Hello guys.

I waited a few more days on purpose, just to be sure that I'm not mistaken. And as of right now, I think we can carefully conclude that the patient, i.e. me, is showing some rather positive signs of making progress :smile:

I now eat normally, sleep normally, no panic attacks whatsoever, and even when I do get worried from time to time, I just slowly breathe in and out and feel how negative emotions just dissipate. Everything is slowly coming back into focus for me now, and I can see the life in all colors. I'm still thinking about this a lot, but now it doesn't take 100% of my thinking process, which is a huge load off my shoulders. Just like you guys said, getting yourself busy with something really does help to normalize and get back on track.

I will be taking it easy and slowly for the next few weeks or so. I temporarily gave up on caffeine entirely, don't have any interest in drinking alcohol, and maybe I'll smoke a nice joint in a month or so later, if I feel like doing so. Maybe what happened to me wasn't even anything out of the ordinary, I mean, psychedelic experience can be so intense that it will take different amounts of time for each person to adjust to it and to process. Besides, I really was too careless with my setting. I think I might be looking to trip more in the future, when I'm ready. Perhaps I'll meet my friend and we will go to some quiet, beautiful sunny place somewhere in nature.

Certainly. Putting all the negativity aside (I mean, with such terrible setting, what did I even expect?), I think it is still an interesting lesson. It gives a lot of food for future thought when it comes to listening to yourself, accepting yourself and reality, dealing with day-to-day problems and challenges, however hard they might seem to be. I don't feel the need to feel so bitter about many things now.

Yeah, I can certainly see what people mean by that now. Well, it will take some more time to process it, but all in all, I'd say it looks more and more like just one of the many challenges that a person encounters through their life.

It is really hard to overestimate all the help and support you've given me guys, and I just want to say thank you so much to everyone of you once more. The New Year is just around the door, and I wish you peace, love, self-respect and many other amazing things that psychedelic community is all about :smile:

I know this all may sound laughable to the people who have taken heroic doses and seen the daemons hunting them in the jungles or something.





You're among friends here, brother. Nobody is laughing at you. We all understand just how challenging these experiences can get. I promise, none of us think we're tougher than psychedelics and any trip can become difficult.

I've always felt heroic dose is a silly term because it attaches ego to the experience. Nobody should try and be a hero on psychedelics; just do what's comfortable for you and don't rush yourself into higher doses. Hell, Terrence McKenna got his shit rocked HARD on mushrooms and basically never did them again after that. Even experienced psychonauts can get rattled.

A few things I suggest you consider:

1. While the memory of being lost might still be fresh and scary, please remember it. Not to scare yourself, but to remember that you ran into an unfortunate situation, got lost at night, were all alone, and things got pretty difficult and panic set in... and you handled it! So much of that experience was the unfamiliarity of it all, but now you at least know that if shit gets bad, you can still navigate yourself out of it. It's a good bit of confidence to have in future trips.

2. Always clean your place/room up before you trip. It's one of life's little pleasures that really help with your mind state during.

3. If you have close friends IRL to trip with, I suggest the buddy system. :smile:
