What is wrong with me??

So I just bought myself a strip of some WoW, but I can't bring myself to take any!!
I've had a couple rough trips lately, and now I get nervous that something will go awry, so it does. How can I ease myself back in?!

Just take one tab and have a relaxed, low-level trip.

maybe you should wait until you feel ready. but, you bought the strip, so you obviously want some acid maybe dose on the low side?

Perhaps you should consider extending your reflective period, fixating on the nature of your "rough" trips and their personal implications.
Only you know when the time is right. In any case, don't make things too complicated...this is perhaps a bit simplistic, but you get the idea

Maybe that is a sign you need to back off psychedelics for just a while?
If you wanting to dose and are nervous, my advice is just to take a lower dose. Although I am guessing that probably won't satisfy you.

what kind of rough trips have you had? What exactly are you worried will happen?
If you're nervous then just put the acid away in a cool dry place and save it for a rainy day or a special event. No need to rush anything.
I always get the jitters before dosing. It's totally normal. The trick is to just let go and have faith in the trip. Let it flow where it will go. Maybe it will get serious and melancholy for a little bit, but so what. IME the best trips encompass both the light and the dark. If I just wanted to feel good and happy I'd eat MDMA instead. But that's not what I want, I want a TRIP! LOL. You get what I'm saying?
Tell us more about what happened in your previous trips that is making you so nervous.

If your nervous dont just jump in.
Best advise its better to not worry about anything going into a trip so why would anything go wrong to begin with?
Thinking is for the end of the trip.

I was recently in the same position, I just couldn't trip solo anymore after a few rough trips.
For me it was about dosing with some close friends for support, and dealing with all my issues head on, it was definitely rough for a while out there in hyperspace, but if you can stay headstrong you reach some really deep insights into yourself and the problems causing you to doubt tripping in the first place.
That being said if your in a really bad place in life, the best thing is probably to deal with it sober before you load your brain up with psychedelics. For me the cid was like medicine after I took the plunge though, it was rough as hell to trip through all my problems, but I was cleansed of it all and looked at everything in a new light afterwards.

Well, I decided to dose before I got to read all these responses, but it didn't even matter; the acid was bunk

But I'll answer this anyway, because I'm sure I'll need the advice for the near future. The rough trips have been on ayahuasca, and they have been extremely introspective, making me think about the things in my life that need to be corrected.
They were really melancholy, but I always feel better after, and don't regret the trip, so I don't consider them bad trips. I have also made those corrections in my life, so maybe I am in a place to trip again. I wish I could do some MDMA, but I'm on probation and get tested regularly.

This is what the aya has done for me. And I'm glad it did, because it has caused me to do the things I needed to get myself back on track. The rough trips were catalysts for changes I needed. I'm thankful for those.

Sometimes the drugs are bunk. That's OK: you've had experiences of LSD in the past and I'm sure you will again in the future.

Oh yes, not a doubt in my mind. I will have more soon, that I KNOW is some good stuff. I'm hoping the experience will have a positive light!
