Lots of long comments.

Your *MIND* is the answer.

It’s all about Set & Setting.

You have to submit totally to the experience. Any hesitation, or trying to hold onto *yourself* and your ego. Will result in a bad trip. You have to let go.

Somebody said there is no simple answer but there is it is a very basicd / cascading effect that simply starts with one bad feeling or bad thought that perpetuates a direct correlation in that direction of continued thoughts.

This is a very good example of why it is important to have a babysitter when tripping, not just so you don’t use knives to draw pictures on your skin thinking they are markers or something absolutely psychotic but also to be able to bring you out of a steep fall in case your mind or you’re feeling start to perpetuate towards the negative.

I was always able to pull myself out of a bad mushroom trip… which honestly was always the part when it first hits and if I had any trepidation about taking it at that time… the negative feelings would start to manifest… I would walk off from the group, try to throw up lol…. but then 1 simple act of a buddy coming over seeing me a little distressed and then Saying.. HEY! you’re all good come back and chill.. and as soon as I would accept that I made the decision because I wanted to experience it. Everything would be smooth sailing…

Now the few times I ate them by myself with that mindset… not as easy to right the ship.

But that was at a time when a lot of my life was insecure.. recently I make sure I put myself in proper situations and with the proper people and maybe a little less than I used to take… good lord I don’t need a whole eight to the head 😅 and its really been great for a while.

Now…. I just tried lsd for first time and WOOOOOO!!!!! that was fun!

The worst trip I ever had was wayyyyyy back in the day when used to fuck with DXM.. that stuff will really fuck with you and there was no pulling out for me… thought I legit had died and was headed towards the light…. also used to give me sleep paralysis somewhat frequently which is a total nightmare… would not recommend

Usually, if you are new to it… it is because you’re scared and don’t feel in control. You have to release that feeling and know it’ll end and you did it for a reason and to let it show you what you need to see.

If you’re not new to it, it means you’re subconsciously..or consciously… repressing something and it is coming out of the dark so you can deal with it. If you feel the devil or some evil force around you, it is not real, it is a part of yourself you are refusing to deal with. Gotta integrate the shadow to become whole.

Or it is just a bad set and setting. If your parents are upstairs and you decide to trip and they are super anti drug… guess what…you’re gonna have a bad time.

Edit. As someone who’s had a lot of good and bad trips, while my best trips by far were good ones, the bad ones taught me a lot also and I’m equally grateful for those, even if they were difficult in the moment
