So i had this scary experience in a trip i wasn't ready for, and it seems like a lot of people having level 3+ trips think they are dying also. From the trip reports ive read people say its hard to stay positive through this and fighting through it with optimism produces a feeling of being at one with the universe.
have you guys also had this scary experience, and is their a way to not grow anxious and fearful through this to stop the beginning of a bad or anxious trip?

Theres more to it than "thinking your dying". Those sorts of trips are showing you something, either your not ready or your learning a valuable lesson. First time i had that was on my very first trip, i thought i was dying, then i realised that im not dying, im just scared of dying, then i realised that i dont need to be scared of dying.
Thats how mushrooms work for me. You just have to dig a little deeper to find the meaning. Enjoy.

That's happened to me plenty of times. In my experience the only thing to do is to say "okay, If I'm gonna die then bring it on." Its really hard to do but if you can break through that you will have a true experience to remember.

For me, this is the most effective. I do the same, telling myself that I will just except whatever comes, because you really have no choice.

awesome post, pretty much sums the entire problem up.
I find music is one of the most important elements to tripping, maybe its just me but a good song like one of my fav songs can turn a bad trip good in just a few minutes, i imagine a high dose with a favourite album would be a good chance of a good time

If im some serious hardcore mushroom territory, I find its best to put on some melodic beats of some sort (Radiohead Kid A) and lie on my bed and just soak it all up. I find that i cant really "translate" the mushroom lesson while im tripping, usually on the comedown I just chat with whoever im tripping with and make sense of the whole fucking thing.
I remember that first mushroom trip... Me and my friend decided to go to france, his family owns a run down cottage in the middle of knowhere, so we decided to leave the next day. We got on the ferry, got onto the next train and then got to the nearest town to the cottage, and hired some bicycles and missioned it to the cottage, that night we had a cup of mushroom tea and a chocolate mushroom bun each. Fucking beautiful week that was.
