there is something inside that is making you anxious. you need to deal with it and make yourself comfortable somehow. i have gotten over anxiety by figuring out what was making me not comfortable and relieving that. Just relax, smoking mj helps me a lot too with relaxing anxiety.

Personally I get some kind of strange felling, like I cant hold still.
It has gone away now that I have tripped about 10+ times.
So I believe its a mental thing that you can get over.. Just take a deep breath when you feel that way and just think it through... its a mindset man.
It takes time before you can get used to this "tipped out" felling. So I truly believe you'll get over it.
If you still feel that way, then talk to someone about it or have them help you with it while you trip to make you fell better.
Does this make sense to you? I hope I helped by telling you this.
-------------------- Hey Just take some time and look at this pic here, below... Its a Smile Face ON THE CAP! WHAT ARE THE CHANCES? AND THE OTHER AN 8???!!!! IS this a SIGN?

He does have a good point there. Even after several trips I still get the odd trip where I just can't feel right. It's like I just want to lie back and relax but I just can't manage to relax enough because something just isn't feeling right.
Try meditation. Even when I'm pissed off and just going off in a fit of hatred and hostility towards everyone who questions me and I just can't calm down, meditation always calms me down and just completely turns my mood around...

Anxiety is funny thing. It becomes much more prevalent during a trip, as emotional awareness is heightened. It all stems from your amygdala, a small organ in the brain that controls emotions. The first thing you have to do is stopping talking about it. The more you talk about your anxiety the more it stays in the forefront of your memory.
A good trick is diversion. When you feel anxiety coming while tripping or even sober, divert your thoughts. Listen to loud music and sing out loud, splash some cold water on your face, watch a really good show that requires your attention. The worst thing you can do while feeling anxiety is nothing. Doing nothing gives you way too much time for thoughts and consequences. Don't plan anything either. Be spontaneous.
Do not do anything that would become a trigger for anxiety in the future. If you have a panic attack, get up, walk around. Avoid looking at yourself in the mirror, as this can be a trigger for panic attacks in the future. Just remember, panic attacks, while very scary, cannot harm you. They are just sensations brought on by behavioral conditioning, in other words you are bringing them on.
If you feel anxiety coming on very strong, you may experience a panic attack. This is okay. You are not going to die from this panic attack and it will subside. Say to yourself "These are just sensations I'm feeling, I will not die from a sensation, these sensations are meaningless, I am going to enjoy myself right now". These will help you get through some of the rough spots. Remember, you are causing the anxiety, not the mushrooms. Only you can pull yourself out of it. Do not rely on others to help you either. Relying on others will only create a temporary crutch, not cure the problem.
That is about the only advice I give you right now. I wish you the best of luck.
