-confusion (too much crap in my pockets, thought loops, etc.)

My mushroom trips are never just either "GOOD" or "BAD," though. Parts are good, and parts are bad. On the more "rough" trips though, I tend to learn more stuff that helps me in my life, and the comedown is AWESOME once the mindfuck goes away, I realize that I actually AM sane, and yet at the same time I'm still seeing awesome visuals.

Same stuff that most people get, I suppose.

-too strong of a body load (feeling nausea, coldness, or just flat out WEIRD energy flowing through my body, and also having my physical senses overlap one another and become distorted/TOO MUCH energy flowing through my body where I feel like I'm just going to BURST yet there's no outlet for it) this usually only happens in the beginning of my trip, though
-having thoughts about negative things in my life come to the surface and amplify themselves (which are paradoxically some of the BEST parts of my trips, because I almost always reach conclusions on how to fix certain things that have been bugging me)
-confusion (too much crap in my pockets, thought loops, etc.)

On a final note, LSD is a MUCH smoother, "cleaner," more "transparent" trip for me. I love that lysergic bliss. Shrooms throw things in my face, whereas LSD let's me go where I want to (for the most part.)

You're going to have a terrible first bad trip if you look at it that way. People who say bad trips can't happen don't know how to handle them when they do. Psychedelics aren't about being confident or cocky. If you don't respect them they'll turn your brain into mush and feed it back to you.

bad trips are trips that i don't learn much from.

and yes, those trips exist. even when thinking back on them.

after a bad trip two nights ago, I don't understand how people can take like 10 grams.

i do belive bad trips exist, ive never known anyone that this has happened to, but isnt it possible to have a really bad trip and after the trip youre still messed up mentally, like depressed or scared?

I remember the first time i smoked salvia (20x) it was like what I describe as an 'echo of all senses.' All my vision, hearing, taste, smell and every single nerve on my body was stuck in a one second echo/delay effect. It was weird feeling the slightest sense of touch repeat itself throughout my body. I mean everything. Even just how I felt emotionally for a split-second repeated itself a few times and faded out. It was one of the strangest experiences of my life, and one of the best after I stopped panicking - the part that Terence McKenna describes as "knowing real fear" lol
