Sleeping/Passing out pre-trip -WORD OF CAUTION-

This is just a post to let people know that one of the scariest experiences I've ever had was buying some shrooms while I was drunk, and then coming home, making the sandwich, and then PASSING OUT on my bed. I woke up in a REAL hot sweat about an hour later, real scary stuff waking up not knowing what the fuck is up with you. It was the wierdest thing. I felt so weighted down, partly because I was so tired, but the shrooms were keeping me up. It really sucked because my body was saying one thing, the shrooms were saying another, and the whole thing just made for negative energy. I was so thirsty, but I was unable to move more than a couple inches without almost collapsing onto my bed. So what I did is in one strange motion, I grabbed my glass, and threw myself at the bathroom sink, grabbed the edge, and drank a couple cups of water, this went on all night, getting up for drinks, and then staring at my FUCKED UP image in the mirror. It's hard to explain what I looked like, but it was real scary, imagine the dude from hellraiser (with all the pins)... My face had all those little dots on it. On top of that, I had a big pimple in the center of my forehead that was slowly forming a horn. Needless to say, I was scared shitless the whole night. The worst part was waking up to it tho man, you have no idea what it's like being THAT disoriented on a depressant, being hot, and unable to move. Oh yah, that's another tip for ya'all, if you're trippin, get the temperature to 67 degrees, because I turned on my space heater before I passed out to get it nice and toasty for the trip, because I tend to get cold, but because I fell asleep, I think my mind pretty much left everything out, and was unable to regulate my temperature.
The cure: It took a lot of fucking will power, but I managed to throw in Fantasia and catch some fun moments, I'd have to say that the feelings of uncertainty were pretty bad though. I think something everyone should have around is a backup plan. Just like a fire escape plan when you were a kid. It's gotta be quick, simple, and associated with happiness subconciously. For instance, wireless headphones with a music source playing at all times is a fucking life saver. I just posted about some high anxiety during trips, if you have it, a GOOD set of wireless headphones is great. If you're feeling sick/tired/anxious, slip on those headphones, and RELAX. *insert favorite cd*
Does anyone here have any experience with Kava or any other natural relaxers? I'm interested in doing it...
Thanks,
apples

Two things.
From my opinion alcohol and shrooms DO NOT mix, at all. Of course that is just my opinion.
And Kava is a nice relaxant, if that is a word... but meditation is by far the best natural remedy for relaxation I have yet to come across IMHO.

Being tired doesn't help either. It's quite painful being full peak on a trip and your body NEEDS the sleep. If you're really tired, get some rest and dose the next night.

I was considering melatonin as a relaxer if your having a bad time, or getting anxious during a trip. Melatonin is the stuff in your brain that tells you its time to sleep (I think). Its sold in walmarts or health stores I think. It is very calming, but its used to help you fall asleep, so I donno how that would work. Might give you that, "I'm physically tired, but the shrooms wont allow me to fall asleep" feeling. I've taken it and it really helps me to fall asleep, and I have the most messed up dreams when I take it (sober). Anyone with opionions on this? Anyone with experience sober or tripping? Could it have a dangerous reaction? I'll have to post something about it when/if I try.

My first experience with any pyschedelic (acid) was a wake up from being drunk as well. Luckily it was a small dose and my temperature wasnt an issue. I passed out at 12:30 woke up at 1:30 got back tosleep at 7:30.

Me too!! When i take a fat dose of melatonin before bed and wake up a few hours later, I usually see red dots floating around too.

Hmmm... Never actuially saw anything from melatonin. I just have really messed up crazy dreams, very detailed.
It warns on the back of the Melatonin agenst using it with MAOIs. No one knows if taking this while or even before tripping could be dangerous... Would its usual sleepy dreamy effects happen, or might it intensify the trip, like syran rue (sp?). I'm just starting now to think that mabie I'll end up taking it cause my trip might start turning bad cause its too intense or whatever, and it'll end up intensifying it. I've had it around the last few times I've tripped, but no need to take it. I'll actuially start a post bout this sometime.
