, I truly enjoy the “wrestling with holding on to my sanity” on heavy shroom trips, the fact I’m realizing that my psyche is splitting in half and I become two people who debate aspects of my life i…

Never mix meds and drugs together!!!!!!! I had a really really really bad trip with MDMA and my meds once. A few meds can block drugs and other meds can cause bad trips and serotonine syndrome. You …

Never tried mescaline so can't speak to it. If you like LSD it's very possible you will like shrooms. Psychedelics in general are quite similar but they just have different characters so to speak. So …

This is an important point. If you ever feel even the slightest bit of paranoia or anxiety when you smoke weed you'll probably want to omit that part from your journey. All my bad trips when I was yo…

Mescaline is well honestly extremely hard to remember much about weirdly enough but it is a very very long trip (11 hours) the visuals were like nothing I’ve ever seen even compared to DMT open eye vi…

What is NHI? And no to contacting anything and I'm terrified to take psychedelics of any kinds cause i think I'm going to have a bad trip so i do it.

I tripped on acid with a broken finger nail and it ruined it. Not a bad trip but I was very focused on it

Bad trip?

Nice thing about DXM is, unless you hit 3rd or 4th plateau on your first couple trips, or you hit 4th plateau in general, DXM had a sort of anxiolytic effect. You could still have a bad trip and freak…

If you insist. I HIGHLY recommend 1st or 2nd plateau only for the first 3 or 4 trips. 3rd and 4th plateau on your first couple will push you into a state of intense, probably dark, and very dangerous…
