Benzos in combinations with psychedelics

I'm wondering on this combination as I was told that they take away the sense of a trip. If this isn't true then it would almost be perfect to take with them for you would not have anxiety or paranoia (especially for a beginner). I'm wondering if benzos would be good to have on hand, if they could be used as a "bail" if you're in a situation where you have to stop tripping. Or if I could just take it if I start getting very paranoid and on the edge of a horrible trip.

I have pretty bad anxiety everyday, and when I was tripping alone on an eighth for the first time I was totally calm coming up, very weird. I think it'd be better to save the benzo in case it starts to go bad, if you want to use it just to stop the anxiety coming up you should take a small amount (like .5 mg of xanax or a 1 mg ativan). I never got xanax but I've been trying to find it forever, I was even going to buy some online but I think it was a scam.

Yes, benzos are one of the best things you could have for a situation like that. It won't stop your trip, but it will definitely ease those anxious and negative feelings and lessen the bad vibes. Some people actually take benzos with psychedelics for a milder trip.
Using benzodiazepines during a bad trip is common practice.

benzos will not take away from a trip

I once ate 30g fresh with 1mg of Xanax. I was on a beach in the Netherlands, and I saw a bodysurfer transform into Neptune, the Roman god of the sea, smiling at me. So yeah, I don't think benzos take away from a trip... but they do relax you.

Benzodiazepines can be a blessing for some folks who just can't relax while tripping.
A modest dose of xanax can turn a dysphoric trip into a fun relaxed time with amazing reliability.

In my experience xanax and ativan takes away the trip quite a bit, by reducing visuals and thought process

lol, I remember recently some dude at a festival was selling bars with LSD dropped onto them I thought it was pretty funny as one 2mg pill makes me completely forget what i've been doing so taking more than one hit would be asking for a blackout
I guess that doesn't really matter at a jam fest though but I prefer to remember the awesome time I had

They're great to have around in case of emergency, but otherwise they really dampen the whole shebang IMO.

You can take around .5mg of xanax before the trip for a "protected" trip or something like that if you are a nervous type. It doesn't take away from the trip. I think marijuana takes away from the trip exponentially more then benzos.

If you're not the kind of person to get nervous easily, then maybe benzos take away from a trip. But if you're like me, they just keep you from engaging paranoid thoughts. That's assuming you're taking a normal dose (0.5mg to 1mg Xanax). I'd never take more than 1mg.

Benzo's with psychedelics are great ive done it way too many times. Just dont take too many. I once did 3 grams of shrooms, 3 hits of acid, 16mg of 2c-i, and some syrian rue tea. Later on i ingested 6mg of xanax and had the time of my life. I just have too big of a tolerance. But yea low doses on psychs's will have you more mellowed and zoned out anyways. Just wait until the end of the trip to take them.

Kind of like riding a bike with a helmet? I think Cannabis intensifies a trip exponentially. Either way, whatever I add to the mix I think it's best to wait until after peaking.

Grass does intensify the trip but it seems like it does so in a non-visual way. I remember taking 3 geltabs and having a great time until I got stoned for my first time in like 4 months. Quickly scattered my thoughts and made for a very confusing trip. Maybe its just that one experience that has turned me off, who knows?

I smoked weed and salvia (low dose of salvia) and it just made it all fuzzy for me. I didn't like it.

Obviously everybody's different. Weed intensifies all aspects of a trip for me, including visually. It also makes me feel like my head is exploding. Not fun at all...
