Question

i had a few group trips a year or two back. the weird thing is their were always one person that went into a seizure, or would be standing and pass out right out the blue we would have to grab them so they wouldn't hit their heads on things. the person would only have one or two in a trip. although their was one friend i had that went into three. when he went into the second one we said if he has one more were gonna take him to the hospital.he did and we took him. from my understanding the people that had them were drug abusing, doing allot of meth or coke, maybe a few e tabs not to long before the shroom trip.
Question= why do people get seizures during some shroom trips?

There is a threshold called the seizure threshold. Certain drugs can lower the threshold and make it easier to have one, such as coke and meth. I think you hit the nail on the head.

Ok man. I can relate to this. I had a friend who tripped for the first time and had a seizure. My friends had made a tea using a stocking (teabag) with about 100 caps in it (all psilocybe cubensis). After about an hour he suddenly sneezed, then tensed up and fell back in his chair and then fell forward. WOke up and then threw up. We were all thrown into an whirlwind about what to do (Still tripping)...
He ended up ok and he's fine today. THis brings me to some kind of conclusion. I think that some people have seizures when they are tripping because of a mild case of epilepsy. This is probably similair to the seizure warnings that are on game consoles(xbox, ps2 ect.,), and strobe lights It has to do with the eyes and how fast things are moving in front of them. I dont think he should trip on huge doses, if any. Tell me what you think.. PEACE

the people i knew that "fished" explaned to use that they were drug abuseing so i just asumed thats what it was. although i thought of the epilepsy also. i guess its just to much for some peoples minds that it resets their brains. im not sure what it is thats why i mad this thread.

I had a freind seize up while on DXM (I know - stupid, worthless drug). Turned out later that he had a preexisting conditon - he had more seizures later while sober, and the doctors assured him that he probably would have had a first seizure eventually, drugs or no. However, it was the drug that triggered the episode. As Fractalated said, the drug lowered the seizure threshold.

people with epilepsy are often embaressed about it and don't tell people... I can understand being embaressed about going into a seizure in front of people...
Anyway my Uncle claims mushrooms will give him seizures... but he says lsd doesnt. He also does coke. Pot will bring him out of seizures or at least make it manageble and calm it down. I read pot can save people having seizures from getting brain damage.
anyway from what I know people with epilepsy even if mild could possibly have a seizure on mushrooms... in the old days they said it was demon possesion.... maybe ... it would be easier for a demon to affect someone on mushrooms (mushrooms change your dimensional presence... thats why you can see things you normally cant)
