trippin alone vs with others

Ive never tripped by myself before, and was just curious about other opinions regarding the pros and cons of tripping alone vs with others. Of course it depends on who the other people are. Lets just say that it is a close friend in the latter situation. Which is more enjoyable? What kinds of things could one do to have a positive trip alone?

when I tripped alone, there is no one else to wig you out. I have a friend that wigs me out. Then there is the other friend that freaks out about everything and thinks the cops are coming so you gotta calm him down. Then there was my girlfriend who took 3 grams with me and bad tripped and cried and thought she was dying. Ruined my up high, I had to calm her down.
I tripped alone and wow, I could just immense totally in the experience. Then one time it was scary. I thought I was going nuts and needed therapy. However, I just worked through it and came out fine...
When you are on really high doses it doesn't matter who is around, you just close your eyes.. so do it alone and don't risk someone whigging you out.
When I trip alone in silent darkness . . . . that's where it really gets real.. Try it.

Tripping alone can be an great experience. Make sure you pick a place you like, ensure you are prepared for all eventualities(water, mobile phone etc...) and take a walkman with you. I experienced walking along a deserted beach on a high dose of philosophers stones. This was an increadible experience that I will never forget!

trippin with friends can present complications. You hang out with your friend Bob all the time, but you never really think about who Bob is. When you trip with Bob, whether hes tripping or not, you may find something you dont like. On the other hand, you may realize several profound commonalities that strengthen your friendship. Ive experienced both. People that I get along with while tripping are usually some of my closer friends.

Tripping with others can reduce your risk of a bad trip, but IME, tripping alone is how you get more insightful trips.

Tripping with real friends who you actually like is good, but tripping with people you just tolerate, not so much.

When tripping with friends i find its best to be around at least 2 people who arent tripping...that way if you or someone else whose tripping starts geekin out then the other person on shrooms doesnt have to suffice the experience, thats what the two non-shroomers are therefore...not to mention its funny to hear about your trip from a sober persons perspective (and they tend to let you do your own thing...and not get all paranoid cause they have it under control)
