what can i take with acid to prevent a bad trip? I never triped before and the only thing i can get is acid.
There's no drug that can prevent a bad trip, but if you're in a stable state of mind (e.g., you're not depressed/angry) and you maintain a good environment (stay with close, sober, experienced friends and away from any authority figures), you'll be fine. However, if you do start wigging, I'd start with 2-3 mg's Xanax (chewed to quicken onset)...if that doesn't abort the trip within 1-2 hours, it would be a good idea to have a responsible person handy to call EMS; at that point, you'll probably be facing a stomach pump /w charcoal and a Thorazine injection...
there are certain prescription drugs that are relatives of thorazine that you can take, but that could be a real hassle to get, and from reading leary apparently that takes u down very fast, but ive never tried that myself.
Xanax is the weakest (besides fastest on-setting and most common) relative of Thorazine...Valium can also be used, but since it has a slower on-set I would recommend Xanax in it's place. If neither of those work, then Risperodol (or Halidol, if Risp isn't handy) is recommended, but since both of these are extremely uncommon for the recreational user and both are inferior to... ...Thorazine, which is used in most cases where the victim becomes violent and is a threat to self or others; generally it's mainlined in several small doses until the patient becomes unable to physically move, which can cause the user (in cases where they're not aware that they're being treated) to believe they're dying, leaving psychological scarring for months or years after the incident... ...I recommend Xanax.
The one thing that will prevent a bad trip is adequate preparation. That includes carefully considering your set and setting. To put it in few words, your general mindset, past experiences, present location, and people you are with will profoundly influence your trip. If any of these things are less than ideal, you should not trip. The best preparation for a session, by far, is meditation. It is generally a very bad idea to try to "abort" a trip on LSD. In most cases it will only complicate the situation and elevate anxiety, paranoid thoughts, and negative thought loops. Don't try to abort an acid trip. That is almost a surefire way for flashbacks and serious emotional distress. What you need to do in a bad situation is to simply calm yourself, remind yourself that you're under the influence of a drug and it will be over in a couple of hours. If you do have a bad trip, it is extremely important to recognize why it happened--there is always a reason that can be pinpointed and learned from. You should really research LSD thoroughly before you try it. Thinking you can take some medication to ensure a good trip is just bad thinking. You need to prepare yourself mentally. Adding more drugs to the equation can never help you. If you have any reservations about tripping, don't do it. Wait until you're prepared mentally for the journey, or don't do it at all. Set and setting.
your worrying too much about having a bad trip which often leads to a bad trip, there is no way to "abort" a trip, but meds such as xanax, valium, thorazine, and other downers can help to calm you down and relax the trip.
I'd recommend being studied up on Erowid's Psychedelics Crisis FAQ...betweeen this and some high-school-level CPR/heimlich training you may be of some extremely well-needed help in the case of an emergency. Being well versed on such issues is quite necessary with such dangerous "sports" as psychonautics...as I like to say: "You think this a game? I don't see any reset switch."
be a man/woman like we were, before you could go on the internet and ask other people what synthetic drug you can taake to avoid a bad trip....its not that simple....get the real thing and you will know that nothing can prevent what happens, you will be facing yourself and it will go like you are/its meant to. Its no joke.
Very true, and while I agree to some extent, a person may experience a "breaking point" where they may fatally injure themselves or others...at this point it would be good to take them down. I'm not sure how they do it in "Angkor Wat", but generally mind expansion only goes as far as that... the mind. Realizing hallucinations in a way that is either harmful or fatal to others can be seriously dangerous and anyone attempting to realize such delusional states of mind should be stopped at all costs. @2ces: BTW, I do hope to experiment with the compound chloral palmeate someday, preferably with multiple shots under the influence of long-lasting drugs such as bromo or DOx, to better understand something that most patients aren't willing to reveal...
I don't know what palmeate really means, but I'm pretty sure you're talking about chlorpromazine (thorazine) since that's what we were talking about earlier in the thread. Apparently the way it aborts the trip isn't too fun, but I don't know from experience. Afterwards you sleep for a while too.
Chloral Palmeate is (AFAIK) the pill version of chlorpromazine...I don't exactly trust any of my friends to hit me with a needle. *lol*
