Be in a safe enviorment, have a positive mind set, and don't worry about bad trips.

It might seem like a simple suggestion but it works...
Sugar! And lots of it. (or lots of sugary sweets)
Aldous Huxley makes this point in Doors of Perception in reference to the peyote cactus, but sugar can be used to counteract the effects of any ingested natural phychedelics.
If you want the science... Sugar creates enzymes which co-ordinate the supply of glucose to the brain cells, which it needs to maintain its day to day base awareness required for biological survival. In taking a natural phychedelic such as shrooms, it lowers the amount of glucose going to the brain thus not allowing the brain to focus so much on biological survival, the mind is therefore left in a purer form (why when shrooming you have more complex / abstract / deeper thoughts and understanding.) Therefore, it stands to reason that should you want to exit the phychedelic process, you should eat sugar to create the enzymes that maintain 'normal' survival.
Shrooms are so awesome, even the 'medicine' you take to counter them are sweets, sugar and candy.
Happy tripping

Trust me, the best way to avoid a bad trip is to not worry about it, worrying about having a bad time is the number one way to have one.

On that same note, read and re-read the psychedilic experience faq on erowid. http://www.erowid.org/psychoactives/faqs/psychedelic_experience_faq.shtml Once you have that banged into your head, you might wanna pick up the book version.

"What do you take in case of a bad shroom trip?"
"a good ass-kicking" is a fine answer...
But the best answer is this: Just don't resist, hand over your soul, and it will come back to you clean.

Waiting 6 hours before panicing usually helps prevent bad trips.

alcohol can be a help actually. It puts you in a bit more of an accepting state. I dont mean large doses, just like one or two shots. Before High dose trips, I always make sure to down a couple shots and loosen myself up. It takes away the anxiety a ton. However, if you have a problem with nausea, then its definitely not recommended.

OTC... niacinamide (a non-flushing form of vitamin B3) or inostitol hexanicotinate... (dr hoffer suggests it can even crank down much of the wilder effects of schizophrenia)... moderate doses of antihistamine (like 50 mg diphenhydramine)... (sorta sedating & stops some trippiness...) 'scrip antihistamines & antiemetics like phenergan & compazine are ver close to thorazine etc... 'scrip tranx like xanax & valium & klonopins...
heck, they're all in my first aid kit anyways... (well, they would be ifn i had a nice doc...)
but there are a lot of ummm non-pharmacolgical "inverntions" as well... UTFSE to find any of hundreds of previous posts on virtually identical topic, mmmm? prolly useful stuff around www.shroomery.org & www.erowid.org www.lycaeum.org www.entheogen.com www.bluelight.nu & deoxy & maps & a dozen other trip-inffo sites...
~ but for OTCs, do try 250 mg niacinamide --- it coulndn't hurt, & just might (prolly?) help...

Ive never done x but everyone I know who has says it makes you feel really good, same with h. Ive been wondering lately if either of those could do anything to help a bad trip? Maybe turn it around making you feel good, or with the h I hear you just dont care about anything, so mabye you would e able to dismiss the bad thoughts? This might be stupid, but Ive been wondering this for a while.

i haven't had a bad trip ever, not even once out of the 80ish+ mushroom trips i've been through. don't even bring a "security blanket" in case things go bad. the best way to prevent a bad trip is to stop it before it starts. the importance of set and setting cannot be emphasized enough!
