First Trippe-Im terrified of a bad trip, need help

Hey everyone, I need a little help with my first time doing shrooms. First off, I don't know what kind they are (i know they are safe though, is it a problem?) and I plan on doing 1g-1.5g's. I am going to do them with a friend and we will have another friend as a guide, none of us have done them or even been around people with them. We plan on popping in the beatles with the lights out, maybe watch TV, he has a bunk bed, the other tripper would lie on the bottom i would lie on the top (dangerous)? Any tips etc? I can't help but be nervous, one friend said, and I quote "Its either the best or WORST time of your life", thanks alot.

You won't have a bad trip if you: 1) don't care whether or not you have a bad trip 2) can roll with the punches 3) take 1-1.5 grams

Oh, and for tripping no bunk beds... but you won't be tripping on 1-1.5 grams... so have fun.
Did 10 grams 3rd time tripping... no bad trip.

Just relax. That's the main way to avoid a bad trip.

I don't like giving that advice sometimes... becuase sometimes when your stuck in a bad trip and your trying to think what to do, you remeber relax... but you try so hard to relax, that you can't relax... thats why I say just roll with what comes, and try not to feel to bad if you see your dead grandmother crawling up your leg with a knife in her teeth. At the doses you mentioned, your not going to have a bad trip... and going into it with that much more confidence can be what keeps bad trips from forming.

LOL I know, but it's really the only thing to do sometimes. You just have to force yourself to breathe steadily, focus on good things and so on. Music helps, and being on a low dosage shouldn't pose any really problems. When you start peaking, you just have to tell yourself to relax, because sometimes it can be pretty intense. For me, the climb to the peak is horrible on shrooms. But once you're there, it's perfect. Don't start screaming that you wish you hadn't taken the shrooms, or that you want to come down. Remember that you'll come down, all in good time, try and enjoy it until then. Pretty much everytime I dose, I do feel quite nervous. Sort of like butterflys in my stomach and whatnot, but once the trip kicks in that is all gone.

Thanks for the advice guys, i just gotta ask, do the beatles actually make sense on shrooms, I hear there music can only truly be enjoyed on drugs.

Same here, I get the butterflies throwing up in my stomach too. Every time. But also, every time it always ends up being awesome.

Go out and buy The Yellow Submarine video. That was awesome shrooming. Never made sense to me until I watched it tripping.

if you don't want to have a bad trip, the most important thing to do is DON'T WORRY ABOUT HAVING A BAD TRIP!!!! if you are worried going in, it makes it that much easier to generate your own anxiety. transform that worry into excitement. don't dread it, instead look forward to it.
also, have an experienced guide with you. at the dosage you're talking about you won't be able to get to far off the path anyway.
if your group of friends is ready to take flight and you are still unsure, wait for about an hour. as soon as you see how much fun they are having and you feel the first glimmer of a contact high, you will want to join in.
above all, HAVE FUN! you have just bought a ticket for a glorious journey. enjoy the ride.

Ok I have to disagree with some ppl on saying you can't have a bad trip on 1 gram or 1.5 grams. I ate a half gram, and I had a bad trip so don't lie to this person.
But you won't have a bad trip if you are ready to have a trip. You have to respect the effects of the shrooms and don't focus so much on having a bad trip. Good settings/atmosphere, lights, toys to play with during the trip, good music and maybe a movie. That should keep your mind occupied from a bad trip. If you do venture into a bad trip, try to do something else or go somewhere else and try to focus on other things, such as changing music if it's freaking you out, or play with some toys or go get a glass of water or go to the bathroom.
Another word of advice. Don't look at yourself in the mirror if you have a low self esteem. Your true feelings might come out while shrooming, and you might turn into a hidious creature, but if you have a high self esteem, looking in the mirror isn't recommended either, but people do it anyways (like me lol. I was told nothing about looking into mirrors my first time, and my first trip, I got the fun house affect.)
shroom on

Trip out like everyone told you on your other thread nobody normal can have a bad trip on 0.5 or even 1. You must be extremely sensitive to p. cubensis because nobody normal would have a bad trip off 0.5 if they were in a burning house and just got a phone call that their entire family was dead!

and try not to feel to bad if you see your dead grandmother crawling up your leg with a knife in her teeth.
I ALWAYS hate that part of a trip, Or like when you look in the mirror and you see worms slithering out of your eye sockets - UGH!

It was good advice!
The bottles stand as empty, as they were filled before. Time there was and plenty, but from that cup no more.

Try out some "Tomorrow Never Knows" off the Revolver album. Or try "Its All Too Much" off the Yellow Submarine album. "A Day in The Life" is prolly my fave Beatles tune, but it can be sad you know with the part where the guy dies from tripping and driving.
