No Face said: im not mr mckenna. so when i take 5+ grams for the real psilocybin experience. sometimes its a little much on the mind and ill eat a quarter to half a xanax bar. it gets rid of all the head space shit. doesnt affect the visuals in my opinion. i ate ten grams before and the visuals where so fucking amazing and everything was fine for 2 hours but it got to be a little to much and my anxiety was pretty bad. ate a half a xanax and it chilled me out and i enjoyed the fractals.
I love Terrance Mckenna and Dennis. I’ve been having great visuals on about 2.5 g of certain varieties of mushrooms. My last trip I had intense visuals but was trying to ignore it because my head space was just terrible. 5g just gives me the feeling when I was in hs before a big football game or wrestling match. It just gives me so much anxiety from my last bad experiences.

I also prefer mushroom over lsd because when I’m ready to sleep I can on mushrooms. On lsd I can’t sleep. I can only do that weird half sleep. On mushrooms I’ll have a bad trip but great dreams when I fall asleep.

I low dose mdma "appetizer" all but erases the panic push I get from tryptamine come up. 1.5-2hrs before 50-75mg is perfect for me.
If you want just visual with no headspace 2cb is the ticket, it is like psychedelic champagne

Xanax and other benzos will dull the trip, but they won't kill it outright. It can be fun sometimes to combine the two, but I don't recommend it because it does dull some parts of the trip.

Check out Lemon Balm tea, 3 to 4.5 grams of dried leaves made as a tea consumed with the mushrooms.

I personally love come ups on tryptamines, they make me feel hyped for the experience.
If I get anxiety I just close my eyes, do some deep breathing, before I know it, I am tripping

Exstortion said: I like that quote you added at the end.. so just keep dosing and eventually I can get back to that feeling of bliss with golden teachers? I was having strong visuals last night that I usually like but was just trying to ignore because my head space wasn’t right. It’s just wild I only ate one TC shroom and 1 Honduras and tripped that hard. It has to be less then 2g
Every trip is different and it's important to note that not every trip is going to be "visual". And because of varying potency, you can have a 2g dose as strong as a 3g dose or a 3g dose weaker than 1g. So it's all relative.
Anyway, in my experience, lower doses make me more uncomfortable. They aren't "frightening" but can be more unsettling because the entire "trip" never gets past the "come-up" stage.
Higher doses can be more frightening during the come-up and at various points among the waves, but they almost always give way, at least from my experience, to something incredible.
Instead of Xanax, get a scale so you can weigh your doses for more consistency.
Pick a dose and work with it. Slowly increase your dose over the course of a few trips (giving enough time in between for tolerance reset).
You won't avoid the anxiety but working your way up can help you anticipate it and deal with it better.
Or take a big dose and dive in. The earth shattering experience might just take you beyond that fear.
For what it's worth, dealing with anxiety and fear during my trip has alleviated fear in my sober life. So I find it incredibly valuable to be able to work through those rough patches during trips.
That life shattering feeling is what is keeping from doing dmt again. I still have a descent amount left but I just can’t get the courage to do it again. I’m gonna take some shrooms again when I feel like I had a great day.

Hey man that song is great! When I’m having a tough time on a trip I play that song and it helps to put me at ease. I gotta do some research on phish. I had a friend then seems them religiously. I never cared too much for them until I started taking trips. He’s also the first guy to introduce me to lsd. I gotta get back in contact with him.

Yeah it relieves anxiety, provides some relaxation, and smooths out the come up. It contains a compound called Rosmarinic Acid which inhibits GABA Transaminase and raises GABA levels in the brain, i've used it successfully with mushrooms, with 4-ACO-DMT, with Psilohuasca, and with Ayahuasca, and it does pretty good and doesn't seem to take away from the benefits or headspace or overall experience ime, my gf and some of her friends have also tried it and seem to like it. So it's a pretty good natural option for anxiety relief compared to using benzos imo.

Well you have a new friend in me who has also seen phish somewhat religously going on 28 years now
