For when tripping on shrooms. Like for what do you guys do not to get scared? I have heard that meditating before eating the mushrooms works

its good to be in the right mindset and most important is the setting. eating shrooms is not like smoking a joint with a buddy and then going out to a movie/bar/someone's house....you get the idea. ive found you cant abuse the mushroom...if you try you'll be in for quite a frightening experience.

For me, knowing I dont have to worry about anyone coming over, and that I have everything I might want, handy.
Good luck, and have fun.

dont do it during a stressful week or anything. if solotripping, i find going to your bathroom for some of the comeup relaxes you, and if you start to feel a bad trip in the making just think of your favorite memory or have a photo of a loved one on hand.
good luck!

one of the best things you can do on any psychedelic drug to avoid feeling panicky is simply to remind yourself that you're on a drug, and that's why you're behaving in an extraordinary manner. most sites that discuss the effects of mushrooms include mild anxiety/apprehension as part of the comeup. in other words, it's normal to feel a little anxious or restless as your trip starts. as others have remarked, it helps to be in a comfortable setting, with good music and people that you trust.

You may want to check
this thread
and
this thread
and
this thread
They go over things such as : how to prepare for a trip, how to avoid a bad trip, how to get out of a bad trip. I started the 3 threads with my advice in them, and lots of other people have responded to share their advice also. Instead of re-typing out all that information again, just tossing you the links - give them a read, I'm sure they will be a big help.

Experience. I remember the first time that I was able to actually pull myself out of a bad trip, I just told myself, "whatever, man... Whatever happens happens, so fuck it, i don't care if I die, I'm ready." That thought pulled me out of a bad trip and turned it into a glowing experience. If you fell a bad trip coming, then brace yourself. In time, you'll know.

Make up a ritual that is somewhat confusing, even to yourself. Involve objects that reflect light, as well as objects that emit light. The reflective objects should represent tangible objects in your life. The emitters should represent relationships.
Use at least one cylindrical object, and at least one spherical object. Some sort of incantation should be chanted. The meaning of the incantation should be discovered during the trip.
Make up a name for the ritual of the form 'noun verb verb noun noun verb'.
Write yourself a note about the ritual and put it in a place where you will not find it for a long time.
-------------------- Know your self. Know your substance. Know your source. The most distorted perspective possible is the perspective that yours is not distorted.

I love it when there are more people doing it with me. You have to have no worries and just have a totally free night to just trip balls to the wall.

personally i usually spend about 5 minutes after eating the shrooms just to sit there and relax, jst give my thoughts a chance to settle, and then go on and do whatever. Then once i start tripping, i just go with the flow and accept whatever comes at me. From what i'Ve seen with friends: as long as you don'T try to fight the effects you're ok, but once you start trying to force them into a direction, you get swallowed by it.

It really depends on each individual person what you can do. If you're strong-willed enough, you can usually wrestle yourself out of a bad trip. You may lock your doors for peace of mind, have a small meal of some of your particular comfort food for dinner, or light incense, put on soothing music, have a supporting friend around, meditate and collect your thoughts in advance, and plan around avoiding things interrupting you that would generate bad vibes.
Mindset is a very important factor to consider when tripping, and if you take them on a bad mood you're sure to have a bad trip. For me, the first rule of Trip Club is:
1. Think Happy Thoughts
And the second rule of Trip Club is:
2. Think Happy Thoughts
Good luck, -Senator
