You know what I do? I just take a step back and say "whoa, things are getting to be 'too much'", and then I laugh at that. I think that emotions come in "waves", and when things are getting to be too much, it's because you're letting some wave take you away, and out of your place of comfort. Just let that strong wave hit you. Obsorb it, and laugh at how strong it was, and that you got over it. Once it's gone you'll be happy. I usually trip alone though, and it's harder when other people are in the room.

Those are a lot of good suggestions, thanks guys. I like that attitude Learyfan, its definitely what you should aim to do. But sometimes the wave is so high that it lifts you up off your feet and drops you down somewhere else. Its hard to control sometimes.

When the trip gets to be too intense, I crawl into my bed. I try to tell myself that I have taken a drug and that's why I am feeling to way I feel. My mind gets confused whether it actually is a drug experience, or if it is reality, but just clinging to the possibility that my former existence is real, keeps me alright. Also, being wrapped up in my bed gives me a very safe feeling

3.5-4.4....but I am one of those people who reacts really adversely to any drug......and yet at a different time I get no results at all..... Take alcohol.....sometimes I am buzzed and even drunk from one or two......at other times no effect.....I once drank 15 beers drove 45 miles and got stopped for speeding. The cop wrote me a speeding ticket and didn't know I had been drinking. I continued to drive another 80some miles with no problems....but I felt buzzed, that's all.....

I just turn on the TV and change it to something bright and with a happy theme.

Sometimes if things are too much I change the lighting and/or the music because that is a quick way to make it feel like everything is different. Usually, making the light darker is better for me, and not listening to music which is intentionally psychedelic (like pink Floyd or Gong) because they are trying to make you crazy.

I would not suggest smoking weed if your starting to get freaked out. In many cases smoking weed can cause this. Also clouds thoughts and such. But if your fryin hard enough it is not going to matter. Being creative such as drawing and making music is definatly a good way to calm yourself down. Also try playing with some toys or interesting objects. Or try telling stories to a friend. Me and my friend start making up funny stories and tell them to each other.

Xanax, Lorazepam, anything in this family of drugs (benzodiazapines ?) Placebo affects always hit me very soon after ingestion. If your realy fucked though you might do something dumb like eat the whole bottle. You should measure out a good dose before you eat the shrooms so that there is no chance of overdose or anxiety from a suspected overdose. Just having them there ready for you if it goes bad is very calming.
