Anyone find trip sitters "In your way"?

So I always trip alone and recently for the past 3 trips I thought it would be nice to have a trip sitter. But I find trip sitters as a nuisance. It feels like just their presence doesn't feel right while I'm tripping just having them there makes me feel claustrophobic for some off reason. And sitters get annoying when they ask me simple questions for example, Do you have a charger? What's on tv? Where's the remote? Can I play your games? What time is it? Can I use your bathroom? It feels like any question they ask are soo hard to answer and it annoys the heck outta me it also makes me feel like I'm taking care of them! Then what also annoys me is when I want to have a conversation but he or she is so engaged on their phone. And sometimes my sitters will trip me, like one second they're laughing then the next second they're looking at their phone all serious it makes me feel very unsure of my sitter I know it's not their fault but I don't like the feelings of the quick transaction from happy and giggly to seriousness. Also sometimes just having them there feels like a bump in the road it's like they don't belong and I'd enjoy the trip better by myself.
So I'm going to trip tonight with no sitter and I will feel much better tripping without one.
Does anyone else have the same opinion on having a trip sitter?

For some reason on high doses I don't feel safe to urinate, I have a fear that I am going to rip my dick off for some reason haha, SO I NEED a sitter. Idk why I felt like telling you.

For one your sitters seem not to be sitters. look up some shaman rituals and find out what guidance is all about yo.

Never needed one, never saw the use in one. In general I don't like being around people that aren't tripping they have a tendency to kill my vibe.

The very idea of a trip sitter always seemed downright ridiculous to me. I think it's something that those who are psychologically fragile or just novice invented.
Unless you're doing an off the charts dose or have a mental illness (shouldn't be tripping), you don't need a "sitter".
What many of us do is have a few friends over who take the same psychedelic in either the same/lower dose. We find that there is always someone with their head together enough to regulate things, and also that peaceful music CONSTANTLY playing and keeping the group small will prevent shit from going too far south almost indefinitely.
I've never seriously considered the idea of asking someone to sit sober for a trip of mine, the way i've learned to do psycho-actives makes that idea seem foreign and uncomfortable. Yet strangely I don't advocate tripping alone.

In my opinion, people in general can be a big distraction while tripping. I like tripping with close friends, but I feel that I get a more whole experience when I'm just by myself. Too many people talking forces me to interact I suppose too much, so I lose a little magic.
One tab of good Lucy and I'll just put on a good playlist on my headphones and longboard all over my town as it washes over me. Head back home, enjoy the peak

There's only 2 people I will solo trip around and it's my 2 best friends even then I'm like shit well you should be tripping too *sad face*.
The only substances I think require trip sitters are Salvia Large doses of lemon tekked mushrooms Very Large doses of Lucy DMT(possibly)

I call that person the designated driver, they don't need to sit me in ANY other way

From what I draw, you don't seem to need a sitter anyway. A sitter is meant to be there to keep you safe, if they're not tripping with you, you don't need them unless you want them there or it's your first time (pretty much)

I tripped tonight with two of my buddies, and in retrospect we would have needed a trip sitter... for some reason my friend thought it would be a good idea to put some gas in his frozen pool and light it on fire.
Long story short, it will now cost a couple thousand dollars to fix his pool. I honestly don't know how the hell it got to that, I wish I could have stopped him.
Oh well, we're all gratefull we didn't attract any unwanted attention. Must have smelled like burnt vinyl a few blocks over.

Trip sitters aren't really needed. The first time I tripped, both of my friends there were drunk off their ass, and they just did what we always do drunk, watch movies or play Xbox haha. 22 Jump Street on a strong hit of lucy was so confusing and hilarious at the same time haha.

Yep the only "trip sitters" I've ever had are friends that would take a low/normal dose and still be "there" while I was gone in the cosmos. Feels more comfortable that way to me because they are still tripping but at the same time if something seriously went wrong they'd be able to function enough to do something about it lol.
I always have weird anxiety around sober people when I'm tripping even if it's not a high dose. But it's different when you are turning someone else on and they are having a good time to but aren't losing it at the same time.
I've done this for my friends a couple times. My buddy wanted to take 7gs of some good shrooms once and I just took an eighth. Ended up having to hold him down a few times from running into the garage door full force idk wtf was going on in his mind lol.
