Crazy! That must have been some trip! I've never had this problem for more than a day or two, how long has this been going on?

I've had this in the past - early on when I first started tripping I found my sleep patterns disrupted.
Self analysis will help.
Start by writing down everything you can remember about your trip, think over what the overall message was. Look at what the constituent elements of your current life are - what are you happy/unhappy about.
I always find that the meaning of a journey and its effects emerge like a wave throughout the days/weeks following a trip.
Also try to cut down on stimulants; coffee, cigarettes (nicotine is a stimulant!) fatty/sweet food, if your diet is high in them.
Set yourself a project to do when you can't sleep - usually lack of sleep is a sign of too much mental energy in need of being expended or a problem that needs to be anaylsed.
Insomnia is a bitch - but I seem to have overcome mine in the past year and a half - mushrooms having been a contributing factor!

I think that if you don?t think too much in it , that feelings will just fade away as time goes on ... don?t see it as a problem ...
peace!

Give it time. It happens after strong trips sometimes, especially if it is one of your first.
It may take up to a few weeks, but chances are it will be gone in a few more days.

The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you, they're freeing your soul. So, if you're frightened of dying and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away, but if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth...

hey girl...
After my first major egoloss experience, I couldn't sleep for several weeks. This is because of the fear and paranoia I felt after that scary trip. I sometimes have a hard time sleeping a week after a trip just because my mind is still experiencing shock-waves of memory and thought. It should settle down...the others gave some good advice!

Hmm...I don't really know. I don't think I even have anyone on my friends list here at the Shroomery. Maybe check out your settings for the Shroomery and play around with it a bit.
