What do you guys do during the come up? 1

I’ve been using mushrooms for many years. The very first time I did them, the come up wasn’t that intense. Since then, I’ve eaten them around 20+ times I’d say and every single time, the come up really bugs me out..but only for a few minutes here and there then I’m okay. I’ve eaten up to 10 grams dry in one sitting and the come up is still the same as if I eat an 8th. This past Friday I ate an 8th and the peak wasn’t very strong compared to others but still, the come up gets me every time. What did you guys find as a solution? If there is one, if not. I’ll find a way lol

I've been tripping for many years, and coming up is still rough. That just goes with the territory.

Try not to focus on coming up. I find listening to music and laying down can help. Meditation or just acceptance of what is to come.. not trying to make something out of it, just be  Whe our mental state changes it can be rough for sure, know you will be okay. It's what you "signed up" for

I still struggle with this. I was coincidentally coaching myself on the matter recently and have also accepted it as part of the process.
I was thinking recently that anxiety might not be a part of tripping. I think it's something I've extrapolated onto it. I have some anxiety at many points in life but when it happens tripping I assume it's the trip not the normal emotion happening when I'm tripping if that makes sense. Typical anxiety management techniques go a long way for me when tripping so that's what I do when coming up.
I'm also happy to see this thread. Thanks.

Anxiety is a natural feeling. It used to be that anxiety was so we could survive but now its becoming a useless trait in our essential survival as humans. Used to be kill or be killed for a lack of better words. Now it's all displaced and we are fretting over the smallest things in our life. The anxiety we feel on psychedelics could be from our natural state of being, how much we hang onto and the abrupt change of mentality, feeling, sight changing can freak us out instinctually despite taking the journey many times. It's like flying, I get anxious every time I fly even tho i know for t most part i will be okay.

Solid advice

Some recommend lemongrass tea but I find that, no matter the dosage, there will be a somewhat uncomfortable come-up (even on small doses its there just easy to ignore)

Personally I feel a lot of those methods are psychosomatic and ways to comfort mentally rather than alleviate actual symptoms. I find coffee very calming on psychedelics but for a lot of people it would be the opposite. It could also be a familiar thing that you feel at ease with.

I love taking showers during the come up. When the first uncomfortable symptoms of anxiety kicks in I rush under shower and just stay under warm water with eyes closed for 10-15min. It's super relaxing and after that I feel "cleansed".

As others have said, it's normal and an inevitable part of the experience.
Some people try to distract themselves during the comeup with music, computer, walking around etc... I've been there myself. Now I just lay in bed, grin and bear it, knowing from previous experience that it will soon pass that it's more than worth it.
I kinda like that the worst part is usually at the beginning and then apart from feeling a bit tired the next day it's all good from there on, of course that's not always the case but often is.

Great ideas and thoughts. I've had the urge to drink coffee and to take a shower during the intro so that's funny. I appreciate all of your perspectives.

Either chant various sutras during the come up, read, short nap or rest, take a shower & brush my teeth and change into clean clothes, and-or do anapanasati, forgive myself & others of all transgressions, pray, zazen meditation etc etc etc
those are my go to’s for getting appropriately centered for the psychedelic experience to come - always something along those lines or a combo of them.

Maybe its just me, but a hot shower is a great way to relax and lose some body tension. Then I go get right in bed.
Controlled breaths can help with anxiety too.

Controlled breathing has helped me in the past. Most times I start with focusing on breathing then my mind just kinda wanders on it's own in a way. I find that can help any anxiety because you are almost so focused you end up forgetting about your anxiety and even the fact you are focusing in the first place Haha. You just come out of it and not feel so much mental/physical tension.

Showering is a good antidote to anxiety & restlessness because of the warm-to-hot water & vapor’s ability to naturally relax me.
If one is experiencing an unpleasant feeling then the pleasant feeling that is produced when one takes a shower can equal out to a neutral feeling.
If one is experiencing a neutral feeling, then the pleasant feeling of a shower can equal out to a pleasant feeling.
If one is already experience a pleasant feeling, then the added pleasant feeling of a shower can equal out to bliss.
This is how it works for me, more or less, when on psychedelics. Alchemy! Lmao.

I do this too or take a bath. For whatever reason the warm water calms me and helps me ease into it. Like everyone else said though I think that it’s pretty natural and part of the experience. I take lots of deep breaths and remind myself it will pass

Basically whatever I feel like doing. Whatever helps to get comfortable and embrace the experience, the anxiety. Indoors I have found having music on or playing a guitar is what I tend to go for. Once I start tripping and stuff starts coming up in my mind, I just lay in bed.

I normally just chill and put on some good music. I find if you make tea it skips through the come up much faster so you normally don’t have anxiety for nearly as long.

I find the more I am doing the less I feel the come up. If I'm outside doing physical activity I hardly notice it. If I'm doing something which requires a lot of concentration like playing a video game or doing a puzzle I feel it less. If I am watching a movie or video I feel it moderately. If I am laying in bed listening to music I feel it pretty strongly and if I'm laying in bed without music I feel it very strongly.

Stretching helps with some of the body tension. I typically have a few drinks before I dose. Tends to help with some of the anxiety. Usually, I try to stay as comfortable and still as possible until it passes. Short chill walks also helps.

I really dont have much come-up anxiety. Its a little uncomfortable sure but nothing too bad.
While Im coming up on shrooms, i usually just listen to music or sit still and contemplate. I also eat my dried shrooms with food which slows down the come up, maybe that makes it easier for me

If I have been eating - then I can do anything that is not too far from a washroom where pressures from within can be easily relieved, and water splashed on the face: reading, drawing, listening to music, making music (garage band on my iPhone or pocket operator riffs). It takes a while before the stoned mental gyroscope takes over.
Otherwise a long walk in nature is wonderful, it brings on an early sense of balance.
yesterday (1cp 40mics) an hour after dropping and reading a book on my computer (white text on black in a dim room) I was like a ball in a ball in a ball with each ball rotating slowly in a different spin (like the gimbals of a gyroscope), this can be a bit gut wrenching so the washroom was relief.
Things became much more interesting and less difficult at the 1.5 to 2 hour mark: the text I had been reading became rainbow crystalline candy clear, and the appreciation of the words was multi-layered and rich. patterns in the floor formed amazing characters from historic and imagined times and places etc.
the coming up seems to continue beyond the 2 hour mark - or maybe it is just the peak itself with new awakenings to peakiness. The ball in a ball in a ball stops madly gimballing at 2.5 hours - and one can hover from then on in expanded mind space.

Sounds amazing.
I like your running water comment. Ive found when a trip is getting too intense/overwhelming, running warm or cold water on my hands really helps me calm down. Water has a healing effect. Its really nice to have a sink nearby.

Smoke a fuck-ton of pot, if that is insufficient I find myself in the shower under a trickle of hot water. Strong anxiolytics like Ativan can knock the edge off, but they also take some of the joy from the trip.

Well if one has some, a little cocaine will fix one's mood, and make for a nice transition. Probably one of the better uses for coke. And as it is a short acting drug, it won't interfere with the trip.
Of course if meditation worked for you, you wouldn't be asking the question.

I used to have a lot of come up but since starting to trip on Pans that's all in the past. Girlfriend is very sensitive to nausea during the come up. Nothing what so ever when tripping on Pans. I cannot recommend them enough!

When I'm coming up I always feel rough even after almost a hundred psychedelic experiences. If alone, definitely try to do things to take your mind off things - clean your room, tidy the house, have a glass of water or chamomile tea. Take a short walk, sometimes just sit there waiting, but keep in mind claustrophobia can kick in mentally so do get up and change the scenery often.
Breathing techniques, herbal tea, absolutely help. Avoid kava though, chamomile strong cup of will do very well. Sometimes listening to chill music can help a lot, other times it can be invasive.
Regardless of the rough come up, even after the ROUGHEST of come ups when I was dry heaving and laying on the ground in the bathroom for an hour unable to keep water or anything down - by the time I start peaking everything is lovely and amazing and the experience begins. keeping that in mind and just waiting until that happens helps a lot too. If you have a garden, get some light gardening done.

Thats the amazing thing about psychedelics, when you get past the rough parts, the resulting other side is so Heavenly and Amazing, you just completely forget about the troubles you just had previously in the trip.
Antigov, always a great idea to mediate on the come-up!
