Some reflections on an uncomfortably high dosage, and the experience which followed
    #23629499 - 09/09/16 03:50 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)

Up until a few days ago I, like many of you here, considered myself to have a lot of experience with and a lot of love for the psychedelic experience. I look back fondly on all of my memories from past trips. One that really sticks with me is the time I took my dog for a walk on acid and I could see huge beams of light coming from the sky that had me laughing so hard I was knocked to the ground. The closest I've come to a 'bad trip' in the past is this one time where I had a vague sense of 'impending doom' and uneasiness one trip, but it was easy to ignore and get over it.

A few days ago however I took a dose of around 5 grams and was entirely unprepared for the effects it would have. It came on hard and fast and the severity of the hallucinations made me panic. Reaaally heavy waving and distortions came on pretty much straight away. About half an hour after eating them I was stood at the toilet taking a piss and the toilet turned into a mouth and started moving in and out as though it was speaking. I've never had such intense visuals with my eyes open, and it was just such a "woah i'm fucked up" moment that it made me panic for a moment and I was never really able to snap myself out of it. I literally just sat there for hours with full ego death while the world melted around me until it started to wear off.

Looking back it was entirely my fault. Maybe it was the mushrooms trying to teach me to have more respect. I do consider myself a cautious and educated psychonaut when it comes to tripping, but in hindsight I had complete disregard for set and setting and really underestimated the power of the mushroom.

It most likely won't be my last trip, but I am definitely taking a break and taking some time to really reflect on what went wrong and the feelings and thoughts that I had during my experience.

I thought I was ready for an intense trip but it turned out that I'm not, and I let myself get panicked too easily. Maybe I would have been better if I was not alone.

Is there a scientific reason as to why hallucinations can make us panic or feel uneasy? I was thinking that maybe it's a biological reaction towards possibly being poisoned or being ill? There seemed to be a real physiological fight or flight reaction to my toilet morphing into a mouth.

Any thoughts/stories?

you've lived XX years perceiving the world in a certain way, and we call it "reality."  you ingest something that makes you perceive the world around you in a profoundly different way.  your mind is unaccustomed to that and it rebels against the alien experience.

or something like that

Yet it's strange.  There are peripheral emotions like sense of atmosphere, ambiance.  Psycadelics can play with th most subtle senses, or completely blow past senses.

Perhaps.  But reading that trip report I don't see where anything went "wrong", more like you just weren't ready for it...  There's always the first time that reeeeeaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllllllyyy blows your mind. :shrug:

Now you know so you can just sit back and enjoy it the next time.

FWIW mushrooms are emotional amplifiers and so any sort of emotional reaction (fear, panic, whatsits) can get totally overwhelming.  I once weirded myself out, very strange feeling that.

Entheogens are Beings. These Beings were called "God" by people like Christ, Buddha, Moses, Mohamed, Shiva, Lao Tse etc. - and They ARE God.



  "There is a Spirit who is awake in our sleep and creates the wonder of dreams. They are Brahman, the Spirit of Light, who in truth is called the Immortal. All the worlds rest on that Spirit and beyond Them no one can go:
  This in truth is That....
  As the sun that beholds the world is untouched by earthly impurities, so the Spirit that is in all things is untouched by external sufferings....
  They are the Eternal among things that pass away, pure Consciousness of conscious beings, the ONE who fulfills the prayers of many. Only the wise who see Them in their souls attain the peace eternal."
--Katha Upanishad
