I was so excited for it to finally get back to summer so i could start shrooming again. buuuuuut lately ive tripped twice since shroom season started again, and theyve both been bad. and the last trips last year gave me bad trips too. wtf lol. I love seeing all the visuals and Ive really thought of some major deep shit. I just feel like a dumb ass when i do them. I get hot but im cold, and sweaty, and cant control anything. buy excellent visuals and major deep thoughts. is there a way i can NOT have a bad trip? I love shrooms and meditating. but I dont want to keep having these bad trips... any suggestions?

That is your problem. You're trying to control. Mushrooms are in control when you eat them, until the trip is over, really. I've experienced exactly what your talking about. Maybe you should try eating a little less, take a break for a while too.
How much are you eating?
I don't like to eat more than two or three grams for the same reasons you described. But just understand what the psychedelic experience is. Its not all about visuals. If your body feels weird, it is because your ego is starting to dissolve. You are sitting around trying to look normal in front of your friends when you should be laying down in a dark room going inward (sorry if I'm assuming wrong). I've been there. You can't have an inward journey when your friends are all there partying. You feel like a dumbass because you are trying to hold your social persona together while your whole perception of yourself is being completely distorted. And that is confusing. You need to do that alone. Thats why I think with friends, eat a low dose. Save the intense trips for when you can be alone.

I finally figured out my first acid trip i had a couple weeks ago because of you. trying to act normal in front of my friends tripped me out!

Coming off my first dose right now, and I totally understand this. Your mind is turning up and down and left and right, in, out, and all about so you have to leave it by itself to try and process. Totally leave the idea of being normal in front of your friends behind and let itself absorb the universe around it. Drop the social persona and let your ego be itself.

You need to just give way and go with the trip. Mushrooms arent about just seeing pretty colors and being high. They will show you your discrepencies, they will judge you. In a nurturing way. They will show you the reality and what is making your soul sick. You take them and freak out and cant stop thinking about how you told your dad to fuck off the other day. You feel freaked out because you cant control the situation and do what you want. You are under the influence of a psychedelic. FOr the time being you must just relax and lay down and close your eyes and let the thoughts flow freely. Dont fight it.

I agree. You must let go or have a bad time. I think we all go through this learning phase.
