thanks,

If your scared you might have a bad trip. You have to be in the mood or things can go wrong. Maybe wait till you feel better about it or dont do it. You can control your trip this way. Feelings blow up while tripping...Good luck, have fun and be safe...Wish I was going with you!

My personal view is that it will dampen your trip. The big thing about tripping, at least from my perspective, is the ability to "let go". If your anxious, you'll tend to fight it, which ruins the enjoyment. Hopefully someone has better words for this.

I've heard of people using a small dose of Xanax to smooth out some the negative vibes. I haven't tried this but I would think it be fuckin awesome.. I usually eat higher doses and get pretty body loaded, I can just imagine this would be an excellent experience.

The mushroom will not harm you, your not gonna OD, with that being said. The best advice I can give to you is "Just go with it"

Would xanax work while tripping? I know weed doesn't and I'm pretty sure alcohol doesn't, i agree with the previous posters advice just go with it you will be fine, as long as you are in a comfortable environment.

Sure it will, you may not notice it, that's kinda the point tho. Just to soothe the anxiety nothing more. That's what the drug is for, anxiety. I do think it would also help with the body load of high doses. You know that hard to describe feeling of your skin pulling or your body hair being gently pulled. The overall groggy heavy body feeling. Really hard to put into words.

I really hate nicotine while tripping fwiw. I'm an ex-smoker anyways but I remember it to make things less than enjoyable...

Haha, I know what you mean man. Tripping and smoking really shows you how pointless smoking is. Acid and a pack of camels made me wonder what parts of my life I was really in control of.

I always get pre-tip anxiety with all psychedlics, but its just a nervous energy for me. Its not that I'm afraid, it just excited the nerves.

What I do, is just drink a small amount of alcohol, like a couple beers. Then I get mega confidence haha, and devour whatever substance is before me.

PS - I think like a .5 mg xanax would be perfect to take the edge off beforehand.

Take a bunch,scare the fuck outta yourself one good time,and you'll never have to worry again..it'll be easy as tying your shoes everytime after...

Psilosybindude...weed doesn't work when you trip? I won't trip without a halfoz of chronic at my disposal..it sets my trip off! And the anxious feeling I get while on lsd actually seems be blown away upon the first exhale of fine cannabis..maybe its just me...I've never heard anyone say weed doesn't work while tripping..if its just the case for you,id be appaled at how much you might hhave to take to even trip! Lol...

I take 3.5 grams dried when i do mushrooms and to answer your question no weed doesn't work for me when im tripping, or if it does it works differently, the first time i took mushrooms i was at a party with quite a few people 10 or so i would say and during the 6 or so hours of tripping we smoked over a half an o/z and i never felt one bit of it, its similar to the effect of cigs also while tripping, ill light a cig because i think i should and then as im smoking it i realize it does nothing for me so i stub it out, and yet again same with alcohol i the second time i did mushrooms i was getting pretty fucking hammered and i took my mushrooms and 45 minutes later the alcoholic intoxication was all gone and i had the vision of an eagle.

That's so weird..I'm not knocking ya,its weird tho I tell you ...I allways try a new batch a gram at first then wait a week or so and take an 8th..the reason is I've gotten some shrooms that a gram will FU*K you up..even seasoned shroomers were blown away..others can be weaker..its allways fun to watch your buddy eat a quarter and yourself a gram,then realized how messed up you are on one gram and see you friend fry hard.. fun times

I recently discovered the power of the effects of a low .5 gram dose of psilocybin, i had never taken under 3.5 grams and its been years since i've had any, so to acclimate myself i decided to take .5 grams and see what happened and i must say i was fucking blown away by the effects, it seemed almost as powerful as the 3.5 gram doses i had taken previously just not as clear...

Take the right shroom the right way and 1gm can send you into colors.some exotic shrooms comtain 2mg of psilocin per 100gr of shroom..that and get hefty...

My only advise is to make sure you have the time. The trip (if it is good shit) will be about eight hours. Just relax, you are totally safe. Seriously, it is safer than drinking a case of beer. You will be fine. You are not in danger.

Some things that will help..

- look at my avi

- try smiling.. odds are, you'll end up finding something funny.

- don't focus on the bad thoughts. Once the shrooms are down the hatch, you just have to trust they won't harm you. They really won't, you'll be safe

- drink some alcohol if all else fails. never tried xanax on shrooms, I'm sure it would help. But I wouldn't want the shroom effects to go. 2 beers will NOT take away from the trip

- mellow music

- walking around.. going somewhere else.. I like to wiggle around.. Like move my arms and legs everywhere lol. It helps get the good "energy" flowing

- this is the one I follow most of the time and it usually works.. Just go on with your day. Ignore the drug, pretend you didn't take it. You're not gonna be thinking bad thoughts since you won't be worrying.. then soon enough, you'll be cracking up at something.

listen to your favorite music album that makes you happy and pumped that or eat em and smoke 3 bowls of some funky and wait for everything to get funny

I always get a little antsy in my pantsys after I first dose and when it starts to come up, but seriously once that body buzz hits I forget all about it and I really dont care anymore.

I am pretty sure the mushrooms i had were "Thai Koh Samui super strain" from hawk eye as they are pretty much the only mushrooms we have around here, i had always tripped bawls before but i assumed that was because of the dosage, but damn did that tiny amount blow me away. http://www.thehawkseye.com/thaikss/thaikss.html

Unwelcome Revelation, which can result in great and permanent harm.
