Since I was not given a chance to respond to the thread I posted before everyone freaked out because I was on risperidone, I wanted to respond to it.. I am prescribed risperidone (anti-psychotic) for paranoia resulting from social anxiety not because of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder etc. Also I HAVE talked to my therapist about tripping on shrooms so how about you all let me respond before jumping to conclusions and locking my thread.

Calm your farm, mate..

Have you ever thought about tackling your need for said pills?  You’re going to want to be able to effectively handle anxiety before partaking in psyches.  Those pills readjust the balance of your brain in a way that not taking them for two days isn’t going to reverse it.

I would listen to your doctor because I have no idea why you take them in the first place :shrug2:

Yes, I have thought of that. I'm planning on tapering off everything but the Klonopin next month, but I still need the Klonopin as I'm trying to get back to work and my anxiety around people is debilitating. Sorry if my post came off as aggressive, but I felt it really wasn't fair not to give me a chance to respond before locking the thread. Also, I've been working hard on my anxiety issues in therapy, so I am tackling that. I'm basically trying to use shrooms as a therapeutic experience, to gain some insights into how I can better deal with anxiety.

Do not trip and skip days of your benzos

You will almost certainly have a seizure

I have been taking 4mg klonopin daily for about 12 years. All you need is a higher dose in terms of psychedelics.

I would also take cbd to eliminate the likelihood of a seizure completely

If you want to get off benzos

I would microdose, take cbd, and yeah, taper 0.5mg or equivalent for at least four weeks for each step down

Just do what feels right for you. But do *not* skip taking benzos

Edit: also taking adaptogens and nootropics post trip will help you need less benzos. Trust me, I have almost quit them before.

Oh, also take lion's mane, because it will also help any muscle pain you might experience withdrawing from benzos. Also the cbd will help

Thanks for the advice. I had a problem with Klonopin before and I've gone weeks through withdrawal without ever having a seizure, but the anxiety is terrible during it. Two days shouldn't be that bad to skip my meds, though. I'll take them all right after I finish tripping. I just hope I can actually fully trip like I used to when I was on no meds years ago.

ya there is rebound anxiety of course and sever withdrawl from benzos. wouldnt want that near a mushroom trip.

microdose may be worth a shot though. and mixing antiphycotics with mushrooms in general is a bad idea as more going on with chemistry. not only those things liek seratonin syndrome which can be deadly but unknown reactions that may not be physical like SS but causing mental distress.

its best just to wait and often folks grow out of anxiety, especially if are staying away from taking meds (as some can ake it worse, talk to DR and of course read as Drs often dont know or downplay) somethings obv need medication, but somethings like anxiety can be helped alot without meds. being productive staying fit stretching eating better food lowering sugars and excercise sun and exposure thearapy ie going to do stuff dispite it being uncomfortable. meditation and really focusing on rewiring and rethinking whats actually happening and what u do when anxiety ramps up.  obstaine from ALL caffiene and cannabis. may not cure but lifestyle will make a large difference! nto instant but if stick to it for solid 4-6 months it will help feel better. bet case changes your anxiety forever, worst case your in better shape and more healthy in general!

just feel they often jump to pills too quickly and dont promote serious lifestyle changes. there are even diets and not eating red dyed foods and weird things like that but not only does it keep u away from processed foods but also keeps yoru mind on making positive choices and that u are in control. and maybe think about anything that may of happened to make you anxious divorce deaths etc etc. look up adrenal fatigue

I dont know you and am not a dr but just something to think about before trying mushrooms as sometimes can make things worse for people. as paranoia is different then anxiety at end of life or trama.
