restlessness is different to anxiety.  I find music can distract me from my restlessness.  I suppose xanax could work too, but I'd try other methods first.  Xanax could definitely harm the spiritual aspect of your trip, as it dulls your mind as well.  But if you're still getting spiritual benefits, and it's the only thing that works, well, what else can you do?

I have tried everything my best rout it to take xanax a few days be for the trip and for some reason that helps.And trust me it is not restlessness,it causes an anxious tension I can feel every muscle in my body tense up it sucks,but not bad enough to make me want to stop,I will find ways to fix this problem
And I do not take enough to effect the spiritual effect at all.
Its kind of funny my wife hates to trip because she feels the same way but last weekend I talked her into tripping with me.After about 2 hours things got to much for her and she could not relax,so I gave her a xanax to kill the trip.Guess what it did not kill the trip it allowed her to relax to the point to were she was tripping harder than be for and was loving it because she could relax.It almost seemed like the xanax helped her hallucinated more.Be for she took the xanax she just sat there quiet.After taking it she was cuting up,talking about all the colors and loving it :smile:

PLEASE stop mixing drugs with psychedelics. i think the only things one should ever mix with psychedelics are psychedelics and cannabis. when you're in such a highly suggestible state, and you take an addictive drug like opiates, you'll be creating an addict. meta-programming. alcohol is an ego-intoxicant, isn't that counter to the purpose of entheogens? pharmaceutical drugs are the worst, most dangerous on earth. and there doesn't seem to be any research on possible drug interactions with psychedelics because they're illegal.
if you're having anxiety and panic attacks maybe you do too many drugs? that's why i get them. but i use psychedelics to make me not want other drugs, or to break addictions
and i think that any darkness or negativity that comes up while tripping is for a reason... it's part of you that you have to face and overcome, don't just medicate your fears.

LOL i love people like this who most likely do not speak from experience.When I say I have bad anxiety I do not mean I have 10 million thoughts running threw my head about how I am going to die or never come down,when I say anxiety attacks I am talking about when the muscles in my body become so tense it it uncomfortable,there is nothing I can "tell myself,or any problems to face and fix stop a PHYSICAL problem.
I have used psychedelics to help me become a better person and to also kick a cigarette habit and it also has helped me tame another addiction I have.So in order for me to be able to heal myself with psychedelics if I have to take .5 mg of xanax 5hr be for the trip I will.




i have much experience. the physical problems are your body's reaction to emotional or mental stress. i've had many experiences where my muscles tense and my body writhes with uncomfortability, but i deal with it. there always comes a point where i overcome it, and that's what liberates me. psychedelics have gotten me off meth and coke, and i'm happy that they've helped your addictions, too, but you still have to take xanax, which is an addictive drug.

i would really try weed first. i am usually anxious as hell on the come up of all my trips. taking just a couple of tokes puts me in a relaxed mood and eases me into the experience. and if anything it will make the better part of the trip more intense, not dull it.

I agree. A trip slightly dulled by the taking of benzo or opiate is always better than a trip RUINED by a painful bodyload where all you do is lie on your couch praying for the trip to end.

What's most annoying is that you wasted of 5 hits of acid in the process, something that is not exactly as readily available as cigarettes...

Sometimes it can, but other times it doesn't work. On medium to high doses, you're too dissociated to appreciate music: it sound distant, sometimes downright annoying or unpleasant.

In fact, once, listening to music actually CAUSED some uncomfortable sensations for me, it can induce some kind of sensory overload.

Well, the Grateful Dead's "Anthem to the Sun" completely saved me from a trip on 1200 mics of acid + 300mg of mescaline.  The scariest experience of my life became the best experience of my life.

Personally, before that, I usually listened to stuff like Infected Mushroom while I tripped.  That, however, would have been a sensory overload on a dose like that.  The Grateful Dead have a way of taking you out of that bad place.

i can't and don't trip without xanax. It just makes everything smoother and better. I take small dose though- .25 to .5mg only. Just enough to slightly calm you down and ease you into hyper space. Helps to fall asleep afterwords aswell. Never mixed opiates and shrooms, I imagine it would feel pretty blissful. Wish I could get codeine over the counter.

Wow 1200 mics are you sure? On that dose I would be too fucked up to even recognize music. I personally can't mesure my doses in mics. My dealer assures me he sells 200 mcg hits, but I believe he's lying/don't know what he's talking about.

What I can tell you is, on 5 hits (without tolerance) music was just too overwhelming. I tried everything: psychedelic rock, classic rock, bubblegum pop crap, classical... couldn't take it. I listened to "Baby Love" by the Supremes, and somehow it scared the shit out of me!

What's weird is, at first everything sounded beautiful. Even listening Britney Spears would've felt heavenly. I thinks that's what really creeped me out: you feel so great, you find so much beauty in everything that it actually terrifies you.

I'm talking about peak effect of course. After like 1 hour 1/2 it got better, and turned into one of the most pleasant trips ever...

I think that when people say they "overcome" anxiety/bad trip, what really happens is that they waited long enough for the effect to diminish slightly.

LOL please show me where I said I always have to "take xanax".It happens to me on occasions.
Since you have such a problem with addictive drugs I hope you do not smoke cigs or drink anything that contains caffeine seeing how they are also addictive drugs :smile:

if I had it my way I would never take any pharmaceutical pills.But I had rather take a xanax every once in a while instead of calling it quites.

My hits definitely aren't 200 mics.  They're probably 80-150.  I just estimated an even 100.  2 of those same tabs got me pretty fucked up though, so they definitely aren't under 80.  I took 12 (I had to, as I bought them in 4th period ((when I was still in high school)) and got called down to the office).  Turns out they only wanted me to come down to talk about the schedule change I had requested, haha. Luckily I didn't start peaking until I was already on the bus home.

Otherwise, I would only have taken 4-6 of them.  Or perhaps 1-2 + the mescaline.

I did try Infected Mushroom when I first got home, and it was far to overwhelming for me, but there's something about the Grateful Dead.

The lyrics too..

"All you need.... All you need... Allll you need.... All you neeeeeeeeed; all you gotta haaaaaave..."

Just the way he says it, and the way he chose his words so carefully.  It's like, you don't need much.  You barely need anything.  Without need there is ultimate comfort.

Another thing he says:

"You know he had to die."
I know it sounds morbid at first.  But the way he says it is so comforting.  It makes you feel that death has to happen.  And it's ok that "he" died.  Makes you feel, while you're tripping, that this trip isn't bad, and even if it kills you, it's ok.

LOL man that's what I first tried a while back,LOL but I found out that while tripping it makes it worse!That really sucks because I know that when sober if I smoke some bud it will relax me but now I know that if I smoke while I am anxious(while tripping)it will make it worse :frown:

Researchers know that problems with brain chemistry can contribute to the development of anxiety disorders. Certain neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) in the brain involved in anxiety include serotonin, norepinephrine, and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Researchers have also shown that changes in activity in certain areas of the brain are involved in anxiety. Many anxiety disorders run in families and likely have a genetic cause.
This statement leads me to belive(and oveously some medical doctors)That anxiety and panic attacks ate "not" always caused by an individuals emotional state of mind.

Acid took me out of that angsty rut.. Definitely wouldn't listen to anything dark like Tool on acid.  That would be counteracive imo..

Listen to what you like though.

When I was going to see the Grateful dead I always had this sort of humbling feeling when Jerry would be up there singing and playing...like a grandfather figure telling you how it is from his living room couch...being lit up and being there was a powerful thing...The best show on Earth
