My last trip of a 22mg shroom stuffs was equivalent to a strong eighth, coming on real fast as there was no fungus to digest.
It started out as small happenings that snowballed into a world of fear. I guess I dropped my drink & got doused in it, then took off & misplaced my fleece, tripped out about the shirt I was wearing & things on my person, then it getting cold out & not being able to find warmer clothing (I was camping). Proceeding to me freaking out about some shit involving my tent & gear bursting into a fiery inferno, LEOs coming & busting me & locking me away forever & me never seeing my loved ones again & OMFGWTF I'm dying!
What started as some small things, snowballed to me believing I was getting busted and locked away forever, and then believing I was going to die of dehydration within a few minutes.
At the time it felt very real, and what I feel bad about today still are my reactions and the way I behaved towards the people around me. I lost all sense of consideration & treated people who were trying to help, like enemies because in my twisted state I believed they had it out for me.
Fortunately it resolved before the trip was over, because someone said to me something about how "we don't let anything happen to our own" and this flipped me into the selfless state and "I" disappeared, replaced with unconditional love for those around me, and me taking it too far with the selfless thing (ie, offering strangers obscure&less-known drugs for free).
I still think about this trip regularly & do feel bad about my actions, mainly the way I treated friends who were there to help. I can only hope they truly forgive me. And, I feel all self-conscious like WTF was I thinking offering strangers drugs, etc. So, all in all thinking about this trip that happened almost 8 months ago, I still feel bad emotion about the whole deal & wish it never happened.
But, in a good way this has helped me to respect psychedelics more. I'm afraid to trip like that! As for recovering, I can't do anything right now to make better on this event, but perhaps next time if I go camping with the same group I can try to show my appreciation for their help in my time of need, and certainly not take large doses of substances which are too hard to handle in that setting.
I hope my experience can help you integrate yours or at least, you can see that recovery is not an overnight process but does happen with time. Time heals all.

I had a bad trip on about 5 grams a while back... I put myself into a bad head space after I drank a couple cups of mushroom tea. I was installing a new distribution of the ubuntu/linux os and I kept messing up the boot loader options so I got frustrated... Well as I really started to trip hard I was holding a big bundle of cds. I got the strangest sensation from the cds like these illusions : http://www.moillusions.com/2006/03/impossible-objects-in-real-life.html
But then all of a sudden I got a bad tingle in my arm like you get when you cut yourself. I thought I cut myself on the cds. I looked at my hands I thought they were covered in blood(really I guess they were just super flushed cause my heart was beating like crazy)
I went to wash it off but it didn't work and I finally realized it wasn't bleeding. But it was too late, I was already in hell. I could smell something burning and I was convinced the house was burning down for a time. That and I thought I was dying because I had taken some ibruprophen and thought it was having a fatal reaction with the mushrooms.
I ended up curled in a ball on the floor for about 2 hours. Convinced I was dying. It was like being inside of the most terrifying movie ever made.
I finally was able to pack a bowl of some buds and after I smoked it I was perfectly fine. I'm convinced that I cannot have a bad trip on mushrooms if I combine it with some cannabis.
I was fine the next morning. It was a horrible experience, but I was so fucked up that I have no bad feelings towards the experience now. It feels like I have seen death and I have nothing to fear anymore.
I have seen my pupils get large before, but my god I have never seen them that wide before... I virtually had no color in my eyes at all.

And that's probly why you never will. I think that it's up to the individual where they go and if you are really planning to take a long trip make sure your in the right frame of mind. Which kind of sucks cause from that view point if u have a bad trip chances r you will be thinking about that next time u do shrooms.
but then again I guess sometimes it just happens....but I guess I really don't know...I guess hopefully I never will
I hope you all recover and keep enjoying mushrooms....sounds like a shitty place to find yourself

I realize this thread is rather old but I don't know how to start my own and I'm desperately in need of some help.
I've been in love with the most wonderful guy for about 10 months now. We've had an unbelievably ideal relationship. This summer we experimented with a few types of psychedelics and had a great time each time. But half way through September I began to feel my first doubts in the relationship - as anybody does in a functional, healthy relationship.
Unfortunately it was at that time that we decided to have our last mushroom trip of the season. During that trip I began to feel like I no longer loved him at all and it was ripping me apart inside. I began screaming and sobbing and aching. No visuals but tons of pain. I felt cut off from my heart. My mind felt excruciatingly messed up.
After the trip I felt fine and we were fine. But since then (for 2/3 weeks now) I feel my mental and emotional state - in all areas - is just imbalanced. I still get these feelings and doubts but it feels as though I'm still caught in a bad trip I can't escape from. I don't want to feel this way. I feel hurt and torn up and confused about every area in my life and I don't know what to do or how to handle it.
I'm wondering if anyone knows how to help or can direct me to help somehow? Can bad trips have long term effects on your mental and emotional stability? It sure seems that way...
Someone please help. I feel as though I'm losing my mind, and my entire sense of self.
