What do you do when you get too high?

I recently made a "mistake" and ate way too many of the mushies I grew! I ate 5g of penis envy via tea which was fantastic, btw! About 15 minutes in I already noticed that I was feeling tingly and I knew what was coming.... Before I knew it I was tripping so hard that all of my senses became so heightened that if a noise was made my head would jerk as if though a bomb dropped! Everything I thought about was to the extreme and my mind was thinking of everything and nothing! I was extremely antsy and couldn't do 1 thing for very long without having to move on! I tried to "walk it off" go outside and see how things were, they were great and then I thought about a walk and got about half a block and realized I was way to fucked up to be walkin... ( very safe area though) so I turned around! I then came back inside and tried to play with some gloves and other lights, they were OK, but my body just wanted peace and quiet so I sat in the dark and at times closed my eyes(which is fuckin awesome, so many shapes! My body was buzzin like crazy, and then after a few hours I started to want to do things again! So I played with my lights and had a damn good time from there on out! 6 hours I was tripping that hard.... And the entire time my body had a weird feeling to it as if though my body could backfire on me and make me puke depending on what I was doing and how long I was doing it for! I was very emotional about everything so when I thought about things that made me nervous I had to actually tell myself to not be freaked out and to think of something else,which I did! It just happened over and over and over, I couldn't believe it! It was probably my least enjoyable trip because I was just too uncomfortably high! This trip taught me valuable lessons!!
1. Don't ever eat that many mushrooms ever again!! Lol! 2. For what was happening I did petty good stayin calm and occupied with things to keep my mind busy! I controlled my anxiety because I had to or I think I could have freaked out and just had the whole night go very differently! 3. Thank god I had a vape pen with some good shatter ready to go because I was way too fucked up to use a torch to heat the ceramic bowl up! Weed was a life saver... It helped me come down faster, but, it also got me a lot higher at first and again, made me feel uncomfortable at times! Had to be careful how hard I was coughing also because it hurt my stomach to cough and made me get that throw up feeling! Always have weed.... 4. I was rediculously high and I had great visuals BUT, I thought about something after, I always thought it would be cool to see things on a psychadelic drug! Things move around but nothing was ever created without me wanting it to be created! I have heard people tell stories where they saw things, is this realistic or are people just boosting what actually happened?!?! 5. Slightly repetitive, but never fuckin do that again!!! Lol!
Has this happened to you, and if so what was your trip like, how did you feel, what were your thoughts like?

turn off your mind, relax, float downstream. when I get too high I usually just lay down, try to listen to music and ride it out. Sometimes there is nothing you can do but ride it out. But generally I enjoy high doses.

Everytime I plan on doing something like a crazy hike or journey while tripping, I always end up just sitting on the couch listening to music while melting into the universe.
I really like to just flow with acid when I am on it, and imo the best way to do that is to get in some loose comfy clothes, get a comfy chair, and listen to your favorite music
Walks can be very nice though, especially if it's nice outside and the sun is still up. Other than that, all I ever do while tripping is either hanging and talking with friends or like I said, music.
The reason I don't like to do much while tripping is because it can be borderline frustrating if you're looking for something like your shoes or phone or god forbid if you LOOSE something like that, so I just prefer to keep it simple. I find the less mental processing the activity needs, the more likely I will enjoy it on acid.

Was your mind exhausted after you trip really hard? I felt so drained... What do you enjoy most about high doses! I love the visual aspect.... My trip was just to intense for my body!

Oh my god.... I frickin hate not being able to find something! It is very frustrating! Everything I want I usually set it out so its easy! Acid is very enjoyable! And yes, simple is best sometimes! I have a complicated electronic light that my friend made and with an app on my phone I can control it... He had to write me a booklet so I knew which settings worked with each part of the app! Complicated, but fun to toy with!!

My first few trips left me feeling pretty drained (LSD) both physically and mentally. I have learned though that to help prevent this, all I really have to do is eat a solid meal earlier in the day before dropping and staying hydrated. Now a particularly strong experience will probably still leave me feeling pretty fried, and that's just how tripping is really.
I guess that's also another reason why I tend to be pretty lazy on psychedelics now too, because when you don't go and exert all of your energy that it helps a lot when it starts to really wear off (at the very end, when I usually tend to feel pretty drained, "fried" if you will lol)
Shrooms never seemd to do that though, but do keep in mind that acid lasts more than twice as long as shrooms so it might just be that.
The more you do it though, the more you get used to it. When I first started to trip on acid, I thought it was way too stimulating to the point where it made me feel pretty uncomfortable, but now I don't get any feelings like that (and yes, all my acid is tested first)!
Guess I didn't quite read the title right though, so here's my response - when I get too high (start tripping too hard), I tend to resort into my bed and I just put my head under the pillow and pop some headphones in. It effectively dissconnects me from the whole world pretty much haha so if I feel like I am tripping too hard, it calms me down.

If I get too high I like to sit or lie down. And try to let go as best I can. I feel like I was too high in the 200mg 4aco DMT trip report that is in my sig, so when that happened I flopped on my bed, let go and gave in to the trip. I continued to get higher, but since I had given in and was no longer in control (but safely in bed) I had a very amazing trip.

I am always exhausted after tripping. What I like about high doses, the intense effects. Not the visuals so much, my trips arent always that visual, but the insights, the emotions, the healing, etc.

Didnt read the full post but get some sugar or carbs in you, do yoga or take a hot shower.
Too high is all in your head though. Ive taken more than i was ready for but as soon as i started to get scared i would say "No you are not going to make this a bad experience." and i would calm myself down and have great experiences. Ibfeel you thou once things get intense its hard to get it back to a chill experience. sometimes you have to wait until the shrooms wear off.

Exactly what I did! But it kept coming back and made it uncomfortable!

In some situations I agree with this. But being too high is definitely situationally dependent, like if you're frying on a ten strip and being questioned by the police. There definitely is such a thing as being too high. It's not always all in your head.

Good on you for staying calm during a difficult experience. You should feel proud that you didn't wig out and call the police or anything else that you'd regret doing once you sobered up.
When I take too much and start to panic (which hasn't happened too many times), or when I just get a bit panicky in general, I like to go into my bed, get as comfortable as I can, and simply ride it out. I remind myself that I am 100% safe; I am not going to come to any harm; things are going to get less intense pretty soon; all I've done is taken a drug, and the effects of that drug will end sooner rather than later (mushrooms are a lot more merciful in this regard than other psychedelics.) I also like to repeat mantras (either verbally or writing on paper) and concentrate on my breathing. I also meditate, and simply feel the fear and panic. I don't ignore it; I embrace, it label it, and say to myself "This is what fear feels like. This is what panic feels like. This is what trepidation feels like."
If I'm able to use a laptop, I like to put on some non-threatening music or a TV show that I'm able to laugh at; something that can distract my attention and that will pass time. I always end up going back to Alan Rockefeller's talk on the mushrooms of Mexico. It's super non threatening, it's very interesting, there's lots of pretty pictures; I find the whole format of the talk very calming and relaxing. Alan has unknowingly guided me through 3 or 4 difficult experiences. If you're reading this, thanks buddy.

Just relax in a nice spot and put some good tunes on, usually combats most forms of negativity for me anyways, even though I don't consider myself a hardcore tripper or ever had an overly negative experience, besides bizarre disorientation on DXM.

Yeah didn't consider DXM the slightest bit psychedelic, just horrible intoxication and a bad hangover the next day, but nevertheless a bad decision to touch that shit

Lol yeah in that case there is for sure. I mean if all of the discomfort is internal then if you just distract yourself or imediately thunk about something else (Weed makes it harder for me to forget bad thoughts btw) until you start coming down you wont freak out. Once the visuals fade away you should feel releived and maybe even get to enjoy your come down.

When I was like 12, I was watching SNL and they had a skit with Dan Aykroid playing Jimmy Carter, appearing on a call-in show. One of the callers is a kid on acid having a bad trip. Jimmy Carter talks him down. At this point I can't remember what he said, but it was along the lines of - relax, you're just high on a drug. I made a mental note that if I ever tripped on acid and had a bad trip, that's what I'd tell myself.
Years later when I started tripping, that little mental note came through for me and for my friends. You're high, just relax, it will wear off and everything will be fine.
Can't seem to find that skit on youtube - I'd love to post it. Funny as hell!

Breathing is good. Nothing relaxes and refreshes like a big dose of air on repeat.

Whatever is going to happen is going to happen so don't fight it, just ride the walrus.
Lastly, have some chilled tunes to listen to. The right music can guide you through all sorts of weirdness.
