Hey this happens to me and I was wondering if it happens to other people as well. Whenever a scary thought comes to mind (like seeing a commercial for a horror movie) every other scary image I have ever seen pops into my head. Like it just starts this train of scary images from old movies I saw. And for the life of me I can't stop thinking of scary things after it starts. I just keep scaring myself more and more. Just wondering what other people think of this. it's preventing me from having a good time tripping.

The best advice I could give you is, "Don't waste your trip watching T.V.!"

no, I just used a commercial as an example. I would never watch TV while tripping. I mean if someone says something and it reminds me of a scary movie, or if for some reason I randomly think of a part in a scary movie, my mind just starts this flood of images I can't get out of my head.

You are letting your mind "loop". I just distract myself as much as possible with positive stimuli.

I try and distract myself but am always pulled back to thinking about scary stuff. I wish I could erase my mind of all the scary things I have ever seen.

Focus.....concentrate.......practice mind control w/meditation in your spare time. Your mind is a muscle, work out.

you know you could be right. a lot of my friends have started to meditate everyday. I personally have never done it but now I think I should. it's a good point you make saying my mind is a muscle, makes you think about your brain differently. cool stuff.

Those words changed my life! I'm a completely different person now. Studying many different religions and relating all of the common grounds to mental purity furthered this change dramatically.

The thing to remember while tripping, is that you are in no more danger than if you were sober, that is unless you start running the streets naked yelling "the world is fake the world is fake i have proof!!!".....dont ask.
just keep it mellow.

This is why I like tripping during the day. Everything is positive stimuli, as the colours are bright and beautiful

I love it, day, night, winter, spring.......OK, spring days top them all! So much color and life to be seen. Glorious! Makes me want to camp out in the mountains and trip for a few days.

I have never tripped during the day time. I think I need to try this cause I always feel better as it is during the day.

i have tripped over 50 times since i started tripping 3 or 4 years ago, and have never had a bad trip until this summer, when the last 5 trips i had were so bad i might never be able to trip again. i almost feel like i get possesed now when i trip, and its not fun, and its near impossible to break away from that thought. i had the same trip on 8 grams, all the way down to 1 gram. any ideas on how to deal with that?

Surf the bad feelings, and they'll just wash over you and subside. Like when you're in great physical pain, you can let it wash over you and it doesn't seem important anymore.
Here's the best analogy I can think of - you know when you're walking down the street and it's freezing fucking cold and the wind is howling? You know the way you can sort of relax your body and mind and the wind seems to go straight through you and not affect you? If you're following me, try and do that with your mind. The bad feelings (wind) will not really affect you, and thus not truly be bad.
