Just helped my friend out of a bad trip

I'm really stoked, thanks to my experience and advice from THE SHROOMERY, I was able to help my buddy out of a bad trip. He took shrooms for his fist time today at 3, doesn't know how many he took, some guy just offered him and he ate them. not the smartest thing to do. He ate em an hour and a half ago, so I assume he's pretty much peaking. He IMed me "I took shrooms and I'm freaking out bad." I explained to him about peaking and come-up anxiety, gave him some advice, and told him he'd be back to normal in three hours, and he'll miss tripping no matter what. He said he felt better, and then I told him he should go walk to the beach or the forest (santa cruz... what a cool place to trip ) He agreed and I assume he's walking in the woods somewhere, feeling euphoric hopefully. I myself feel 100% better right now, so I think its working, and I'm getting some good vibes from him.
Just wanted to reiterate what a wonderful place this is, if there wasn't a shroomery I woudln't have been able to help him. This place is great, thanks people

I would have too, except I'm 400 miles south of him. It was during the day anyway.

The anxiety is overwhelming. I tripped for my first time last night, not expecting to trip as hard as I did (13g wet shrooms). I had really bad anxiety, nausea, and I have acid reflux so that was burning my stomach. I couldn't eat b/c I felt nauseated, so there was nothing I could do. Some of the people on TV appeared to be a mouse, a devil, and something else but I can't remember.
Whenever characters on TV would get emotional, like freaking out and stuff, I'd start freaking out and couldn't take it. The only thing I wanted to do was lay down and go to sleep, wishing I hadn't taken them. I closed my eyes and got great CEV (totally amazing!), but I didn't want to open my eyes because everything was just too overwhelming and scary. It sucked.
I dont know if I peaked, or if I was coming down, but I felt better after about 2 hours into it.
My g/f told me to brush my teeth b/c my breath smelled like shrooms, so I was brushing them and laughed so hard and how weird it felt, then I kept laughing and laughing, then I realized I was foaming at the mouth and laughing like a maniac, holding a toothbrush, and that made me laugh even harder. I laughed pretty much all night, but didn't have the same visuals as I did when I guess I was coming up.
Can anybody relate to what I'm saying so I can prepare for my next trip?

I get anxiety on the come up too, I've learned from experience that it goes away once you're up. Like you said, two hours into it and you were fine. Wishing you hadn't taken em is definitely a thought process to avoid, because you DID take them, and you did it because they're great and fun, so there is no reason to wish them away, they're not going away unil they've run they're course. I've notived that singing long tones, just making up my own music and vocalizing it really gets rid of the anxiety (and its really fun ) You don't have to worry, becasue there is nothing to worry about. Remember that. Have a good next trip

I just do something utterly mundane and normal, like clipping my toenails, brushing my hair or even painting a picture until they kick in, and I never have anxiety. If I do, it comes as excitement instead, because I love the come-up feeling.

I also took them at 10:30pm, when I was expecting to take them at 9pm, but my g/f took too long shopping. I think I was in a sorta bad mood b/c I was taking them too late, and knew I'd be staying up way too late, but I did it anyway.
Plus, like I said, it was my first time ever, and wasn't expecting such a hard trip. I had the weed ready to intensify my expected half ass trip, but it was far from half ass.

well look on the bright side... if 13 wet grams made you trip hard, you've got some good shrooms on your hands

I never understood the coming-up anxiety, because even when i'm happy I took shrooms, my first 45 mins to hour and ahalf of tripping I'm so edgy and uncomfortable, I regret taking them for some reason, even though I know I love shrooms. But most def. by hour 2 I am damn happy I ate them!!!!!
What usually helps me through that phase is just to keep talking to my friends, who I always trip with.

I see it as the adjustment period. Your body just has to adjust to the new world, and that takes time before you feel relaxed (for most of us). It's the same with LSD (only not as severe because of the lack of nausea...which is the main thing that bothers me), and the first 30 mins to an hour is a little bit uncomfortable, but once you start peaking - you're in heaven.

I really only get anxiety while on mushrooms. Usually the nausea kicks in and it takes on negative thought to make the next thirty minutes a hellish thirty minutes, but after it's over, pure bliss Acid, on the other hand, is a whole different story. I really love the come up while on LSD. I usually get giddy and in an extremely happy mood.

I got come up anxiety on my first trip, but by the second I turned it into excitment... there's a rush, but I think it depends on you to chose if it'll be anxiety or excitement.

Did you see Adaptation, with Maryl Streep brushing her teeth while high on that (fictional) psychedelic orchid? It was worth the price of admission.
