All of my trips usually have some bad moments, especially when I get bored. However, the worst trip ever was when I took an eigth and then got diarrhea in the middle of the city. The paranoia of possibly shitting yourself is bad enough sober, but when you can't think rationally, it's horrible. I walked into a McDonalds but there was a long line for the bathroom, and then my vision started getting white and hazy; you may know what I'm talking about, it happens when you're really sick or about to faint. Anyway, I defecated and regrouped with my friends who were also tripping, and we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge at dusk, with the moon up and the city lit and visible, and it immediately became the best trip of my life. Everyone got philosophical and was so blown away by the experience and was thanking me for providing the shrooms; we all bonded and it was a good ego boost.

i feel your pain man. i used get this feeling every time i smoked weed. i used to run away and hide in peoples gardens and try to appear nonchalant.eventually i got a reputation as "the guy who thinks he's going to shit himself every time he get's stoned"
but i got over it. and i find myself a better person for the whole experience.
stay strong.

btw I agree with your point about being able to will yourself into a good trip...I recently did acid in the peak of oxycodone withdrawl and I made the impossible possible...I enjoyed myself...something I thought was just not possible in bad opiate withdrawl
I don't recommend this btw if it turned bad(which is fairly likely) it could leave u tramautized

I've had one terribly bad trip on acid, at the time i thought that i was invincible and would never have a bad trip, damn...i was wrong, and sorry for it. The good thing about it was that it gave me a great deal of respect for any phsycedelics, and now whenever i want to trip i think about everything thats going on in my life and decide if its wise to trip and 4 outta 5 times i decline to take the trip. I probably trip about once every 2 to 3 months. All in all, i believe lot of maturity and respect can come from a bad trip..

Bad trips are different for every person. Some people can pull out them easily while others are consumed by them. I had a bad trip, really bad trip, where I panicked. I was not 100% familiar with what to expect and as a result lost complete control. This resulted in anxiety in my sober life because of the experience. I have tripped since and feel confident that I can control my emotions more, but that trip will live with me for the rest of my life.
Messing with your mind can have very adverse effects in your sober life and should be taken seriously. Point being, do not mess with the power of the mind.
Bellylard, I am very interested to hear what you are experiencing. Is it anxiety or something more?

whenever some one is afraid of dying on psychedelics, it is not the being who is going to die, tis only the ego. our being identifies with/attaches to the ego and when the ego is threatened our being can identify with it and suffer through the ego's death or it can let go and surrender the useless portion of our whole-selves, the ego. our being can never die, it is constantly transforming just like the universe. now our bodies are another story, they give out all the time, but our being lives on.
i have never had a "bad" trip, only intense trips. this is b/c i know the drug will only act upon me for a short amount of time. anything difficult that comes up; thought loops, anxiety, scary visuals(havn't gotten any of those myself) will be gone with the drug as it leaves my systom.

Most of the trips I've had on mushrooms were bad, at least the first two hours cause of the anxiety+body load. Then I started taking xanax and I stopped having bad trips. I used to almost always end up in the corner feeling like complete shit, scared outta my mind. Another time I was in the forest, it was pitch black and I felt so shitty I just wanted to leave so I started walking away from my friends cause I wanted to lay down away from everyone and goto sleep, they asked me were the fuck I was going, so I went back. All through this I was having ego death as well and people were talking to me and I didn't know what they were saying, I didn't even know my name. The worst mushroom trip wasn't as scary as my best DMT trip though, DMT just scares the shit outta me, and when I tried it on LSD it really kicked my dick in the dirt. Mind blowing experience, but so is death, doesn't mean I'm gonna stick a gun in my mouth.

i have had one BAD trip on mushrooms.
it was my fourth time shrooming and i ate 2.5 grams.
i went to a local park with my friends and was in a bad mind set during the come up of the trip.
i soon started throwing up in the park and yelling at my friends to drive me back home.
they took me to the car, stayed park and we just relaxed listening to bob marley.
i eventually came down but quite thankfully i dont remember much of the bad trip itself, so i never had any "emotional scarring" from it.
i did however learn to cherish the simple concept of "going with the flow"

Personally, I beleive that bad trips occaisonally cause long-term anxiety problems. If you take a look at how many people on this site suffer from anxiety problems its ridiculous (myself included). Dont get me wrong Im not some anti-drug activist or something I just think these drugs are definetly not for everyone and you can never tell if they're right for you or not until you've tryed them and sometimes 1 time is all it takes. It also seems pretty logical seeing as how everybody here has probably never had more anxiety than during a psychedelic or psychoactive drug experience

i've had a couple bad ones. some were just rather uncomfortable and i wanted them to end. only one was a full-blown panic adrenaline fight or flight demon war hellride. they were all my fault. bad trips are 95% avoidable.

they are. set, setting and dose.
if you are healthy and feeling good physically, your mind is at peace, you are in a positive, engaging, safe environment, and you take a reasonable dose, i really don't see how a bad trip is even possible.
describe your typical tripping conditions. what do you do to prepare? where do you trip? with whom? what do you do during the trip?

I think a lot of bad trips that leave a negative impact on ppls lives are probably ptsd...anxiety is a bitch and will wreak havok on your life once its introduced(and will make u question everything including yoru own beliefs and sanity)
this would also explain flashbacks actually
