I couldn't agree more. I was never *that* scared of psychedelics until my huge mushroom dose. Psychedelics should definitely be treated with immense respect.

Recently smoked changa for the first time and on my first session I had the most beautiful and amazing experience ever. Afterwards I instantly knew that I needed to see more. So I did some yoga and workout and two hours later i'm sitting there with the bong with the bowl packed almost shaking, knowing that this trip will be far from beautiful. I went in with courage and faced an extremely dark journey. Today I am very thankful for this experience, It taught me so much, i'm fucking thankful for everything now :) As you were saying, trust your heart-mind guys and you will find true happiness.

Truly the only danger of psychedelics is being completely deconditioned and becoming human again, obviously I'm speaking ironically when I say "danger." Obviously people who are enslaved by their cultural conditioning will consider someone crazy who has any kind of awakening, whether it's induced by psychedelics, meditation etc. when someone is able to deconstruct the boundaries of civilization and live beyond what they've been limited to, those who are still within those boundaries will call them crazy. And those who create those boundaries are the ones who made psychedelics illegal.

I adamantly believe that meditation is the key to have mostly good psychedelic trips. Not only meditation immediately preceding and during the trip, but for years prior. I've had many, many trips...and the only bad one was when I tripped in public where there wasn't supposed to be anyone, and a random group of people came up from behind and stood 30 feet behind me, laughing and talking for an hour. I didn't know who they were or what they wanted or why of all places they sat behind me, so I naturally freaked out and it became a nearly PTSD inducing trip. Aside from that, trips have gotten dark, but in ways that were showing me my faults very bluntly and chastising me for finding clever ways to avoid and ignore my problems. They may have been dark, but the end result was positive and made me a better person. So....meditate, meditate, meditate, and do not trip anywhere where there is even a remote chance of your environment changing beyond your control, such as by people you don't know approaching you. Psychedelics should be feared in the same way Christians fear God.

I went on a very fast roller coaster for the first time in my life yesterday. No, roller coaster is not a slang term for a psychedelic trip, but I can use the experience I had with the coaster as a metaphor for psychedelics. I experienced the most worry and doubt while waiting in line and my ego would tell me things about my heart deformity like, "What if you have a heart attack? There are no paramedics." I was honestly super anxious and worried, but when I got on the ride and strapped myself in, I knew that there was no turning back. As it rose into the air to shoot off on the huge drop and to flip me backwards as was calm. The anxiousness went away because I knew that I would be OK. Long story short, it felt like a psychedelic trip. It was so fast I didn't know what had happened, but I was aware the whole time. I looked as if I had some form of Vietnam flashback at the end of the ride because of it happening so fast. 😆

Getting past that fear is all part of the learning and growth that comes with psychedelics, pushing yourself into something that is as mysterious and strange as psychedelics is a scary thought for some so getting past that and just trying them is kind of like the start of the massive journey and a key step in self improvement I reckon

My only fear comes from an experience I had when I was younger with LSD. I watched a freind go into a complete psychotic episode and had to be hogtied and taken away to the hospital. It was real LSD as we all took the same thing, but it was rumored that while it was being laid on paper it had somehow been soaked on one corner by LSD. You could definitely see a slight stain on 3 of the corner hits. He took 2 of those and I took one. Everyone else took one that had no stain. I never tripped so hard in my life. Plus, having to watch him flip around screaming for hours was no fun. I still trip and I still love it, but even though that happened around 25 years ago it still enters my mind every single time I take any psychedelics.

Earlier in the week I started my first attempt, with about a 3g dose of cubensis.. and oddly got basically nothing, which was rather disappointing.. Then near the end of the week, I tried again, with a 4.25g dose, this time I started getting nauseous, but still no open-eye visuals.. and I kinda got hung-up on my disappointment and nausea way more than I should have let it bother me, which I think might have been my ego resisting.. However this time there WAS something happening, because I did see some closed eye visuals.. just weak fractals I couldn't quite focus on.. So maybe the mushrooms are just weak, or I require a higher dose.. lol But my main fear now is the nausea/feeling of being ill, really hope I can find a way to overcome or get past that.

A lot of people say things like "psychedelics aren't for everyone" and "you'll know when you're ready". How do you distinguish between the anxiety and resistance before a first trip versus being in a mental state that is inappropriate to be using psychedelics?
@Emerald081

Thats a pretty hard question actually, but i would say you need to 1. Read/watch a bunch videos like this to at least have an idea of what to expect. 2. Have a trip sitter, take it in a safe, calm place at a time when you dont have anything to do. Thats about it. Yes, its very possible that you will still be nervous, the best you can do is to just dont think about it. You simply cannot make sure that your trip is gonna be happy and peaceful, but you dont have to. Thats not the point of a trip. Just let it happen. And yes, thats scary but thats a part of it. Accept it. If you do the 2 things i said above its realy unlikely that it will have a negative affect (long term wise) on you. Even if you get a full-on bad trip. You can learn a lot from those too. Also "you'll know when you're ready" is kind of an idealistic and misleading thing to say, in my experience its more like you "stumble upon" your first trip then being hit by a light, divine feeling that tells you are ready. Thats not realy how it works, so dont expect that to happen.

If you can calm yourself down without ignoring the reality of what the trip does to you you're probably fine. The key is to accept anything the trip shows you, processing the validity of knowledge gained from a trip isn't something you should worry about in the moment. Just let the ideas flow no matter how hard they might be; you can choose to accept or deny them once you're sober.

i want to try psychedelics because i heard they can help "curing" anxiety... but because i have anxiety, i am really scared of what can go bad. One of the things caused by this anxiety is the fear of everything that's not "normal", so the hallucinations can cause panic, and the fear of throwing up too, because every drug that i ever took got me a leat unconfortable, and the stress makes it even worse... and I think a panic attack on LSD is not the most pleasant experience! did someone already try here?

I would suggest a small dose of shrooms for your first trip. Take 2 of your best friends and 0,75-1,5g of shrooms, roll 2 joints and just watch something nice like a Disney movie like pocahontas and listen to some music. Being afraid of what might come is completely normal but keep in mind to let everything happen what the shrooms want to show you. A trip only lasts for about 4 hours, so enjoy it I promise it is beautiful.

But as far as anxiety, it kinda cures it. I have both depression and anxiety and they are almost gone, there will be times when it sometimes comes back, but it isn’t as strong as it used to be

Man since i started making money from trading ive been really scared about being kidnapped and tortured by gangsters for a randsome. My last lsd trip i felt like i was having to fight my fear of it. It didnt get too intense as i was trying to keep my ego in check but honestly it didnt feel like it helped at all and maybe even made it worse because i was scared for hours. I didnt even do that much probably 125ug. Im scared that this will happen again on a bigger dose and on a bigger level. I feel like i still have so much to heal and really want to receive the benefits as i had done years ago when i could easily munch on 4 grams of dried shrooms and only be a little nervous beforehand. What do you guys think is this some kind of psychosis? How can i overcome this fear without getting psychosis and be scared shitless for hours

Hey Tom, I've had a few psychedelics trips before ranging from 2cb and acid to life changing trips on DMT. This summer I started developing a panic disorder from lack of sleep and being out partying too much and now I'm afraid that my anxiety may increase significantly if I have another psychedelic trip, should I be worried? I really want to trip again but I don't want my anxiety to get progressively worse.

personally I've never had any sort or developing of a disorder, but one psychedelic that might help you get into a positive mind set and help you move forward with your issues is taking pure MDMA that has been tested ( if you can get it) this may help you. Something else to remember is mind, body and soul are all connected as we know. when take care of all 3 of these essentials by working out, eating right and meditation it frees the mind and allows you to progress in "life". hopefully this helped

If you have done all the research on psychedelics, read a bunch of stories and experiences, i'd say you should be at least a little bit afraid. Because there are true risks (like having them trigger mental illness or you physically hurting yourself or someone else), but there are also other kinds of risks. I'll use LSD for an example... Say you're having a bad trip. Time means nothing. You measure the passage of time in thoughts... Which can loop for hours (it is rare though, but can happen). You can make yourself truly believe, with the entirety of your being that the moment or the situation you're in at the very moment (say, walking down a path (literally, like taking a walk through a park or something)) is the only thing that has ever existed, and ever will. That's the only reality you know of. You'll remember your name (if you didn't take a heroic dose) and maybe some general things, but you will feel the moment is your entire reality. And that can be amazing if the moment is positive. But what if you feel that two of your mates are conspiring against you... And that lasts an eternity. Also change. I've heard some people... have forgot what the real world looked like and thought that what they see now could go on forever and they'd never know. But they so badly wanted things to be back to as they were. But the line between reality and the trip could not be drawn. These are just some examples of bad experiences. Of course, you could have the most amazing experience you have ever or will ever have in your life. Still, I'd be at least a tiny bit afraid if I were going to take a psychedelic.

Yeah, i agree on that) I've heard a lot of stories. And as far as i figured out for myself, one should ALWAYS mind set & setting and have a lot of time for the experience to go smoothly from start to finish. Thanks for your reply) Best of all to you!

old enough to be counted as an adult as in fully grown but everyone has to know that for themselves if they are ready or not in my opinion

I would say at the very least 21. And that's assuming you've done the foundation of self-inquiry and learned basic principles of ego and non-duality. Psychedelics are very emotionally draining and can rip your ego to absolute shreds, so it's handy to know the self-defense mechanisms the ego throws your way so you don't freak out too much.

Start off small (half-normal-dose), meditation and no expectations. The more you think and research and such and such the more thoughts will fill your mind and effect the experience. Most are amazing experiences its just that we tend to focus on the fears and so on because of our fear-driven society. When you feel great and in a awesome mindset go hard and enjoy the ride, its fun and life changing :) The deeper you go the more you will realize that only Love exists and that we are all one, there is no fear once you get to higher stages of consciousness :)

I've just started to looking into your videos ever since yesterday. And am very excited for every video you post as it provides for a learning experience. I am 19 and wanting to take magic mushrooms for depression,social anxiety disorder and general anxiety disorder. as well as letting go from certain things that are clinging onto me. So I don't have a trip setter however, but should I start from a gram in the right setting? thanks in advance!

I'm not afraid of psychedelics and going through a heroic trip, I've never done any psychedelics except for being a regular pot smoker, I am very very keen on going through hell and facing my deep dark self to become a better person, and I am not scared of going through it, I really intend to go through it, and I have a very philosophical mindset, what's wrong with me?

Well that's because you're being naive and don't understand what's coming haha. Just wait and see when you take your heroic dose for the first time. You won't be as confident or fearless the next time.

The Middle Way Don't just assume that, I know that I'm gonna be scared when I take heroic doses, I'm just not afraid of the fear I guess, that's the only way I can explain it.

"what's wrong with me?" Ego and I don't mean that in a bad way. I wouldn't say that's what's "wrong" with you but it's very easy to say or think that you want to go through a difficult psychedelic ass kicking if you've never experienced true ego loss and vulnerability. It's easy to think all that when your ego is still intact and you don't feel vulnerable. Things that don't seem like a big deal now can seem like the biggest deal when tripping. When we're not in that state we tend to overestimate how much we can really handle when in it.

Captain Deo Hmmm I've never heard of anyone having that kind of analysis of the human species and the planet while on just weed. Even LSD didn't do that for me, mushrooms however were much more about planetary destiny and the end of time and the future of the species etc. You can definitely trip quite well from cannabis but it's really really far from mushrooms in particular I'd say. Overall I'd say even LSD is closer to weed than weed is to mushrooms because mushrooms and DMT are actually something quite different from the "average" psychedelic. Mushrooms are just so incredibly alien and humorous and unexpected whereas LSD trips seem to be more centered around energies and vibrations/chakras and perception but mushrooms seem more like traveling and going to higher dimensions and bringing back knowledge from those higher dimensions to share with the rest of the tribe (humanity). What I'd do if I were you is go to the PsychonautWiki site and read the subjective effects for psilocin (mushrooms) and you can even read the subjective effects of cannabis and compare the two. There is no website out there that is as accurate or goes into as much detail as psychonautwiki, I really wish that site existed when I first got into psychs. Also there's a really good video here on KZbin where philosopher Terence McKenna describes the general difference between LSD, DMT, mushrooms and ayahuasca so i would definitely watch that if I were you because he most definitely knows what he's talking about and I have never seen anyone explain psilocybin mushrooms as well as he did in that video.
