Shroom trip. Bad trip.
    #23340769 - 06/13/16 07:35 PM (7 years, 8 months ago)

This is the morning after my first shroom trip and I feel I went through hell. I've woken up this morning grateful that it's over and still carrying a bit of anxiety. Don't know if I'll ever trip again but also kind of want to because I reckon I know some of the worst it can do.

I stupidly did a lot of things wrong and was punished for it. I woke up with a hard hangover (alcohol). Already felt anxious and embarrassed for things I had done the night before. Was alone and decided to take fresh shrooms I had picked a few days previously, judged the dosage by eye.

Everything was good. I came up gradually, started getting visuals. Sat looking out of the window, it was a beautiful day and the colours were really vivid and dancing. Then everything changed.

I live out the back of a main house. When I came back the night before I was pissed and couldn't get in to the main house to use the kitchen and reckon I broke the back door knob, easily fixed and no big deal. But, While I was tripping, I heard the person who discovered it shouting and swearing and this tipped me over the edge instantly.

I drew the curtains and lay down on the floor hoping to hide. I still had mushrooms over my table and tried to get rid of them but I was too panicky to think straight. Noises were so much louder and I couldn't do anything. I was talking gibberish to myself in a quiet, paranoid voice.

Then comes the paralysis. My limbs start tingling and at this point I'm utterly convinced I am going to die. I start freaking out big time and every part of me is trying to resist it. I know I've eaten a deadly shroom.

I make a video on my phone telling my mother what I had done and how much I love the family. Basically saying goodbye. I should also mention I live overseas and don't know anyone in the country. Certainly not well enough to help me now.

I feel I should go to the hospital but the paranoia battles back and I realise I can't leave the house. And I'd have to deal with the consequenses, or even worse, be restrained. I'm caught in no man's land, can't go forward or back. Knowing I'm gonna be a headline in tomorrows paper.

I call my ex who knows nothing about drugs to come and take me to the hospital. I kept repeating to her over the phone that 'I'm not crazy' and 'I'm not going to hurt you' which sounds like the opposite of what it means, but I was having a psychotic break. Every thought I'd ever had was racing through my mind and I couldn't tell what were thoughts and what was real.

She comes and asks me to come outside. I can't. I think she's called a mental institute and is trying to lure me out on their behalf. So they can tackle me. After a while the feeling I was going to die won and I left quickly.

She drives me around. I beg her not to take me to the hospital, just to sit it out with me unless I have a siezure. I was really freaking her out talking like a paranoid schizophrenic and I'd devloped this tic in my hand while finding it hard to breath. I was a mess. Scared of everything, laying down, going to sleep, going home. Seeing a familiar face made such a difference though. Eventually it passed enough that I could go home again and I hid under the covers for the rest of the night.

It lasted a long time, I still don't feel right now but I know thats normal. Just felt I had to get it out there.

I'd been researching them since last year. Didn't find any then but took the research pretty seriously, hence why I know everything I did was wrong. Also posted Id request to be safe. I was confident when I picked them but a flood of doubt just came in the panic.

I feel ya, it can be easy to forget how powerful these little things can be.
If you dont mind me asking how old are you?

It sounds like your preparations were put together haphazardly and no real thought of set and setting were taken seriously. The only reason i ask your age is that my so called worst trips. were between 18-25 yrs of age. I was reckless and cocky. I was at a camping music festiva,l dead tribute festival and drunkenly took 4 hits of potent LSD from an old head who warned me of possible consequences.

An hour went by and nothing.... I then foolishly bought and ate an eighth of the most potent shrooms I've probably had to date. Idk.

Long story short I spent the next 12 hrs bawling in the fetal position. All the demonic entities in this universe showed up and transferred evil/ true terror and horror straight to the core of my being.
Not even gonna get into the alien entities that followed the demons.

I wasnt right for 3 mo. after couldn't make eye contact with people. Even quit a good paying job. Panic attacks the whole 9 yards.
But I did eventually feel normal again.

When i look back on this I look back fondly, because I learned to respect psychs for sure.

Im in my late thirties now and have still tripped just as hard as then in not so great set/settings. weird thing is that I never even approach bad trip status.

I dunno I just try to be fearless and the main thing for me is just go with it. Let go. I stay interested and fascinated where ever they take me, understanding that fear leads to more fear. Stay brave and feel privileged that I can go to these places they take me being curious and intrigued instead of trying to hold on. Which ime leads to fear.

Also remembering its just a drug. It wont last forever helps if anxieties get to be unshakeable.

I guess the bad trip reports seem to invoke more of a response necessity. As others said, you went into the trip wrong due to poor planning of your time. I really feel for you, sounds awful but how much did you eat? You don't describe anything but a trip of intense panic.

Were you seeing colors, did you not feel other emotions? Having done shrooms 3 times I really fail to understand these kinds of experiences but then again I've always taken set and setting seriously.

You're anxiety will lessen with time, just lay off drugs for a while and get good amounts of sleep and exercise.


--------------------
My Psychedelic experiences:
LSD - 30+ times (2 hits min / max 3 hits) every time.
Shrooms - 4 times (2.5 - 3.5g)
DMT - 5 times (Powerful breakthrough only once)

Life can be one hell of a bitter pill to swallow so I chose acid instead -YeOlde

Really a typical example of wrong set and setting.
I can imagine how horrible that night must have been for you, i'm glad you are ok physically and I hope you are mentally alright too.
I hope you have learned from this and always take proper precautions when taking those substances.
It can be such a beautiful experience if you are prepared!

Peace,

Nizmo

Failing to properly measure your dose was not a wise choice for your first trip.
Did you consume all the mushrooms you posted in that id request?

In time you'll work out the difficulties though, and this experience will probably
show you the necessity of preparation and dosage control for your next trip.

Start small, so you get to know what you're dealing with. Best of luck!

Thanks. I'm mid twenties. Yeah, totally haphazard. I know what you mean, in reflection I am strangely grateful for the experience, although I wouldn't want to go through it again. I've read a lot more trip reports which I didn't do before and feel more confident and respectful.
