Aborting a "bad" trip?

So yesterday I weight out 6.5 dry grams and a placed my self in the sofa looking forward to a mind bender. Had a light meal in the afternoon but only some fruit after that. The mushies were chewed and chased with some milk chocolate. I came on slow and easy. And for a while I thought that I had a bad batch with impotent shrooms. Turned of the TV and put on some music. Everything was going just as it use to. I've done shrooms allot and LSD and all kind of drugs in my past and only freaked out once. The first time on LSD. I listened to some nice electronica and closed my eyes and saw profound geometric shapes, numbers and shapes. Then I put on this Experimental Audio Research, German experimental music by Tomas K?ner. Anyway this music got me crying real suddenly and got me really afraid. A first I was fascinated, but then the music made me see persons arms trying to open something and take whatever was inside. Then it were saws cutting in flesh. At this point I realized that it were time to make change in music. So I did. Put on some deep electronic dub. Basses where pounding and I thought that it was all good. There was a water sound in the background which could have reminded me of a beach, but now was more of an filthy street. All rainy and bloody. Again I changed music. Started to get worried that I would start to freak out anytime now. This time my closed eye visuals started out good but soon were a geometric horror pattern of dismembered bodies in blood laying on an white floor in an hangar type of building. I opened up my eyes to stop this mayhem in bad thoughts. After couple of minutes staring up in to the ceiling I noticed that the whole room turned darker. This is where I really had listen to some soothing music. Woob was the answer, an 32min long ambient journey. This music calmed me down. I really had no wish in continuing the trip. After I had listed to Woob for 45min is so I decided to end the trip. Turn of the music, turned on the TV. Brushed my teeth. Watched some Olympics and such and focused on other thing than the current state of mind. Watch my self in the mirror and some other person than me stared back, changing in to a bull, some sort of devilish bull. Went back to the TV and eventually I went to bed and slept for 10 hours. Today I have and mild headache but thats about all.
So, do you guys think it is possible to interrupt a trip. And if so, how much of the trip is you wanting to trip?

I'm not sure I understand your question.....
Their are pills you can take to "abort" a trip if that's what you are asking.

Ok, let me explain. I didn't want to trip anymore whit all thes bad thought so I "stopped" myself from trippin. Which made me wonder how much is the substance and how much is placebo?
Sorry, english isn't my native language.

Hmmmmm.
Did it work? Did you really stop tripping?
I guess it would be possible to just cut off or deny those senses. It's probably not a good thing though. Going against the flow of a psychedelic usually makes the trip a LOT worse.

Psychedelics open pathways in your mind. You can relax your mind and let it wander down these new paths.
Or, you can sit there and fight it and stop your mind from slipping - you are still high, still tripping, but you are not letting yourself fully let go to explore the full expierence of the trip.
A big factor in the intensity of my trips and how strong they are - all relates to how comfortable and relaxed I feel in that situation. If I am relaxed, I have an easier time just letting go, which will translate into a stronger expierence.
If there is something holding me back - I can 'fight' things a bit, and have a less intense trip also.
However, some times (usualy with higher dosages), they'll just pick you up, throw you down that path and you dont have much of a choice.
Music can also be a highly reflective/internal thing, even when focusing on the music - you can draw yourself into your head and be taken on journies. However, when you turn on a TV and watch something like sports - it's making use of different parts of your head, your focused on something else.

Well. I was going in a direction that I really didn't appreciate. I was just like an hour into the trip when things started to turn ugly. I forced myself into not tripping, but was still feeling the effects.
I usually never have any "side-effects" the day after, but this head ache could be one.
My trip did end kind of abruptly, but I don't know for sure if it just was a short trip due to I trip 8 days ago or if I made up my mind to not trip.
As in every psychological experience there are allot of factors to consider...

I was able to abort my LSD trips by just thinking about what the experience actually is and what differences im seeing in comparison to "reality".
There would be points where i would not be tripping at all, id go into a trance almost, just completely take my mind off it, then id get visuals and it would bring me back into the trip. Most of my LSD trips (that were closer together, when i was doing larger doses; tripping once a weekend/once every 3 or 4 days) were like this. If i would wait a few months and trip, id be overwelming and almost impossible to do.
Otherwise, if you want to abort a bad trip, take a benzo., like Klonopin, Xanax, Ativan; it (Xanax) has never made me stop tripping, but definitely helped in experiences that i felt were to intense.

I can't say for a fact whether this is true or not but a few of my buddies who trip all the time, will often times take a few shots of rum or whiskey or drink a few beers, also when I was in Amsterdamn with one of my friends they would always give us these vitamin C pills claiming it could mellow your trip out, so if you don't usually get queasy when shrooming I'd say have a little do drink or just get some vitamin C in your system. As for just being able to stop it with your thoughts I suppose this is also true but it has been my experience that once a trip get's bad enough it's extremely hard to focus your mind hard enough to stop it.

As far as I know, vitamin C has nothing to do with aborting a trip or making it more potent. Thats placebo. Other than doing it yourself mentally as described, the only other way I know of to terminate a trip is to take some benzodiazepines (xanax, valium, etc). You will feel high from those but it should take away alot of the "tripping" feelings. (plus they are anti anxiety, and bad trips are often a result of feelings of anxiety)

Thorazine is known to be able to abort trips. I heard that at least anyway

Try smiling. I know it sounds dumb but when I'm freaking out and I smile, floods of happy memories come pouring in and I end up doing some fun activity to keep my mind in the positive.

Depending on the trip atmosphere, for high intense I suggest Cattle decapitation or Fintroll, for mellow I prefer Gergorian chant " aka catholic monk chants" or for plain out trippy then the ole frank zappa

DUDE, metal while tripping is AWESOME!
Slayer would not be my first choice though. I'd roll with Unearth or Overcast anyday though. Judas Priest and Iron Maiden are sweet too.
nerd metal owns too, try listening to "The Oddessy" by Symphony X on any psychedelic drug with your eyes closed. It's an experience unto itself.

Well, DeathCompany it seems that you like the darker stuff. I usually do to. I like listening to monotonous minimal techno such as Richie Hawtin, Plastikman, Fluxion and Jetone, for an inward journey. The Experimental Audio Research album I have is called "Experimental Audio Research - The K?ner Experiment (Mille Plateaux 1997) Thomas K?ner is also known as one of the persons in "Porter Ricks" which I highly recommend! Find out more of K?ner & friends at Thomas K?ner at Discogs.com

i really wanna add something to this thread. last time i did shrooms things got pretty intense. then all of a sudden we see dog poo in the kitchen and at the same time my sister comes home. my sister started to yell at me to clean it up. i got totally stressed out and was not really an effective cleaner(throwing the dog poo on the outer wall:D). i took a minute for myself to get my shit together and try to get things really cleaned up. when everything was cool again i noticed my tripping had stopped. only the visuals were there. i smoked a huge J to get myself on the same level as my friend who i was tripping with. it worked perfectly, within 10 minutes i was totally tripping again.
