Anxiety from shrooms.

Hey guys, recently I have been getting very bad anxiety and I know for a fact its from shrooms. Ever since my last trip, which was an ego death one, I just randomly have been suffering from it now since march. I never had anxiety before this. My point is, will I be fine soon? I usually get it the worst in the mornings when I smoke. I smoke a ton of weed too, so does this play a role in this?
In advance, thanks!

I would say that you should take a break from bud for a while. this effect is common after intense trips, and it'll go away with time but I think it's the weed that's bringing you into this uncomfortable mindstate

the first time I experienced ego death, which was on LSA, it took me a while to regroup back so I can enjoy normal life again. It wasn't that I was anxious as much as that everything became meaningless and grey looking for about a week. I kept thinking about the experience and everything else seemed so much less important then what I went through. But it fades, it takes about a week and you will start feeling better. You will definitely still think about, but you're not going to be preoccupied with it once you let it integrate. Your ego died, it's like you died and came back to life, that's a pretty important event so it's a natural reaction. By the way weed _always_ caused me to overthink anything I'm going though at the moment, and has a strong effect on my anxiety as well. I didn't even think of touching another drug after I went through ego death, but I assume that if I smoked weed during that time I would have such an extreme anxiety attack that it would be just as bad as reliving the LSA trip. So if you can try to not smoke (as much), that will definitely help and instead spend time with friends or loved ones.

Do some meditation m8, you need to defrag your prefrontal cortex (without trying so sound too geeky).

I've noticed after a particularly hard trip, weed gives me super anxiety for a while. Otherwise I am pretty normal, but bud brings that out occasionally.

Weed brings you into the realm of subjective thought, the stepping stone to anxiety. Have some more shrooms yo.

these substances are causing your anxiety its you causing your own anxiety the substances may just be influencing it.
there may be something on your mind that's bothering you that you need to work through.

This might be a bit out of context, but anyway: When I started smoking bud, I loved to sleep high, getting OBE's (out of body experiences) while laying there on my bed in complete darkness, but after smoking like year or so I started having these dizzy glitchy shitty fucks while I was laying down while high as fuck, made me even pukeish/dizzy in a bad way - couldn't sleep for a while with weed, stopped smoking before sleeping. But one day, which was complete smoke day (like..5~grams smoked that day) I layed down on my bed, completely high and I focused. Like real hard. Focus focus focus. I focused on my state. State of existing. Of being. And then I woke up after 12~ hours. Since then I can go to sleep high like it's no problem. Everything is in your mind and mind can be controlled by your mind. Free your mind and your ass will follow.

Shrooms can provoke a lot of anxiety. I like to take small dose kratom bwfore and possibly during the trip. Helps sooooo much. And for some reason it gets rid of all yawning completely. Idk if I'd try valium. But kratom won't kill your trip or visuals, trust me. Great stuff for anxiety and not killing your trip. Take a low dose like 3-4 grams. And when you're feeling good, take the mushrooms.
Oh and don't smoke weed until the comedown. It WILL fuck with your anxiety. As far as daily use, I would just cut back a little. If I'm smoking all day for a few days I can tell my temper and anxiety get worse. All about moderation. I'm still a daily toker but it's like one or two rips in morning and then all I want after dinner. This keeps things straight for me

Thank you all for your input! I have been told to shroom again a few times, but since ego death its quite hard to want to do it again. Which sucks cause I LOVE shrooms. I just wish I could hallucinate without feeling weird or stuck in my own mind ya know?

You're right. Something must be bugging me STILL. I just can't pin point it. Whats funny is druing my last trip, I thought as if the little "Journey" I went through helped me overcome lots of issues. Maybe I have to go back.

Ill definitely try that next time, I love kratom! I can picture that working out a little smoother. Maybe another mistake was I smoked a bunch of weed during that trip.

well that's your problem right there. smoking weed in small amounts can definitely add to your trip but there's a thin line between a nice addition and a bad mistake.

idk just like every trip is different so is the use of cannabis with it.
set and setting.
during my bad trip smoking weed made me irritated and full of anxiety because i could not feel these small ass one hits this asshole kid i was with was packing and it got me stuck in this "loop" where it felt like i was repeating the same thing over and over. the bowl just kept shitting and i barely got a hit. it was really happening though it just didn't feel as interesting as if the shrooms did it yknow.
every other time it has made my trips more fun and a little enhanced. the shrooms over power weed though IMO.
im a huge pothead though so
