Yep. The last time I tripped, about two years ago, I royally flipped the fuck right out. I have not tripped since. Nothing happened, really, except for a panic attack that lasted for an hour or two. It seems like everytime someone starts to freak, there's always some genius who says "hey man, take a hit of this, it'll relax ya." Never works for me. Oddly enough, it let me go, or I finally found the answer to the Shroom's riddle and started feeling good. I did learn a lot from it. Just too difficult yet for me to go another round with Teo.

To the original poster; never take shrooms in a car, man. Never take shrooms and get in a car. You've got to respect the shrooms if you're going to take them. Getting into a car tripping, passing blunts, is just asking for trouble.  When I did trip, it was only once every year. I suppose you might want to think about why you want to take them in the first place, then moderation.

They may not be good while you are in them but the most insights come from them. Don't get me wrong, you can learn alot on a trip where everything dissolves into unity, but you are much more likely to learn from a trip where something is on the line. The way it normally happens is that people think they have killed themselves or eaten too much or bad shrooms that will kill them. Then, the fear kicks in, and that gets you even higher, and the intense trip scenario plays out. Since the person is usually inexperienced in usage they interpret it as a bad trip. I know how it is to be caught in the depths of a psychdelic hell that I helped invent. It is the fucking pits, but you must remember that you will come out on the other end. I wouldn't consider my most powerful trips bad trips, I would say they are fucking intense. If you can't handle intensity then stay away from large doses. That is all that is up there in the 5+gram range. There is no problem with low dose, its just what I think you would probably prefer if you say fuck bad trips. Bad/Intense trips are where the true power of the mushroom resides.

He just described the bad trip I had perfectly.  It was only after I let go that I felt better. I could have felt better much sooner, but through suffering came learning and understanding, so  "bad trip" isn't really a good term for what I experienced. More like a difficult trip.
