Packing in capsules or making tea?

The two times I took shrooms I had an overall wonderful time, but towards the end (maybe 5 or 6 hours or so into it) I would start to feel like they were lasting too long and start dwelling on some deep, frustrating issues about god and my life and whatnot. I don't think I'm emotionally unstable, but I do think everyone has problems in life and towards the end of these trips I started thinking about some of them, and one time I layed down to try and go to sleep during a comedown and that went really, really bad (not trying that again). Time slowed down dramatically and I dwelled for what seemed to be days on negative, depressing thoughts.
Anyway, I would like to hear your preference on the method of ingestion for a short and intense experience. I know I cannot prevent the possibility of a "bad trip" but I know, based on my other trips, that a shorter experience will be less mentally straining.
So which is better for this, washing down capsules or brewing up some cubensis tea?

personally tea never did it for me (meaning i found it a waste of shrooms mostly)..maybe i didnt do it right or boil long enough capsules hit fast and are easy to dose but that does not really reduce the duration of the effects of psilocybin, rather it decreaces the amount of time it takes for it to hit your bloodstream... the trip may seem shorter because the peak is reached faster but the duration will be about the same... neither of these will help with bad trips..
for me, the best thing to do when you have a bad trip is learn from it and try to change whatever it is in your life that made you unhappy... when i find myself dwelling on the negative its not hard to start thinking of positive ways to change what your having issues with in your head... and once the positivity starts its not hard to keep it going..think positive!
thats part of the beauty of those magical mushrooms.. new perspective on your own life and the insight to see things coming and change them (imo).... happiness is much like beauty..its in the eye of the beholder and comes from within...and sometimes it shows itself externally
as far as ease...go with capsules you wont regret it

The answer is tea...
Tea seems to be shorter and end more evenly

mushrooms kinda force you to deal with those things one way or another
i've also heard good things about tea for a short but more intense trip

thanks guys, you're all very helpful as usual.
I think I'm going to encapsulate them just so they are a little more inconspicuous in a medicine bottle, and if I want tea I can just break a pill and stir in the powder.
