Need some help before my next trip. =D

I've been preparing for my first solo trip for a couple of weeks now and it's almost here! I'm -extremely- excited about this, but have one question that require answers (before Tuesday 4/11/06) if possible.
I tripped three times, with groups, but wasn't on any of these natural supplements at the time. So, I didn't have to worry about anything.
Should I discontinue the use of my natural supplements a day or two before my trip, because I wasn't sure if they would interact with the 'shrooms (or leaving me feeling weird during the trip)? I figured it was best to ask before jumping into it. It's no problem to cut them out for a couple of days, but if I do it'll most likely make me feeling a bit different *not bad* (no serious medical problems though).
The supplements I'm on: Acidophilus. Proteolytic Enzymes. DMG. Free form Amino Acid Complex. Vitamin B Complex. B-12. CoQ10. Multivitamin. Milk Thistle. Dandelion. Pau d' arco (tea).
Anyone know?? Thank you!

I'm pretty sure they're okay...
I've never experienced anything odd or porportional to my diet and shrooms
Then again, I'm the really wrong person to answer, but I can tell you solo-tripping is awesome

I was thinking they'd be okay, but didn't want to chance it. Thank you for your response!
SOLO TRIPPING OMGUHZZZ. Excuse me while I dance and dance and dance. It will also be my first trip during the day. I'm actually more excited about this trip then the first time I tripped! *Dance dance* I didn't think it was possible to be this excited.
Sorry about the double post. My computer decided to get spazzy when I tried to post the first one.

Bump.
Not to nag or anything, but the trip is coming and I'm still curious.
I put my tripping music together today, and burned some CD's. mmmm.

Actually I can tell you I've eaten shrooms many times during periods of my life where I was on just about everything you mentioned (except acidopholus or DMG) and it was no problem at all. None of those supplements are altering enough (even in combinative daily use) to significantly affect your trip, positively or negatively. I'm only speaking from what I know, and I'm certainly not neurologist or nutritionist...but I am a nerd, and like I said, I've done it and it was absolutely fine.
So let your mind be at ease, and have a great time flying solo.

If you are on or have recently been on and methylated prohormones or steroids, I would be somewhat concerned. The presence of milk thistle in your "stack" is a red flag to me that you may have just finished or are currently on a cycle... If your not then every thing else your taking should be OK.

personally i like to take my trips solo more so than with groups. groups are fine by me for the party atmosphere but nothing (imo) can compare to a solo trip. for me its more of a self exploration. i feel that i can delve deeper into my psyche without the distractions of other people. i feel as though i learn more about the meaning of life and my own existence in general. as far as you supplements go. you seem to be on no mind altering chemicals (if you are stop taking them for awhile first). i would say that you should consider these as body and mind enhancers. unless your taking steroids as someone hinted at (stop that immediately, they do more harm than good). most of the substances you listed are essential for your well-being. dont worry about you vitamins. think of them always as things that make you a better, stronger person. it would be your worrying about them that would manifest itself into a problem in your journey. you already know that most of the things you are taking are good for you, no? so, dont worry about the good things (stop doing the things that will do you harm). and you will be just fine

Thank you so much! Those are the only thing I've been on, so no worries.
The reason for the milk thistle is that I had mono at the beginning of the year, and my liver values were three times what they should be. Since I've been on the supplements, I'm a lot better. Since I'm better, my mind is at ease, and my body feels fantastic ... it was just the right time to have a beautiful journey into shroom land.
hIgHdRoLoVeR, I'm with you on the group thing. The three times I did it I really wanted to dig deeper and learn more about myself (possibly lose myself completely =D), and everytime I always had some worry for a friend of some sort. Nothing too bad (all my trips have been spectacular), but just enough to keep me from completely letting go.
Which is exactly why I'm so excited about next week's trip. If I want to think the couch is God, I CAN! If I feel the need to have wild sex with the couch, because I want to praise God, no one cares!HOORAY.
pr0n is the best, fresh313 ... good call.
